That's a big'un all right. Image stabilization has come a long way
since the Korean war however. You can now buy binoculars with
minature elecronic gyros that are almost unbelievably good.
Unfortunately I haven't seen anything comparable in camera technology
other than the really high end professional gear. Hand holding a
long telephoto lens on a moving boat is very difficult but if you push
up the ASA number to 400 or so you can use very fast shutter speeds.
