Overview
An image with camera shake is easily confused with out-of-focus one. Camera shaking will produce an overlapping or blurred image.
When the image is magnified and observed, a subtle camera shake may produce a large amount of blur.
Tips
1. Compose and hold the camera to minimize camera shake.
To obtain sharp images, hold the camera still to minimize camera shake.
1-1. Wrap your right hand around the camera grip firmly.
1-2. Hold the lens bottom with your left hand.
1-3. Rest your hand’s right index finger lightly on the shutter button.
1-4. Press your arms and elbows lightly against the front of your body.
1-5. To maintain a stable stance, place one foot slightly ahead of the other.
1-6. Press the camera against your face and look through the viewfinder.
2. When possible, try to provide yourself or the camera extra support.
3. When using a zoom lens, shoot at wide angle and move closer to the subject.
Moving the zoom control towards telephoto can cause camera shake when using slower shutter speeds. So it is recommended to move closer to the subject and zoom towards the wide angle end of the lens to prevent camera shake.
4. Choose a higher shutter speed.
Slower shutter speeds may produce more camera shake.
It is better to shoot under bright situations or to choose a brighter lens with a large aperture to enable higher shutter speeds for less camera shake.
