    shutter speeds for long exposures

    70-200 F2.8 or 70-200 F2.8 IS?

    Slow broadband puzzle

    Check with your service provider. I had a run-in with mine. They decided to cap/throttle my service after I moved house. I was on unlimited downloads, but after moving was unbeknown to me stuch on a 10G max. Grrr. Solved after several grumpy complaint letters
