Modern day photographers really have become a bunch of whimps. Can't handhold a camera with 25 ISO Film pffft.

I try to hold any camera, from Pocket to SLR, as steady as possible. Actually every different camerac design needs it's own way way of holding. So one schould train a bit with a camera new to oneself. But looking around at people taking photographs rarely ever someone tries to to stabilize a camera with his body. Cameras without an eysight make this difficult, if feasable at all. People seem to have forgotten camera holding by that.
 
And let your breath out slowly, like shooting a rifle.
 
Deep but not excessive inhalation, then slowly exhale 1/2 and hold as you squeeze the trigger was what I was taught in shooting and it seems to work well for cameras too.

Exact same thing I do, Holding the camera chest level with a WLF, I look up at the subject to relax the rest of my body, prerelease the mirror and then shoot. All while doing the breathing exercises. All happens in a sec or two.
 
WLF also offers the chance to use a neck strap to real advantage - pulling down to tension it somewhat.

Thanks for jogging my memory, that is exactly right.
