Camera shake and shutter speed
Preventing camera shake is crucial when taking photographs. In general,
you should set the shutter speed faster than ‘1/focal length of your lens’
sec. (Example: when using a 50mm lens, set the shutter speed faster
than 1/50 sec.) Use of a tripod is recommended for shooting at slower
shutter speeds.
NOTE: Composing frame
The frame coverage of the finder of this camera is approximately 90% of
the actual exposed frame on the film. Therefore, the actual exposed
frame is somewhat larger than the image you see through the viewfinder.
Note that the edges of a negative film are partially cropped by most labs.
