Correct methods of holding the camera
How you hold the camera is important when taking pictures.
- Use your both hands while taking a picture to prevent from the camera shake.
Try to avoid any slight movement while shooting.
To reduce camera shake, support your body or the camera on a solid
object such as a table, tree, or wall.
Although there are individual differences among photographers, the
slowest recommended shutter speed for a handheld camera is generally
1/ (focal lengthx1.5). For example, it is 1/75 of a second for a focal length
of 50mm and 1/150 of a second for 100mm. A tripod or OIS (
) function
should be used for shutter speeds slower than this.
When using the tripod, do not use the OIS (
) function as the image
may be blurred due to the oscillation of the OIS sensor.
To reduce the camera shake while using a telephoto lens, use the tripod
that is heavier than the total weigh of the camera and the lens.
