I Know, I know…I have neglected my blog in recent days. Well, I just had to tell someone about the last couple of weeks! I have been in desperate need of a new backup camera as my old Canon 20D was a little worse for wear. When I am shooting with Paula, it isn’t a big deal because between us, we have like 4 cameras. But when I am off shooting by myself, the 20D had just become too unreliable. So I took the plunge and decided to purchase the Canon 7D as a backup to my 5D MK II. I had no idea it was going to perform so well that I think I like it just as well! The ONLY drawback I see to it is that it has a cropped frame sensor while my MK II is a full frame. (That is actually a plus when it comes to ring shots because it gets me closer to the action). While Canon was issueing instant rebates, I decided to also pick up the newest version of my Canon 70-200 IS 2.8 lens. Now you must understand, my older version of this lens has always been my favorite lens. It is just yummy! So I couldn’t understand how it could be much better. This lens is amazingly fast focussing and the pictures are truly beautiful! I could not be happier with my purchases, though my pocketbook is empty! So this week I went on facebook to try to find someone willing to help me test them out. My BEAUTIFUL friend and worship team partner came to my rescue! We had a great time running around Old Town Temecula together shooting pics. Here are a few.  Thanks Tanisha!
