[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 471844, member: 13090"] Living in Southern California I deal with this on occasion since deserts and beaches are both great sources of what I know as heat-wave diffraction (I've never heard it called "scintillation" before). It can be frustrating but I've just come to think of it as One of Those Things that plague us as photographers. The best solution I've found is simply avoiding it by shooting during the cooler parts of the day. If that's just not possible you can try to get closer to minimize the effect but if [I]THAT'S[/I] not possible, well... At that point you're pretty much screwed.
