This shot was taken a couple of weeks ago during my vacation in Eilat (the southest spot in Israel). The temperature outside was about 43 degrees C, and I was sitting in the shade, playing with my scope (Leica Apo 77) and my CP8400, trying to focus on interesting subjects. (what else can one do at those temperatures other than sitting in the cold water or digiscoping?...
The flying family was undeneath the big parachute some 700 meters away. The leica EP was set to ~x30 (2550mm combined focal length).
To my big surprise, 50% of the shots came out acceptable, and the object was not stationary at all, but moving quite fast after the boat in the sea which dragged it.
It's the first time I got such results shooting a relatively fast moving object with a scope. I was tripping the shutter with my finger, not with the remote, while panning with the scope.
Quite acceptable - what do you think?
