EOS Bodies - For Stills / Color Differences, 5D3 vs 1D4

« on: April 27, 2013, 03:58:17 PM »

Colleagues: I shoot 5D3 and 1D4. I am a pretty experienced shooter. Recently on a mildly cloudy day I shot several hundred photos with each, under very very similar conditions (photos made from a boat on a lake of other boats on the same lake.) The general hue was mildly greener and muddier in the 1D4 than the 5D3. The image quality had no 'pop', and the images from the 5D3 were clearly superior. I carefully compared the settings (both 'standard'), the ASA, etc. I was able pretty much to correct this in Lightroom, though the white balance really did seem "off" in the 1D4. Does anyone have experience, insight, or further testing instructions they couljld offer me? Thank you for your time.

Third Party Manufacturers / Request advice on weather-sealed 35 mm lenses

« on: December 10, 2012, 11:01:54 AM »

Colleagues: I would request your advice on a 35 mm prime for Canon . I shoot 5DMkIII's and 1D Mark IV in challenging outdoor environments--dust, rain, sand--but am also a bug on sharp and contrasty lenses. Your thoughts on Canon's 35 L 1.4 vs. Sigma's 35 1.4?  Thank you for your time.
