Wildcard 6 asked:


I am used to taking pictures of cameras that are SLR types, the lens rest on the left palm in a holding position and the right finger (pointer finger) rest on the shutter. One time i was on a friends wedding my friends laughed on the way i took their pictures using their slim type digital cameras, because i tucked my both arms to avoid disrupted images during pressing the shutter. Am i really making fool out of myself?

      Why does it matter what anyone else thinks? If they are laughing at you, they are probably just insecure with something they are doing so they are directing attention to you. I think it makes sense to keep your arms out of the way of the pictures. However, if it is getting to you, just change your posture.

      The shot have taken pictures lying on something and many of them have taken pictures lying on my stomach on objects or award winning shot happy shutterbugging.
      For the shot have come out great might look funny sometimes but its worth it to take any.

      The most retrograde step made in the whole of photography is the manufacture of tiny, light cameras without a proper viewfinder. It is your friends who are making fools of themselves by holding their tiny objects out at arm’s length and trying to take photograph. Think of levers - which are designed to increase the effort applied at one end by magnifying it at the other and allowing heavier weights to be lifted. Your friends’ arms are lever. Any slight movement will be magnified. I bet they then start posting questions on here or elsewhere asking why their pictures come out blurry. It’s basic physics! You do just the right thing, tucking your arms in and, hopefully, trying to hold your breath, whilst you gently squeeze - not jab - the shutter release.
