It all depends. Sometimes it looks ok, but generally it looks amateurish.
On the subject of NO camera shake, though, i watch Pulp Fiction again last night, and there's a bit fairly near the end, when Butch Coolidge is going back to get his dad's watch...
He parks the car, and walks through some wasteland to get to his old apartment. He climbs through a fairly small hole in the fence, and the camera follows him through, and it's SO smooth. Go watch it.
Same as the Tarantino section of 4 Rooms. There's a CRAZY long section of that that's one shot. PF is full of long shots too, but 4 Rooms has the best one. It's all shot in one room, and people are moving to and fro, and it's just so seamless. Amazing.
But yeah, if the camera shake "fits" then go for it.
