Reasons your photos are blurry (and what you can do about it)

Do you sometimes get blurred photos from your DSLR but don’t know why? The chances are it’s not the camera – it’s you! Our friends at the Nikon magazine N-Photo came up with top ten tips for banishing blur.

Take the effective focal length of your lens and divide it into 1 to get the minimum safe handheld shutter speed you should use. For example, with a 200mm equivalent lens, you shouldn’t shoot any slower than 1/200sec or you risk camera shake. You might even get some shake at 1/500sec.
