Last night I decided to take my new friend (who is still nameless) out for a  little test drive. the night started at the Phoenix Art museum, they were hosting a free evening with live music and drinks. this part of the evening was not that exciting but the music was good and the company was better. After the art museum a few friends and I headed down the first friday lane. The recent change in setup for First Friday left me feeling a little sad. It seems this is just a social gathering now and not about art anymore. After 30 min of trying to fight the crowds like a salmon swimming up-stream we decided to try to find a bar that we could go have a drink and chat among our selves. The Roosevelt is where we ended up. The Roosevelt is mostly lit only by candles and extremely dim lighting ,which makes for a quaint atmosphere. this though is where the real test drive of my camera began. I was completely amazed at the quality of images I took from such a low light enviroment with no flash. the new sensors and light monitoring features completely took my breath away, although I might have had a few too many adult beverages. I now have a few images here for your perusal and you can decide if the camera is really that awesome or was I just a bit drunk.
