Chris, Doug...
As a test, I asked Rose to look at the hi-res image of the "low light
moose". While she is not an avid photographer, she does have a
sense of what's Ok to use, and what's not, having edited many of my
photos. OTOH, she has a lot of experience with moose, having been a
camp cook at countless dozens of moose/bear/elk and mountain sheep
hunting camps.
Her comments were (a) that he was "an old guy", and that (b) it is a
photo which she would expect an excited hunter to take, with a cheap
to medium priced P&S or "Bridge" camera with a 10X or 12X zoom. As
she said.. "just not sharp, anywhere!"
Certainly, it would not excite me to drop US$11,000 on my local dealer!
I can only repeat your question ... "What WERE they thinking????"
Cheers!
