What Causes Photos To Be Blurry

Visual Storytelling with Gary Fernon

Welcome to the Visual Storytelling podcast. Let’s discuss what causes photos to be blurry.

Photos can be blurry due to various reasons:

1. Camera Shake.

2. Low Light.

3. Auto-Focus Errors.

4. Motion Blur.

5. Shutter Speed.

6. Lens Quality.

7. Depth of Field.

8. ISO Settings.

9. Aperture Size.

10. Camera Settings.

11. Vibration or Wind.

12. Subject Movement.

13. Dirty Sensor.

14. Lens Stabilisation.

15. Improper Focusing Technique.

16. Software Processing.

17. Optical Aberrations.

18. Long Exposure.

19. Macro Photography; and

20. Outdated Equipment.

Addressing these factors through proper technique, equipment, and settings can help reduce or eliminate blur in photos. A number of the causes I’ve mentioned I explored in more depth in episode 18, so be sure to check that episode out if you’d like to learn more.
