Subject: PESO: Battery Point Light
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.
Jack
