I haven't been able to tell with most of my photos that I see camera shake blur, though just about everything I've shot so far has been handheld. Take a picture with the shutter speed at double and quadruple the focal length ( with a 50mm lens, 1/30 and 1/15 of a second). Do it handheld, and don't take any precautions about the slow speed. You'll see for yourself what camera shake looks like. William Robb
