I take it these were JPG straight out of camera? Nicely done! The details are impressive -- the pony-tailed guy with the cane in front of the crab shack! I may be joining y'all pretty soon, moving...

Hi, I was able to play around with a 1DC yesterday at Canon's CPS Hospitality and Open House Event at the Canon Hollywood Professional Technology & Support Center. The open house is in support of...

Buy the Canon 100-400, that's what I have, with 1.4X II.

Pierre -- Amazing, and very exciting to see how you capture the band in action. Nice still shots! I really appreciate your remarks here in the forum too. Love the punk/grunge scene, thanks. What...

I'm always pleased with the quality of the original EF 28/2.8. It's very cheap too! You'll be surprised what you can get it for used on eBay (around $150). I like the old EF 35/2 also, for around...

My two lenses combo would be EF-S 10-22 and 24-105L IS.

Depends on your priorities: Stills -- 60D and 15-85 IS Video -- T4i and 18-135 STM IS Either will overlap into the other in a pinch, but those are the areas that will work best. I shoot mainly...

You are caught in a conflict between doing and assignment (even a self-assignment) vs. a family trip.  You'll never be able to act independently with companions who aren't devoted to getting the...

For best image quality, you want the 24 TS-E II. Even without using the lens movements, it has stellar IQ and is sharp right into the corners thanks to its huge image circle. Definitely one of my...

I love the 50/1.2L. Amazing lens. Wide open it is so ethereal looking and good at subject isolation -- stopped down it gets very sharp a f/2. I'd like the 35/2 IS as well, but the 50/1.2 is  much...

Yes, I'm happy I traded up from 17-40L to 16-35L II.

First of all, you wouldn't shoot night scenes wide open with either lens if you had any choice. ;)  The 50/1.2L is actually 1/2 stop faster. But you wouldn't buy it at that price just for 1/2 stop,...

I've never used the Tokina and I own the Canon. I've seen several comparisons, but I remain unconvinced the Tokina is as good overall, at least for my use. I can't judge if Canon is twice as good...

Thanks Kevin!  Kevin and I have the same basic collection and experience, except he's got the Nikon 14-24 and I have the 17 TS-E. :) I never had the Sigma 12-24 or the intermediate 16-35 v. I. So,...

I agree with Kevin: The 16-35L II is quite a bit superior to the 17-40L. 1) Added one stop bonus. 2) Added 1mm adds a lot of real estate to the image. 3) Sides and corners are better at all...

A qualified answer is the 17mm TS-E. I say qualified because you do need to guard against sun at the side causing flare/ghosts. This can be done using LV and your hand or a flag such as Dinkum's...

Having owned all these I'm about to mention, the 5D would be a bit of an imaging downgrade from the T2i, even though it might be an ergonomic upgrade. My choice would be the 1Ds Mark II -- larger...

Ha-ha! :) If you can buy them both, that's great! I bought the 24 TS-E II first, as it is far more useful. I got by with my 16-35L II for interiors, keeping the camera level.  Only recently did I...

The 16-35L II will be better than the original. It's one of my most-used lenses.

Canon EF 35/2 IS is my choice. I don't care about how it compares to Zeiss or Sigma, since neither of those brands had the feature set I want: IS and AF in a relatively compact lightweight package.
