[QUOTE="GracieAllen, post: 670875, member: 41283"] I probably forgot to mention the conditions... MIDDAY I was shooting supported on a beanbag and I was at 1/200, f/6.3, ISO 1600. Sometimes it was as low as 1/100..... Conditions were sh*t and I should have stayed in bed. I expected a higher-than-number failure rated, but I figure I should have gotten SOME that weren't dreadful. BUT, if I'm reading your responses correctly, it's extremely difficult if not impossible, even with the most aggressive image stabilization, to use this lens effectively for bif at speeds at or below approximately 1/500. Sounds like I should just delete the whole wretched mess as a bad day and move on. [/QUOTE]
