Outdoor with my 100-400

Thanks for that explanation, makes more sense now :thumbs:

Back to AF sensitivity, I set it to low for moving bird shots and high for static shots. Has anyone experience of surf photography. Should I also set sensitivity to low or keep it at medium? Any thoughts appreciated

Mines the 1.4 .............£265 ish Lots of other L's I'd but before the 1.2

Well I have A) not saying its the best choice as I've never owned or used the 24-70. I tend to use the 24-105 as my walkaround but I wouldn't be without the 50mm 1.4 for its shallow DoF, speed and bokeh. So in my bag both get used and I love them both Regards

Thanks all for the input, I've already had my eye on the Gitzo GM5541 I'll investigate the head issue further

Can't wait for mine to arrive from Kerso, will be interested in your images

Looking for the best monopod and ball head for that money. Largest lenses used will be the 100-400L and later in the year 70-200 2.8 ii and obviously smaller lenses. Main usage, slower moving sports surfing, running etc and wildlife that I find on my wanderings around the coast path...

Here's one or both with 10-22

Great, hope you enjoy yours as much as I am :)

Because there's more room for the big CANON letters :-)

I have the 10-22 and its opened up a whole new world for me, not the easiest lens to get to grips with but when you do the images blow you away. Now wouldn't be without an UWA

Thanks both :-)

Will this affect the IS systems on canon lens or will that continue to work in the same way as a half press on the shutter button if you've focus set on the rear AF-ON button Any thoughts appreciated, thanks

When I very first pressed the shutter on my 7D I knew the sound of love :)
