From: Jack Davis
Wife and I took another weekend excursion. This time to the north
coast (CA) and spent yesterday in and around Crescent City. Late
afternoon on a windy extremely chilly day I took another shot at
Battery Light. The DA 55~300 is a very light non-internal focusing
lens. When racked out to 300mm you can't breath near it when
shooting. A peek through the viewfinder showed it to be vibrating
continually, but took 11 shots (cable switch/2 sec delay) hoping for
a moment's quiet. The link is to the only shot that appears to have
been nearly vibration free. I was stubborn enough to not want to go
larger than f/6.7 (wanted some foreground rock detail) nor higher
than 200 ISO. This taken just as the sun was sinking into the Pacific
through a thin blushing persimmon tinted atmosphere.
All comments welcome.
