blur - How can I use image stabilization to make a moving subject clear?


Image stabilizers in digital cameras are available for shooting moving/shaking snapshots clearly. The image stabilizers try to focus the moving object and reduce the shaking. However, I have set the image stabilizer to auto, but still I cant get a proper focus on moving object.


Here's an example: blurry picture In the picture there is a blurring effect. I want to reduce that.


Now in such cases, are there any other settings (like ISO) to reduce this shaking effect even further, and get clear snapshot? Or, is this the best the image stabilizers can do?



Answer



Image stabilization aims to fix the problem of a moving camera (camera shake).


Your question and example photo aim to fix the problem of a moving subject.


To reduce blur of a moving subject, you need a shorter shutter speed, or you need to freeze the motion with flash.



If you also have camera shake, then image stabilization will help some. But first make sure you take steps to reduce camera shake. For example see the question "How I could take crisp sharp shots without expensive lens?".
