......Wait for it

Those images look soft to me

Heck, your avatar looks very soft to me from this distance too, but I'd never tell you that......would not wanna hurt your feelings, ya know.

CD, funny story about my name.

Okay, so when I was like maybe 8 or 9 years old I stumbled upon my first forum on the net. While pondering a nick name, I began to think of cars (which I thought were cool I supose as many kids do at that age, of course I didn't know anything about them then and I still don't.) I thought and thought and thought that jaguar was a very classy sporty car. I then created the name, but of course at the time didn't know it was actually spelt jaguar. Ever since I kept the name as I've been going by it for quite some time.

What's that saying? If you ain't got nothing good to say, don't say it, lol.. I've begun to learn even at my young age, sometimes it's best to keep what you are thinking to yourself, cause sometimes you'll hurt somones feelings or just get your butt kicked because you spoke the wrong words.

Congrats on your 4000th post btw (which will probably be posted in the next 5 minutes.)

In the spirit of this thread I just took a shot handheld at 300mm 1/20. I will upload in a minute the photo (it'll look like crap as it was shot at ISO 3200 due to my rooms crap lighting.)

Here we go, 4000 posts, and my best commemorative shot ever.....looks like a Royal Navy coast guard ship on lake Ontario patrol....not sure what the heck that is ?

Congrats. And here is my 1/20 sec handheld shot. It was run through neat image noise removal software because the noise was horrid (my room has really really poor lighting.)

I think it MIGHT have a tiny little bit of image blur.

F7.1, 1/20 sec, ISO 3200, 300mm

Atta boy, that's the spirit. What's a bit of a blur in a big picture ? It's the courage and concept that counts. Well done, Jag.

I have a fine motor disability, so shakey hands . I'm not sure if theres blur in that photo or what, just a lot of noise.

that car is probably a factory five racing type 65 coupe...

What is that car? It looks like some sportsy italian futuristic car. I realise I'm fromt he new generation, but I have no idea what that is and am curious.

the car he was asking about... www.factoryfive.com

It was actually first made in 1965.

Petkal, I can't believe you own such a slow lens. A 300 f4? And you admit to that? Dante wouldn't be caught dead with it, and frankly neither would I.

Are you suggesting he passes the lens down to me and buying something faster?.

I like that 300f/4 non-IS even better than the 300 f/4 IS....so I'll have both.
Besides, that's mah main FL.

So, you two Frodo's go ahead and seek self-pleasure and self-indulgence in your fast glass, see if I care.

Exactly.
