- Yes, I felt the same way and perhaps would have obliged you with an "of course"
- in my posting. However, there may be more to it than the just the obvious
- physics of the situation. It may be, in fact, that the stablization mechanism
- *overcompenstates* when the zoom range is closer to 1:1. Of course, this is
- merely conjecture and interpretation on my part. Perhaps some sophisticated
- user out there can refute or back up this point?
