![]() I can only hope they will give the 5DIII the AF out of the 7D or 1D. I don't plan on using either for video, so I am keeping that out of the equation. Just going to use it for theater,landscapes and jet planes. Buying both is just not going to happen.

but a good chunk of the time i ended up using the 5D anyhow because i had gotten so used to the trigger weight and the full frame with the lenses i already have. so if i've been taking pictures of birds or stuff like that, i've been using the 7D mostly because of it's focus and the clarity and reach since i have so much more light to work with. but walking around disney and such, i would use the 5D just because of the full frame sensor, and when going in buildings i had the better ISO handling. They are both great cameras, the 7D addresses short commings of the 5DII. I find the 7D doesn't handle changes in white balance as well, they tend to look a little off compared to the near perfect white balance on the 5D it's a bitch adjusting from APS-C sensor to full frame when you're using the same lens on each camera... you get used to one focal length, and then it changes so much when you switch body. I do like the natural vignetting that occurs with the 5DII and the extra DOF the full frame sensor allows you the use of. hope these things help. Dcstep shoots both the 5DII and 7D as well, so if you go on his flickr, you can kind of compare and contrast the pictures he's taken, and if he reads this he may have some input too. |

sounds good, I think i'll learn more off of the stuff tomorrow and sunday, most of this stuff today is review, but it's nice to have the review and re-enforce previous learnings.

yeah... but honestly, even though we might know this stuff, how often do you consider this stuff when buying a lens?

I put a lot of time into my lens choices. I still make mistakes though, but that's why i keep a close eye on the return policy. and when i buy one, i make sure i go out shooting right away, or asap, and take a few hundred shots if time permits. |

the comparisons he's showing are nice, because it's hard to sometimes find those direct comparisons on the internet.

the red headed one was pretty cute...
yeah, this is really cool see, I never put that much thought into lens selection.... makes so much sense though, I have a female model friend who is 6'1 and i was going to get her to help me get experience shooting, and it's making me think i should be using telephotos to shrink her down a little. |

yeah, he's making me want the 7-200 2.8, which i have the F4, and it's an incredible lens.... but it just isn't a 2.8
![]() yeah, i've been wanting to test out the 135 F2 for a little while. would be amaizing for some of the sport stuff i've been doing. especially with low light indoor. |
