COMMON PHOTO PROBLEMS SOLVED
C
amera shake is one of the
biggest bugbears for
photographers. It happens
when the camera moves
during the exposure, so it’s closely tied
to shutter speed. The slower the shutter
speed, the greater the danger of shake.
It’s also related to the focal length of
your lens – telephoto lenses magnify
any shake to make it appear a whole lot
worse..
You need to watch out for camera
shake when you’re shooting indoors or
in low light, because this is when the
camera will have to use a slower shutter
speed. Normally, you’d counteract this
by increasing the camera’s ISO setting
to force the shutter speed back up
again, and that’s what we should have
done here. Instead, we used a low ISO
which gave a shutter speed of just 0.4
sec – no wonder the details are blurred!Reduce blur from

If you take a photo that’s spoiled by camera shake,
the new Shake Reduction tool could fix it

Shake Regions explained
The first thing you’ll notice is the default ‘Shake
Region’, the area of the image analyzed for movement.
This is used to work out the shake correction needed, which
is then applied to the whole image. You move the Shake
Region to a more suitable location by dragging the centre.1
Where to find Shake Reduction
The Shake Reduction tools are on the Enhance menu,
and you can use them in both the Quick and Expert
modes. The top section of this menu is where you’ll find
all the ‘Auto’ options, but you get much more control if you
choose the manual Shake Reduction option further down.BEFORE
