Equipment wise I used a 5DMK2 with a 70-200L 2.8 IS USM lens.
I was shooting on manual with the aperture at 2.8 and the shutter never slower than 1/160 if I could help it. My ISO ranged from 300 right up to 1600 in the shots, well within whats acceptable on the 5dmk2, God I love that camera hahahaa
Thanks Noel. Its appreciated :) Getting the press pass was a nightmare, in that I had to jump through so many hoops, but it was totally worth it. Again everyone, I really do appreciate the very positive feedback!
