OK here's what you should do.

Do not start shooting immediately you get there. Keep the camera in your bag. Have a drink - chat. Walk around. Make friends. What you do not want is people smiling...

I tried this exact same set up for the 7D. I use the Tascam DR-100 with my Audio Technica 4053 - great natural sound. I agree with Guy 100%.

You cannot use the Canon 50mm 1.8 lens with follow focus - I am surprised you got close.

This lens is useless. The focus ring is very very tiny and sits at the edge of the lens. I don't know what...

Bruce is that a line to mic cable with 3/8th jack? - like a -50Db stepdown? Do you have a link? Thanks.

That would be good to go from the recorder (Tascam) to the 7D. Instead of using anothe rmic...

I have used the Sound Devices 302 mixer - my regular audio guy has one, and I also own a Fostex. But for the 7D you still need a recorder and its too much equipment. It's do-able for a hacked 5D.

I don't know the lens you were using but depth of field is governed by the focal length and aperture. You have to know your lens to know its sweet spot.

Alternative to my EF-S 17-55 ... switching lenses?

I am leaning toward the...
