EOS Bodies / Re: Are you really serious about 6D?

« on: December 13, 2012, 01:31:50 PM »

I personally do not understand all the hate against the 6D. I was skeptical of it when it was first announced, I am not a big fan of the set up of the 60D. We have the 6D in the store I work at, and it functions great. Sample images  look very very good, and while it is slower than the 5D III (duh) the camera itself is plenty fast enough. The build feels great, and while the sacrifice of the joystick is annoying, the function is still present in the slightly less ergonomic set button location. In the joysticks place are several buttons that used to be on the left side, I am ok with that. It is a very good camera for a decent price.

Thanks! Walking over the Brooklyn Bridge is definitely a must do activity in NY. Great views all around, and great food and stuff to do within easy walking distance in both directions. Certain parts of the city were completely black and almost abandoned, TriBeCa, Lower East Side, West Village. Nothing. Just dead. Along the main arteries such as around the Flat Iron, it was just lines of taxis and police cars making their way through the streets. All the lights were out, but they seemed to figure things out ok with out them.

Street & City / Post Hurricane Sandy black out photos.

I took advantage of the blackout and took some long exposure shots of the city last Wednesday. The 1 train was running to 34th, so I took the train down and road my bike around with tri-pod in hand. Spent a good six hours photographing! All shots were taken with a Canon 50D with 17-40 and a 10-22. I should have brought my 70-200 too! Constructive crit is always fine. If you are curious about exposure detail or any other geekyness, just ask.
