📷 Another blurry photo? Before you delete it — zoom in. In this episode I walk through the three types of blurry photo — camera shake, subject motion, and focus blur — how to diagnose which one you've got, and exactly what to change to stop it happening again.
What We Cover
Diagnose First — What Kind of Blurry Are You Looking At? Three types, how to tell them apart, and why getting the diagnosis right matters
Camera Shake Blur — Your Shutter Speed Is the Problem. The 1-over-focal-length rule, the 1/60th floor, and how to use EXIF data to find the answer
Subject Motion Blur — Something Moved While the Shutter Was Open. Why you often need to go faster than you'd expect
Focus Blur — Your Camera Focused on the Wrong Thing. Single-point autofocus and the half-press that locks it in
Check How You're Holding Your Camera. Technique makes a bigger difference than most people realise
Check Your Shutter Speed First, Every Time. The one setting that fixes two of the three types
Auto ISO — Let the Camera Help You Get a Sharper Photo. And why a noisy photo always beats a blurry one
