Originally posted by siva.ss.kumar I see shake even though I placed the lens on car window or on a lake wall.
I swear by a bean bag (I make mine for ~nowt) - allows the lens to point to the subject without being tilted on edge and wobbling. I'll tend to have a hand on top top pressing down into the bean bag, or I'll use a remote shutter release. Never leave home without both.
Also don't underestimate the desireability of fast shutter speeds. At 560mm on apsc (1.5x crop factor, but also factor in later cropping of the image as well) I suggest figure on 1/1000sec minimum if not on a bean bag or tripod etc. Experience continues to reinforce for me that between possible graininess from high asa vs shake, its better to err on high asa graininess.
