Ah,
Glad there was more discussion of your nice gallery. You posted it on
a day I was swamped and didn't get a chance to savor it until this
weekend and the extra discussion reminded me to do so. I see your
macro shots seem to be taken at the 200ish end of your Tammy zoom and
the Tammy 90 macro didn't get much excercise on that outing. Works
well enough.
If you get a chance wonder what problems came up with your current
?Velbon travel pod and what/why you chose to replace it.
I'll admit that most of my long exposures are usually when traveling.
I trust the OM auto so much --and it is stable on my travel pod using
an L bracket that that is what I use out of habit with no
disappointments from the gear. I haven't used the cheap yabe cable
release for the OM 5DII
but for a few times. It works well enough. The Velbon maxi isn't so
great for macro but at least I can secure it to the Minitrekker.
Curious as to what has been long simmering, Mike
