[QUOTE="snaphappy, post: 303010, member: 12198"] Yes Pretzel by forcing myself to use the tripod that day I realized I could leave the swivel and ball head slightly loose so that I could move to capture the frustrating little birds that don't stay still for ben a second :) The birds were all so far away that I was using my Tamron and handheld for me is impossible with the weight and my little arms. So far I've really only used my tripod for my poor attempts at macro and then for my long exposure night photos so I've never attempted to leave anything loose on my tripod. Once I realized and started leaving it slightly loose it sure made things easier :) I definitely need to practice more with using the tripod because it is helpful [/QUOTE]
