Girl in a hat

Girl in a hat

I found it much easier to do style photography at the Africa Oye festival on Sunday. That may have been because I could get close to people using the 100-400 without physically getting close to them. The 100-400 isn’t exactly your normal photographers lens. The whole point is that you do get close to people. Some shoot at 28mm. In other news, my shiny new Canon 24-70 f/2.8 L arrived. Its a replacement for the Sigma 24-70 because the front end is wobbly and I can’t afford to be without it for 2 weeks while its fixed. So I figured I may as well upgrade, get the other fixed and sell it off. The best thing is that the 2 lenses I use the most both use a 77mm thread. So I can share filters. Also, I’m 1 L lens away from being able to join the Canon Pro club.

Camera: Canon 10D // Lens: Canon 100-400 IS L // Focal Length: 260.0mm // Exposure Time: 1/800 // Aperture: f/5.6 // ISO: 200

Hi Pete,
great shots as always. Wish I could get great shots like that all the time, still I'm not pro.
However, re being 1 L lens away from joining the canon pro club, the 50mm 1.8 is listed as sufficiant. So you should be able to join now. Arn't you pleased I told you that. Well maybe not.
