BASIC IMAGE RECORDING

This section describes the basic procedure for recording an image.

Recording an Image

Aiming the Camera

Use both hands to hold the camera still when shooting an image. Holding the camera with one hand increases the chance of movement, which can blur your images.

• Horizontal	Hold the camera
	still in both
	hands, with your
	arms firmly
	against your
	sides.
• Vertical	When holding
	the camera
	vertically, make
	sure that the
	flash is above
	the lens. Hold
	the camera still
	with both hands.

IMPORTANT!

•Make sure your fingers or the strap does not block the flash or lens.

NOTE

•Your image will be blurred if you move the camera when pressing the shutter release button. Press the shutter release button carefully, taking care that there is no camera movement. This is especially important when available lighting is low, which slows down the shutter speed.
