Hmmmmm..... you mean you need 5-axis IS at 1/400 sec? :distracted:
The thing works. That's all that matters to me. You forgot.... how cold it was. Like 65 degrees!
If you are familiar with south Florida, you'd know that Boca Raton has a certain stigma... snobbs.
Having a Boca zip code means that people will assume you are among the rich 'n famous. I live in the town bordering Boca Raton to the south.
When people ask me about Boca, I have an anecdote to share:
... one night, after a movie in Boca, my date and I were walking along the street when we came upon a brand new red Ferrari convertable parked at the curb. It shined and glimmered. We stopped and as I was telling my date about Ferraris..... another Ferrari, just like the parked Ferrari, pulls along side! The big difference was that this Ferrari was all yellow in color. We stood there with jaws dropped as the driver of the yellow Ferrari stood on his seat and looked in to the red Ferrari as if it was a bug.
It wasn't 5 seconds later that a third Ferrari, zooms up behind the yellow Ferrari! This Ferrari was red just like the Ferrari parked at the curb. The driver of the third Ferrari stood up on his seat and yelled to the driver of the yellow Ferrari, "See. I told you you should have gotten red!"
Then, the two Ferraris, one yellow, and one red, zoomed off into the Boca night.
I've been to Rome. I didn't see one Ferrari, yet alone 3 together on the street! Only in Boca Raton does this wonder occur.
Here's the start of today's walkabout at Mizner Park in Boca Raton.

Lawrence, this is the truth.... I did see one parked in front of a restaurant. I walked by it. But there was no way in hell that I was going to take a picture of it. No way.
That made me LOL ... I woulda!
OK. OK. Here. It's a red Ferrari and a typical Ferrari owner from Boca Raton. I hope you're happy now.
I did NOT take this photograph.
