| | | Try using a tripod and stopping down the aperture some. The tripod will eliminate motion blur, which could be the source of the out of focus look, and the smaller aperture will keep a wider range of the scene in focus and make everything somewhat sharper as well. Also, 1 and 5 are somewhat underexposed, and 2 doesn't look great because on camera flash pictures almost never look great. 3 is nice, though I can't tell what if anything is in focus, and it could do with some sharpening. I love the composition of 4, though it could also use sharpening. 5 is a great shot besides the exposure, and 6 is a decent shot, though it could use some contrast and sharpening.

| | | Posted by Explorer H 1/30 handheld is not easy. With a tripod, you can close up your aperture, get more in focus, and eliminate camera shake. As long as you have a tripod and the time, you'll get a sharp shot, no matter the amount of light.
| Lower limit is 1/10th of a second but that's hard. At 1/60th it's quite easy if you're bracing it as described. Longer lense barrels are easier to use like this. 1/30th is doable. This method works better than a monopod but obviously not as well as a tripod with a shutter release. The trade off is mobility, speed, and many times a greater range of shooting heights/angles. It gets enough keepers to offset the time wasted with a tripod. Critical low light shots; tripod. Things can and do go wrong with tripods. Heavier or weighted tripods are better. Heavy wood ones are ideal for dampening vibration. Shutter release or use to timer to avoid release shake. Your limited to the height range of the tripod. Tripods are great for smashing up equipment... one tip over is all it takes.

| | | Posted by sQualie I recommend not getting twist lock legs because they get gunked up easily while exploring, flip locks are the best IMO.
| Nothing wrong with a quality tripod with twist locks. They are easy to clean; jamming them wasn't an issue on mine even in mud. The twist locks don't catch on objects... The better tripods should come with a parts manifest. It's important to save that if you need to replace damaged or lost pieces. Wood is heavy but well damp to vibration; a heavy but stable and durable tripod. Carbon fiber is light but dampens vibrations well. Many provide a hook to add weight at the base to increase the inertia it's dampening qualities. Aluminum/metal ones is light but transmit vibrations readily. Composites are yet another choice. Better dampening than metal but heavier than carbon fiber. Go to the best cam shop around, B&H NYNY. Unconditional support and service; they are simply the best. No joke. Ask one of their reps for help, find one there you like and stick with them when you call. Orders ship fast especially if your in the NE. http://www.bhphoto.../2635/N/4075788742 Fed Ex is better than UPS for shipping cam gear especially cams and optics...
