Then you didn't try a high enough shutter speed. Go to higher ISO if necessary to get a speed that will shop camera motion. Are you sure it is motion and not a focus problem?

Yes, It is motion. Sometimes it is hard to keep the subject inside the frame.

How to minimize the camera shake

Using a fast shutter speed helps. If you are in the car, put a beanbag over the edge of the car door and rest the camera on that. But - this is why photographers use tripods and monopods.

Thanks for commenting. I've tried with fast shutter speed but not much help. Since I'm using a relatively small camera and no additional lenses, I like to carry only the camera. So, thinking about learn few tips and tricks from professionals.

How to minimize the camera shake

You can make a stringpod. It consists of a piece of rope and a 1/4-20 thread size eyelet bolt. You tie the rope to the eyelet bolt and thread it into the tripod socket on the bottom of the camera. You then step on the other end of the rope and pull up so there's a little tension in the rope. The tension in the rope helps to stabilize the camera. It actually works. You can roll up the rope and put it in your pocket.

Thanks for commenting. I'll try this too.

A monopod is much easier to carry around. Some people carry a small sand or bean bag and stage them for preset shots. Not practical for action shots.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for commenting Chwlo. Yes, I'm thinking about to buy a monomod. But still I like to walk around only with the camera.

How to minimize the camera shake

Hi Guys,

I’m a amateur photographer and using a Canon SX60 Bridge camera. With this camera it is very hard (almost impossible) to take a clear picture when using long zoom. I know I can use a tripod. But it is not practical at all time. What are the techniques I can use to minimize the camera shake ?

Thanks and Best Regards,
/Suneth

Magic hour really is the best. Glad you were there for it. I do agree with Leicaflex on the horizon. And as long as I am "picking nits", I personally would have shifted the composition a tad to the right. The "pole" bulls-eyed in the center bothers me just a bit and the shift would have eliminated the "whatever-it-is" at bottom left. Just my opinion, but really a "not bad" shot.

Thanks for watching and advises. I totally agree with you about pole and horizon.
