Nope. http://homepage.mac.com/aaronreynolds/PhotoAlbum4.html The left is the full image, the right is a blowup from it. SMC-67 75mm f2.8 on a Pentax 67, 1/30 f5.6, using mirror lock, hand held. Also, all the images on the front page at http://homepage.mac.com/aaronreynolds/ were shot with the 75mm, mostly at 1/30 f2.8. When shooting 1/60 or over hand held, I don't usually use mirror lock (unless the subject is static, then I do). When shooting 1/30 I use mirror lock whenever I can. Even without, the images are sharp enough to make 8x10s and 11x14s. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
