Camera shake is something that can happen all too easily but can, almost as easily, be rectified.
Camera shake is obviously caused by the camera moving when the photo is taken it can also be represented in your photographs if the shutter speed used is not fast enough. If a moving subject is moving too quickly to be captured by a slow shutter speed than the image will look blurred and ‘shaky’.
To prevent this use a shutter speed that is appropriate to the focal length. Working out which shutter speed to use is quite simple: if the focal length is 100mm than you should use a shutter speed of at least 1/100th second, if focal length is 200mm than use 1/200th second shutter speed etc.
Preventing camera shake is obviously important when I’m taking Yorkshire equestrianism photography for example but there are other ways of controlling the problem which we will discuss later in the week.
