What is a "handheld camera"?
A handheld camera is a camera that is held and operated directly by the photographer or filmmaker without the use of a tripod or other support. It allows for greater mobility and flexibility, enabling the user to move freely and capture spontaneous or dynamic shots. Handheld cameras are commonly used for their ease of use in various shooting conditions, such as on the move, in tight spaces, or during live events. While handheld operation can sometimes lead to camera shake, many modern cameras have built-in stabilization features to help reduce this effect and produce clearer images or smoother video.
