I did not use a tri-pod. My question is this, If I had used a tri-pod would the snow still look like streaks or would it just be flakes. In other words was all the streaking caused by camera movement or the movement of the snow?


Definitely caused by the slow shutter speed. It would seem to me with that much white in the background the camera would have shot at a faster speed but it did what it did, this winter try shooting on TV, you will get better results if you are looking to freeze the snow.

Rbo......

Shutter speed is too slow... The tree in right is not streaked...

The golden rule of thumb, for any shot which has a shutter speed below 1/length of lens is... Use a tripod

I know, there will be arguments for this who say many other things.... BUT, if you want sharp, us tripod

Had an old dear friend once said... "If it ain't sharp, It ain't Shxx" ha ha ha

Now, yes there are times when 'blurry' is desired... but, for me, I want 'sharp on a tripod'

It looks like you're the one who dragged up this 10 year old thread where the OP is long gone. I don't understand why people do this. Then others comment who don't realize it's a zombie thread.
