User manual

Need to open LCD screen in order to a) power up the camera and b) release or connect the battery

LCD screen hinge feels very flimsy – take good care to never support the camera by the LCD screen

Always hold the camera with two hands – one for support, the other for focusing
Never fold the camera by the LCD screen (it will break off)
It's a good idea to reformat the SD card before a shoot (and definitely if you have an important shoot)
