My stars stink an I can't figure out why. Next I'm going to try to reduce any vibrations coming from the fan on the 2600mm camera. I guess this can be an issue with the 2600 mm.

My stars stink an I can't figure out why. Next I'm going to take the fan out of my 2600mm and replace it with a Noctua 40mm fan and add some Sorbothane vibration isolation washers and silicone anti-vibration mount thingys. Ack!! Has anyone tried that?
