• UPDATE



    The forum will be moving to a new domain in the near future (canonrumorsforum.com). I have turned off "read-only", but I will only leave the two forum nodes you see active for the time being.

    I don't know at this time how quickly the change will happen, but that will move at a good pace I am sure.

Any thing Shot with a 5ds/r

Thanks. They do look a lot better in full resolution. It is actually a bit unfair to show these images, without the ability to post full size. I am very impressed with this camera so far.

Don't forget all the beautiful maidens on the beach Eldar, perfect for testing the qualities of a 5Ds.

Come to think of it, I´m actually quite good at sneaking up on birds ... ::)

I did not bring a macro lens on this trip, so I shot this black bumble bee with the 70-200 f2.8L IS II (mfd=1.2m and this was a bit more). Not much of a macro, but because of all the resolution I have available, I could crop a lot and still get a decent image. No post processing, except lifted shadows, since the bumble bee was totally black out of camera.

Here´s a Swallowtail (Papilio machaon) on final approach. It is just covering the sun, so the light was quite interesting and I´m fairly happy with the timing.

Shot with the 70-200 f2.8L IS II @200mm, 1/200s, f8.0, ISO500 (cropped quite a bit)

i loved 5d3 for the ability to see in the dark with the liveview, great to compose image and focus on the stars at night, for milky way shots, nightscapes...what about the liveview of 5ds/R? With the limitation of iso range i wonder if we can do the same..........and i would love to see a comparaison between a 1dx and 5ds shot, if someone have both :p

That's a very nice image Eldar with the Sun providing an opportune backlight, well caught.

I'm still playing with mine (the 5DsR I mean), bought the MP360 Hub for the CamRanger so practising using the camera remote for my next trip to Sth Africa in August, trying for those close up images of Leopards while sitting behind a bush 50 metres away, my Son's Cat is the current model.

Hi eml,

Can you keep us up to date on that MP360, it seems like a very useful, and reasonably priced, addition for the CamRanger.

Hi Private, Happy too.

I'm quietly impressed so far, very easy set up, primarily I purchased it to set up on a tripod on pathways that leopards walk, trying for those wide angle very close Images some get when the animal comes close to investigate.

I've used the CamRanger & 1Dx set this way in the past, but without the motorised base that the MP360 offers, I'm hugely impressed with the CamRanger.

Thanks, I don't know if you remember but a while back I asked you how the CamRanger compared to the Canon WFT's, you recommended the CamRanger over the WFT so I got one and subsequently sold my WFT's. I have been looking at the MP360 to help with pole photography for real estate work instead of a drone.

I've tested the MP360 out to around 70 metres from the iPad & it works smoothly and consistently, again I am impressed with this piece of equipment.

I can't say it will take much in the way of Rain/snow/dust etc, it's in no way weather sealed, but there wouldn't be too much to do to make it semi weather sealed.

And at less than $300 it's excellent value.

Here´s one more noise example, from St. Sophia´s cave on Crete.

This is shot handheld with the 24-70 f2.8L II @24mm, 1/40s, f3.5, ISO3200. The only editing is Highlight: -100, Shadow: +100, Noise (luminance): 40. Everything else is LR default. Again, judge for yourselves.
