Hold the camera steady.
As you look through the viewfinder, use your left hand
to cradle the camera, with your fingers wrapped around the lens
and your thumb beside the focus lock button ®, while your
elbow is propped against your body for support. Use the index
finger of your right hand to depress the shutter release button
and your thumb to wind the film advance lever. Wrap the other
fingers of your right hand around the camera body. You can
adapt this basic posture to both horizontal and vertical format
shooting. To hold the camera steady, it is advisable to lean on or
against something strong and stable (e.g., a wall).
no Compose the picture.
Look through the viewfinder,
compose your photo with the main sub
ject (if possible, a subject’s vertical line)
in the center of the focusing frame to
assure correct focus and exposure.
