Hi Mike, So far I have used a 28-300 and 24-70 Nikkor on the body. I am also using a tripod and monopod to reduce shake but have also taken a few hand held shots. From various reviews I have read, I set the lenses to f8 or f11 and use Aperture Priority. I am also using Photoshop CC and it has a new way of reducing motion blur. I think that the post processing software has become very aware of high pixel counts and are trying to assist. Shortly I will post some shots in this thread to illustrate what I mean. I am taking delivery of a 200-400 VRII Nikor in the near future and this is a lens that should push me to the limits I have to say that so far I can only detect a little blur at over 80% crops on my hand held shots. Also several reviewers recommend finding and using the lens sweet spot as much as possible - hence the Aperture Priority.
