Eh · Dec 23, 2013

I us my Mark III mainly for portraits but I'm going on a trip and want to take videos of my daughter. Will be using mostly nifty fifty and 30 mm IS USM for lenses. Could someone rundown what settings they would use for basic video? I read the manual and the choices make me dizzy. Just want basic memories of my kid, not an art film. Any help greatly appreciated.

I just noticed an interesting phenomenon with my 70D. Whenever there is no battery in the camera, the optical viewfinder becomes blurry and a couple stops darker.

At first I thought the lens stops down and loses focus without power, then quickly rejected that idea because no lens works that way, and the ovf is darkened even without a lens attached.

I am now rather curious about the two questions at hand:
1. What mechanism makes the ovf lose focus in the absence of power? I was not aware there were any focusing components in the system.
2. What in the world would darken the image without power? Perhaps some reverse electrochromic layer that is necessary for the lcd overlay to work, but then why would they lighten 95% of the display with power, rather than just darken the 5%, like the standard lcd overlays?

Hi all!
I am new in this forum, I have just registered because I would like to hear your suggestions.

Last year I bought a T3i, together with a EFS 18-55/3,5-5,6 IS II and a EFS 55-250/4-5,6 IS II.
I really like it, and I used it a lot. I use it mainly when I travel, what I do very often due to my work.

I always liked to take photos, but I am not a Pro. Fortunately, this year I could save money to invest in my equipment. I thought I could buy a new camera - first I thought in changing to a full frame, but my budget is not enough. Then I thought I could buy the new 70d, as I could buy the body only and use my EFS lens. My idea is that after some time, I could start buying EF lens (70d supports both EF and EFS) and later on, I could change to a full frame (if I see I will really take advantage of the difference).
I would like to take better quality pictures, and honesty I don't care very much of new features as the built in Wi-Fi. Do you think I will get any difference with a 70D?

But I also thought that I could invest in a new lens instead of a new camera. I read good comments about the EF-S 15-85/3,5-5,6 IS USM. I would have a longer focal length lens, and wider.

I would like to hear from you what would you do - jump to a 70D or invest in this (or other) lens?

thanks!

For a little fun, wander over the Photo Rumors. He's running a "worst camera of the year" poll.

I voted for that goofy add-on lens that Sony is trying to sell to smart phone customers, but it looks like it is a distance second to Hassellblad's latest disaster. Oh, and the Canon Powershot N is in fourth.

The film is another lens, the 70-200. But I have the same problem with my 24-70.

Focus scale doesn't always move when I turn the focus ring. Any ideas what could be wrong? Is it common?

Help! Direction? Assistance?

My 5d mkIII is acting badly, started a week ago, err 20. Brought her home like an injured bird as the battery pull in the field and power on and off did nothing. Pulled the lens and the mirror was raised a bit, pressed down as if I was trying to move a butterfly's wing and no movement, pushed up and it went all the way up easy. Pulled the battery and all was well. Did some test shots, noted an odd addition to the shutter sound but thought it was ok and thought I would get a second opinion. Took her to a local shop known for excellent work, they gave her a thumbs up, "spring tension is good" and "no odd noise".

Just the other day I was shooting my wife in a Double Road Race (a 10k and then 5k run) and found that she (the camera not my wife) was locking up again with err 20 then err 1 and then err 20 again. I flipped to silent multiple-exposure rather then normal multiple-exposure and found I could get about 10 continuous shots before lock up and error, yeah! And of course the odd shutter noise was gone. Dah, silent mode.

Stats are:
Purchased July 2012, yes, out of warranty, spoke to Canon and they asked that I send it to Irvine for non warranty repair.
43,800 shutter actuations
Factory Canon Battery
Locks up with all lens and flash (or not) combo's
SanDisk 16gb, Extreme Pro 90/Extreme 60
Most recent Firmware update
The camera could be mistaken for brand new, she is my baby and receives all the benefits associated with this title! My wife calls her my "other girl-friend".

Side notes:
Last lock up (thought it would not free up too) I saw that the shutter was completely closed and the mirror was all the way up too.
The camera will not perform "manual sensor cleaning" from main menu. And will not lock up the mirror.
When engaging "live View" the mirror lock up sound is normal but the release is when it sounds odd. This is the new odd sound of the shutter movement.

Today I am going back to the local good shop with this new info in hand but I also wanted to see what and if anything anyone here may know on this? Any opinions are welcome? Well, besides someone telling me I should have bought a Nikon.

