Beautiful! I think the 6D might be my next goal!
Thank you very much, Tracy, What kind of camera do you have? My Canon 6D is a great camera for high resolution and high ISO's which, under cloudy skies or darker scenarios will still give you a smooth (no noise) and sharp photo. The price of this camera keeps coming down so it's affordable now.

I have a Canon 7D...i find that I am fighting noise with much of my shots.

You have a good camera and will take great photos as long as your subject is bright enough but when you might have some shadow areas then you will have a problem with noise as I did with my Canon 60D. I had some potential beautiful shots with my old Canon 60D but because of the shadow areas of the photo I ran into a lot of noise and it turned a potentially great photo into a so-so one. Had I taken the same subject matter and had a Canon 6D at the time, the results would have been much better. I can shoot indoors without a flash and get a good sharp photo without any noise or very little depending on how dark the room is.

Thank you....I shoot in low light a lot....I think the 6D would be perfect for me.....maybe a birthday present....I'm giving it some serious thought. You do wonderful work with poor conditions.

By the way Regis, what's the thread size of the Tamron 150 - 600? Do you ever use a CP?

I don't understand "thread size"? CP?

I meant filter size and CPL (Circular Polarizer) as opposed to "CP" (my mistake).

I believe it uses a 95mm filter size. I never use any filters on my Tamron 150-600mm lens. I tried a couple of different filters in the past on my Sigma 50-500mm lens and it cut down on my resolution especially at 500mm so I gave up on those filters. They are very costly at 95mm and I paid more than $100 (Hoya). If you want results similar to the polarizing filter then you can achieve this in PP. I protect my lens by always using the hood and the lens cap plus checking my front lens surface for dust and moisture problems every time I go outdoors. To each his own. I just like the sharpness at 500 or 600mm without any lens filters.
If you are using less than 400mm (Tamron 150-600mm),
then those filters won't hurt the optimum sharpness to any noticeable extent.
