Ho folks,
Sorry for the confusion.
I wrote:
This morning the conditions were also reasonably good, and over the course
of about an hour I took 24 shots with the 500, 300, 200 and the Tok 135,
varying on-camera contrast, saturation etc plus UV filter. I'm not at all
satisfied yet.
I found it very difficult to maintain the horizon at the correct angle; on the
Manfrotto head there always seemed to be creep. Also with the Zuiko 300
collar. I did manage to hold exposure value and recompose; but I'm not sure
that this helped camera/lens stability. I have to work on stability with the
500.

Perhaps I should have written:-

Tok 135mm f/2.8, varying on-camera contrast, saturation etc plus UV filter.

300mm using the tripod collar. I did manage to hold exposure value and

work on stability with the 500/8.

Does that clarify? The tripod collar was on the Zuiko 300/4.5 only
