There is no dSLR and lens combination that can match it at any price. I don't believe price came into the original question. That's just what "at any price" means. Actually, "at any price" means that price should be ignored as a consideration. QED Can't make any sense of that -- sorry. -- Very best wishes for the holiday season and for the coming new year, John Let him go John. He's a clearly identified trouble maker and an image thief. Trying to talk reason to him is a total waste of time. "At any price" in the context I wrote it means it doesn't matter how much you paid for a DSLR it still can't take a photo silently, even if it could take one in low light. |

When you need a DOF at F/2.8 greater than a few Centermeters When you are told to be quiet in a cathedrial, during a wedding Panasonic... Switch off the volume = silent shutter Any DSLR... Don't use it. Good ones! Hardly. Doug describes a social and cultural limit - not a hardware nor mechanical one. Not really in the spirit of the original challenge. (You see, I *can* take pictures better than a Pano can under those circumstances - I'll just get filthy looks from the congregation, that's all. Hardly a *technical* limit.) -- Jeff R. You'd be used to that sort of response then? It's this sort of behaviour from cowboys like you that gave birth to my "planning for Weddings" magazine ( http://www.auspub.com.au/ ) People like you are black listed from advertising in it. I don't recall any challenge. Your "technical limit" is centric to you. My technical limits are holistic and take in the whole wedding, not just what you want to do. If you want to go around getting a reputation for being an arrogant prick who has no interest in anything but what he wants... Go ahead. You already have that reputation anyway. -- Visit my site: D-Mac.info My photos, Information about trolls and a little bit of fun too! |
