Heck I had nothing better to do, that's not exactly true, I was looking
for a further reason to procrastinate so I grabbed my *ist-D and Vivitar
S1 600mm and shot off a sample. It's not bad. I prepared the shot as I
would for the web so it's not as it would be direct from the camera.
Noise reduction and a touch of USM, which I'd expect to be done by
almost anyone shooting the *ist-D at iso 1600.
Nothing special for focus, just focused on a section of concrete with
stuff on either side. Hand held.

Anyone here have any examples of the results of a mirror lens on a digital
body? Just curious how well it works.
Right now my tentative plan for the soccer match is
(a) A200/4 (my son's) or perhaps
a 300mm or 500mm mirror on the DS
and
(b) A100/2.8 on Super Program.
Super Program will be iso400 B&W body.
Sincerely,
Collin
