[HUG ] Re: Erwin Puts on VR vs. Handheld vs. Tripod

Years ago when I was using a Mamiya 645 system, I made a number of expoures 
in Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, and in the Sainte Chappelle, with 400 speed 
color film, a 55 mm lens wide open, at 1/15th sec.   (There was no mirror 
lockup 
and using a monopod or tripod was not possible)   Most of them were good 
enough to make 20x24 prints.   I leaned against a wall, and braced the camera 
with 
my arms against my chest.   I expect the same would hold for Hasselblad, but 
in my old age taking a Hasselblad on a trip to Europe is not in the cards.   
Now I take a Canon G9 and lean against a wall and brace my arms against my 
chest.   The RAW files can be enlarged to 30x40 or larger!   David at the top
