• To avoid camera shake, hold it with both 
hands keeping your arms close to your 
body while standing with your feet slightly 
apart.
 
• Do not touch the lens.
 
• Do not block the microphone when 
recording motion pictures.
 
• Do not put your hands over the light-
emitting area of the flash or look at it from

move at the moment the shutter button is
