Lens adapters can be useful things sometimes, letting you mount one brand of lens on another brand of camera. One thing that has always bothered me, though, is the idea of doubling the number of lens-mount interfaces.

You’ve more than likely heard about the Canon 5D Mk III RAW Hack. We too have been keeping a close eye on the Magic Lantern (ML) team as of late.

Two of the common languages spoken on forums are CAKWAF (Complete, Absolute Knowledge Without Any Facts) and AFIDAWAB (Any Facts I Don’t Agree With Are Bullstuff). Since I [...] show less
