Is this room pentagon shape or is this an artifact of getting 4 walls in the pic?

A 2.8 aperture won't help you unless you are shooting at 2.8... Which I hope you aren't...

I'm wondering if the 16-35 f2.8 might help on overcast days where there isn't as much light coming thru the windows. The outside light should have little to do with underexposed images inside. I'm thinking that you didn't write what you were thinking, or you have a fundamental misunderstanding of how the exposure triangle works? FrankC - 20D, RAW, Manual everything...

The exposure flexibility and framing discipline are far more important than moving a bit faster. Besides you only set it up once and then just move and adjust it. It's very fast and the increased quality is substantial. And if you do any exposure blending, you MUST use a tripod.

It doesn't take any extra time with a tripod, you set it up once and then just carry it around from room to room. You either need to use flashes with some Photoshop masking or bracketed exposures to get good photos, I can't imagine doing it without a tripod. -John

That's what I love about Photography, the seemingly endless possibilities for creating images. To call your artistic process "wrong" would be ignorant, so I'll refrain. I will say that high quality images are derived from control. The more control you give up, the less likely you are to capture the best shot.

Not at all more time consuming and gives you full flexibility over exposure since shutter speed is no longer a concern. Plus your photos will probably require less straightening and vertical correction if they are more level, and its the only way to blend exposures if necessary.

Plus 1) your photos will probably require less straightening and vertical correction if they are more level, and its the only way to blend exposures if necessary. That's right, I usually shoot a 5 bracket series +-2 EV. At ISO100, f/9 my +2EV exposure usually comes to a 2 second shutter speed. Sometimes longer if the room is dark (bedroom with only one ceiling light). I don't like to go any longer as it can introduce some significant noise from the sensor as it heats up, but most of the time I'm not using much from that exposure anyways. IS isn't going to help with this situation. -John

I feel the tripod may be somewhat limiting because of this reason, but will try it out soon. What is limiting is your steadfast determination to work hand held. You are limiting yourself to hand holdable shutter speeds - which is why you have trouble balancing with outside light on a cloudy day. You are also limiting yourself to daytime work. No twilight or night photography because you can't hand hold it. You are making it more difficult to use multiple and/or off camera flash. You are probably limiting the precision with which you frame a room and, regardless of what you think, making brackets that can be blended effectively hand held is VERY difficult. You can always quickly remove the camera from the tripod when really needed, but, without the tripod, you lose all of the capability listed above. And a monopod won't help. That's for sports and wildlife. Canon 7d MkII, Canon 50D, Pentax 67, Canon 30D, Baker Custom 4x5, Canon EF 24-104mm f4, Canon EF 100mm f2.8 Macro, Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5, 70-300mm f/4-5.6 Di VC
