So, a hand held 800mm at 1/250 sec. That is VERY impressive.
No, Aram. Hand held at 400mm at 1/250th. The FoV is 800mm due to
the smaller sensor, but the f/l is still 400. Still, for hand-held,
w/o shoulder stock or pistol grip, I think it's OK!
Gives me confidence that when I get out with the birdies (another few
weeks, it seems, though the first Canadian Jays, Thrushes and Canada
Honkers, not to mention a few Red-winged Blackbirds, are here now),
once the backroads are mostly clear of snow, and can use the monopod
w/shoulder stock, the results should be quite good. :-)
What pleased me is that the focus confirmation worked! Rather well, actually.
Cheers!
