First off, sorry if this is a stupid question, and sorry if this should be in the beginner section (mods feel free to move it if needs be) but I'm off work with a broken arm and I thought I would invest some time in cameras again. I've previously shied away from learning any actual technique to do with photography mainly because I'm impatient but this seems like a 'nice' forum compared to others...
I've been taking photos on and off for about 8 years or so and the ones which always seem to come out best are landscapes. I had a redsnapper tripod (which ironically snapped) but I found it cumbersome and slightly unnecessary when I did use it. I know most guys carry tripods 24/7 but do I really need a new one? In short, would I notice drastic improvements in terms of sharpness on photos such as these if I had been using a tripod?

Any other kit suggestions?
Thanks for your help
