Thanks Christine. Yes, I agree that more of the reading material would have been a plus. That's the plus of a zoom. (I sometimes use the DA 16-45 in here.) When I shot in the coffee shop, I'm always inconspicuously seated in a corner. No choice of camera position possible. Here I was facing the room from an overstuffed chair that's positioned against one wall. It gives me window light as cross light. This lady was close to me and facing the window.
