I havent seen this until today? seems like an insane amount of noise happening. when i bump up the ISO it goes away a bit but thats because the image gets lighter. im shooting at iso 125 here. f4 1/50

the youtube gets loaded as super dark so here is the youtube video but also a screen grab from quicktime

Noise canon 5d Mark iii vertical lines

tried attaching the photo

Canon 5d Mark iii 1080p normal compression 24fps it showed up with both 24-105 and 16-35mm lenses.

Hey guys, I was looking for a more general forum (not specialised in any category) but this will do since many of my images are landscape.

Anyway, I am putting together a portfolio (using wookmark+lightbox2) where I will put my best pictures, not necessarily to market myself but rather as a more permanent place than Flickr. I have already removed about half of the pictures I initially put up after some initial feedback. I guess you will have more ideas on pictures to remove, either because not really good (something I want you to tell me) or simply doesn't fit in a portfolio.

I have avoided cats and dogs which I understand is very important.

Thanks for any comments/suggestions!

EDIT: Most pictures are taken with 5D2/5D3+24/1.4L II+70-200f/4L IS, a few with Fuji X100

Do you all who owns the full frame bodies buy extended warranties with your purchase ? Is it worth the 109$ on extending warranty by 3 years....

I assume the Canon photography division, like any big consumer oriented corporation, has some sort of market research department. Does anyone know how Canon figures out what their potential customers want? Do they use surveys, focus groups, round table discussions, lurk on photography forums like this one? It's a complete mystery to me.

Rather than speculate, perhaps someone here has had enough contact with the Canon marketing people to offer some insight? If you know the answer, please state how you know.

Hello, So i just received my 5D3 and haven't yet played with the video feature yet. I've seen some amazing videos out the 5D2 and 5D3's. So questions for a beginner like myself:

Where do you start? I know the movies use the 24fps
What Lens to use? I own the 50 1.4, 135L f.2, 24-105L
What about the Aperture and Shutter speed values?
What Mode? Manual, Av, TV
Focusing tips/techniques?

Please point me in the right direction.

Thank You!

Amazon currently has the G1x for sale for $730 shipped. I think that's a pretty good price, especially for those of us that have Prime shipping and don't pay tax.

I'm not sure this is particularly relevant, however Canon Rumours was carrying a banner ad for a British camera retailer offering the 5D3 at £2799 which seemed a favourable price. It boasted that stock was genuine UK imports.

I followed the link, and not being familar with this particular supplier I clicked on the "About Us" button on their homepage. I received the following message:

Page you are trying to check does not exist. Your IP (edited out by myself) has been logged for security reasons and will be used in case of any INTRUSION detected on our servers

This may be merely a technical thing, bit it would hardly persuade me to part with my cash to said supplier.

Hey everyone,

I'm changing my workflow slightly for speed and professionalism due to some clients wanting photos sent out and having a photobook printed professionally. However, I have to use TIF files right now, converted out of Adobe RAW to TIF, then to DVD, then to printing. Does anyone else do this and if so, a reputable company? For weddings I would hire someone to do this and simply gave them my flash cards. Thanks!!

I am wondering if any one has any experience with the Canon 70-300L IS combined with the Kenko 1.4x Teleconverter. I know that you will be losing one full stop which will make it a f8 at the 300mm end, but it seems that you still will retain the auto fucus on the 50D. It is suppose to be slow but still workable. I am just wondering how much it degrades the IQ.

The other other option that I was thinking of, to get more reach, is to invest in the Canon 400mm 5.6. Would IQ of the 400mm 5.6 be greatly improved from the teleconverter and 70-300L Combination. Also if any one know if the 400mm 5.6 compares to the 70-300L in IQ

Thanks for any advice

First time post but just wanted to see if anyone had the same problem with their joystick/multi-direction controller going AWOL!

Hi to all

Will start shooting swimming events, mainly trials and waterpolo, any tips on where best to stand pool side? Have 70-200 and 400 mm f/2.8, should cover the range required nicely.