Thanks,

Chris

<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">The rubber of the viewfinder of some units of the Canon PowerShot SX50 HS compact digital camera may change color (turn white) after a short period of time. Customer support for this phenomenon is described below.</span></p>
<p>We take great pride in the quality and performance of our products. We offer our sincerest apologies to any customers who may be inconvenienced.</p>
<p><b>Phenomenon</b>

The rubber section of the viewfinder of some PowerShot SX50 HS digital compact cameras produced in certain lots from September 1 through November 15, 2013 may turn white after a short period of time. We have determined after inquiry with the rubber manufacturer and internal analysis that the white substance is zinc bis (N,N’- dimethyldithiocarbamate).</p>
<p>Zinc bis is not used in the production of this product. The reason for the depositing of this material was the use of an improper rubber accelerator by the manufacturer of the rubber viewfinder. As a result the rubber section of the viewfinder may turn white due to a chemical reaction with the rubber accelerator and other substances. High temperature and high humidity may contribute to this condition. Zinc bis (N,N’- dimethyldithiocarbamate), which becomes deposited on the rubber surface, is created as a result of this chemical reaction.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p><a href="http://www.canonrumors.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Canon-PowerShot-SX50-HS-Digital-Camera-Viewfinder.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15346" alt="Canon-PowerShot-SX50-HS-Digital-Camera-Viewfinder" src="http://www.canonrumors.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Canon-PowerShot-SX50-HS-Digital-Camera-Viewfinder-575x284.jpg" width="575" height="284" /></a></p>
<div></div>
<p><b>Affected products</b>

Only a small fraction of the PowerShot SX50 HS compact digital cameras – the ones containing the improper rubber accelerator – are affected by this phenomenon.</p>
<p>This phenomenon may occur in cameras of which the first and second digits from the left in the serial number are “69”, “70”, or “71” and the sixth digit of the serial number is “1”.

(Example serial numbers of cameras that may be affected: “69xxx1xxxxxx”, “70xxx1xxxxxx”, “71xxx1xxxxxx” (‘x’ can be any number))</p>
<p><a href="http://www.canonrumors.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Canon-PowerShot-SX50-HS-Digital-Camera-Safety-Recall-Serials.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15347" alt="Canon-PowerShot-SX50-HS-Digital-Camera-Safety-Recall-Serials" src="http://www.canonrumors.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/Canon-PowerShot-SX50-HS-Digital-Camera-Safety-Recall-Serials-575x215.jpg" width="575" height="215" /></a></p>
<div></div>
<p><b>Caution on use</b>

The amount of zinc bis (N,N’-dimethyldithiocarbamate) deposited on the affected units is minimal. However, depending on one’s health and physical condition, in rare cases it is possible for zinc bis to cause allergic reactions, such as a rash, when it comes in contact with the skin of sensitive persons. In addition, if the eyes make contact with the substance, symptoms such as red eyes may develop.</p>
<p>As a precautionary measure, thoroughly wash your hands and rinse your eyes with water if they have come into contact with the rubber part of a viewfinder that has turned white. If any medical symptoms develop, please consult your physician immediately.</p>
<p><b>Support</b>

If the camera meets the serial number criteria listed above, the product will be inspected and repaired free of charge. If you own one of the affected cameras please contact our Customer Support Center.</p>
<p>This information is for residents of the United States and Puerto Rico only. If you do not reside in the USA or Puerto Rico, please contact the Canon Customer Support Center in your region.</p>

At my local Bestbuy in Applevalley, MN the camera specialist informed me that the 6D & 7D are now clearance items (eg $1499 - 1550) to clear inventory for the mark II iterations - are you guys/gals hearing the same thing in your respective markets? :-\

Bohns · Dec 22, 2013

Hello all !

I use an EF 300 f2.8L II ii, with and without extenders 1.4x and 2x, both v.iii, on a 5D iii.
All combinations have been micro-adjusted using Reikan Focal software.

I generally have pretty sharp images. But sometimes, I feel the bokeh from the wide open 300 + TC 2x very "dirty", both in front of and behind the depth of field area, despite the target remains sharp enough. This is not always happening, but more systematically when the target is quite far (above 50 meters).

I do not notice the same behavior with the wide open 300 + TC 1.4x.

I indeed have 2 questions :

1) Is there a recommended target distance for using the wide open 300 + TC 2x, beyond which the image quality would degrade fast ?

2) Would you maybe advice to replicate AF micro-adjustement at a longer distance (50 m for example) than the 10x to 50x the focal length which is usually recommended (I did it at about 18 m, because my garden cannot allow me more) ?

Thank you for sharing your experiences and advices,
Stef.

Soccerplayer Jake Livermore (Hull City UK) damages the camera of Richard Heathcote

He committed to pay the 7000 euro damages and promissed to donate the same amount to charity

Interesting is why the 1-serie camera, standing behind the goal, is taped. Is it a new 1-serie model or....just photographers habit....

