Correction to my original post: the photo was taken at 1/8 second — not 1/7 second.

If you handheld that shot at 1/8 then from henceforth you shall be called, “The Human Tripod”. πŸ‘‘

LOL. Too funny! I'm honored.Β 

It does seem to be harder to handhold cameras during macro shots β€” I'm not sure why. In any case, I usually try to never go below 1/15 second in any situation with this camera/lens, but there was hardly any light when I took the photo.

In retrospect, it would have been smarter to have taken the shot in M mode at 1/15 second (and still 12,800 ISO) and banked on having to raise the brightness more in post, but I got lucky on this occasion. Or maybe I just should have used an actual tripod!Β
