Beamer: How to show images as step-by-step images

I'm trying to make a presentation using the Beamer class. I want to show a simple list of images, one by one in one frame, just like when you use itemize<+->.

I have no problem showing the images one-by-one, but the images shifts every time I insert a new image. How do I solve this - From my perspective there must be a simple solution, without specifying the absolute placement of the images.

You can simply specify a series of images like this:

\includegraphics<1>{A}
\includegraphics<2>{B}
\includegraphics<3>{C}

This will produce three slides with the images A to C in exactly the same position.

I found a solution to my problem, by using the visble-command.

EDITED:

\visible<2->{
   \textbf{Some text}
   \begin{figure}[ht]
       \includegraphics[width=5cm]{./path/to/image}
    \end{figure}
 }

\includegraphics<1>{A}%
\includegraphics<2>{B}%
\includegraphics<3>{C}%

The % is important. This will keep all the images fixed.

This is what I did:

\begin{frame}{series of images}
\begin{center}
\begin{overprint}

\only<2>{\includegraphics[scale=0.40]{image1.pdf}}
\hspace{-0.17em}\only<3>{\includegraphics[scale=0.40]{image2.pdf}}
\hspace{-0.34em}\only<4>{\includegraphics[scale=0.40]{image3.pdf}}
\hspace{-0.17em}\only<5>{\includegraphics[scale=0.40]{image4.pdf}}

\only<2-5>{\mbox{\structure{Figure:} something}}

\end{overprint}
\end{center}
\end{frame}

This is a sample code I used to counter the problem.

\begin{frame}{Topic 1}
Topic of the figures
\begin{figure}
\captionsetup[subfloat]{position=top,labelformat=empty}
\only<1>{\subfloat[Fig. 1]{\includegraphics{figure1.jpg}}}
\only<2>{\subfloat[Fig. 2]{\includegraphics{figure2.jpg}}}
\only<3>{\subfloat[Fig. 3]{\includegraphics{figure3.jpg}}}
\end{figure}
\end{frame}
