Holding the camera

Hold the camera correctly and be careful not to block the AF illuminator or flash with the

camera strap or your fingers.

NOTE: The longer the focal length, the greater the potential for the effects of camera shake.

To avoid movement make sure you are holding the camera properly with both hands.
