Nice pics. Did you get a polarizer lens?
Nope, this is just the basic kit lens. Once I get used to it a bit more, I'll go buy some goodies :winkwink:

Get the polarizer lens, it is less than $20, will help with bright days. Will keep you from scratching the main lens.

Ohhh the filters. Yeah, walmart had a pack for $20 but I'm not sure if they're the 58mm or not. I'll check this weekend.

Your filter must be a circular polarizer for auto focus lenses.

That's a very good point, one I hadn't considered before - you'll just have to lie down for awkward angles like you do when taking a still shot! :D

I'm still trying to decide whether to "downgrade" from a 1DsII to a 5DII... the main reason is higher ISO/lower noise images, the 1DsII technology is 5+ years old now, but having video for occasional use would be nice too.

The thing I'd miss is the extra (and more sensitive) focus points of a 1 series.

I recommend the Sekonic L-358 light meter. This allows you to set the camera to the exact exposure (night time being the exception), and not what the camera's auto-mode guesses will make an OK photo.

I agree, good flashmeter ! :)

This is a really nice camera, I was thinking about buying a canon Xs1 or T1i.

Um, people that can afford the D5 Mk 2 that shoots 1080P video.

I love the way you are so proud of your ignorance your share it with everyone. It's sweet.

I have a 450d. I'm not sure what that is in the rebel format. I really like that second shot.

Naechy 01-26-2010 10:02 AM
Very nice camera

ShellyCrash 01-26-2010 10:28 AM
I fucking love my Canon. I have a Rebel XTi w/ sigma lenses. <3

kurbsterproductions 01-26-2010 11:34 AM
Great Pics,
Now I have the Canon 40D with extra battery grip,
Plus I also have the Tamron SP AF 28-75mm F/2.8 Lens on my Canon 40D
Best lens for the price I think... http://www.amazon.com/Tamron-28-75mm.../dp/B0000A1G05

Here's my flickr photo stream that also shows some of my other gear

OK, you wanna do something really amazing? Get off that Tamron and get the Canon L series 24-70 f2.8. It's like bringing eyesight to the blind. If you don't believe me, rent one for a day and let me know.

BritneyBangs 01-26-2010 04:34 PM
great shots :)

If I had the money, why not? I got an awesome deal on this camera and couldn't pass it up. About $430 total for a brand new XS. :winkwink:
