You will have to use some kind of stabilizing equipments for avoiding the blurred effect in most of other types of cameras. Tripods of the film cameras were bulky and difficult to carry around but the digital camera is so light so that there are small tripods that can be set on tables, walls and some can even fit in your pockets. To achieve a completely blur free shot like image 2, using the self timer function cuts out the potential for camera shake at the point the photograph is taken.

The camera indicators will respond with flashing red dot changing the unblinking green dot in the view finder. If there isn’t a static green dot, don’t take the picture.
