I agree! It might not freeze helicopter blades, but for most
typical shooting, I get "perfect" results this way myself. I've
shot quite a few rolls this way, and have been perfectly
happy with the results. No one can see any difference other
than the parallax, of course! As you mention, no problem with
water shots, wind, etc., either. Heck, even television monitors! :-)
