I see a lot of forums saying they hope it doesn't have AF problems
did Canon have AF problems with the previous versions of this ?

[trini mk5]

^^well according to some, the 5dmk2 had the an older af sensor on it as compared to the newer 19point system in the 7d. It was slow to focus and not very accurate for moving subjects. But it was never meant to be a sports camera, but more of a studio/landscape camera, due to the high megapixels and "slow" fps.

what do you guys think of that camera for a point and shoot?

MG man you want an excellent point and shoot? Get the canon s90,s95 or,s100. The s90 being the oldest of the 3 which means you can get it at a cheaper price, but its basically the same as the rest. Ive used both the s90 ans s95 and its an amazing camera. I wish to get one sometime this year to have on my person

AF is bloody slow. It is a snail compared to a 7D. I dunno about the accuracy, never really checked that. I trying to manual focus nowdays just for the heck of it. Really speeds up your time between pressing the shutter and getting the shot. Just have to lock exposure and go!! Really useless for action though.

[sMASH]

i like the last two 'guana shots, composition interests me. but, sumting seems missing, i thinking like to make the colors jump out, like the cream machine photos above... try ah lil processing and see how it turns out.

this is from someone who likes nice picteres, lawd knows i ain't no pro.

[tr1ad]

i liking the second to last iguana shot as is

[sMASH]

dat second to last shot is like wow. the screen on this netbook i am using now is probably dulling the colors a bit.

Never used the 5d mk2 but i used the 7d a lil bit and its focus is fast probably the same as a d300, but based on what ppl say the mk2 is slow and the 5d mk1 is even worse lol.
the only time i really use manual focus tbh is if the auto focus cant catch focus for watever reason....but ill would like to try a manual focus lens like the nikon 50 f1.2 just to see how it is.

I call this one the longest wait. Last non-people photograph I snapped, October 6th, 2011.

Tamron 70-300mm

Shutter speed 1/320

[lighthammer]

not bad for SOOC.
The highlights on the wing to the right are a little burned out, but that's common on most DSLR anyway.

And good job on maintaining the focus-plane on the face and esp. the eyes.

ALWAYS REMEMBER - THE EYES HAVE TO BE SHARP!
Whether animal or human - once there's a face, keep the eyes sharp by focusing on them. If your camera's A/F doesn't lock onto the eyes, keep the shutter button 1/2 pressed and spin your focus ring to get the eyes sharp... then snap!

Your portrait could be of the ugliest person in the room, or the hottest gyul in de fete - if the eyes not sharp and focus is on something like her chin.... the shot will be heavily technically flawed. Humans (and dogs... ) focus mainly on the face and esp. the eyes for visual and emotional cues to the other individual's mood, emotion, social level, etc. etc. So that should be reflected in your pics (which you did! Congrats!)


The bokeh at 300mm on that tamron is quite smooth actually, more than i'd expect on a consumer-grade lens.

I was tinking of buying that lens myself... good value for money!

[cincuanta]

Cant believe that some of them critters actually exist in Trinidad...like that red eyed bird.

[CleanAudio]

i took a better picture of the birds..but getting a little trouble adding it

the new tamron is excellent...here is a shot i took a few days ago

250s
f8
238mm zoom

no post processing except for the watermark, the 2nd pic is 100% crop..
the sharpness is impressive with this lens , the older version wasn't anywhere close,slight ca but can be fixed.

tell dat bird stop staring at me

[tr1ad]

and stop the trolling in a perfectly good thread while you at it...

tamron really has some nice lens'

[MISHI]

It really is a good lens. It's sharpest at around F 9.0 when you at full length zoom.

Here's one of the first images I took with it

T1i> 300mm> f 9.0> 1/320s> ISO200> ai servo> no flash


And another
T1i> 271mm> f 9.0> 1/320s> ISO200> ai servo> no flash



I'm still selling mine though.

The problem with third party lenses, is that they are not future proof. Sometimes you might buy a new body and the lens might not work on it. They very seldom match their equivalent in either nikon or canon, or they do so with compromises.

Sorry for posting the B&W conversion of a cellphone snap. I now realize allyuh still on this SOOC phase. Tell me when it is over

[CleanAudio]

Finally got it LOL
