    I would like this. I use a Black Rapid strap, and since the camera hangs at my side the nob gets turned frequently.

    Re: 70-200: f4 IS vs f2.8 non-IS

    I would stick with the f/4 IS unless you are shooting something like sports a lot.

    Re: Blurry shot at 1/250 s with EF 50mm f/1.8

    The easy solution is to stop looking at 100% crops.


    Otherwise use a tripod.

    Re: Which lens for low-light/shallow DOF?

    Not to be flip, but set you 28-135 at 50mm and have look around through the viewfinder under the shooting conditions you describe. Zoom to 85mm and repeat. Buy accordingly.


    I agree with Daniel,...

    Re: Thin Mount Filters

    If you use wide angle lenses on a full frame camera (or 35mm), then yes get them. They minimize vignetting. Some of the slim filters require a special lens cap (B&W) that I hate. On a crop body, I...
  10. Re: best setting for Canon 18-55 lens for photos of paintings

    The 50mm 1.8 will be noticeably sharper than the kit lens. It is sharper than many of the L lenses.
  11. Re: best setting for Canon 18-55 lens for photos of paintings

    I would also consider your lighting pretty carefully. On color, use the custom white balance function on a few test frames. I would not rely on the auto white balance.

    Re: i want a 60D!!!

    I would wait for the reviews. The spec sheet misses some things I would want for the price. With the 7D cost falling somewhat, I am not really sure I would be in a hurry to buy a 60D. The 7D has...

    Re: Advice on macro set up

    If you already own an accessory flash, consider a flash bracket and flash cable.


    A cheap set on Kenko extension tubes would also be handy.

    "Removable" doesn't preclude the fact that you have to buy it. I will be very surprised if it comes with the collar. They chargeextortionrates for the things as an add-on.

    Try not to get too emotional about it. Yes, $600 for a thumbnail isextortion, but $600 won't get you far if you need to hire a lawyer to fight them. Maybe 3 hours.
