Does anyone here still shoot with the Canon D30 ?? SAMPLE PIC - GoFuckYourself.com

BV · 08-23-2006, 05:29 PM

I've had my Canon D30 since 2002 and have shot probably close to 100,000 pics or more with it. In not such camera friendly environments I might add.

It's been a great camera but now It seems to be malfunctioning. I used to take bright well lit great pictures in very dark situations in conjunction with a Canon 550EX flash. Even with the on board flash my pics were great.

Now pictures in dark situations and at night come out almost totally dark. Even with the on board flash same thing. I thought my 550EX flash was petering out so this is why I tried the on board flash since it hardly gets used.

The camera still takes decent pics in the daylight, using the 550EX for fill flash, but I think they still seem dark.

Anyone have this problem?

Is my D30 finally dying?

Glad you asked. Can you hit me up?

The video part came out good but the sound part has a few dropouts. I was way too drunk and didn't notice the sound levels. So there are more than a few spots here and there where my VX dropped the sound when the sound on stage was so loud from the music. I guess the mic cancelled out. I can lay another track of music over it and it will be fine.

That was the wildest fucking wet t-shirt contest I ever filmed.

That sucks but the cams do have a short life, you should break down and get the 20d

btw if you have some shoots lined up b4 you get it fixed or replaced, I can let you borrow my 10d if you need it. The Len's and flash should interchange.

it's still very comparable

100,000 shots

that's about 4000 rolls of film

4000 rolls x price of film & developing = wow!

i used to shoot on 35mm film, i took a lot less shots back then

not to mention what a PITA scanning is.

Sell it on ebay, you would be suprised how much used cameras go for, even when you advertise it is having problems. On a side note, I am hearing good things about the Nikon D200 - also not to fond of the 20D except in bright, natural light. Pain in the ass in low light.

If you want the trusty D70s, I just picked up a second one on bestbuy.com for 899 - the whole outfit.

-check settings (sometimes accidental changes)
-meter sensor is dirty (most likely-- specially if you've been shooting in the sun all day... clean and check the ir sensors-- heat can screw it up)
