No direct response, but during the run-up to my Alaska trip, someone sent this URL: http://bythom.com/support.htm which gives a lot of general advice. The critical point is buried near the end: your tripod weight must be somewhere between one and 1.5x of your total camera weight (camera plus lens). Otherwise there just isn't enough stability. -- Hugs and backrubs -- I break Rule 6 http://rule6.info/ <*> <*> <*> Help a hearing-impaired person: http://rule6.info/hearing.html -- 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.
