Originally posted by Peter Zack You gotta be kidding!! You shot this close and managed to do it handheld? I don't have an EXIF viewer at work but you must have had a lot of light to get enough shutter speed from this.
Could you provide some data on one of the shots?
Here's one Peter:
Exif Sub IFD
* Exposure Time = 1/180 second = 0.00556 second
* Lens F-Number/F-Stop = 0/10 = F0
* ISO Speed Ratings = 200
* Original Date/Time = 2009:06:24 21:41:07
* Flash = Flash fired, compulsory flash mode
* Focal Length = 30000/100 mm = 300 mm
I'm truly impressed. Light requirements aside, handholding still enough to stay within Depth of FOCUS is astonishing. I'd need to put the K20D in burst mode and then pray ... a lot.
