[QUOTE="Dawg Pics, post: 828601, member: 26505"] That lens can be custom tweaked using the dock, so you might want to see what works for you as far as image stability goes for hand held images then tweak if necessary. You can also adjust the Auto Focus if it is off. There are YouTube vids on how to fine tune the AF. Take a few test shots in bright light while set-up on a tripod and see which focal lengths and f-stop gives you the sharpest images. Patience and practice with that long lens if trying to pan with it. Dang thing is heavy, at least for my old, weak upper body. 👵🏻 Working on it. 💪 You might already be a good panner, I am not. You might find that it isn't all that fast with AF thanks to the large barrel on it. Takes a while to rotate the thing if you aren't already close to where you need to be to achieve focus. Good luck.
