Yeah next time the focus will be in the right place.
Combined weight of camera and lens well over 10 lbs.
hand held getting the focus right and no jitter at the
same time, not so easy when you are my age.
Even on a heavy duty tripod just hitting the shutter button
at 400mm causes jitter. Shooting thru a glass door does
not help with the autofocus.
If i did the same thing with the F5, the whole thing would
have been out of focus due to jitter. Probably not a fair
comparison as the F5 came before the VR stuff. But many
i have talked to say the F6 still does not do as well when
compared to the digital.
The next time i need to get serious, i'll take my 50 lb tripod, rent
a mamiya medium format camera with the kodak 40mp back and
take hours and get it right. Don't think i will be doing that again
for a while.
