If Chief does, I will.

really.

For the first time in, umm, at least a year, I shot some jpg on the weekend (out of necessity more than want - card space ran low and still had much more to shoot).

So here's my jpg contribution:

Another duo for the July JPG.

I got a bit confused when I went to apply an output sharpening at the end of my workflow, as these seemed pretty sharp already. Then I remembered I was shooting JPG

Why yes it is! I took a few shots yesterday, but nothing special. The light wasn't great. You can see a couple of the shots from yesterday with the Bigmos here.

Congratulations . I love http://www.pbase.com/m​adawson/image/10028139​8 - it's a fantastic shot. How is the bigmos to handle? The largest / longest lens I've used is 70-200 f/2.8.

Thanks Ed.

The Bigmos is about 3 times heavier than my next lens, the 70-200 f/4 L. It is long!, but not too heavy. The OS really works well and stabilizes the images even at close range (< 10 feet). I need to use it more to see if I will like it. I broke my left wrist in High School and I experience some pain and discomfort when holding a big lens for a long time (like the 100-400 L at the air show last year). The Bigmos is a pund heavier than the 100-400 so we will see how I fair with it. My next air show is at the end of September so I need to know before then.