I've only bought one sigma before, a 50mm. Just picked up the 18-35 F1.8 and had this for de-centering.

http://www.extremeinstability.com/1835.jpg

Wondering if anyone else have had copy variation issues. The difficulty I had explaining de-centering and the issue to the camera store people upon returning, didn't make me eager to try another one from them that might also end up needing returned. They'd never heard of decentered before, at two of the stores...actual camera stores. "You mean it isn't focusing right?" It was pretty sad. I even took the full size images down and am not even sure they got it then. That above I think was F2.8, it was at 18mm. One framed in upper left corner then just reframed same area to the right side, which was horrible. So this has me wondering if it's common or not common with this one.

Keith over at <a href="http://www.northlight-images.co.uk/index.html" target="_blank">Northlight Images</a> has completed his review of the Samyang/Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 lens. This <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/769532-REG/Rokinon_FE14M_C_14mm_Ultra_Wide_Angle_f_2_8.html/bi/2466/kbid/3296" target="_blank">lens retails for $329 USD</a>, compared to <a href="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/519474-USA/Canon_2045B002_Super_Wide_Angle_EF.html/bi/2466/kbid/3296" target="_blank">Canon’s $2395 EF 14mm f/2.8L II</a>. If you’re in the market for an ultrawide angle lens for your full frame camera, and don’t mind doing a bit of work yourself, this may be the lens for you.</p>
<p><strong>Says Keith

</strong><em>“If you’re interested in the Samyang 14mm (or whatever it’s called where you are) then consider what it is you want to use it for?</em></p>
<p><em>For some people the lack of AF and having to manually stop down the lens to the working aperture will be a show stopper.</em></p>
<p><em>However I found it perfectly easy to use out and about, by making use of good depth of field at f/8 and an ability to roughly estimate distances.</em></p>
<p><em>Exposure was set manually, and relies on the fact that if the light changes enough to need to alter the shutter speed or aperture, then you should easily be able to notice it. It’s hardly difficult with a bit of practice, and you’ll develop a much better intuitive feel for scene lighting, which is no bad thing.”</em></p>
<p>Manually focusing  a 14mm lens on a full frame camera is pretty easy if you stop down to f/5.6 or f/8. Depth of field is quite forgiving.</p>
<p>Is it worth a little extra work to save $2000? to a lot of people it probably is. This is not a focal length most people would use a lot. It’s true that up close, you have to take a bit of care, but with a little practice, it shouldn’t be too difficult to figure out.</p>
<p>In the end, you’re going to get great looking images for a fraction of what Canon is asking you for. If you buy the Rokinon and find that 14mm is something you end up using a lot, go on and upgrade to the Canon, it’s a pretty great lens too.</p>

DanielW · Dec 21, 2013

Hi everyone,
I own a 60D, and bought a S120 about a month ago. Even though I like the little camera a lot for its "pocketability", it has given me an unexpected problem: identical filenames. But it gets much worse...
I used to rename my photos when importing into LR in my own way, which was Name/place - date - file number (e.g., Patricia - 2013 dec 12th - 001); I also had separate folders for each subject, like family, events, trips, portraits and so on. I decided to drop this system because subjects often overlap and I'd end up not knowing if I should put some file in the 2012 Christmas or Family folder. I then started keeping the original files in a single folder, stopped renaming at all, and was waiting for an opportunity (oh well, laziness) to bring old files from HDs and DVDs to that folder.
Making a long story short: now my computer is a mess, and so are my external HDs and DVDs with backups. (I even have duplicated files with different names in different folders.)
So, I'd really appreciate some suggestions:
- How do you suggest I name my files?
- Should I rename, after all?
- Should I just let LR put the files where it wants when importing and never mess with folders? Won't it make it harder to find the files later?
- Is it a bad idea to have them all in a single folder? I've seen people sorting files by year and month, but I'm not sure it makes sense to me since it's unlikely I'll remember when I took the photos.
I need a system that makes sense and that is unlikely to be changed in the future, and can't come with a good one on my own. (I'm sure you have no doubt about it by now...)

Sorry for writing too much.
Thank you!
Daniel

<strong>Hybrid EVF Coming to EOS?


