Not if it is done correctly. May help but you are just throwing away some of the high quality that the camera can provide.  It would be far better if you turn the in camera sharpening right down ...

In the "Flash Control" section of the menu, select "Shutter synch", choose between "1st Curtain" or "2nd Curtain", for rear curtain you need 2nd.

Not really a fair comparison ISO 320 against ISO 2000.

If you are using flash then you need the background as far away from the subject as you can get it.

The 80D has AFMA (autofocus micro adjustment) which allows the user to correct any deficiencies in the lens autofocus calibration, the 77D doesn't have it. Coming from the 350D you have never had ...

If you mean microfocus adjustment then it can be done with any make of lens.

Lens retraction is a user selectable option on my 7D2 so I would guess it is body specific and may not work on the 40D.

Download "Digital Image Mover", it's a freebie you'll find with a google search. It can do all the above for you automatically.

I have been using DPP for years and have never used Auto Gamma, I just made all corrections manually. After your suggestion I tried the Auto and WOW what a fantastic tip that is ...... thankyou ...

Of course they will, but so will mirrorless cameras and their lenses once Canon design a new system. Canon won't stop making EF and EF-S lenses all the time there is a market for them, how long ...

A good question. I can see there could be some advantages because the console allows you to make corrections for three different focusing distances as well as various focal lengths throughout the ...

In the Camera. If you use the console you will be adjusting the lens according to manufacturing specifications this would not correct for any out of tolerance parts of the camera body.

It might be worth checking out the Sigma flashguns. I used to have a Sigma EF 500 DG ST which was Canon dedicated but didn't use the centre pin, it worked perfectly but I got rid of it because I ...

I don't know, but if you process with DPP then some of the jpg settings can be applied to raw so the information is being stored somewhere. I am just of the mind that if you don't need it then ...

If you shoot in raw then leave them all OFF.

Apart from the reasons already given above, the built in flash is not designed to cover the wide angle view that the 10mm lens is showing, in small rooms this may not be so noticeable because some ...

You don't specifically need Lightroom, almost any picture viewer can be used in conjunction with EOS Utility.

Interesting info in this video, just a pity it wasn't in a written format then I wouldn't need to listen to his machine gun voice and my brain would have more time to process the information. I ...
