Camera skills Sharper shots

Use IS and the self-timer to avoid the shakes

Using an image-stabilised lens or camera is a huge benefit for creating sharper shots when you’re shooting without the aid of a tripod. To make the most of it, use it in combination with your camera’s self-timer function. By using the two-second option, you’ll have time to properly support and steady the camera once you’ve pressed the shutter release button to trigger the countdown.

Stable manners Avoid jerking the camera and get sharper results by combining the self-timer with IS.
