Hints for Better Shooting
U-1
Getting Stable Pictures
Take a good posture for shooting |U-11
For hand-held shots, it is important to hold the
recorder properly.
• Hold the recorder firmly and secure it with the
grip belt so that you can easily manipulate the
recorder with your thumb.
• Place your right elbow firmly against your side.
• Place your left hand under the recorder to
support it. When adjusting the focus manually,
make sure the recorder does not move.
• Stand opposite to the subject and let your feet
take a comfortable stance.
• Place your eye firmly against the viewfinder
eyecup.
• Try to keep both eyes open.
• Breathe gently.
Use a tripod
If you have a tripod for a still camera, it can also
be used with the recorder. If a tripod is not
available, try placing the recorder on a tabletop or
any other flat surface of suitable height.
Keep the horizontal place level |U-2|
The horizontal place can be easily determined by
using the viewfinder frame as a reference.
