P&S Camera

Many people like to use P&S cameras for those times when one feels that discretion is the better part of valor.

I am not one of those peoples ... I want every shot I take to have the highest IQ.

Case in point- My daughter's HS graduation ceremony, (Santa Margarita Catholic High School), was at UC Irvine's Bren Event Center. It was a very large setting and very dark ... but, (the big but), shooting at 3200 ISO and with the 70-200 2.8 I was able to pull out some shots that are memorable for my daughter and family. I don't think the images would have been possible with a P&S.

Remember that discretion is only for a moment, but your images will last a lifetime.
