I offer this as proof of what SR can do; it's a partial repost from another thread earlier, but the point is that SR is a boon, not a bane.
(.. omitted .. ) (re-posted begins) <http://209.197.126.178/IMGP3102.jpg> The exif data is partially wrong because it's a non-recognized lens. SR is on, ISO 200, 1/90th at f13 dialed through hyper-program, focal: 210mm (Vivitar Series 1 70-210 circa 1989), PEF > JPG through photobrowser 3 (hope bibble updates soon); no post- processing _at all_, full-quality jpeg (~4M download) for peepers. Under the circumstances, I'm really darn impressed (you can read the brass "watch step" plate that is in shadow through the window) Can't wait to do some work with this baby. Michael (re-post ends) :: addendum: I focused manually; it was infinity minus a notch on my MF lens, I knew where it would land; SR was ready as soon as I acquired focus, and clicked. It was a one-off shot. I really just wanted to do a "street-snap" and run back inside to view the results. I was pleased. My experience only.
