Jason are you suggesting that coconuts migrate?? (or is it water droplets that migrate?)
You bunch o' water piddlers...

Once again let me repeat I never disagreed that the best way is to kill the ambient and use the flash to freeze the motion. In fact that is what I suggested first. I have done calculation and freeze it with my shutter. What more do you need? Seriously.. Do this shot on full sun and macro lens, no problem. I have been saying it over and over, it is not that fast.
Imagine, if you will, that you are taking a macro photograph of a snail. Let us say, of its eye stalk. The eye stalk can move.. some distance in 1/100th of a second, right? I don't care what distance. Not very far. Call that distance x.
Macro in there until you're right up close to it, so stuff in the frame is 1/2 of x wide. x is pretty small, so you're really close, but it can be done, right?
Now set the camera to 1/100th second shutter speed.
You gonna be able to get a sharp picture of that eye stalk, or not?

It is possible.
I couldn't read past the 3rd page... But I will say Gavjenks is a genius, and derrell is the man (plus we share the same name). Why don't we argue with facts instead of equations that we can't seen to agree on. Prove your point with images and exif data! If you did and I missed that, my b, ignore me, but let's just all be friends!!
