Thanks, Ted.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. And, that's why I have this little
twinge of guilt for not using a tripod more often. I know it ends up
producing better photos, and forces you to be more deliberative in your
composition. And, yet ... when I shoot off a tripod, you might as well
be telling a kid he has to brush his teeth before he can watch his
favorite TV show.
It's something I really need to work more on. I actually used one a
whole lot more when I shot with my old Olympus, since I had to wait so
long for the shot to be written to the media card. But, ever since I've
had my K-x, it's like I can't be bothered.
I'm just going to have to make more of an effort to use it more often.
I think I'm a hand-held shooter by temperament, but that I'm missing out
on some opportunities for better shots by not exercising more patience.
Thanks again,
Walt

A tripod forces you to slow down, compose more
carefully, and pay more attention to you exposure as well as improving overall
image sharpness. This is a shooting style that takes effort to adopt but is
worth it in the long run.
