Correct methods of holding the camera

How you hold the camera is important when taking pictures.

- Use your both hands while taking a picture to prevent from the camera shake.

Try to avoid any slight movement while shooting.

● To reduce camera shake, support your body or the camera on a solid

object such as a table, tree, or wall.

● Although there are individual differences among photographers, the

slowest recommended shutter speed for a handheld camera is generally

1/ (focal lengthx1.5). For example, it is 1/75 of a second for a focal length

of 50mm and 1/150 of a second for 100mm. A tripod or OIS (

) function

should be used for shutter speeds slower than this.

● When using the tripod, do not use the OIS (

) function as the image

may be blurred due to the oscillation of the OIS sensor.

● To reduce the camera shake while using a telephoto lens, use the tripod

that is heavier than the total weigh of the camera and the lens.
