first pic I used the 70-200 F2.8 IS L, the last 3/4 I used the 24-70 F 2.8 L

I have a ton more on my computer to go through, just the bunch I managed to post before heading out of the house.

started getting used to the controls near the end of the shoot...definitely will take a little getting used to, but I love it so far

I pick up the mkI so you pick up the mkII

Wait till you go through the menus, the custom functions AND then the personal custom functions, the 45 point AF. A lot to go though!

Congrats and welcome to the 1D club

OHHH!!! Makes sense now considering you just picked up the 5D II.

Hows it holding out?

So far I love it...a little getting adjusted to the controls on the fly, but I think I'll be good in a few shoots. By the end of the trip to the botanic garden I was getting back to higher percentage of keepers

love it so far, 5dmkii, shooting everything in raw mode, then using lightroom 2.2 and cs4 for the development of the raw...makes me very happy so far

amazing what tiny adjustments with raw in the development process can do to a photo. I dont know that I could justify shooting in jpeg with the way I can keep the highest resolution/detail in an image, and tweak the output. Love it


Hows the 1D doing so far? I saw the animal photos, pretty amazing shots..wish I had animals to shoot! Suburban chicago...limited

Well its only been one weekend so far. I want to take it to a day at the track but that will be a while.

Its great and everything just works so quickly and accurately, its hard to get things wrong. ISO200 is its standard so your shutterspeed is always quick enough for most things. Colours are a bit cool to start with but easy to bring back in PP. All 1D's ive noticed do that to help preserve colours easier.

I did have to drive across London to capture these so a road trip might be in order.
