Canon 5D mk3 in Spring

[eleveninth]

Usually, I just set the zone for shooting (cam can recognize different zone for landscape or portrait, depending on your holding of the camera), and I seldom need to reset when shooting....

If I use point, I need to select and select....

Center AF point focus, and recompose technique is good for 5D cos it's center AF is the best.... and pro tend to use this technique to be fast....

which pros ah?

 

[ageha]

which pros ah?

Haha, I thought the same but was able to resist the urge to ask. lol

Anyway, only the output counts. Nobody gives a s**t what technique you use. ;-)

One of the instructor I attended a workshop, and she was sharing it with us.... she is from the US....... and she taught studio portraits....

I think the genes of photography could be a consideration for that style of shooting, but aperture cannot be too small when using that technique....

At the end of the day.... it is the image that counts.....

It will probably be the announcement of the new camera as the Canon 1Dx is rumoured to be delayed until April or May.

Yee hah!!! :cheergal:

The 5D MkIII has finally arrived in a CR3! :cheers:

I can't wait for the official announcement. All the specs are close to what I wanted except for price. The price is $500 USD over the D800 so I wonder if there is something else with the 5D that justifies this premium. Anyway, I'm glad that it's finally on its way!

 

[raydio]

Halfmoon, your flash has been announced. It's got a CR3 too! :cheers:
