Lenses / Re: New Canon USA Lens & Speedlite Rebates

« on: February 17, 2013, 04:07:01 PM »

I always find it pretty sad to hear of the plight of my fellow photographers shooting in Europe.  Europe's tax laws seem to have gotten pretty ridiculous.  I wonder at times how Europeans afford anything....

Buy in Switzerland (digitec.ch for example)

Although I don't see the rebates outside of USA yet...

Thanks for the comments! I definitely agree on the over-saturation and the under-exposure actually too when I look at it again... Nice learning curve

Here is another one, with the same lens... Open for any critisicm/suggestions! Image is almost straight out of the camera; just some cropping and a little added contrast... Less than 1 minute in total. The only total noob-mistake is that I totally forgot to disable the IS on the tripod

Long time reader, first time poster

I took this picture yesterday... I also played with LR for the first time and finally start shooting RAW. I am just not sure if I like the result. 50% of the time I look at it, I like it (because it makes the chopper look tough , the other 50% I am like "waaaaaaay overdone". Guess I have to find the balance somewhere

Lots to learn
