Ah, it doesn't compensate for rotation in the sensor plane, such as seen in my picture above. But they'll have 4/6 degrees of freedom covered! Maybe Oly can make a 6 degree of freedom IS system, so the focus won't move when you shoot with a shallow depth of field!
Some VERY red skies tonight made for a gorgeous sunset, but I think it means I'm in for a rather large storm tonight.
Also, Raven, I think the Pentax IS system can correct a little bit for rotational movement because the CCD is actually suspended in a magnetic field as opposed to on a platform with micromotor movement.
Thanks raven. Unforunately, there's no "foreground" to speak of, as they were all taken from my balcony over the top of an apartment building - damned arthritis flared up and kept me inside for three straight days.
Moon shot try #2 from tonight. Thanks for the advice Don, but honestly... um... didn't end up using any of it beyond "mess with post-processing". It was too dark try live-view manual focusing, or completely blown out from the boost, and shot at 300mm again because 270 gave no real detail or quality boost.
Alright, attempt #3. Extremely clear skies tonight. Pretty much the same as last night, but a lot more light available.
EXIF data is intact, automatic focus, spot metered, went with a three second lockup tonight
