PowerShot / Re: Fast AF Canon compact for under £100

But...but...you wanted fast AF?!?

I know that he's using a 6D, but for people like me using a T3........ I bet that the M's AF is pretty decent. I'm pretty sure It wasn't aimed at people like you using a 1DX. But I hope they produce something like that to beef up their mirrorless line!

Excellent. Now I can have an inexpensive backup camera that produces good results, instead of using my crappy old Powershot A590 IS...... Looks like canon is doing something right for once. I hope they'll keep up the good work with the 70D.

Lenses / Re: 2 filters jammed together

« on: April 12, 2013, 08:09:31 AM »

use a sheet of rubber flat on a desk and place the filter / lens down onto it and twist it off instead, you can also use the grippy sole of a shoe! (Not much use for your two filters or a polariser, but more for a stuck UV on lens scenario).

I do something similar where I take those rubber cleaning gloves, put them on my hands, and slowly twist the two filters in opposite directions. There's lots of solutions on YouTube as well.

On a completely different note-

Could this camera be a replacement for the T3?

EOS Bodies / Re: Need help. Canon 60D for sports--is it better to pony up for the 7D?

« on: March 07, 2013, 07:16:02 PM »

I would wait for the 70D to come out. It will have to fil a gap that the 7D will leave when it updates to the MkII, so in that respect should be better frame rate and AF wise for sports.

One of the major complaints about the 60D is the high ISO performance, so im guesing that Canon will probably have to develop a new sensor to deal withthat. No, because it's not full-frame, It wont be close to the %D3 or 1DX, but it should at least be better (acceptable images att 6400?). Anyway, Since its a big step up from the 60D, it'll be interesting to see whether they include one or two Dig!c V processors, and what the frame rate will look like.
