I put my camera back in its bag, slid my polarized sunglasses back on my face and put up my lightly tinted window and suddenly, that picture I wanted to capture was back.
At that moment, it became clear to me what all this talk of filters is about.

It's always nice when that "ah-hah" moment comes up and you realize you actually do know what people are talking about! Filters are quite an accessory to a photog.

Nice!

Looks heavy :)

HKYStormFront 09-21-2012 08:59 AM

it's really not that bad, it's not light tho. the 100-400 was definitely heavier

I like my 100 400, it is a load though.

HKYStormFront 09-21-2012 09:14 AM

i've got a new prancing pony to shoot this weekend, looking forward to trying this haus out on it. i've shot with it before at detroit but that one was rented. the prime also has (iirc) a much closer zoom range so you can almost do macro type detail shots with it which is nice. my 135 has a stupid close focus distance too for a non-macro lens

Actually, your shots do not suck. And, they continue to improve.

LunaZ 09-21-2012 06:30 PM

I'm selling my 7D and getting an Instagram camera.

Sorry. Bourbon and a dose of frustration. I'm better now.

KingZee 09-24-2012 04:37 PM

I heard 7D...so is there absolutely no way to set exposure above 30 seconds? I ran into this trying to shoot night sky shots while camping this passed weekend. I didnt have a remote either so holding the bulb button didn't work for me.

HKYStormFront 09-24-2012 06:37 PM

bulb mode is the only way with a remote shutter release

HKYStormFront 10-21-2012 11:48 AM
