    Re: Anyone using Transcend CF cards?

    Hi guys,


    Thanks for the replies.





    This is basically why I asked. I read a few reviews complaining about Transcend cards going belly up...

    Anyone using Transcend CF cards?

    Hi all,


    Bryan posted a couple of good offers for Transcend CF cards. I've only used SanDisk. Any experiences / problems with Transcend?

    Re: B+W PL Filter: Standard or Kaesemann?

    Hi guys,


    Thanks for the replies. Basically, I was also thinking what you also pointed out: if I'm spending a fair amount on the filter anyway why not spend a bit more and get a better quality...

    B+W PL Filter: Standard or Kaesemann?

    Hi guys,


    I need to replace my polarizer (I lost the old one, don't ask...). I've used the standard B+W MRC for a couple of years now and I've been happy with it (only negative point was that,...
  6. Re: ND Filter Choices - Shooting wide open in broad daylight

    Hi,


    Also consider just a simple 3-stop ND filter, as they are relatively inexpensive. I used to use Tiffen but I found that they were affecting color way too much. I've been pretty happy with...

    Re: Suggested gear for panoramas?

    Yep, I have two of those; I did get a cheaper version though.





    Yeah, will do when I get an opportunity. Are there any L-brackets you can recommend BTW?

    Re: Suggested gear for panoramas?

    Hi,


    Thanks for the reply.





    True. I assume I have to make sure the camera + tripod are correctly leveled too... I haven't tried this yet, but you're right, I should.

    Suggested gear for panoramas?

    Hi all,


    I have been recently enjoying making panoramic shots using the Photoshop Panorama feature. So far I have just been taking the multiple pictures needed for a panorama while hand holding...
  12. Re: Canon Releases Six New L-Series EF Lenses And Accessories

    (as I said in a different forum)


    Does anyone see the irony? They announced these lenses along with the 60D. So, here's a plastic low-ish end body. And here are 6, no make them 8, lenses that...
  13. Re: Canon 300mm f4 L IS: Any Experiences On FF?

    Hi all,


    First, thanks very much for taking the time to share your experiences.


    Only drawback is that it only has older 2 stop IS.


    Of course, but it's better than no IS. :-)
  14. Canon 300mm f4 L IS: Any Experiences On FF?

    Hi all,


    I'm looking for a longer lens and I recently rented the Canon 300mm f4 L IS to try it out. I did some shooting with it on my 40D last night and, so far, I really like it. I would like to...
  15. NEC MultiSync LCD2490WUXi2-BK: Any Thoughts On It?

    Hi all,


    I'm looking for a new monitor for a new workstation I'm building. The main requirement for it is good color accuracy for photo editing (and, yes, I know I'll have to calibrate it). I'm...
  16. Re: Opinions: Ditch my 24-105 f/4 L for what? + poll

    Hey guys,


    FWIW, CR is reporting that Canon might be announcing the 24-70 2.8 IS next week:

    So, the IS vs. 2.8 discussions...
  17. Canon 500D Close-Up Lens: Questions (also: Alternatives?)

    Hi all,


    I had started a thread some time ago asking opinions between choosing extension tubes and a close-up lens (see here).


    I have a few some follow-up questions on the 500D (the close-up...

    Re: Canon 70-200 f4 USM IS

    Totally agree. The 70-200 f/4 IS is an amazing lens (one of the sharpest zooms out there). There's not much Canon can upgrade on it. There's a long list of older L lenses that Canon would want to...
  19. Re: EF 300mm f/4L IS USM or EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM?

    Hi there,


    Well, the 200mm f/2.8 L is compatible with the 1.4x extender (according to Bryan's review), which would give you an almost 300m f/4. So, why don't you also consider the 400m 5.6 L?...

    Re: Does anybody agree with this?

    Ken Rockwell is talking nonsense as usual... I sometimes want 10-20 sec exposures for waterfalls, light trails, etc. I definitely need my tripod for that...

  21. Re: Opinions: Ditch my 24-105 f/4 L for what? + poll

    Chris,





    Oh, absolutely. I have the 70-200 f4 IS (which is very sharp!) and I can crop heavily and still get great results... even with the 1.4x extender.
  22. Re: Opinions: Ditch my 24-105 f/4 L for what? + poll

    Hi Chris,





    Sure, a Canon 200-400 f/4 would be great... but how many folks will be able to spend $6,000 (what the Nikon costs) on it? I know I wouldn't be able to justify it... which brings...
  23. Re: Opinions: Ditch my 24-105 f/4 L for what? + poll

    Chris, yes, I actually totally agree with you. If you want to shoot fast moving subjects in low light (as you do), the IS will not help you therefore the f/2.8 lens is the one for you. If you want to...
  24. Re: UV Filter & Polarizer Filter Pictures

    Generally, you want to shoot through as little glass as possible. And even though it's a bit of a hassle, I always remove my UV filter before I put the polarizer on (but when I put the polarizer on I...

    Re: First pics with my new 50mm f/1.4

    Just curious, what do you like more on the 1.4 compared to the 1.8 (apart from the build quality of course!)?


    Love the cat yawning shot BTW!
