This was taken with the K100D and kit lens shortly after it came out. 1.5 seconds handheld.

Way to go Russ, 1.5 secs !

HGMonaro · 01-20-2009, 04:41 AM

yeah, even the people stayed still!

From all that are posted, I think if you're in doubt, just go for it, it just might work out!

Not a slow speed but taken at 840mm hand held.

Hello,

My contribution, hand held with SR on ...

At first with an FA-43 ...

Then, with an A 50/1.7 ...

And last, with the FA-43 again ...

Definitively, 1/4" seems to be my best with SR, up to now i have tried 0.3" but no success ...

Best regards

The weather was nice for a while around here. When it is good sometimes you just have to get out a take what photos you can. I usually don’t try to take photos just to see how slow I can handhold but when I looked I was slower then I thought I could go. Not ¼ but 1/15 on a 135mm is not bad. I did take some slower photos that day but they were with a tripod.

Not to bad for 1/10 me thinks! ISO 1600, f/1.4 and noise reduction/USM in RawTherapee

I am WAYYYYYYYY too much of a caffeine junkie for slow hand held.

10 seconds.... Elbows on the bridge railing.

Well - for a laugh:

15 seconds hand held on a very cold night after copious quantities of beer

A 50mm f/2 1/5sec f/2

axl · 01-21-2009, 01:22 PM

here's my best handheld:
first the data:
K100D
SMC 400/5.6 @ f8
1/80 sec
ISO 400
SR - I thought it was on, but looking at the exif in Pentax photo browser it only shows: ---- (maybe K100D doesn't record data if non A lens is on)
it took some sharpening to be honest
here's the shot:

and 100% crop

Here is one with a SuperTak 135mm f3.5 @ 1/8 sec. I can never understand why many critics of sensor based SR systems fail to get more than "1-2 stops." Here is four.
