I am getting a pair of 20 x 50mm binoculars hoping it would function as both outdoor binoculars for hiking and beginner astronomy. But I've been reading that it could shake a lot without a tripod. So is there a way I can minimize the shaking without taking a tripod or a stabilizing frame with me? Has anyone experimented with holding it with a towel, leaning against a tree, or something like that to minimize the normal quivering? Thanks.
