Holding the Camera
The
electromagnetic
shutter
release
button
has a
short,
soft
touch.
The
shutter
can be released by lightly depressing
the
.shutter
button
to
help prevent
camera
shake.
But, unsteady holding
of
the
camera
will
cause camera shake
in
spite
of
the
electro·
magnetic
shutter
release system.
Therefore, be sure
to
hold
the
camera
firmly. Rest
the
camera on
your
left palm
and
grasp
the
lower
part
of
the
lens focusing ring
between
your
thumb
and
forefinger
or
middle
finger. Hold
the
right
end
of
the
camera
firmly, with
your
right
thumb
behind
the
tip
of
the
film advance lever and
your
right fore-
finger on
the
shutter
button,
while
the
other
fingers hold
the
camera's finger grip.
To reduce camera shake, press
your
left
elbow strongly against
your
body
and look
into
the
viewfinder steadying
the
camera
against
the
forehead.
The
right arm should be
relaxed while holding
the
camera.
When
you
use comparatively slow
shutter
speeds
or
when
you
use
telephoto
lenses, it
is
advisable
to
lean against a wall, a
tree
trunk
or
some
fixed
object
for a steadier grip.
The
above describes
the
fundamentals
of
how
to
hold
the
camera. You may find yourself
the
most
appropriate
grip for
you
and
get ac·
customed
to
it
through
constant
practice.
