PW is less %trigger but more accurate on exposure (in ETTL mode, manual is.......manual)
600 RT is 100% trigger but less accurate on exposure.
that's is what im having.. but mostly using 600RTs due to convieniences

i would go with Gitzo 2541 & RRS bh40.
i regret skimping on $ by going 2531 instead of 2541

Lenses / Re: Going to get the 24-70 2.8 II. Want a 70-200 as well

Why would you have enough money for the 1DX n 24-70II but not 70-200II??
if money is an issue with getting 70-200IIIS, I would have get 5d3+24-70II+70-200II.

if you're truly in bussiness of making 4k video for commercial purposed (and what these lenses are for), it's relatively cheap.

Lenses / Re: Renting EF 500mm f4L IS MkII for birthday vacation
« on: October 28, 2012, 02:10:35 PM »One other thing - you're shooting with a 7D, right? That means a very, very narrow AoV. One challenge you'll face is simply locating the subject you've seen with your eyes once you start looking through the VF. When you attach the hood, try putting the attachment screw straight up, then use it like a gun sight to pre-aim.
That's avery nice Trick....... thanks
And free, too! A non-free (but not too expensive) more sophisticated alternative is a red-dot sight with a Weaver-mount hotshoe adapter. I have that setup, works nicely.
i searched red dot sight.... found rifle dot use for gun.. is that what it is? . or A Link Please

shoot tight: head & shoulder (use 70-200).. use couple angle from top down (get a ladder). use lighting that's create shadown to hide/minimize double chin if she has it

Canon General / Re: Canon Can't Even Make a Billion Dollars Anymore
« on: October 26, 2012, 11:57:52 AM »I wish Canon would take note of what foreign car manufactures did; diversify their manufacturing base to their primary purchasing markets like the good 'ol US of A. I sincerely doubt that a US manufactured camera or lens will cost more to American customers plus they would get the cred of MADE IN THE USA. Many people will purchase or switch based upon this fact alone. It helped steer my purchase of a Volkswagen Passat; it was manufactured in Tennessee.Made in USA is probably better than everywhere else but Germany or Japan
