Eliminating camera movement blur w/o tripod? I purchased a Tamaron 70-300mm lense for my D70 a couple of years ago, specifically to take wildlife shots. I live in the mountains and have a lot of elk and deer coming through. My problem is - when I zoom to 300mm to get the shot (and not spook the wildlife), I often get camera shake blur - I shoot in rugged terrain, so using a tripod is not an option. Is there a way to eliminate the blur w/o a tripod? Thanks

Monopod? They make them that double as walking sticks....at least they provide some extra support, otherwise using a fast shutter speed should help....for those who can afford them, an IS lens...

You could make a Ghettopod which is a rope on a washer. When the camera is held to eyelevel you step on the washer at the end of the rope and it'll help you hold the camera more still than freehand. A Carbon Fibre monopod is lite and would double as a walking stick.

Super ideas! - thanks for your input - I hadn't thought about a monopod and I'll have to try the idea of the ghettopod!
