    Help with low light situations anyone?

    Hmmm yes you are totally right - might get away with it if it was just one person and the subject isn't too close to the camera. Low light is a nightmare - there are always trade-offs! I guess you just have to decide what is more important to not have - i.e. shallow DOF, motion bluur, lots of...

    Help with low light situations anyone?

    I agree with the slow sync - you can get some great results for gigs/DJ shots. The F1.8 will help a lot with the low light so just boost the ISO and worry about the noise later! I find Lightroom to have the best noise reduction features... does anyone agree/disagree?

    Canon EOS 7D Owners Thread

    Hi, I have a 7D and find that the 17-55mm f2.8 as a workhorse is a fantastic combo. The 17mm is great for that little extra wideness - particularly on the cropped sensor - and as its an EF-S it's substantially lighter. and the constant f2.8 is great for that extra speed and DOF. I have...
