These are all hand-held. And I think all with the 1.4 teleconverter on it. The really close up shot of the moon is a straight crop with no downsizing. The other moon shots are about 1280x1280 pixels and resized to 640x640. The wide shot is from a 20mm on a 20D.

Or I need to tighten up the clamps. The 100-400 never did this to it. Attempts to use it on my "best" tripod are even more frustrating. RRS or Arca Swiss seem to be in my future. Sigh. The wording in the lens manual about not looking into the sun seems even more dramatic than I remember from other lenses. And it isn't kidding! I imagine that arc-welding my eye would feel more pleasant. -- void *(*(*schlake(void *))[])(void *); * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
