Quick Tip #1: Getting sharp images

Posted Jan 30, 2006 by static

A good thing to know...

You should hand-hold a lens only when your shutter speed is at least equal to the focal length in millimeters. That is, a 100 mm lens should not be hand-held below 1/100th of a second; a 500 mm lens should not be hand-held below 1/500th of a second, and so on.

However, to assure razor-sharp images it is recommended that you set your shutter speed even faster to double the focal-length of the lens. That is, a 50 mm lens should not be hand-held below 1/100th of a second; a 100 mm lens should not be hand-held below 1/200th of a second.

It's not rocket science but it is photographic technology. Use this info at your leisure for super-crisp pics!

In my experience, camera

In my experience, camera lenses definitely has an effect on pictures that I took. So what i did was i took several trial shots, did some adjustments to the settings of my camera until I got satisfied with its results. Got happy with it because now I don't need to spend a lot of time editing my pictures just to make it look good.
