Graydon, I've never seen shake reduction focal length before. The variation with the DA 35mm macro makes me wonder. Is it trying to figure actual length of the lens from focal distance used? Macros can change a lot depending on focal distance. This would change the actual length of the lens for shake. Regards, Bob S.
