But alas, it was delayed, and I had to bring the kids to their mother. However, I did take a snapshot of the kids doing what teenagers do: playing with their phones, under eucalyptus trees, perhaps 30m away from them. The great thing about the camera body is that stabilization works, after entering the focal length of the lens. The lens was mounted onto the body via 3 adapters: Leica Visoflex -> Leica R -> Four Thirds -> Micro Four Thirds. The shutter speed was merely 1/45 at the aperture of 8.0, but the image shows the effectiveness of the image stabilization. Hand-held, of course. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151203923338961&set=a.27083498960.22695.666328960 -- Ken Iisaka first name at last name dot org or com
