Ralph Lauren Car Collection- MFA

[Tobiko]

I went to the Museum of fine arts (Boston) today and went to this exibit. It is some of Ralph Lauren's personal car collections, made up of Farraris, Mclarens, Bugatis and a bunch of other cars. Sorry about the photos beign a bit blured. The lighting was CRAP. I shot with my digital rebel in RAW for the first time, and did a bit of work fixing white balance in PS because of the tungsten light. I tried doing higher shutter speeds to help with the blur, but i couldn't get enough light into the camera, even at 20th of the seccond. It was a pain because i wanted to shoot the the entire cars but with such low apatures I could not get a good Deapth of Field. These are some of the ones I could salvage. Anyone have tips for low light?

The gull-wing Mercedes has to be one of my all-time favourite cars :)
The only options available to you are

Flash
Tripod
Faster lens

The first two aren't always appropriate, and the last can be expensive ... I recently saw some very good results from a EF 24mm f/1.4L
