steadily with both hands. Use the first finger of your right hand to press the shutter. Stand on solid ground. Do not move or run when pressing the shutter. Even tiny movements will result in fuzzy photos.

5.Why would I get some blurry areas in a photo?

You may have covered part of the lens when taking the photo. Or there may be some grease on the lens. Remove it with a dry and soft cloth.

6.Can I take a photo of the Sun?

DO NOT point your camera directly to strong light sources such as the Sun as it may damage the CMOS image sensor inside the camera. If you do so, the background will be too dark and you see nothing in the photo.

7.Why would image colors change if I take photos indoor?

The use of light bulbs indoor will affect the image colors you see on photos. To improve the situation, use daylight bulbs or fluorescent lamps instead.

8.How should I position my camera to get good quality images?

Keep the viewfinder horizontal as much as possible. Try to kneel down if necessary.

9.Why would I get horizontal, black stripes in photos taken abroad?

The camera is set to your country's AC mains frequency (e.g. 60Hz for US). If you take photos under an electric light source in another country with a different frequency (e.g. 50Hz), you will get horizontal, black stripes in those photos, due to incorrect mains frequency. There will be no problems when taking photos under sunlight.

10.Can I use the camera when it is raining?

No, DO NOT use the camera under rain since the camera is not water-resistant. Water drops may get inside the camera and damage the parts.
