The article that I read, was about shooting with a handheld camcorder. You can read the article here. A tripod is always good for when you aren’t shooting while moving around and trying to follow your people around. You’re always going to have a little bit of a shake when you are filming with a handheld, but to reduce the amount of excessive movement you can keep your hands steady on the camera with both hands. You should keep a wide stance, keep your lens wide and don’t zoom in. There are many more tips you can use.
This will come in handy for video production because I want to film my documentary without a tripod and this will really help me. I think others can use it because if anyone else wanted to film handheld this will help them.
