Doesn't look very sharp to me - certainly not up to your usual standards, Bruce. Did you perhaps miss focus or is the pic less-than-sharp because of shake? Or do I need new glasses?
BTW, I get an "effective" focal length of 840mm: 400mm x 1.5 crop factor X 1.4 teleconverter. Am I miscalculating? If not, the results are pretty good for a hand-held shot. What focal length did you select for activating the SR? Do you think the results might have been better had you chosen a different focal length?
