Well the wind(chill) didn't impact the sharpness while hand-holding at web posting size Bill. Splendid image, you can just feel the cold when looking at it.From this morning. XF/150/240mm. Handheld because the windchill was -22.4C (-8F) and too cold to set up a tripod!
Enlarging it on Flcikr really shows off the incredible definition. Wonderful image, Ed!Sydney skyline as the clock ticked over to 2022, seen from Governor Phillip Lookout in Beacon Hill. The vantage point is some eight miles away from the area of the city you see here. Visible, amongst other things, are the Sydney Tower to the left (aka Centrepoint Tower), the Sydney Harbour Bridge (slightly right of centre) and Crown Sydney in Barangaroo to the right hand side.
Fuji GFX100S with Pentax 67 400mm f4 EDIF lens. My impression was that the electronic shutter and the absence of a mirror helped to get sharp results on the long lens...

Yes, P45+ goodness!
Thanks Pegelli! When handholding in such conditions I take a series in the hope one will be sharp. In fact all seven I took are are first class. The first few were at ISO 400 1/2000, and the last (the one posted). ISO 200 1/1000. All at F5.6, almost full aperture.Well the wind(chill) didn't impact the sharpness while hand-holding at web posting size Bill. Splendid image, you can just feel the cold when looking at it.
