No at F5 at 250.
I always shoot on a tripod and use a remote shutter release. (for ruler and flies)

Sorry, I actually meant was the fly hand-held- however I'd recommend MLU as you may be getting some harmonic vibration in there- worth a test anyway.
No the fly is held by tweezers, then held by a clamp. What is MLU?
Here's an example of an Nikon image from an Coolpix camera. I struggle to do this good. With a SLR! The second is one I shot with my 20D
