Spokane,

Thanks for the link, I didn't think there was a device and even over wifi, it's not going to be a real fast process.

I'll keep looking though,

Software & Accessories / USB to Camera (60D) wireless... is it possible?
« on: February 22, 2013, 07:47:58 PM »
Hello folks,

Is there a wireless USB to USB gadget out there?

I can do what is shown in this video:

Canon EOS utility - Control camera with computer Small | Large


...but I want to do it wireless. 


PC-to-Camera

 :o

I don't think anything exists yet that can do that, is there?

Thanks for the advice or links in advance, off to a small
overnight vacation, to here:

This first image is taken with the Samyang 14mm lens. I love this lens!
This was taken with a Sigma 50mm F/1.4

Gosh two posts in a row with Samyang 14mm lenses ...

*Note to self, check out Samyang 14mm lens*

Great work Niterider, like the black and white mixed
with color.  See that is what HDR and expression are
all about, GO BOLD or GO HOME!    (Does not hurt to
have $10,000 worth of equipment either, lol!)

Thanks for share!

Peace! 8)

Samyang 14mm, seven shots merged




Very nice, thanks for share and how
do you overall like your Samyang 14mm? 
Would you trade in /up or find it no
difference than a Canon lens?

Peace! 8)

I have a Bilora 1157 Professional.
It is very usefull for taking videos and cheap.
I can recommend that one.

yablonsky, thanks, but they don't sell that in the USA and I don't feel comfortable purchasing it in foreign currency.

I'm also using this one and it is great for that price. I can recommend it, too.

Gosh, that grip looks a lot like the other ones I listed.  So maybe I'll just have to take this one on myself.
I appreciate the feedback / advice. 


Last year I bought a second hand Manfrotto #3265 (it also says #222 on the grip, and "Made in Italy").
Mine is a bit like the 322RC2, but the camera sits on top of the grip handle (rather than on the side of it).

I got it for a great price, and I used it a bit in person before I bought it (from Gumtree, the Australia free online selling / buying community).  So I was happy with that, as it works well and the price was much less than new. It sits on my tripod which I bought about 1.5 years before.

The main reason I wanted to get a ball-head was for macros and 'the quick release possibility'. It complements my existing 3-way Manfrotto head very well.

Hope you'll get a good outcome with your decision and purchase.

Paul

Paul,

Thanks, that is what I'm looking for as well, versatility and quick release as a byproduct.  However, I have a heavy set-up, batery pack, mic, brackets, lens, etc. etc. I think it's be too much for that type.

I'll keep researching, and post what I get with a review.

Thanks,
Peace!  8)

TrumpetPower!,

Most excellent pictures, I'd like to see more.  Thanks for share.

I too got both the eclipse and the
Transit of Venus, they were very very
crappy pictures taken with a crappy Canon
SX20, so I won't post the embarrassing pics...,
but it was so cool to try.

Here is a CRAPPY shot of the moon a few nights ago...
I know it's blurry, it very hard to focus the telescope
with the camera attached and I was running out of time,
when I get my equipment back from the factory repair
center, I'll have more time and my own equipment, this
one was taken on a borrowed mount and tripod, so I
had to make it quick.   :o



Here is Jupiter and the 4 Galilean moons.  Again, VERY CRAPPY, but it was a real fast shot.


Peace! 8)

Thanks!  Used a 5d iii with at 24-105.  Each was a made with 7 shots from -3 to +3 EV shot in RAW and compiled in Photomatix.  I got really lucky with the weather.  15 minutes before both shots, the sun was hidden behind clouds and the reflection off the lake wasn't nearly as impressive.

Drooling... a 5D Mark III and a 24-105...  ;D 8) ::) and 7 bracket shots.   :)  WOW!

Looking forward to more pictures.

Peace! 8)
