  1. <p>This shot was taken last night (Sept 12) at 1/60sec, f/5.6, 400iso, using the 30D and 100-400mm L at 400mm. It may be difficult to get the shutter speed fast enough using f/16, unless you have the ISO set at 800-1600+. I find it difficult to get a satisfactory shot using these high ISO's on the 30D due to the resulting noise and grain, maybe the D300 will perform better.</p>
  2. <p>I was wondering if it was necessary to get a model release from people during street photography. Occasionally I take a look at the photos from the street photography category and I always wonder if it is necessary to obtain model relaeses from each individual in the photos.</p>
  3. I was just wondering if anyone with this lens or any other quality lens uses a

    protective filter (eg: UV, Skylight). I have a Sigma UV filter (Sigma UV - Ultra

    low Reflection Multi-Coating), however, I have not used it yet.

     

    Will using such a filter diminish the quality of the photos?

     

    Is it wise to place inferior glass in front of L glass? or is the trade off for

    lens protection worth it, even if the possibility of decreased image quality arises?

  4. "Folks can always increase the number of anonmynous rates by asking friends to go rate the photo after showing it to them, so that they get more points, but this is better than negatively rating another photographer's image."

     

    Mate rating is just as bad or worse than 3/3 raters.

  5. "Canon's 50mm lenses are a complete mess except for murhaps the 2.5 macro)."

     

    From what I have read on this site, it seems that most people love the Canon 50mm lenses, even the cheaper 50mm F/1.8 II.
