    Yupz, my 450d fas this too. I would appreciatw if 5dii has this too. The info via the large back lcd shows clearer n more info than the top lcd. Its good for ppl with old flower eyes too. No offence.

    70-200 2.8L IS II - Lens Samples from Canon!

    If the street price is 3k, im sure mki will be around 2k! Probably it will not be in production soon. Otherwise it will be like cannibalizing .. Really hope the 12-24 will be launched soon! Drooling...

    Canon UWA Lens

    Exactly! Especially with advanced lcds like 7dii and 7d, not to mention 1div, mf through the lcd is much easier and reliable! Ts can consider sigma 10-20f3.5. It performs better than 10-20 and actually the bokeh is nice.

    5D ii focusing issues?

    I cant agree more. Although the af is slow, i find it very reliable, especially on 1shot. It may turn out to be blurr at times when shooting at large apertures when we didnt use a appropriate af point. Whenever possible i prefer using mf at such apertures..

    7D or 5D Mark II?

    Actually the price difference if the 2 bodies is around S$1k and these are really 2 different bodies for different usage. Personally I feel that for general usage, 7D is a better buy due to 1. Faster and more advanced AF, hence easier to use 2. Needless to buy longer less as it benefits from...

    ISO from 1Dmk4

    Imho the pics are at least 1-2 stops better than 5dii in terms of noise. Correct me if im wrong, the details are not as high as 5dii? But its definitely very comparable. I cant imagine 1dsiv using such sensor techonolgy on a ff!

    My 1st Experience with 5D (Not a Good One)

    SometImes its really a matter of luck man. Did you shoot under direct hot sunlight? I believe aussie kinda scrching hot at year end! Bcos i kana 1 time during tracking under scrching sun. I believe 5d or 5dii might not be too reliable in more extreme situations. Of cos end of the day still heng...

    A 5D Mark II Question on AF point expansion

    Back to ts tan's question "If the six Assist AF points are so useful, why did Canon not make the default to Enable instead? Any downside of using these additional 6 Assist AF points? " if it is really effective why disabled by default? The only reason i think of is probaby it consunes more...

    85 f1.8 or 135L?

    85L exhibits less vigneting and better CA compared to 135L. But 85L's price is kinda steep as compared to 135L. But if one has large budget assignments that justify such equipment, why not 85L? Also imho the iq that 85L + 5Dii/1dsiii can really match some MF with 18 or 22 mp digital back...

    AF points lighting issue

    I noticed that on my 5dii too. But doest really bother me after sometime. I am skeptical about what csc can do sometimes. I experienced sending my equipment in for minor issue but ended up issue solved but With new problems. Just my personal experience.

    7D or 5D Mark II?

    I shoot stage performances using my 135@ f2-3.2using iso2k to 4k. Sometimes you just need 1/160 or faster to freeze action. Btw this is assuming no flash used as flash can affect stage lighting.
