X-Man's Methodology

You regular readers know that I've just about used it all
at some point or another. Nikon, Olympus, Sony, Minolta,
Sigma...they're all good.

But for this type of low-light gig, only one camera will do
it for me...the Canon EOS 5D, and my favorite prime, the 85mm 1.2L.
Why no Sigma SD14? Just remember this:
"You gots to know when to use 'em,
know when to lose 'em" :-)
