Hold your camera to your eye with your right hand. The next vibration and shake reduction technique is called the gun holder. The gun here is nothing but your camera. This technique is a bit difficult (for me) to use because it is difficult to maintain for a long span of time.īut obviously, something hard for me doesn’t mean it’s hard for you too, so give it a try.įor this technique you need to hold your camera like a gun in your hand. To get an even better grip, you can press your elbows towards your chest for increased stability. Just pull your elbows in toward your body and let them rest against your chest. Tucking your elbows towards your body help. Locking elbows is a tip that professionals have been using for quite some time. Thus, try to place the camera closer to your body while capturing images, which will make you face lesser gravitational force making a much steadier position. When you hold the camera in your hands, your body becomes the center of gravity as opposed to the camera. This helps in holding the camera with a much better grip which helps in reducing any kind of shaking. As discussed above for a DSLR, you should try keeping your arm close to your body, keeping the right hand on the grip and the left hand on the lens.

One of the most important facets of photography is understanding the camera placement.

If you keep your legs together, the position actually makes your body sway and bobble, which can result in shakes. Doing so helps your body to be in the perfect posture. This is an essential pose that most professional photographers follow.
