In fact, as can be observed on Photodo and inferred from numerous online
reviews and tests, the 28-70 L is one of the sharpest zooms available in its
range. I don't have one (yet), my own observations are only based from word
of mouth of others, online and magazine material though.

Hi there.
I´ve uploaded 3 pictures of my first try in a studio, strobes and stuff.
I´d like to hear your comments and suggestions, specially regarding light.
Thanks in advance. I really appreciate.

The usually quoted advantage is that you can review / edit shot as you
go.

I also wish Canon made a few more lenses in the price and quality range of
the 70-200 F4 L. $500-700 is my max budget for a lens.

Hi Al,
What is the model number of this Redwing stand, and where can I get one,
if you can suggest a place? It sounds like a great thing for altar
shots and such.
Thanks,

Do you use ECF by any change? If you do, then the flash-exposure is always
linked to the central focus point, and if your subject is not under this
focus point, then your flash exposure will not be correct.
I also use the OCSC-2, and never had problems so far with it.

Still learning the wonders of this combo.
Just read in the 550EX manual that the FP mode should be enabled manually on
the flash.
Camera's manual mentions usage of this mode when it is enabled.

Chris, when I used the term "robust" in my comments on the 28-135, I
wasn't really talking about the construction. It seems plenty solid to
me, though certainly not as solid as my old pentax gear o
I can say that I could not use my Sunpak flashes with any external power
source unless the internal AA batteries or some substitute insert were
installed.

Well, I'm not so much the "Devil's Advocate" as I am the Devil himself.
I use a 28-135 IS for most shooting and it does seem a bit light compared to
my 100-400 L IS, which is build like a brick pagoda. However, all is not

after reading some of the comments about the 28-135 IS lens and after
