"the seiko house".. it's a small shop on the dutch side.. i bought my first camera there, and always make it a point to stop in whenever i visit. ask for ronnie.
what's with the name? the rebel series has the most confusing camera naming convention i've ever seen.. they should just switch to the international x00D naming scheme.. shoot, even keep the name and...
this got decent marks from macLife magazine.. said it's a great value if you're looking to spend less than $600.. it's 26", too

yeah, you can do most of the same stuff in camera raw if you have a lot of time on your hands.. but LR2's interface and workflow allows you to review and process a large number of photos a lot...
the megapixel argument is weak. you're paying for that full-frame sensor, not quantity of megapixels.. anyways, if you need more than 19 AF points, you should learn to focus manually. i'd definitely...
lightroom 2 is legit. if you spend most of your time in camera raw, then definitely go with that. it's fast, powerful, and flexible. there were some early bugs, but those have been ironed out. i have...
that is definitely a weird question..
i'd say go with the macro, but i only say that because you didn't mention already owning any prime portrait lenses, and the macro can make an incredible...
i started with aperture.. but quickly moved to lightroom.. it's a much cleaner and well thought-out program.. and it's faster.
my suggestion? there are free trials of both on their respective...
you are where i was a year ago.. however i decided that the wide angle was important enough to me that i'd go ahead and get the 17-55.
i still don't regret it.. i upgraded to a 5dmkII, but i'm...
the 17-55 is awesome. i love it, and now that i've upgraded to my 5d, it's a permanent fixture on my 40d, as my backup camera/lens combo. before the 5d, it was my star lens. if you can afford it, but...
do you have the vertical battery grip? that kept happening to me, and i realized i was bumping the alternate shutter release slightly..
..oh, and dude, muggle.. upgrade. seriously. you won't regret it.
i'm in the caribbean with my mkII right now, and it's a dream. just scored me a 16-35 II in st. maarten to go with it.
okay.. so they're whining about the mkII failing in extreme environments.. while in the same breath admitting that canon doesn't state that it's designed for those conditions? i love...
if we're gonna blame hardware, it's probably the lens.. but have you considered all possibilities? there's a lot of work that point-and-shoots do for you.. are you sure that you're using a snappy...
you've certainly gotten the a lot of milage out of that lens. more milage than i thought possible.. i echo oren, how was that bokeh possible?
anyways.. generally speaking i hate flower shots.....
when is too much contrast undesirable?
when it becomes like a drug that you can't live without.
those are both very good.. good enough that now i'm considering getting one of these just for the hell of it.. but then again, i have the f/1.4 so there probably isn't a point other than novelty.
...
there's still a difference.. trust me. i knew that 17-55mm like the back of my hand, and it was definitely a faster lens. you are spot on with the DOF comment, but that's not what i'm looking for.....
that's my big problem.. i adored my 17-55mm, but recently upgraded to the 5dmkII.. i bought the kit, and the 24-105mm has been great-- a super workhorse lens-- but i still can't do everything that i...
i have that setup, and it's not atrocious.. having a dedicated 100-400mm would obviously be way better, but i didn't have the money for both it and the 70-200mm f/2.8, and the latter's features were...
looks like a rather underwhelming product.. i was initially excited about it, to the end that i would have been willing to put up with the MF, as it looked like a pretty good portrait lens.. not now!...
my case has been just the opposite.. i'd classify my 24-105 as "super-sharp".. send it back. get a new copy! you neeed this lens.
<div>
no filters.. all three days that i shot it over were heavily overcast, so lighting was pretty even. we got some pretty heavy snowfall on christmas morning, so i actually shot the still...
my sister is an an ASL class in high school, and one of their regular assignments is to create music videos for the deaf community.. she has a passion for this project, in particular, so she...
so you basically have a 50d's number of pixels (roughly), crammed into something less than 1/6 the size.. great.
on that chart.. the one labeled "four thirds".. is that vanilla "four thirds" or...
