    It's All Happening At The Zoo

    What's wrong, Scott? Have you never heard of hopping over the barricade? :D Even with the glass/reflection, nice shot! Oh, and I'm wondering, if you know you're going to a place with a lot of glass, like a zoo or aquarium, would a polarizing filter help?

    It's All Happening At The Zoo

    Just had to post, my friend is getting married tomorrow and so I went to my local camera shop and rented the EF 70-200 L IS USM II. Been taking some shots around the apartment, practicing for indoor use both with and without flash (580EX II) and :eek: within the 70-200mm focal range there isn't...

    Yeah I'd like a wider lens, but most of my indoor shots are also low light handheld (won't be traveling with a tripod, might buy a gorillapod style since it's smaller and lighter...) so the 10-22 at f/3.5-5.6 might prove to be a challenge to get sharp, low light, fast shutter speed shots...

    Hi Scott - thanks again for the advice. I am familiar with how telephotos can also achieve landscape, but as you say, I think my personal shooting tendencies go towards wide vista type shots. Since I won't be seeing much wildlife or sports, or taking portrait type shots (something the 70-200L...

    It's All Happening At The Zoo

    Hi Scott - I do have the 55-250 and it is "decent". I was looking at the 70-200 f/4L IS because it's stellar. I looked at my last trip to France in 2006 with my point and shoot and my biggest regret was not coming back with better pics (the low light pics from the P&S were atrocious). That's why...

    It's All Happening At The Zoo

    Great shots and congratulations on your 7D! I love mine. I'm currently agonizing whether to buy the EF 70-200 f/4 L IS USM for my trip to France in the fall. Part of me wants the glass. Part of me wants to travel light since I'll have roughly 2 weeks split between Paris and the Riviera. My...
