Hello.
It's been a while since I posted anything...
I've been to an Airshow yesterday in Orange, Provence, France... It
was my first attempt shooting in such an event ever...
Took my K10D with my old 80-320 handheld, and burned a few rolls of
2GB SD cards.
A not-so-tight-selection is visible
. Some of those are simply spectacular.

I've read a few months ago about a PS camera that features such
software shake reduction. The camera movement (kernel) is detected
by actual accelerometers just like with hardware AS, but the shake
correction is not done physically through lens or sensor position
control, but by an embedded

I would like to find articles/web pages comparing the two different ways
for solving antishake:
adjust sensor in the body - adjust optic elements in the lens
I would appreciate your view on this subject and your links to
interesting articles/web
Had this exact issue last month (though I'm not sure about the lack of
preview function... must be *ist D specific).
Then I figured out that when slightly pushing the ring, still in A
position, in the opposite direction from the manual settings (as if I
wanted to go after A), the normal

This means that, with a 6mpix sensor, a 20x30 cm print should be
seen
from a 33cm distance or more, which seems quite reasonable.
Looking from that distance at a print that size would mean you could
not take in the whole area of the picture without scanning
Hi,
On a purely theoretical point of view, the human eye can resolve details
at least 1/60th degree wide. This means, that the smallest detail the
eye can see is about 3/1 the viewing distance...

Now about some annoying issue I have with my *ist DS: when I use the
rear dial to zoom in/out in playback mode, or to change Aperture or
Speed or Exposure compensation, it behaves quite arratically:

When turned right:
- 50% OK
