When using slow shutter speeds it is important to minimise
or illuminate all camera movement as this will blur the image. A photograph of
a night city scape will only impress the viewer if the lines are crisp and
sharp. The slow release image of moving water creating a soft almost fluffy
effect in the water itself only works when contrasted against the sharp clear
image of the rocks, trees or pier pylon.
Using a tripod is essential. Equally important is the use of
a timer or remote control.
Manually depressing the shutter release button will cause
the camera to move, even if the photographer has the dexterity of a brain
surgeon. The movement might only be slight and everything might look clear on
the playback screen but print it or upload it onto a computer and the clarity
will not be there.
