EX1 does well, can't say that about my body carrying it around Paris

Disney Paris huh? Do they like it? I would think anywhere in France would be the worst place for something as American as Disneyland.

I'm still watching the videos.

we all liked disneyland paris and we are sort of like disney "regulars" as we go at least once a year for the last 7.
still, the one in paris is small but the food and pastries more than compensate for the lack of quantity and size.

i am still working on the mickey mouse dances, parades and the grand finale fireworks show videos. just no time since we got back.
most of the paris videos i posted i did while i was still in paris.

Thanks for the reply. Love all the low light stuff at the tower and opera. Just shows how good our camera are in situations when others might start to fail.

Wait so your kid is into photography and plays the piano? My nephews can't even ride a skateboard that well. :)

thanks erik,

we are blessed, william is very curious!

as for the low light, many were asking what i was setting for the fireworks at disney as i waited over an hour and a half to setup. i shot at -3db and f2.4, so pretty much near optimal for the EX1. i'll be editing that one shortly...
