Certainly. John Hudson, who posted my macro comparisons () as well as
a number of OM/4/3rds tests, mentioned the same thing.
I did do multiple shots in each configuration, and selected the best
one to post. But they were pretty consistent within the group. Also,
the shutter speed was generally above 1/120th, which considering the
lens itself was anchored pretty well, should have covered most
subject motion, which isn't any worse at 1000mm than the same
reproduction ratio subject would be at 18mm.
(The EXIF data is posted in the detail shots, so you can see the
shutter speed if you like.)

It doesn't matter. Perception *IS* reality. :-)
