Dear Ian,
I use with my 1Ds the 24/70 and the 70/200 IS.
I would strongly recommend the purchase of the best lenses available (i.e not the widest focal zoom lenses), and not to bargain with the IS which is a great feature even at 1/125 s. The sensor and the camera deserve it widely. Stay Canon.
I would recommend to not go over f8 if you are concerned by sharpness, f11 is a maximum.
Thing about unlike with film you'll check the pictures at 1000 % magnification instead of 8...
I had used low shutter speed but for now I run with a carbon tripod in a bag on my shoulder...
Don't miss Capture One neither.
Best regards.

Dear list,
Please reply off list as this is a camera/lens tecky question.
Which lenses for a potential 1d2, I have dilemma over.
Canon 24-70mm F2.8L USM really expensive ???. Canon F 28-135mm f3.5/5.6 IMAGE STABILISER USM sigma 28-70mm f2.8 EX CANON AF Tokina 28-80mm f/2.8 AT-X PRO (CANON AF).
Ok basic question, as I do a lot if low light stuff, do the image stabilisation lenses work ??
Is the 70-200 is lens worth the extra ???, or should I just go for a sigma
ex f2.8 or the canon non is lens.
Ok so with the IS lens I am 1/2 stop down at 28 over the others and at 1 or
2 stops down at 70/80mm. So if the is lenses work people are getting good
hand helds at 1/8 second according to some reviews, anyone ever tested one
on a digital, or would I be better off looking for a used 28-70 f2.8 l lens.
Thoughts off list please unless you feels its important enough to be on list.
cheers
Ian Reynolds
