I was just seeing if I could animate outside. The reason for the shaking is that I had to lower the shutter speed, thus showing every time I pressed the button. 
cool! too cold here to animate outside at this time of the year in the uk.
Yeah, it is pretty cold here, but I'm used to it. 
that was pretty sweet, its to hot hear, its suppose to be in the 60's today, i want to try to animate in the snow
big babies
its like 70-80 degrees right now in california
but real nice animatin, the shakiness actually made it more dramatic
Thanks! I didn't realize this would get positive feedback. By the way, who saw my cats? 
the sun moving in the background...
That was the main effect I was gunning for.

I would use a remote then (If your camera is capable). If not, use the self-timer function on the camera to prevent or limit bumps.

I can't do either of those because my camera is not capable of being controlled by a remote, and you have to set the self-timer on my camera for each individual picture.

i do use a timer, which is set every frame.
it isnt easy, but it somewhat works
Ehehe. Here in Finland: -20 celsius!

Well, I guess we shouldn't expect any of these videos from you, now will we?

Then I would seriously consider looking for a new camera (Preferably one with all manual controls, including focus, and also has live view/remote capability). If you are not able to get a camera or just aren't in the position to buy one, you'll just have to make do with what you have.
My camera does have all manual controls: focus, white balance, shutter speed, and aperture. This is really the only problem I have with it.
Yeah, use a remote, because it's much too shaky. And you should get rid of everything that is likely to move (e.g. the cat in the beginning!). But I still think doing stop-motion outside is not ideal...

I do hope you know that this is the only one of my new videos that has shaking that extreme. Check out my others. 
I will
Thanks. 
Very nice. I always like outside animations.
