Re: Canon 7D high speed continuous shot problem
The things that can affect burst speed are: * Shutter speed, longer shutter speeds result in a slower burst rate. * High-ISO noise reduction, at the strong noise reduction setting it has a noticeable effect on the burst rate. * I think that the 7D has the ability to detect light flicker and implement a strategy to prevent… -
Re: Three special folks...
Thanks to all. I do feel like I have a treasure with these photos. Grandma Darlene kept saying that she wished she had a birthday gift for my birthday that is coming up... and I kept saying that I just felt so glad about the photos they let me take, that really no gift could compare. We had a great visit. To Scott- I flew… -
Re: Advise needed
I don't think that the Canon 5D MKIII has any sort of intrinsic wireless flash capability, either optical or radio wireless flash, so I think that if you want E-TTL you will want at the very least a Yongnuo ST-E2 wireless optical transmitter (commander/controller), which I believe that the Speedlite 600EX-RT can slave… -

Football and shooting outside in general are foreign concepts to me. I'm used to shootiing ice hockey -- fast action, but in a dark cave through a scratched… -
Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer's Life 1990-2005
It's showing now here on the San Diego Museum of Art. I went yesterday and I liked. I didn't care much about the small B&W photos about her personal life with Susan Sontag, but I liked most of her professional photos. Here's my general impressions, in no particular order: - You become a very popular photographer (artist),… -
