[QUOTE="Old Sub Sailor, post: 836645, member: 62429"] We had a run of heavy rain here on the Texas Gulf Coast, so I was not able to get out for a while. On 9/3/25, we went out to Fort Travis, on the Southern end of the Bolivar Peninsula and I set up again. This time I was careful to center the lens collar food in the tripod as closely as I could and I made sure that Vibration Reduction was turned off in the Menu Settings. I was focusing on Tankers that were anchored over a mile out in Bolivar Roads, and everything was rock solid as I moved the Arca-Swiss tripod head gear knobs to move the camera around as before (and just like my old D850 and RRS tripod ball head). Evidently I messed up in my set-up before. The heat was too bad for me to get shots of anything really far out; grossly magnified shimmering blobs. The stern of the ship on the right is about a little over 1nm away.[ATTACH type="full"]421851[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
