>What about in low lightThere is no unique answer here, I'll try to list what you can do:
>Get a shorter focal lenghtThe 28mm f2.8 is really cheap, and with some luck you can find the 24mm f2.8 for under 100€.
>Increase the apertureIn other words, get a fast prime: most fast primes are quite expensive, but the 50mm f1.4 is an amazing lens that costs around 100€ but often can be found for less (I'm trying to sell one in not exactly perfect conditions for 70€ for instance)
>Get a faster filmKodak ColorPlus 200 might be the best deal out there, but a 400 ISO or more film makes anything low light way easier
>Get a tripodMounting the camera on a tripod, or placing it on a stable surface, allow you to use any shutter speed
>Limit your body movement Resting your elbows on a hard surface, or even leaning against a wall allows you to reduce the physical camera shake which allows you to use slightly longer exposure times.
>Get a flashThe best compatible one, the Canon Speedlite 299T, sells for roughly 30€~40€ plus shipping.
Each solution has its own problem:
>wide anglesWell, you're using a wide angle, which might not be the best solution for some shots like portraits.
>fast primesUsing wide apertures mean you have a DoF as deep as a puddle and you might experience loss of sharpness while wide open.
>fast filmThey're way more expensive than your run of the mill 200 ISO film, also they have worse grain and also they might be too sensible for very bright scenes because the A-1 fastest shutter speed is only 1/1000th of a second.
>tripodThey're bulky and a hassle to carry around.
>bracingIt's not a safe procedure, in the sense that you can't afford to shoot much slower than what the rule suggests.
>flashThey're big, and bulky, although less than tripods, but the real problem is that you might dislike (like I do) the lighting effect of the flash.
