Thanks Scott. Care to elaborate more on this technique? I'm a noob :shakin:
For the 20D
Top panel: Hold the DRIVE-ISO button and scroll with the top dial. Scroll until you see the little circle with a dash in it. That is the self-timer. Push the shutter and ten seconds later, the camera takes a pictures. No shake from you pushing the button. But you are still not finished, as mirror shake is still present.
Back panel: Menu, scroll down to custom functions, select with the "set button" in the middle of the wheel.
select Custom Function 12 and set to enable.
Once both are set (and the image is composed), the first time you push the shutter release, the mirror will lock up, the second time the self timer will engage. 10 seconds later (plus the shutter speed), you image will be done, and shake free) :archaeolo
