Well I appreciate that compliment. It's actually just a plain, old 10D with a 100mm f/2.0. I was able to keep the iso down to 400 and still have a faster shutter than you'd think. I can get exifs later if you want. No monopod, no Noise Ninja. Just good, old-fashioned fast glass. (The new 20Ds would have less noise than this at 1600, no lie.)
