I bought it for “Low Light” shooting and I’m glad I did! …

I seem to have a problem that I simply do not like to use the flash! … I do not know if this “Low light” from mania, but its my problem and I
Always wanted to have a room that allowed me to take good pictures in “existing light” and “low “…. light

I am not a photographer !…. but what I do with my Canon T1i is just a bit ‘Shooting fun, then make a slideshow with music that I can add, and I
happy old boy! ..

In the past, have always been almost sick to my stomach when I saw how my photos taken in “existing light or low” came out! ..
I mean inside the house or inside the theater where what you see is what you get! …

This “low light” craze all started with my daughter, in New York City entertainer. So naturally when she first asked me to photograph
performance I knew that he could not use the flash. And without a flash is never permitted in all theater / club, etc. …. know, it took a bit ‘to understand that the lens
that came with my first DSLR was too slow, with maximum aperture of 3.8 ….

I bought a beautiful Canon 50mm 1.4 lens, but soon discovered that I needed to “ZOOM” to approach the performer.
So, I bought a Sigma 18-200 3.5 lens and optical stabilization worked quite well because he had the perspective that Stabilizatiion
I gained two or three stops slower shutter …

But yet it was not satified. I continued to do research on new DSLR and the ability of ISO. I saw that the Canon Mark II has had a fantastic 5
capacity and acceptable high ISO .. but it was too much money for me. So, I researched DSLRs all who were in my price range and
T1i happy to say that the Canon was the one I chose and bought ..

I “ve shot as high as ISO 6400 and I can truly say I am very satisfied. If your next thought is about the” noise “….. forget it !….. don ‘t bother me
that much at all! … If people …. I have “captured the moment” and I’m happy as a pig in mud! … What else can I tell you! ..

Now he can go very very dark in a theater / club and shoot in all the darkness freaking can throw at me, and I just keep shooting away

And, I also bought a sensational Canon 17-55 2.8 IS which should also get some credit for all those super “Low Light” shots ..
And the reason I give this beautiful room only four (4) Because of its stars is horrible “Shutter” NOISE! … what in
Canon world thought when they put this big room together? ..

Look, I’m happy with this camera. And at my advanced age of 78, his, will probably be my last DSLR lot, and I’m happy as a pig eating slop!.
And, my “Low Light” shots come out great! .. Yes even at ISO 6400. You can also go up to ISO 12800, but I use that is actually its pitch dark! ..

And before I forget, the movie mode is one of the reasons I bought this camera!. I do not use the best resolution, I use one in the middle, whatever it is, something of 720 X and the film are strong enough. Sad that Canon has the sound in “stereo”, but probably not notice the difference
however.
