Hi folks!

Just wanted to share some photos from the China Dance & Arts 2009 performance. I used the Canon 5D and the 85mm 1.8 lens mostly. It would have been nice to have a zoom, but unfortunately I still only have primes!

Overall, I was impressed at the 5D's ability to autofocus in low light. It isn't as good as my 1DS MK I in terms of autofocus, but the 5D's uncanny ability to resolve detail in the worst of light and color balance really saved the day.

Most of the shots were processed in Lightroom, all of them taken in RAW.

If anybody wants to see my favorites from the three events please feel free to check them out here:
