I'm glad to read your comments as it's nice to know it wasn't just me that struggled to get good pictures at the show. I was using 1600/2.8 and, once I realised it was too dark for that, I didn't really know what to do. I tried using flash but compensated back a long way; however, the vast majority of photos were little more than smudges. I got home and felt I'd failed miserably at an event that had huge potential. I think the 5DM2 will make life easier judging by the high ISO samples here: http://www.dpreview.com/gallery/canoneos5dmkii_preview/ Hi Pete,

That's why I liked my old film based rangefinders, but the problem was you couldn't get quick results. You can't have it both ways!
