Some people eat blue cheese, some - blue birds, and some others - blue meet. :-)

I was cooking some beef yesterday in the stove. When I took it out, I spent some time trying to get the picture. Unfortunately, it didn't come out as sharp as I wanted. http://42graphy.org/misc/_IR33616.jpg The interesting part is that the droplets were hanging down, below the pot cover, and on the photto they appear sticking up. In relation to this shooting I have a question. I was using K-7 with the DFA-100/2.8 Macro, on a Tiltall tripod. I am trying to figure out what was the reason for the lack of sharpness (even in the area where it is focused). Risking the meet cooling off, I tried with the shake-reduction switched on and off, I tried to close down the aperture - up to 5.6 and 6.something (the exposure time went up to about half a second), I tried to use the 2-second delay release, but nothing of that seemed to help. Any other thoughts? Do you think the mirror can produce some shake? Would it be better to do it with the locked up mirror?
