Here’s a few stills from some footage I’ve been shooting on my wanders around New York with my Canon 7D and 2.8 lens. I’m editing them into some shape of a video to give a flavour of New York in the summer but as with all undefined projects, when are you finished? Especially when it’s a city that keeps throwing up some amazing sights.

The two things that stand out the most for me are the camera’s low light performance which means you can capture night scenes as you see them. I’ve written about this before but it’s great to have this performance in such an unassuming camera. Then there’s the crazy weather! Stifling humidity and frightening thunderstorms. Bring on September.
