Well of course. The reason I ask is that one of my frequent uses of my 28-135 is shooting concerts where flash and tripod are either awkward or prohibited. Combined with the Elan 7's extremely quiet shutter and fast film, it's a good combo. I can shoot even at a poco forte in Bach and not be a distraction to those around me. However, my movements *can* be a distraction. The answer to my question could influence where I station myelf to shoot from in any given concert. If I really would gain from finding a post or pew to brace against, that's something to consider. But if I really could get equal sharpness sitting in the third row and grabbing shots on the fly, that would have its own advantages. On a related note, I've been thinking alot about how good a 70-200 f/2.8 IS would be for this application. Probably great - anyone doing this?
