We all want sharp shots, but this becomes especially challenging in low light conditions and night photography where the camera will normally increase the exposure time with a slower shutter speed – but this does of course introduce the risk of camera shake.
The traditional solution is to increase the camera’s ISO setting, or sensitivity. This will make it possible to use faster shutter speeds to combat or eliminate any camera shake. But an increasing number of cameras offer an alternative – in-body stabilisation, or ‘IBIS’. This can help to keep your photographs sharp at slower than normal shutter speeds, so that you may not need to increase the ISO setting.
