Could everyone just take a second to note that the instigator of Canon lenses not being good is the OP of the Nikon thread. #justsayin

Combat Pretzel posted:Is there any reason why Canon cameras don't just do AF confirmation on mechanical lenses via the firmware? I was wondering, because I've ordered a Samyang and it's apparently possible to get confirmation by essentially glueing a third party chip to the mount. So I'm wondering why this isn't supported by firmware and needs a nonsense hack. because Canon want you to buy Canon lenses not Samyang lenses.

Star War Sex Parrot posted:A good friend has no clue about the technical side of photography if I try to talk with her about it, but she takes some pretty great shots; especially her infrared stuff: It's a lot harder to teach creativity than technical stuff. I'd rather look at some teenager on flickr's work shooting on Auto with a Rebel than a 60 year old camera enthusiast with the sharpest lenses. The frustrating thing comes when their creative work gets them to a postion where they can enhance their work with improving their technique but they don't because why change what got them there in the first place? I had a full shouting fight with a photographer I assisted about shooting RAW.

Combat Pretzel posted:Details please. Oh, they mostly shot JPG and never really put out work bigger than 2000px x 2000 px but they were super good and awesome and I was handling like admin and such for them as well as assisting on shoots. They had interest from a licensing company for book covers but the company freaked out when the highest res images we had were like 2000px at 72dpi (the photographer's archive was flickr) The fight was basically me being like "you should start shooting raw" and them being like "why should I, jpg has gotten me this far" and basically escalating from there.

Oh yeah, RAW isn't for everyone but when you start shooting for bigger clients and such and you're not managing the post workflow shooting in RAW is a bit of a courtesy to whoever is handling your files.

I am thankful for dizzlers with expensive gear as that drives down the price for us scrubs. I did the shadiest looking deal with some kind of rich dentist in the back of a mercedes in a dingy parking lot but ended up with a barely used L for a fraction of new.

The difference is especially clear uploading the files to a computer. That said I think CF cards are going to get more and more expensive as bodies start using SD cards a lot more. I doubled my memory card storage in SD cards for the cost of one CF card.

Mr. Despair posted:Yeah, you're almost certainly lagging behind the sync speed. Granted, the 5d3's sync speed is higher than 1/200, but that's for on camera flash and off camera flashes that can compensate. If you're using generic radio trigger sor something you're probably introducing just enough of a delay to miss sync. Sadly the mk3's max is 1/200 and usually ends up being real world of 1/160

You can on the 5D3 fwiw. I feel like my files from the mkII were IMG_ though.
