How To Hold The Camera.5 - Pentax ESPIO Operating Manual

3. HOW TO HOLD THE CAMERA
When shooting, hold the camera securely
with both hands. Keep the camera as still as
possible, and gently depress the shutter re¬
lease button. (If too much force is applied, the
camera is likely to shake, and the picture will
be blurred.) Try to brace your elbows against
your body, or support yourself and the cam¬
era against a stable, stationary object, such as
a wall.
When using the flash with the camera posi¬
tioned vertically, hold the camera so that the
flash is above the lens.
Caution:
Do not hold the zoom lens because it moves
back and forth when zooming.
Note;
• Make sure not to obstruct the autofocus
window, lens, light sensor window or the
built-in flash with your fingers or hair.
