Failing this, try and find a wall to sit your camera on and make the camera as stable as possible. Set it to timer mode and compose the shot, then press the trigger and don't touch until the photo has been taken. You could also try reading the ultimate exposure computer

Just don't try to take the monopod up the Stratosphere. Security considered it a weapon! What aperture values, shutter speed and ISO speeds are best for this? Should i shoot in Aperture Priotity (Av) of Shutter Priority (Tv) mode? Sheri Chander

SuzyView Cream of the Crop  More info | Nov 03, 2006 16:11 | #5 If you don't have a tripod, put the camera on your car with a bag to set it on. Put it on 1 second, at least shutter. Then play with it. I would normally use a tripod and a release. Self-timer may work as well. Suzie - Still Speaking Canonese!

You could also try reading the ultimate exposure computer that will explain and give a number of exposure settings. Good luck.
