All weekend I am going to have Canon’s 50mm f/1.2L lens at my disposal. It should be good for the concerts on Friday and Saturday as well as my cousin’s wedding on Sunday.
It lets you do more with ambient light than is possible with the 50 1.8 and it is reasonably affordable to rent (not to buy). It’s also a big brute of a lens – not the sort of thing you want in your travel photography kit.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.
