EOS Bodies / Re: 1dX dust in viewfinder

« on: August 19, 2012, 04:57:03 AM »

Dust on the AF focus screen is incredibly irritating but is something that one needs to live with! Rather don't touch as this may very well make it a lot worse, better take it into a canon service center.

Does anyone have some reliable (proper) downloadable link to get the shutter count on the new 5D Mark III using Mac?

EOS Bodies / Re: The other 5D Mark III polls sucked... here's a better one...

« on: June 25, 2012, 04:26:47 PM »

The confusion is the statement, "I'm not buying a 5D Mark III because...," followed by an answer of, "I already bought one (or more) and I'm using it, what's your problem?"

Well that was there so that all of the folks that have one could tick a box rather than post

But in all seriousness, that line adds a lot of value to the poll, don't you think?

Too many options on the poll.

Why is that a problem for you?

Because it waters down the effect that is trying to be created here. Now there are lots of "scattered" votes thus detracting from seeing results more clearly.

Some people have budgets and actually stick to them.

Budgets are there to be broken.

The 24-105 is great for walking around, it's a "do it all" lens. Remember when going on holiday, one doesn't want to be carrying around so many things, so limit it to 1-2 lenses.

Lenses / Re: Did I get a bad lens...or user error?

no it doesn't mean you got a "bad lens", sometimes it just shows that error once and then pretty much never again

Why has there been such a delay on the 24-70 2.8L II? I'd love to add this lens to my kit.

Canon need to be a bit easier on their pricing of lenses. If this is going to be another lens at $2200 then I think we'll just all cry

I just hope for you 1D X people that Canon is really stepping up the production process and getting many thousands of them out there. You've all been waiting so patiently.
