RE: Max weight of tele lens on *ist D

I would use a tripod collar if you have one as it was designed for it. The bigger question in my mind is your reasoning about using it as a walking around lens. The shutter speeds required for this lens handheld for most people are going to be a minimum of 1/500 sec. That's really fast film and/

That was what I thought as well, until I did some test. I took a few sets of pictures (Z-1p, F*300/4.5, Arca Swiss B1 ballhead, Gitzo G1349 tripod) with and without the lens tripod collar at every aperture. To my surprise, both sets of slides with and without the 2s mirror-prefire turned out to

Pentax may have thought is was fine, but many users find the lack of tripod collar a major oversight. I think structurally, the camera should be ok, but you will probably have some vibration issues to sort out. -el gringo -Original Message- From: Alan Chan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent:
