Improved photo's by a tripod? In my opinion absolutely not. Only when you get exposures longer than 1/80. I really can't see any reason you are getting more creativity by using a tripod. You can't put your tripod everywhere so you could miss the spot where you want to take the picture exactly.

Please explain me why a tripod will improve your photo's? I am curious. With a tripod you almost can't take spontaneous pictures.

A tripod by it's nature will force you to slow down and think about the photo. Sure, it is not for everyone, but I use it for all my landscape photos, even if the light is good enough to handhold. I find I can fine tune compositions much better with a tripod.

If you can't work that one out for your self, no one here can

Get a 400mm or longer lens and take up bird photography. The question will answer itself.

haha...heck, even my 70-200L non-IS was a hit or miss without a tripod and I have pretty steady hands...
