Using my shoulder to reduce camera shake?

Hi,

from my personal experience, I have noticed that shake is very reduced when you put camera's strap around your arm, over the elbow. You hold your breath when pressing shutter button, that works as well. Another technique may be squatting. You squat, rest your elbows on your knees and take the picture. You get sharp image and quite different view than standing up.
DeadJohn wrote "<...> when a tripod's not available". I guess he's talking about museums, churches, stadiums, etc. Consider buying a monopod. Look at all sports photographers - they are using monopods. Churches, museums and other public places don't allow tripods so other people won't trip over your tripod's legs, hurt them self and afterwards sue that public place owner. So then you choose to use monopod and there's no problem.

Good luck :)
