[* black] When it comes to cameras, even the slightest nudge can take a perfect composition and turn it into a blurry mess. Luckily, there are a number of features and techniques you can utilize to ensure consistent quality throughout your guide photos.
[* black] Turn off any sort of image stabilization on the camera and/or lens when it is mounted on a tripod. This may seem counterintuitive, but those features actually introduce small vibrations that are meant to cancel out a photographer's shaking hands.
[* black] Even pressing the shutter button can cause the camera to shake. Use a remote shutter release or your camera's self-timer to keep yourself from jostling the equipment.
[* black] For the best professional quality studio images, consider using a tethered shooting program, such as Nikon's Camera Control, Canon's EOS Capture, or a third-party application like Sofortbild (Mac only). Connect your camera directly to the computer, have one person model and compose the shot, and have a second person fire the shutter while sitting at a desk.
