Although we have decided, i think, that is was not camera shake i have to say that digital SLR lens’ focal lengths are different to the old manual SLR cameras that came before. So although it was a 300mm in fact it was comparable to a 400 (ish) mm lens of old. So my new Canon 70 – 250mm lens is more than suitable for what I need. And it has built in stabilizer so cuts out (or down) any camera shake. AND it wasn’t as expensive as I thought it was going to be. Got it from Argos. Check them out.

Oh wow! That’s better than I remember it. Many thanks for the quick response.

Dunno what the point of your quality shots are ???

The point was to see what the shadowing on the image was.

“The “Shadowing on the bunting” looks like motion blur to me ? maybe the bunting was moving in the wind?”

Yes, I thought that at first but the shadowing is exactly the same on the writing on the sign and the window frame behind. Now I have read about Chromatic Aberration I can see that is the problem here. I will send that lens back, get a Canon and do the same test again. Watch this space.
