    I really hope you can figure this one out as it'd be a shame for a rather expensive piece of gear to be underperforming for you. You never know, it could be the simplest of solutions that you just haven't thought about yet.


    Good luck, Ben.

    I'm positive it's me and not the expensive piece of gear, oh yes. Thank you for your condolences, Ben. I hope you're having a blast with your new camera. I'd love to see something straight out of the camera if you feel like showing me...?

    Here's a couple from this week straight out of the camera apart from cropping. I don't have much I've taken during the day yet (good old work getting in the way). I'll take some this weekend and post something for you next week.


    5D MkII, 24-70mm f/2.8L @ 28mm &amp; f/2.8, 1/1250 sec, ISO 400 (I realise the highISO/shutter speed were completely unnecessary but I forgot my tripod and had to shoot handheld)

    5D MkII, 24-70mm f/2.8L @ 35mm &amp; f/4.0, 3.2sec, ISO 200

    WOW. I'm definitely not doing that! These are wonderful. Would you share the EXIF data?
