Tips and tricks for the perfect selfie with stick

Once you've prepared the selfie stick for taking pictures, you're ready to go. We'll show you a few tricks that will help you take the perfect photo with the selfie stick.

• Of course, you have all creative freedom when taking photos yourself. You can extend the stick as far as you want and thus record almost all setting sizes, for example from close up or from half-way.
• You can also take group pictures better with a selfie stick. Movie scenes are also possible with such a stick.
• You should always take care to keep the stick as still as possible when taking pictures. Because if you start to skid - especially with distant pictures - the picture is blurred.
• If you have the chance, you should stabilize the selfie stick using the palm of your hand or the inside of your forearm.
• For the largest possible selection, you should also take many photos in a row. Since you will usually use the rear camera for the best pictures, this is particularly recommended. You will only see the photos afterwards.
• Test new poses with the selfie stick and let your creativity run wild. Selfie sticks with a swivel head that allow different viewing angles are particularly interesting. With all the fun, however, note the legal limits of a selfie stick.
