I'm pretty sure it was somewhere between 1/50 and 1/25.

Usually you can hand hold at 1/(insert focal length here). So say a 200mm lens can be held at 1/250th of a second.

Oooo that's a good one. I like that 👍

Sometimes I can get away using 1/30 for 200mm (equiv.) shots with an acceptable amount of blur. You just need proper technique to do it.

True, but if you're shooting a person or animal, you really shouldn't go any longer than 1/80s, irrespective of focal length.
