    canon5d mark 2

    Wonder if Canon Service Centre had changed the firmware in my camera when I send it for AF check. Now the first Menu tab comes with "Factory Menu" and the firmware version reads 6.9.3 9F(00). EOS Utility cannot detect the camera now... need to visit the centre again???

    Official 5DMKII users thread

    ... make sense to get 2 bodies this case... just that it seems high risk getting a 2nd hand... If "suay suay" the sensor died after purchasing (because the last owner use it as a spare camera for mainly video taking and that the sensor could get very hot after prolong use), the original few...

    Thank you biggorilla :D The circuit board in the camera for operating the flash was faulty... replacement cost about $300+ ... This will be the first and the last time that I buy a second hand camera. Come to think of it, when we were using film cameras, the lens was the most important part...

    Thank you guys for your replies. I have set all Cn Functions on both the flash and the camera to the original but the flash still goes full blast over exposing all shots. The camera cannot detect the flash and the flash display shows TTL all the time. Will be sending to the service centre...

    Any kind soul out there knows why 580EX cannot change from TTL to ETTL by pressing the "Mode" button when attached on an EOS 5D Mark II? Some setting problem? There is no loose contact at the Hotshoe. Could it be an upgrading of firmware to 2.09? Thank you!

    Canon 24-105L Lens

    ... alamak... there is this 1.6 times "Focal Length Multiplier" effect on 500D that causes 24-105mm to become 38.4-168mm (found this info from dpreview.com). My film SLR lens goes from 28-85mm... no wonder 500D kit lens starts from 18mm... If buy 24-105mm, may have problem taking scenaries or...
