That's a big'un all right. Image stabilization has come a long way
since the Korean war however. You can now buy binoculars with
minature elecronic gyros that are almost unbelievably good.
Unfortunately I haven't seen anything comparable in camera technology
other than the really high end professional gear. Hand holding a
long telephoto lens on a moving boat is very difficult but if you push
up the ASA number to 400 or so you can use very fast shutter speeds.


Yes, but you suffer with "noise" the higher the ASA.