Does anyone have an idea if it's possible to radio trigger the st-e3 transmitter for a test-flash via an pw tt1 with the seconic l-758dr?

I am just wondering how many people out there can afford and are willing to spend 6800 on a camera? I am not asking if they are using it for a certain purpose just how man people actually purchase 1 Series bodies. I considered getting one before but the longer I wait the more I think that the 5D Mark III might be for me.

I have just come back from a 4 day visit to the Kruger Park. I saw an amazing variety of animal life, many more images can be seen here at...http://www.ivanmuller.co.za/blog

From the backyard of the house I rented

5d MKIII f4 30 Seconds 24mm ISO 160

Has anyone ever tried or bought Lensbaby bodies/lenses? Are they worth it?
Thanks!

My 5D3 went back due to what I think is a short related to the electronic viewfinder. That being said, I am on the fence and strongly considering getting the 1D X instead. I'm next in the queue at my local dealer, and if I decide to pull the trigger, I will have one by the end of this week.

So...

For those of you who have purchased a 1D X, I'm curious as to why? What makes it worth it to you? Specifically, why would you buy one over the 5D3? Of course, specifications-wise it's better in almost every way, but it's nearly double the price. I'm sure many of you guys are pros, who have previously owned a 1D series. I don't have any experience with the 1D, so is the build quality really that much better than the 5D series?

I would appreciate any input that would help me decide... I'm either getting another 5D3, or upgrading to the 1D X. I'm sure I'll keep either body for a long time to come (my last camera was a 20D that I've kept for nearly 7 years).

Thanks for your help!

What was the last Canon camera without video capabilities right out of the box? Was it the 50D?

I have been tracking the price of Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens for quite some time and it has never gone down $2299.
I want to get it but I am not in any hurry, did any one see the price lesser than $2299. Do you think during Christmas it might go down further?

5dmkiii and 1dx are undeniably inextricably linked; heaven forbid the market reaction if the mkiii had been released with a 39mp sensor along with a 18mp 1dx. I for one am really worried about whether the money I put down now will be to waste as I find it hard to believe canon can stay in the game competitively with what seems on paper at least, ISO aside, rather underwhelming features and specs. Bear in mind it can only look worse in 2 years time which will no doubt prompt newer models being announced or even released in a shorter lifecylce than usual to stay competitive, especially to all the fast growing new first time buyers. Besides which my trusty mkii and and mkiv perform just as well as usual with only marginal improvements offered by an upgrade. I just can't help feeling that it would be prudent to wait it out a few months to see how the market reacts.(which is an awfully longtime should these bodies get a refresh in about 2 years).
Feel free to slap me down for these rather pessimistic outlook.

How much does one have to pay for a used copy of this wonderful lens? Thank you.

I live in Miami, but Since I am in NYC I had to stop by B&H. I preordered the 1DX 3 months ago and still haven't gotten it.
I asked the manager about my order and he showed me the computer and I saw for myself, 840 cameras on order and 680 on Back Order... That means more cameras than back orders so I will definitely get one and if you placed a pre order and still gotten yours, you are surely getting one soon!

They didn't even have a sample camera to show. I got lucky and the manager told me to wait and 10 minutes later he came back with a brand new unopened camera and let me open it and play with it for a while. Not even the employees at the store had even seen one. I was the first to play with it. It feels incredible in your hand. The viewfinder is huge and the screen is amazing. I asked the salesman for a 24-70 2.8 and then a 70-200 2.8L II... Wow. The store has very bad light, and at 4000 ISO there is no visible noise. Even at 8000 ISO I was able to go to 1/1000 at F4.0... WOW!

Bad for me, he couldn't sell it to me. He said the camera was Canon's property and it can't be sold. I will have to wait for my order to arrive in the mail at least I was able to unbox it myself and use it for a while and I believe it's the best camera ever! I can't wait!!!
