SHASTA FOOD MKT. 4333 Shasta Way Phona 5568 BY BUD BUESING Just about now untold num bers of new camera owners ore turning In their first roll of film for developing . . . and a great many are going to get disappointed with the results especially with the number of blurred pictures. There'll be a len- 4ni tn Innlf at. that new instru- f ment with sus- ! pitiuii . . . to wonder if it can take really good pictures. It can. Chan ces are the blurring will result from camera movement during exposure. Other causes will be poor forcus or subject move' ment, but camera movement Is the big problem. Keeping that camera steady is just about the first rule of photography. If you own a tripod, you won't have the problem at all. Tri pods were invented because the human hand Is a little shaky and a tripod Is one of your best photographic investments. If you don't have one, try to find a substitute ... a rock or a post, a table or a chair. For hand-held exposures, stand with feet spread wide apart for solid support . . . and dig the camera Into your chest or your cheek. Then hold your breath while you gently squeeze the shutter release. Bring in your first rolls of film for our expert developing this week . . . and we'll be glad to discuss Jhe picture problems that show up. Helping you get better pictures is our business!
