    CR in Rwanda With The Canon EOS-1D X Mark II

    I know this is a website devoted to gear; but remember that the gear is 5% of the effort of creative genius. Masters of any craft can create masterpieces with whatever tools they are given. I once saw a master flautist being interviewed on PBS. The reporter handed him a cheap plastic recorder...

    6D autofocus capabilites: let's bust some myths about it

    Well, I wanted to share these. The first shot is with my 50mm and the 2nd shot with the 70-300mm. I liked AI Servo mode which worked very well for me focusing on the players. Out of about 150 shots- not all were keepers from an action standpoint; but only three or four pix I found to be out...

    6D autofocus capabilites: let's bust some myths about it

    I went to a college women's basketball game yesterday and got a number of nice shots using my 6D. This was my first time shooting a sporting event since the early 1980s. Some background: I used to shoot sports when I was in college in the 1970s for the local newspaper. I freelanced college...

    Normal RAW vs Dual ISO Raw Example Video

    How do displays and prints compare with 14 stops dynamic range? Are displays just compressing the range back to some lower level?

    Is my 24-105mm f/4 L unreasonably soft?

    After I made my post I started thinking about my set-up: It was hand held and the focal plane may not have been parallel to the screen door. So I did a proper set-up on the tripod and did some shots at wide open and with the zoom set at both ends and the middle. I got better results with the...

    Is my 24-105mm f/4 L unreasonably soft?

    Is it normal for the 24-105mm f/4L to be a little soft in the corners when zoomed in to 105mm? I snapped a shot of my screen door at f/7. The screen mesh is crystal sharp in the center third, not too bad in the left third but a little soft in the right third and more so at the bottom corner...
