A rough gauge would be 1/focal length for 'steady' shots. No, if you have unstable hand, you should use a tripod, not use modes to compensate for it. Give it a try, practice shooting and you can control all the settings one day.

A monopod is also pretty helpful to stabilise the camera and lens...

try to maintain the minimum shutter speed to the length of the lens to keep movement to a min.
e.g.

1/50 and faster - 50mm
1/125 and faster - 125mm
1/300 and faster - 300mm
etc...

Correct holding of the SLR will reduce camera shakes. You should be comfortable holding the camera as this will also help reduce shakes. Worst case use a tripod or monopod.
