How steady can you hold a lens? I used to think I was fairly normal but I'm now wondering whether I'm not.
Recently got a 70-200 F4 IS. The IS works superbly, seriously reducing camera movement but doesn't remove it completely by any means. I'd not expect it to remove all movement but I have heard people say "wait until the image becomes still" when discussing IS and it's made me wonder whether I'm not holding the camera as steady as most others are. Of course everything's relative but my father suffers from a slight loss of fine motor control, causing his hands to shake visibly under some conditions. Whilst I haven't noticed this in myself yet, it does bear thinking about.
