Using the self timer is good, but often it can be tricky and time consuming to setup. With the ability of digital cameras to accept infrared shutter releases, even tripod shake can be a thing of the past. Additionally, if you find yourself using a medium format SLR with a substantial mirror slap, goo grip can help get handheld shutter speeds down to 1/30 and still be sharp. Or, if mounted to a tripod and using a long exposure, open the shutter with a cable release while keeping something dark in front of the lens. When the exposure is due for completion put the dark object/cloth back in fron of the lens and then close the shutter. A cable release is vital for sharp tripod work.

Aperture is a good point to bring up when discussing overall sharpness in images. I felt that the topic of aperture was too imense a topic to list with these easier fixes. I will be posting a longer article about aperture in general in the near future. It deserves to be looked into very deeply. Mark,

One thing many people do not realize is that small apertures will actually create softer images due to diffraction. In general using anything smaller than f/11 will result in softer images.
