[erure]

^That's so flippin awesome... I wish I could get a 5D TT0TT

*saves picture of Felix*

[felinewong]

haha, noooo
dun save my picture =P

[Xarthan]

how do you think the 1.2 compares with the 1.8? mind posting up a picture of the 1.2 on ur 5d? I want to see the size relative to the body

[felinewong]

i can put the lens on my 300D, although its not the 5d, it'll give you quite a good idea
the lens was much lighter than i thought it would be

although i havent used the 1.8 version, i could tell right away the 1.2 is sharper already by the numbers, but the focus on the 1.2 is pretty slow

the 5D is not mine, i returned it already
but i still have the 1.2 with me

yea..i borrow a lot of stuff lol

[watcher]

beautiful creamy bokeh!!!

[felinewong]

i walked around with that 85 1.2 for a bit today, i'll post some of the pics a bit later
oh and i bought a new 500gb external hd, since i'm running very low on storage lol

heres 1 of the shot i did yesterday


can you believe shes only 13?

[erure]

I'm running out of space on my 500gb hd,, I want a 2tb one lol... I should probably erase some movies and junk. Anyway how the hell is that girl 13? I looked nothing like that when I was 13 (actually I still don't look anything like that even though I'm 19 ._.)

amazing lens

[Xarthan]

amazing!, everything seems really bright.







incidentally what mode does everyone here shoot at? I find myself shooting on Av most of the time.

[felinewong]

^overcast=great soft light

me too, i'm on av 90% of the time

i just use manual when i want total control

Tv when taking action shots
M in low light & flash
Av in most other situations
P when I let someone else use my camera

[EYJAYJAY]

i use mostly AV, sometime TV and M mode. M mode for most control but i find AV the easiest to use

[Xarthan]

tried out my 85mm f1.8 today. not bad

[erure]

^Is that who I think it is? X)

//edit

*screams* $8000... +_+ 21.1mp is a LOT...

They also released a new ultra-wide angle lens as well: Canon EF 14mm f/2.8L II USM Lens


//edit
I'm so p.o.'d right now because they also released the Canon PowerShot A650 IS and I JUST bought the Canon PowerShot A640 like a week ago... =___=;;;;;;;; I'm trying to make myself feel better by calling the updated model ugly but because of the added IS it's just not working...
