Yes, my 80D too.    Now that you've pointed this out, I really must dig out my old 30D and compare it with that !

I'd agree with HossainG - if you're pointing directly into a very bright light source (was the sun actually shining through that window ?)  then a lens hood is not going to prevent lens flare.  A ...

In the camera itself, no.  This facility does exist in the firmware for the xD series but not in the firmware for the xxD series, although there is no reason why Canon couldn't implement it if ...

I find that if you shoot RAW (and surely you're not going to shoor JPEGs for a wedding ??) then the quickest enhancement is usually to bump up the saturation by 1 or 2 notches in post. If you have ...

Another thing you need to watch with off-brand batteries (in my experience) is the fit.  I had a Hahnel battery for my 30D; performance-wise i detected no difference between it and the Canon ...

No need to apologise at all. I did almost the same the other day (had to RTFM to check how to use live view for stills rather than movies, had completely forgotten about just pressing ...

When you are trying to shoot in Live View mode, is the camera confirming focus on the screen ?   Also, does it allow you to shoot a movie ?

The locomotive I was shooting certainly demonstrated that.  What intrigues me is the 80D in Evaluative metering mode seems to expose for the darkest part of the subject, as is also shown in the ...

I have noticed that my 80D, when shooting throught the viewfinder in very bright sunlight and using evaluative metering, consistently overexposes in exactly the way shown above. My thinking is ...

Are you saying that the over-exposure of shots taken through the viewfinder shows up in the EXIF as well - i.e. you can actually see a 2/3 stop difference recorded there ?   I often find that I ...

Colin, True - my hands do tremble slightly, but I routinely allow my 80D to drop to 1/60 with  IS on and I make sure to brace myself and squeeze gently (oooh matron.)    I have the older IS lenses ...

With that lens, 1/250 and 1/320 should be fast enough so long as IS is on. Leave IS switched on unless you're using a tripod (in which case remember to switch it off.)   As someone else said ...

They don't look that awful to me - my 80D and 24-105L always make trees look a bit odd, or at least different to what my eyes were seeing. However, just to eliminate a couple of outside ...

When I first unboxed my 80D I took a few shots in full auto mode just to check that the shutter, sensor, autofocus and so on were doing the basics correctly.  The results were perfectly acceptable ...

Good decision - eneloops are the mutt's nuts.  Non-rechargeable batteries will still do a job in an emergency, just remember to take them out before you put the flash away.  Good luck with the ...

Those images aren't soft - in fact they're so sharp they are starting to make me question the calibration of my own lenses ! I only looked at the portrait with the Neutral style but that still ...

That problem went on for several years with Canon sensors and arguably still hasn't been completely resolved !  Certainly my EOS 30D's approach to certain shades of purple/violet was to make a ...

I couldn't agree more !   But of course for Microsoft that is far too simple and user-friendly.....

Has anyone else tried this one yet ? I installed the latest Windows 10 release, which introduces the concept of "Controlled Folders" ; this is Microsoft's new ransomware protection feature which ...

A rocket blower and sometimes a small lens brush.  Lens hood at all times unless shooting indoors.   I always have Hoya digital protector filters on my lenses, if they become obviously dirty I ...
