EOS Bodies - For Stills / Help needed: Very slow live-view @ Canon 6D

« on: January 25, 2013, 05:14:13 AM »

Need some help:

The live view of my new 6D (I bought it, because I needed an new Cam soon) is VERY slow. Takes about 3-4 seconds to get sharp. Using Canon 100mm 2.8L Macro,  Sigma 180mm 2.8 Macro.


How can I make it faster?

EOS Bodies - For Stills / Problem: slow AF 6D

« on: December 17, 2012, 06:23:33 AM »

Need again some help:
 My new 6D suffers from an very slow AF function. I tried with 70-200 2.8 II and 100mm 2.8L. It takes a lot of time to get the picture sharp. Only the Center AF point is semi-fast, double the time of my old Cam.
When I choose an decentral AF-point, it takes more than 2 seconds in an good light situation. Both lenses work well on my old Camera.
I performed an reset, but nothing happened.

Send it back (own it now for 1 week), or get it repaired?

EOS Bodies - For Stills / Looking for an new Camera

« on: September 22, 2012, 08:43:58 AM »

I´m suffering from an broken 7D, as my bike crashed into an car this week and the camera case and the mirror were pulverized.

Now I am looking for an new Camera.
But I do not want to buy an 7D again. The 7D was fast, but mine was suffering from bad noise and moire.

I need an fast AF, as many AF-fields as the 7D, but with an better image quality.
I take photos from birds, my children and landscape. My son from jets and at car races.

1.6x crop factor would be prefered, but is not recommended (no must).

Waiting for an 7D II???
But will it appear in the near future???

Saving money for an 5DIII???

But I own some EF-S lenses (macro, wide angle, common zoom), also some L-lenses for FF.

What is your advice?
The 5DIII is very expensive for me, otherwise I would buy it. Or wait for an 7DII...?

Software & Accessories / Carrying comfort F-Stop Satori EXP vs. normal hiking backpack ???

« on: September 10, 2012, 02:41:09 PM »

Hi!

How comfortable is the F-Stop Datori EXP to carry a day long, if you have to carry things for your children too?

Or should I buy an normal hiking backpack withan Camera inlay?

Like the German company Deuter: An Deuter Futura Vario with an F-stop inlay ICU?

I read that somewhere below.

What do you think?

Software & Accessories / Camera compartment - manufacturer?

« on: September 02, 2012, 01:00:14 PM »

Hi!
As I´m looking for an compartment to store some pieces of my photographic equipment, I found the shop "f-stop". They sell compartments in different sizes. But they are a little bit expensive.

Are there other manufacturers of camera compartements, like the "F-stop" ICU?

Software & Accessories / Bag/pouch for Camera & lenses

« on: August 19, 2012, 05:09:09 AM »

Hi!
I want to buy an pouch or bag to store my equipment in my backpack (Futura Vario 45+10 SL) . I own an EOS 7D with an vertical grip and need a bag or some pouches for an 10-22mm Sigma, an 28-70mm Canon and an 70-200mm Canon II.
Can you give me some advice, whether I should buy separate pouches and which one, or an padded inlay where I can put all together into the backpack?
The pouches should be well padded but not much bigger than the lenses are. Or is there an small bag, that is a little bit compressable, so that I do not loose to much room in the backpack?
I do not want to buy an fotographic-backpack, because I have to store a lot more for my children.

Thanks a lot
