Did you use LV to zoom and manual focus, or did you find that you didn't need to? Also, did you stop down to f/11 for optical reasons, instead of using a faster shutter speed? It seems to have worked for you since I don't see any motion blur.
I used the VF. I tried LV for some other, earlier shots, and it really jumped around. I probably should have tried it for this shot as it was really calm.
Wide open is f/8 on this lens, so I just stopped down to f/11 figuring it might sharpen it up a tad. No real experience saying that it does. Now that I know I can take a shot like this, maybe I'll repeat with some more defined conditions.
