In low-light situations, a tripod or monopod is used with a camera to reduce or eliminate image blur; However if you travel without such equipment, there's a old trick simple solution the 'string monopod'. The device is simply a looped cord that's attached to the tripod screw of the camera. Stand with your feet in the string loop, Pull the camera in order to get some tension which helps to keep the frame steadier than holding the camera freehand. I you get a long teleobjective lens, you can even make a loop around the lens which will again increase the stability (removing one degree of rotation). The monopod comes with a wrapping coil so that everything is in order inside your camera bag... When the monopod is installed on the camera, you might as well wrap the string around the lens, than block the wire in the screw...
