Testing The Pentax K100D Shake Reduction Feature

Janneman has come up with an innovative way to test the effectiveness of the in-camera SR feature on the Pentax K100D - all you need are mufflers and a motorized lawn mower.

I'm very, very impressed with the sharp pictures he managed to obtain at low 1/30 and 1/45 sec shutter speeds.

I'm pretty convinced that you can shoot sharp pictures of animals with the K100D while on an African Safari adventure and travelling in a bumpy jeep.
