Still learning the DA560, shot hand held at high ISO and cropped in

I'd definitely suggest a steady tripod and a lower ISO, but I'm impressed you managed to hand hold the DA560 that steadily!

Impressive! I had to use a tripod with the 50-135 to get steady enough to see any moons!

Agreed, it was a what the hell moment. I could see Jupiter so I let the lens focus on it. I pushed the iso and shutter speed to eliminate shake.

The 560 is a new acquisition, and likely the last lens I buy unless something breaks, I have worked out a way to hand hold it, which I will post in a thread I will write about how to use the lens.

Primarily I got this for birding.
