[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 164531, member: 9240"] My guess is that with a long lens the hand on the front counteracts the pressure from the shutter release on the back, something you wouldn't need on a tripod with a remote release. I'm guessing the tripod is also set to allow camera movement with some pressure (ie. taught, but not tight) so two hands allow easier, quicker and more stable pivoting. [/QUOTE]
