Re: How to speed up performance of folders?
It seems to be much faster now, but still isn't "quick". It is acceptable for the time being - I can accept that because they are 100% smart galleries pulling from different smug accounts that there is a bit of a performance hit. What's interesting now is that if I don't refresh the page for a while (I haven't timed it,… -
Re: Canon 24-105L Review
Sid, I just shoot pictures with lenses, I do not test them on an optical bench. dunno I tend to shoot the 24-105 L a half a stop down from its maximim aperture, rather than wide open, probably more out of habit from using poorer quality glass when I was younger than real need with the 24-105. I shot the 24-105 exclusively… -
Re: Out in the COLD
I have had mine out in the low teens in the Fahrenheit scale. The camera tolerates the cold fairly well, but does not take well to the transition from cold to warm as well, due to condensation as mentioned by the previous poster above. Leave the camera in your camera bag when returning indoors, or put it in a plastic… -
Want to build a quality Canon lens arsenal . . .
I just switched from Nikon to Canon, and I want to build a good lens line-up. Here's what I have so far: Canon 5D 24-104 f/4 L 580 flash I am an amateur and I like to shoot people, street shots, cityscapes, and nature - I guess a little bit of everything. I tend toward wide-angle shots. I also like telephoto, but I have… -
Re: advice for a good walk-around lens?
The 24-105 is a great lense, and is my primary walking around glass. I have the 17-40, so I'm not so worried about the wide end on my general purpose glass. The 70-200 2.8 IS *is* heavier than most other commonly used lenses...but I feel the weight is worth the image quality...and can't *wait* until I get the Mk2. :D If… -

Re: Would a 7d pay for it self?
There's been a lot of advice already offered and some of it has danced around what, in my opinion, is the only really good reason to get new equipment, "What is is that one's current equipment will not allow one to easily do that the proposed equipment will?" If one can easily answer that question, then a business case can… -
Re: A first timer's first lense
off-brand lens It is good to ask around and collect more idea to make a more sensable decision. I started with Canon 300D package with the bundle 18 -55 mm lens. It lasted me only few months then I wanted an on-camera lens for business travelling. I got the Sigma 18-200 which served for 2 years till I got my 5D. The Sigma… -
