Starbucks in the shops at Legacy has been where me and Kensnismo have met for the past few months to grab coffee before the show. It's only 1 mile from the Venue (classic BMW). I will be there and I believe ken as well around 6:30-6:45am

With larger apertures (aperture is the blades inside the lens that open and close to control depth of field and how much light can hit the cameras sensor during any given shot) you can blur the background by controlling the depth of field which is great for isolating the subject, and they're also better for getting faster shutter speeds by allowing more light to hit the sensor, which means less blurry photos.

Hey sorry for the late response. Just saw this post, it did not show up in my email notifications. Dallaz, thanks for taking the time to educate a newb and make a lens suggestion. I will probably go with an off brand, Canon lens are expensive.

No problem. Many off brand lenses are just as good optically, and cheaper. Most pros only prefer to use Nikon or Canon brand lenses because they are generally built tougher and can withstand getting thrown around all day.
