Ain't it great? Something that feels this good must be illegal or immoral. :) I "cheated" when I took some f/2 @ 1/4 sec shots by bracing myself, and I'm utterly astonished at the quality. I can only attribute it to lack of a mirror flap. On a tripod, my SLR works fine at these shutter speeds. Hand held? Yeah, right. I've been having so much fun with shooting wide open and seeing a very narrow plane jump into focus on the final prints that I haven't done much with the smaller apertures. I think I'm going to set the hyperfocal, and just go take some quick grab shots to see how they turn out. This is fun!! :) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
