Interesting... have you used a monopod on 600mm lenses before, and with what result? I never have, but I'd imagine that it would be hard to steady the lens, since (as you said), even the slightest movements will throw off the composition or blur the image slightly. Is it not as bad as I think it would be? chris - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
