[LRflex] Re: Studio shot?

Darn that autofocus.    It thinks it is smarter than we are.  Most of the
time it is almost as smart, and the rest of the time it is downright dumb.

Does look like a studio shot.  200 x 1.4 x.2 is a 560mm equivalent and I
assume hand held at a modest ISO?  That is impressive.
