    Possible combine 3 prime lense into one?

    Looking at the post, you are using crop body. So you may consider upgrading to Full frame for better ISO performance. I think F2.8 on FF is very good in low light.

    Dust in Viewfinder (Canon 6D)

    Use the camera in the clean room in future. Problem solved :) Joke aside. Eyesore when dust stuck in viewfinder. Also can be in focus screen. Both won't affect image quality. So I will clean when I strike Toto 1st price.

    OFFICIAL: CANON EOS 6D - User Thread - Part 3

    Thought the number of 6d selling is normal. Haha. Your guess is as good as mine. Personally I will expect it to be out from end 2015 or early 2016. Haha. Doubt Canon will release 6D2 before 5D4. If spec for 6D2 very closed to 5D3 then it will kill the sale of their 5D3. If spec for 6D2 too...

    OFFICIAL: CANON EOS 6D - User Thread - Part 3

    I am not sure what is wrong with Canon's way. I prefer it that way. Alot of fexibility. I use my flash in 2 ways AV Mode with flash - exposed for the background, it is useful if flash is not used as main light but a fill (with HSS) and lower flash exposure M Mode with flash - If you want the...

    OFFICIAL: CANON EOS 6D - User Thread - Part 3

    I only tried it on AV mode. It is programmed to try to meet your min shutter speed if possible. If it is too dark (i.e. you hit max iso), it will take a slower shutter speed. I also prefer it this way. A properly exposed shot is better than a dark shot with correct shutter speed. If shutter...

    Canon Powershot G7X

    If it is the really the size of the S series. I think it is a winner. But likely bigger than the S series. Hope not by much.

    Recommendations on new Canon equipment

    If I am not wrong, the kit is 24-70 F4 IS. Not the 2.8 mark II. Just a warning, do note the weight of the 70-200 2.8ii. It is a major "upgrade" in weight from your current kit. Quite likely you may not bring it for travelling.

    Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art lens

    Haha. Agreed. Think I also bought the 1st generation too. Now after upgraded to FF, wanted to change to 35mm or 85mm lens, but likely unable to find a buyer for this lens at a reasonable price as people wants new coating, etc.

    Sigma lens mount conversion service

    based on the website, it is so expensive. 35mm 1.4 - 15,000 yen which is ard SGD190+ Might as well sell the lens and buy 2nd hand on the other mount. This part of the announcement is more interesting "In addition to the announcement of the industry’s first Mount Conversion Service, Sigma...

    Sigma announces 35mm f/1.4 DG, 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC OS, 120-300mm f/2.8 DG OS lenses

    24mm is wider. Bigger DOF. Maybe that why. Maybe u try again with 50 1.2 at near min focus distance :bsmilie: and see if it works.

    Never use 24 70 F4 before. You can consider 24 105 kit with a 2nd hand 100mm L if you don't mind the weight and slightly higher cost. For me, I decided to take the Tamron 24 70 2.8 VC.
