Well, it appears that I need to have a word with myself. Another post on the DP Review Forums has linked to a Canon document which shows how much coverage every EF lens provides and the ones I mentioned above are 80%: https://canoncanada.custhelp.com/app...r5%2Feos-r6%29...

It certainly looks that way, ecoleman but still quite a large area to work in. However, it wasn't like this before the update and these are f2.8 lenses - I'd love to find out if Canon have throttled these back?

Hi Hanley - thanks for the replies. Unfortunately I've checked those items and can confirm the the appropriate AF method is in use (I usually use Spot-AF). I too initially thought that I had set it to a large zone area but unfortunately not... Update: It appears to be dependant on the lens...

Hi, While shooting a concert last night my R6 began displaying a square box both in the viewfinder and on screen inset from the edge of the viewable area when I used eye autofocus. If physically moving the AF point towards an edge the white box is not displaying but the cursor will still not...

So I can use only one or write to both but not put video on one and pics on the other?

Can anyone help please? I need to set up my 5Diii to shoot video to the CF card and photos to the SD card and I can't figure out how to do it. I can set it so that all files record to one or the other but can't see if I can set it to distinguish between format (i.e. movies on one, photos on...

Hi, I'm a music photographer, mainly hard rock and metal bands, and through some album and tour poster work for VEGA I was asked to film a video for their new single "Stereo Messiah". As you will see, it's a basic affair - no CGI here (ha ha) but moves along at a rollicking pace and has gone...

lolage, thanks for watching - no offence taken at all. Your points are well made. In fact, it was the record company who wanted the live/tattoo footage included and they got what they asked for. Perhaps a stronger thread was needed, there certainly will be one on the next one! Cheers.

I made a stop motion video (or is it just a quick slideshow?) of Newcastle Harley Davidson's Kustomworx event yesterday: http://youtu.be/jfIAG-JqaZg Great day, over 3500 photo's all pulled into 4 minutes. Enjoy.

Db247: go for it! Video is a different beast but worth it when it comes together. Just had a call from the band earlier today, they want me to do their next single (chosen by none other than Joe Elliott from Def Leppard who's a fan and mentor of the band). Nottingham Rock City here we come...

Having photographed the rock band Vega during their spring UK tour and festival appearance at Classic Rock Magazine's "Hard Rock Hell - AOR" the band asked me if I could make a video for their next single, "What the Hell". Well, I'd never used video on my Canon 60D before but the lads were...

Buy in confidence, the only way to tell the difference is the box it comes in. No issues with refurbished products from Apple at all, even the warranty is the same. By the way, do you still have the 1000D I sold you a couple of years ago? I think you were going to IR mod it?

Def Leppard: "Deliver me"

Hi all, Kelby Training's photography show "The Grid" yesterday featured some of my live concert shots on their critique show. Thankfully, they liked 'em (mostly)! See it here (my photo's appear at the 30:30 mark): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ-LelMmLns&feature=g-all-u Nice to get...

As a footnote to this, I've been contacted again by the band as they embark on a national tour to support the album. They need a new set of publicity shots as they have a new member. The best part (other than it being a fully paid gig for those that need to know): They have negotiated the...
