I hope it's either the 5D Mark III (or equivalent) or the EF 200-400 f/4

washed out = overexposed. So I believe he means the sky is overexposed which was caused by they sun
what do you mean?damn ions! you keep posting beautiful pictures!sory looks like to me sky is washed out.
Thinks he means it because the sun ruins the picture a little bit.
ah, thanks for the explanation guys
.i don't find it disturbing. it's not really that overexposed, as the sky is still blue at the left part of the photo (it's not plain white like you see in some other photos). anyways, i guess it's a matter of taste.

great pictures ions! what's the distance between you and your subjects? did you use an extender or have you cropped the images? i'm curious because a couple of weeks ago i used the lens (at 200mm) to capture a deer, but i really couldn't get close enough to get a nice shot 
since then i'm considering to get a 400mm f/5.6

Software & Accessories / Re: Neck strap alternatives
« on: August 12, 2011, 09:58:35 AM »One last question: any suggestions for quick-change from the strap to using a monopod? So far, I've just been resting the butt of the connector atop the monopod if I need to take the shot quick but that obviously isn't as stable.last week i bought the FastenR-T1 so i could more easily use the r-strap with my tripod. i don't use a manfrotto quick release plate and it fits just fine. there's only one thing you should watch out for, on the screw of the FastenR, there's a kind of a little bump on the bottom (see attachment) wich is pretty annoying. i had to buy a new QR plate so it would fit. but i'm really happy with it now

Site Information / Re: What originally brought you to canon rumors?
« on: August 10, 2011, 11:02:45 AM »I tend to become a little obsessed once I have a new interest or want to reconnect with an old one. Some people may think of that as somewhat "unhealthy" or of me being a "gear head" with a tendency towards GAS ("gear acquisition syndrome"). Oh well. But I'd respectfully disagree. I still do actually take pictures, ride my bicycle, play my guitars (or work at my day job...). So to me getting as much technical background of things and making informed decisions when buying (rather expensive) items is part of the deal - and part of the fun.
hehe, i have exactly the same! that's also the reason why i came to this site. to get info about new camera's (especially the 7dmk2) to be released.

EOS Bodies / Re: A Breakdown of Rumors
« on: August 10, 2011, 10:43:01 AM »Personally, I don't find it interesting to have a small body with big lenses.
it really does not look comfortable
i would also prefer a 'normal' camera body
