[QUOTE="Village Idiot, post: 1142343, member: 29446"] 200mm * 1.6 APS-C crop sensor = 320mm FOV. The old rule of thumb is that you should be shooting at a shutter speed equal to your focal length for shots that aren't affected by camera shake. Canon's manuals give the x sync with non Canon speedlights at some where between 1/160-1/200 with most all of their cameras. If there's any bleed from ambient, it could cause camera shake. It really depends on his setup and the situation. I shoot outdoors with my strobes a lot. This could potentially be a problem if I ever used my 70-200 and wasn't using a 5D MKII. The situation could be different for him though. What's that they always say? It's best to have it and not need it rather than need it and not have it? And not having to turn IS off while using a lens on a tripod is merely a convenience. [/QUOTE]
