Good evening all, What do people normally do with logos, it's easy when the photo is the maximum size, but what about when it's cropped, how do you judge what dimensions? is it an educated guess (ie whatever looks roughly the right size) or is there some science to it? thanks James

great advice werecow, I think I'll stay clear and save my pennies for something better. Thank you so much to everyone who took time to respond, my knowledge of cameras and the different models is lacking, so your input has helped me loads.

sorry ignore this post

I've found out and it's the 1d not the 1Ds :(. But by the sounds of it I might be better to buy it as a replacement for my 550d, especially for Motorsport photography. What is the est. shutter life on a 1D?

Sorry phone is playing up and double posting

I will double check, thank you so much for the advice so far

Good afternoon all, I'm currently running a EOS 550d, and I've been offered a Canon EOS 1D Mk2. Ooooo Full frame was my first reaction. But then I sat and thought it through... Is it too close to the same performance as my current camera? What do you guys think? I could use the 550d for...

Cheers Phil, I took the rule of thumb too literal lol :)

Good thread as I was thinking this the other day.. dade_f's post sounds pretty clear and concise, I'll definitely give this a try/bear it in mind when next taking portraits. Not sure on 1/50 for a 50mm, would you still not get potential blur on small movements?

Mine is coming away also, must be a common fault/weakness.

Are you going to show us your shots?

You should visit and view the local sights! Haha

Lol phil, only lived here a couple of years, chav Central!, whereabouts r u from?

Cheers for the advice, it sounds like your in no rush to get it back from your mate (which says a lot about the device). I'm from castleford, how about you?
