    Counting down my five favorite Canon digital cameras ever. Coming in at #2…..

    1) 1DX Mark II 2) 1DX 3) 5D Mark III 4) 7D 5) AE-1 Program (first camera ever) Ok, I've only owned 5 Canon cameras haha so that's my list. But if I include other brands my Calumet Monorail 4x5 and Yashica Mat 124G would change the list.

    What were your first Canons? Analog and or digital?

    September 1982, took my entire first full time paycheck and bought an AE-1 program. Loved it! 1st digital was a Nikon Coolpix 8700 in (I think 2004). Hated it! Didn't touch digital until 2012 (ish). Got a 7D, then a 5DIII, then the 1DX, and now the 1DX II !!! I even purchased a 1V-HS--thought...

    Stepping up to 1DX or 5D IV

    WOW! That's a steal. I'd never let mine go for that amount. +1,000,000. I even sold my 5D3 since it was just collecting dust. Now my 1DX II is my main camera and my 1DX is the secondary rig.

    Stock Notice: Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III at B&H Photo

    Man I loved my 16-35 II. Had to part with it to get a 1DX. Can't wait for my new version III to come in! Could have used it this week (Homecoming events) but at least I'll have it for the Halloween events!

    Concert Goers - No Professional Camera - What does that mean???

    My favorite concert was the Within Temptation show I saw in November 2014. They are hands down my favorite band and I was determined to try and get my 5D3 in. Turned out they just took my ticket and didn't even look at the backpack I had on. I shot the show for probably 4/5 of the concert when...

    Concert Goers - No Professional Camera - What does that mean???

    I've shot concerts with a 5D3, 1DX and my new 1DX II. 3 years ago I shot a concert with an iPhone 5 (no photo permission) and printed a 16x20 that I have framed on my wall. Now the quality isn't the same but even THAT camera put out usable quality. Depending on the lighting, today's cell phones...

    Concert Goers - No Professional Camera - What does that mean???

    I purchased the G1X Mark II just for the purpose of using it at concerts where I didn't have permission to use a DSLR. I got it in the first concert by holding it upside down by the lens (it appeared to be a phone) but as soon as I brought it out in the show I was made to put it away. So much...

    EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III & EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USD Pricing

    Re: EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III & EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USD Pricing Incorrect. The word "Canon" is not the reason for the price of "L" lenses. It's for the honor of having that pretty red stripe that identifies the user as being "a professional". ::)

    Confirmation of Upcoming Product Announcements

    You just described me. ;D Already sold my Sigma 24mm Art lens (that BTW, I loved) in preparation for this lens. Had the II version and loved it, but had to give it up to get a 1DX. Can't wait to get back to this lens!

    1DX Mark II having issues with the Sigma 50 1.4 Art lens

    Here's the error message I'm getting with my next 1DX MII. I've used a Sigma Art 24 and a Canon 135 F2 and I keep getting this message. I'm set up to record RAW files on the CFast card. These files copy through Explorer but show up as "missing" when I try to open them in Photoshop through DPP 4...

    Just got off the phone with B&H. Mine is shipping today. Won't get here until Friday (darn that NY to Colorado shipping distance.) But at least according to what he said, I should "have it by the end of the day Friday". ;D Edit: confirmed as "SHIPPED!" yeah baby. Friday can't get here soon enough.
