I'm surprised Barry Thornton bothered to make such a test, I thought
everyone knew that using a tripod will usually produce sharper photographs
than hand-holding the camera.

He shows the degrees of difference, and that's significant. What was
surprising was the big difference between two tripods. Of course, debunking
the handheld shutter speed rule was important, too.

[...] The shutter speed problem we've been
discussing is supposedly something peculiar to that camera and is
supposedly
a problem even with the camera on a tripod.

A definitive test is in order.