</strong>There is a new rumor floating around about the next high end, and high megapixel camera from Canon. Apparently this camera will have a hybrid EVF, optical for stills and electronic for video purposes. Megapixel count is said to be 35mp or higher, though the exact number isn’t known.</p>
<p>The moniker for the camera? The EOS-A1, though it’s unknown if that’s just the prototype name.</p>
<p><strong>CR’s Take

</strong>I’m sure there will be a time when Canon starts to experiment with different solutions for the viewfinder in cameras. If the above technology is an actual thing Canon is testing, I’d expect to see it in a Cinema EOS DSLR first. Perhaps such a feature that could differentiate it from its standard EOS cousin? Speaking of which, we have been told to expect a new Cinema EOS DSLR in 2014, and most likely at NAB in “development” form.</p>
<p>A grain of salt on this one, this is a rumor from another web site.</p>

Dadof3 · Dec 21, 2013

Hello:

As a Father of 3, I'm looking to upgrade my old Rebel XSi, to a new Canon EOS camera. I'm an amateur in every sense of the word and a majority of my shooting (and video), obviously involves my kids and their activities (sports, Dance, etc.) I've been looking at the new Canon 70D but I've also been following the threads about the potentially new 7D Mark II. I must admit to my gadget disease, the uncontrollable need to have the latest technology, and I've been financially preparing for this purchase, so cost is a secondary issue. The question I have for the masses, do I go with the 70D or will the potential technical features of a 7D Mark II be worth the wait?

Thanks in advance for any input!

<strong>An E-Book from Glenn Bartley


</strong>Our friend Glenn Bartley, who wrote <a href="http://www.canonrumors.com/reviews/review-canon-ef-600mm-f4l-is-ii/" target="_blank">our review of the EF 600mm f/4L IS II here at Canon Rumors</a> is offering our readers his wonderfully indepth, but easily understood <a href="http://www.glennbartley.com/PostProcessingEbook_CR.html" target="_blank">post processing e-book at a discounted price of $20</a> (Save $5).</p>
<p>Glenn is in the top 1% of nature, and especially bird photographers that I know of on the planet. Be sure to <a href="http://www.glennbartley.com/gallery.htm" target="_blank">check out his work to see some wonderful images</a>.</p>
<p>I personally found the e-book easy to understand, but has corrected a lot of my bad habits. I’ve learned a ton about highlight recovery and dealing with curves to really get the subject to pop. Everything in the book is easily accessible to people like me that don’t really love the art of post processing, but certainly love great results. Gaining an understanding of how things work, will make you more efficient with your post processing in the future, which will give you more time to shoot.</p>
<p><strong>What’s in the book?

</strong>This E-book is designed to share the strategies and techniques that I have developed over the years to improve and simplify Post Processing. In my own processing I use primarily two software platforms (Breezebrowser and Adobe Photoshop). As such, this book is aimed primarily at photographers hoping to learn to use Adobe Photoshop. However, many of the skills and techniques in this book could also be transferable to other software platforms.</p>
<p>The chapters of this book are organized in a logical way to work through the following steps:</p>
<ul>
<li>Creating a logical and efficient file management system</li>
<li>Culling images effectively and selecting your best work</li>
<li>Converting RAW files</li>
<li>Processing images in Adobe Photoshop (many skills transferable to Adobe Lightroom)</li>
</ul>
<p>This guide is for you if you want to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Spend less time at the computer</li>
<li>Learn to use Adobe Photoshop</li>
<li>Streamline your processing workflow</li>

Greetings. I own about half a year 5D Mark III, I bought it new, has been used in a conventional manner. After a few weeks I noticed that the photos of the 5D Mark III, they look especially especially when shooting with teleobjetívmi. Pictures showed rozne blot and blur in different parts of the image, for example, in one part of the image was sharp pictures at Swan blurry or like compressed than blob. Compared to my previous camera Canon 5D mark II. I also noticed that when shooting at sunset when I photographed objects that reflect light tower blocks formation of a strong blowout splotchy yellow colors that are not in rawe not be compensated yet know that such a blowout I normally corrected in the old 5D mark II. I shoot in raw format without noise reduction. This problem can be seen especially when shooting with a telephoto lens at a greater distance I tried to angle Canon 300 mm 2.8 IS and Canon 400 mm 5,6 Sorry for my anglish....

I bought a Samyang 14mm f2.8 wide angle lens for my 5D3 and it arrived yesterday.

This is the first ultra wide angle lens I have used and as we know it is a manual lens so no AF.

On my first test with this lens I have had real trouble focusing - this seems impossible using the viewfinder and I had to resort to using live view in magnified mode to lock on to a foreground subject.

Any people out there on the forum got this lens and have any tips for focusing with it?

I am really please with the quality but don't want to spend five minutes at every shot getting focus.

Dear community, I need your help:

I am looking for an well built mobile flashlight device set (Bouncer,beautydish,... - as much options as possible) that can be adapted to an Canon EX550 or 580 flash. I own a mobile flash-powered softbox, but more is needed. The adapters should be robust.
My youngest son needs it for school´s art class.

Much Thanks
