Software & Accessories / 1DX Teathered - what works best?

« on: February 11, 2013, 11:02:18 PM »

I have the 1DX and and am going to be doing a lighting workshop with my photo club.  Looking for advice on the best way to tether to a laptop running a data projector so I can show lighting setup changes relatively live.

What is the best way to connect a longer piece of Ethernet from camera to PC? what software should I run on the PC what will show the images pop on the screen as take them?

Your feedback is much appreciated!

Lenses / Worth Getting 24L & 35L both?

« on: May 01, 2012, 06:31:05 PM »

I shoot wedding and portraiture, I am targeting to shoot most of my weddings with shallow DOF and available light.  I currently have the 14L, 50L & 85L already and the standard zooms 17-40, 24-70 and 70-200/2.8.

I am looking at the getting one or both the 24L and 35L and although I am favoring the 35L for portraits but I am wondering if it is worth getting both?  Is there enough of a difference to also get the 24mm?

EOS Bodies / 5DIII Fastest SD Card

« on: March 13, 2012, 09:58:26 AM »

Reading the interview with Chuck Westfall I want to know what are the fastest SD cards that the 5DIII supports.

I will be getting a couple 16gb Lexar 600x (90mb/s) CF cards for the camera but am wondering what are the fastest SD cards after seeing that "The EOS 5D Mark III supports Class 10 SDXC and SDHC memory cards, but not the UHS standard."

I prefer Sandisk and Lexar cards.

For example at B&H the have a 16GB SDHC Memory Card Professional Class 10 UHS-I.  600x (90mb/s)

Does that mean I am not going to get full speeds from the SD card as it is UHS-I?

What SD card is the fastest that the 5DIII will support?
