[QUOTE="Silversnapper, post: 831293, member: 52909"] Many thanks [USER=50197]@Clovishound[/USER], I completely missed that symbol :sleep: and I did RTFM. I have been trying to address my shaky hand problem as mentioned at #13 and I am trialling a method I first learned about some 20 years ago from my inspiration at that time, which is using a thin pole as a support in conjunction with an L bracket on the camera. The idea is to clasp the pole and the bracket handle together as this picture shows and it really does add some stability. Of course it has it's disadvantages but hey, if it keeps me shooting it can't be all that bad. :) [ATTACH type="full" alt="Beanpole.jpg"]417591[/ATTACH] BTW, this isn't me and I'm sure Brian won't mind me using this photo of him in action.
