    Wow... Thanks guys !
    neuroanatomist : Not using mirror lock up ! I don't know why I neglected this !!?... I'll try MLU and silent mode, think that'll do.
    bob williams : Thanks for test method, will try that too.
    andnowimbroke : Exposure about 1 sec, outside, slight wind, column extended.

    Thanks again.
    Anatoly.

    MLU will help, but a 1 s exposure is getting to the point where MLU becomes less relevant (as the duration of the vibration gets very short relative to the exposure, it matters less).

    Extending a tripod center column adds substantial instability - avoid it unless you absolutely need the additional height. When choosing a tripod, get one that provides a comfortable working height without extending the center column.
