How about a gimbaled tripod mount, like a Wimberly or the Kirk King Cobra.

I prefer IMGP2943w.jpg than IMGP2943wi personnaly.
Very nice photos indeed.
BTW I notice my SMC-F 70-210 is slow to focus on my D (as well as on
my SFXn) but way faster on my Z1. Anybody noticed the same behaviour?
I thougt the lens was problematic but now I think it's just the D

Having time for my idle brain to get into mischief, I got to
wondering how Pentax designs and tests the D FA lenses without
having a full-frame (24 x 36 mm) camera to test them on.
Do they use the two (or so) prototypes of the MZ-D that they
must still have?
Do they use full-frame Canons with
Lens design happens in software, lens testing happens on an optical
bench not a camera.

Slightly prefer the Tamron on the 75mm f/5.6 and f/8. Pentax on all
others.
Quite an exposure difference.

I'm happy to be able to say, that the Pentax lens is a pretty clear winner:

The test shots are crops, showing the only centre of the frame.

Does anyone have suggestions for an ideal test subject that I can use to
evaluate how much compression I can tolerate in my JPEG files? Sometimes I
shoot in JPEG mode to get more exposures on my card. A lot of the time, I
can't tell any significant different difference between different JPEG

I always use the best. JPG is a compromise anyway; no point in making it
worse. If you're short of space on a card, buy more cards.
