[QUOTE="Village Idiot, post: 569466, member: 29446"] The shorter the focal length, the lesser the effect of camera shake. But that's just a general rule, even without IS I've still got sharp shots at 1/15th of a second with a 50mm lens. Of course, it's more like 1 out of 10 shots rather than 8 out of 10. But some times when the conditions don't accomodate the rules, you have to do what you have to regardless. I shoot bands here and there and when you shoot amatuer venues that aren't very well lit, you have to do what it takes to get the shot. Plus any other tricks to steady the camera helps as well. I did order a Canon 70-200 2.8 IS, similar to Nikon's 70-200 2.8 VR, so I'll have some better equipment to play with for a show the day before MLK's Bday. That'll be fun. [/QUOTE]
