I took a few shots with the M8 and 50 lux at a Veteran's Day ceremony at our state capitol this morning. Light level was VERY low. Even the TV camera people were complaining.

Brent -

I agree with Kirk, and the quality of the series is exactly what we've come to expect of you.

Brent, what can I say? Wow. The third is a lesson to learn. The last broke my heart.
