RECOMMEDED CAMERA HOLDING POSITIONS It is important that the camera be held correctly to minimize camera shake, which can result in blurred pictures. It is suggested that the Pentax 645 be handled for familiarization prior to actual use. Basically, two methods of camera holding as illustrated, are recommended; both involving the secure holding of the camera against the face using both hands. The shutter should always be released gently; a sudden depressing of the shutter may cause an accidental camera shake situation. Stand with both feet firmly placed insuring a strong, steady posture. The left elbow should be drawn in contact with the body. Utilizing a tree, wall, table, etc. to support the body and camera will help in stabilizing grip and balance during picture taking. When employing a slower shutter speed or a telephoto lens, it is highly recommended that a durable tripod and cable release (available optionally) be utilized to prevent camera shake and blurred pictures. 31
