Hold the Camera Still and Level If there is a horizon in the background, use this to level your shot. 4. Use The Tripod They have amazing tripods now that are all different sizes, including small compact ones. You can throw one in your purse or briefcase and balance it on a desk. 5. Battery Life and Memory This is essential to check before going out on a shoot. Make sure your battery is fully charged and that you have a spare with you. Additional memory sticks are also a necessity.
