Holding the Camera Correctly Your images will not come out clearly if you move the camera when you press the Horizontal Vertical shutter button. When pressing the shutter button, be sure to hold the camera as shown in the illustration near by, and keep it still by pressing your arms firmly against your sides as you shoot. Holding the camera still, carefully press the shutter button and take care to avoid all movement as the shutter releases and for a few moments after it releases. This is especially important when available lighting is low, which slows down the shutter speed. IMPORTANT! • Never touch the lens-barrel unit, except for cleaning. Never hold the camera by the lens when aiming it or transporting it. NOTE • Take care that your fingers and the strap do not cover any of the areas indicated in Strap the illustration. • To protect against accidentally dropping the camera, attach the strap and make sure Microphone it is around your neck while you are operating the camera. • Never swing the camera around by its strap. Flash • The supplied strap is intended for use with this camera only. Never use it for any other purpose. • When the "Auto Rotate" setting is turned Lens Front lamp on, the camera will detect whether it is being held vertically or horizontally when a snapshot image is shot. When you display an image shot with the camera held vertically, the image is rotated automatically 90 degrees when displayed on the monitor screen (page 148). 25 Quick Start Basics
