This is a question I was asked a while ago. I spoke with a lady that just recently received a new SLR camera (Single lens reflex) one that you can change your lenses and has many options.
Well she went on a holiday, took many photos and once she was home and looked at them on the computer screen she was a bit disappointed as what she thought she captured clearly was actually out of focus. Her subject, which generally was a family member, was in a hazy focus in most of her images. This can be a bit disheartening when your excited to be using a BIG camera for holiday photos.
So let’s look at this a bit more and why this can happen.
A sturdy tripod, one that is not to heavy, yet stable enough to hold your camera steady in varied terrains. One that is easy and fairly quick to set the legs out.
The one on the left is a compact easy traveler yet sturdy and the one on the right is a heavier and larger style tripod.
