Basic Shooting Operation
Holding the Camera
How you hold the camera is important when taking pictures.
- Hold the camera firmly with both hands.
- Press the shutter release button gently when taking a picture.
INFORMATION
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 50 mm and 1/150 of a second for 100 mm.
A tripod or OPS function should be used for shutter speeds slower than this.
When using a telephoto lens, a tripod that is heavier than the total weight of the camera and lens
is recommended to avoid camera shake.
When using the tripod, do not use the OPS function as the image may be blurred due to the
oscillation of the OPS sensor.
