I never said that it couldn't be done. I even said that I have done it myself.

 

But 400mm in say the early morning light means that you are on a tripod since I seriously doubt that you can handhold this thing. Even if you could, unless you have VR you are going to need around 1/400 seconds, which is not a lot of light.

 

So, you are in fact as crazy as me and all others who do this, right?

I shoot the close ups handheld.
