You remember quite correctly.
The lighting was just on the edge for a 5D and I took a mix of flash and
ambient shots. I preferred the look of the ambient shots, but got a fair
amount of blur from subject motion. With 5DII or D3 and/or a faster long
lens, I wouldn't have needed flash at all.

In retrospect, considering Julia's expectations and the size images she
ended up pleased with, I could have shot the whole thing without flash
at ISO 1600 & 3200. But I didn't have a chance to do a dry run, the
540EZ was a new toy and I had it ready to go.
