As a public service announcement, I have learned that the Canon W-E1 Wi-Fi Adapter disables tethering via USB. Canon EOS Utility, Lightroom, Android DSLRController via USB OTG, etc. are all disabled as long as the W-E1 is in the camera. I found this out after stupidly thinking it was Windows...

Has anyone used this yet? I ordered the TS-E 17 f/4L version the other day specifically to use with their ND1000 filter for architectural shots to blur out people & cars and was curious what the XL version is like, other than huge. I have also been using the Breakthrough Filters 10-stopper...

As many of us look at our current cameras with sad eyes, we begin to imagine what we could if only we had the newest and greatest camera of them all, the 1D X Mark II. What would you be able to do, if only you had a 1D X Mark II??? I would: Go out under a new moon to take macro photos of...

Okay, you probably think I'm talking about the camera - but take a look at the red stripe on the battery and battery charger! Now I will really feel professional with my L(uxury) battery and charger! I'm sure our buddy Surapon will really love this one! Canon USA even has a whole article...

I have embarked on a new photographic journey - product photography. I'm getting good results with most of my work, but I'm not happy with my jewelry shots. I can't seem to get the sparkle out of cut gems and the photos come out looking somewhat dull, like eyes without catchlights. I have...

Hmm, it seems that Canon's sensors don't actually suck - and the 1D X is looking quite mighty at high ISOs in it's old age: Sony a7r II Review – Dynamic Range Compared to Canon 5DsR, Canon 1Dx and Nikon D810 For the quick results, go to ~ 17:30 in the video.

DxO's press release and website are all out whack: http://www.dxo.com/us/news/dxo-opticspro-104-dxo-filmpack-512-and-dxo-viewpoint-254-are-available The press release says they now support the 11-24 f/4, but it's not listed in their new modules, whereas the 400 DO II is listed. On their...

I am planning to head out for a full moon shoot tomorrow night and was wondering if anyone had some tips to share. I'm planning on standing in the middle of a road (hopefully with few cars) so I won't have much time to fool around with my settings and such. I'm planning to do it as follows -...

Not even sure what to say about his one: http://www.cnet.com/news/beastgrip-pro-may-be-a-monster-rig-for-shooting-phone-video-hands-on/

I have never been a huge fan of HDR for my own work as I have rarely been able to achieve realistic results. Between the halos and the garish colors, even with "realistic" settings, I just haven't been happy. While searching for something the other day, I found a tip about using ACR with...

...and another review: http://www.ephotozine.com/article/canon-ef-11-24mm-f-4l-usm-review-27176 EDIT: For comparisons, here are the comparable reviews from them: EF 16-35 f/4 IS Tamron SP 15-30 f/2.8 Di VC Nikon AF-S 14-24 f/2.8 ED

I couldn't find a thread like this, so I'm starting one. I'm no expert, but I'm starting to get to the point where I'm not embarrassed by my pano attempts, so here are two from the other night in Jacksonville, Florida - on 3:1 and one 4:1:

It looks like my 1D X didn't escape the experience (below) unscathed. After two hours in the surf (sometimes IN it) I cleaned the camera thoroughly (I thought) but a little bit of saltwater must've remained in the hotshoe and now I see some rust in the metal springs and liner (the contacts are...

I have found Canon's batteries to be the best I've used in any electronic device, but my 5DIII is telling me that one of my spare LP-E6 battery's recharge performance is red. I haven't noticed any significant decrease in capacity or anything, but I know these batteries don't last forever and...

I found a cool new Canon site that is a portal to all of their worldwide lens sites: http://www.canon.com/the-eyes-of-eos/index.html

The Digital Picture has the crops up for comparison: http://www.the-digital-picture.com/News/News-Post.aspx?News=14614 It looks very good to me, and I'm pleased to see how sharp it is compared to the other lenses in the range. It holds its own against the 16-35 f/4 IS, with less distortion, is...

I have had a number of questions from forum members about the two photo books I have published, so I thought I’d go ahead and do a write up about it. It’s probably way more than most of you want to know, but it’s a long journey and lot of work to put a book together, far more than I would have...

Roger has posted his test and the results are pretty interesting - be sure to read down to the 23mm test portion: http://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2015/02/just-the-lenses-tamron-15-30mm-f2-8
