A note about ergonomics

21.8.1

General

To prevent strain-related injuries, it is important that you hold the camera ergonomically
correctly. This section gives advice and examples on how to hold the camera.

Note

• Always tilt the LCD screen to suit your work position.
• When you hold the camera, make sure that you support the optics housing with your

left hand too. This decreases the strain on your right hand.
