All the cameras have lens on them. For a walkabout I choose the lens and whatever camera is attached. They are all good cameras - it is the lens that is important.

I agree that all your cameras have lenses attached to them but as you have several cameras, what made you choose the 7d & lens for this brass band shot?

Re: Brass Band

It was the 70-200 f/2.8 lens which I use as a walkabout - it just happened to have a 7d attached

Re: Brass Band

That's a really nice image. Not the sort of processing I'd normally go for, but in this case it works really well and definitely adds something. Excellent work.
