ABSTRACT

I want you to use a tripod—all the time. And let's get this out of the way: When I speak in general about a tripod, I mean a firm mount for the camera: a tripod, a dolly, a crane. A tripod makes shots better. Still photographers have known this forever. But ever since Brownies were invented, most folks never think of using a tripod; it's so much easier to hand-hold the camera.
