Avoiding camera shake
Camera shake refers to the effect of images appearing blurred or out of focus because the camera moved
when the picture was taken. This is particularly likely to occur at slow shutter speeds and in macro shots.
This applies particularly to macro shots with high magnifications, where the subject's depth of field is
extremely shallow, and even the slight camera movement when the shutter release button is pressed can
have a large impact on the image.
In situations of this sort, place the camera on a stable surface to take the shot. Even greater stability can be
achieved by using the self-timer (Æ p.58) so that the camera does not move when the shutter release
button is pressed.
