HANDLING THE CAMERA

Holding the Camera
Hold the camera grip firmly with your right hand, while
supporting the lens with your left hand. Make sure your
fingers are not blocking any of the camera's features. Your
fingers should fit securely around the grip. To hold the camera
steady, keep your elbows at your side and your feet shoulder-
width apart. Always keep the camera strap around your neck
or wrist in the event you accidentally drop it.
Pressing the Shutter Release Button
Press the shutter-release button partway down to activate the
camera's autofocus and auto-exposure systems. Gently,
never with a quick jab, press the shutter-release button all-
the-way down to take the picture.
