    Re: Wista handheld?

    Tin Can, how do you like the RF? How do you fire the shutter handheld?

    In regards to the left hand strap, the big issue on the D (and SP) are the micro swing knobs are in the way if you want to put your hand through it. It just seems that if they put the distance scale on there they had some plan for people to use it in a quicker fashion than always using a tripod. Just seems like that’s where the thought ended with them.
