How to Hold the Camera

Hold the camera with both hands, keep your arms still at your side, and stand with your feet shoulder width apart.

Hold the camera firmly by wrapping your right hand around the camera grip.

Support the lens from below with your left hand.

Do not cover the AF assist light (A) or microphone (B) with your fingers or other objects.

Do not cover the fan inlet (C) and fan outlet (D) of the cooling fan with your hand, etc.
