I note that Olympus suggests, for long lenses: "When using a tripod,
hold the camera steady with both hands and press the shutter release
with the ball of finger, not with the cable release." (Source: Hans's
SIF site, URL http://members.xoom.com/_XMCM/veluwen/om-sif.htm). Has
anyone done tests, comparing Olympus's recommended hand-held method
with the use of cable release or self-timer, to see which gives the
most reliable stability?
