Nothing special but i was keen to see how it went against the 20D. It certainly feels a bit diff to shoot with re focus & sounds.

Sun was on & off. I was expecting a decent storm but no luck.

My first time doing macro with a big flash....nice to be able to back it down a few notches.

The 30D def..def picks up the blue sky better but i would assume this is a software thing being that its the same cmos.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
