I usually use the 2-second timer to dampen vibration, unless timing is critical. That said, I recently found that under some circumstances, SR is highly beneficial even on a tripod. Out in South Dakota, the combination of a 300mm lens, 1/15" exposures, and a brisk wind was resulting in blurred shots until I turned off the self-timer and let SR do its job. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
