    Stolen Canon Equip, please be aware

    Sorry to hear that Chee, hope you have some joy at recovering the equipment. It's also a good reminder for folks to keep note of their serial numbers.

    Macro question.

    If you got the SB700 you could also get a bracket and an off shoe cord which lets you mount the flash closer to the front of the lens. I do this with my own macro setup although I use Canon but I'll assume there's a Nikon variant of the Canon off shoe cord. You'd also probably need to make some...

    PANAMOZ.

    Just want to say a few things. First up, thanks to Panamoz and Tina for a very smooth transaction this week for a 5D3 kit. Much appreciated, a great service and I'll definitely be using you again. Secondly for Mal (Galaxy66), you'd better find somewhere pretty decent to hide cus when my wife...

    Canon 5D MKIII official owners/users thread, anything related to the 5D MKIII

    Nice one Ali, mine came through as well although it's about 10 miles away at my parents house so will nip over later when I get a chance. Edit: Forgot to comment as well that I really like the straw bale shot above by Mark, very nice.

    Canon 5D MKIII official owners/users thread, anything related to the 5D MKIII

    I'm sure you folks are on top of things but for what it's worth I checked there now with my home insurance company regarding cover for a 5D3 and it was an extra £14 to get it covered away from home and it also had to be specified as it was over £1500. Just saying in case there's a mishap and...

    That's it Ali, expected to arrive by end of day tomorrow. Much quicker than I expected. @Allan, indeed he is looking forward to it's arrival.

    Canon 5D MKIII official owners/users thread, anything related to the 5D MKIII

    Thanks for the advice re CF cards a few post back. I ordered the 60mb/s one and if I find I'm using the video much I'll order a larger one as suggested. On another note my tracking number tells me that a plane left Dubai not so long ago with a parcel destined for my house (well parents...

    Canon 5D MKIII official owners/users thread, anything related to the 5D MKIII

    Folks, just wondering if you could shed some advice regarding compact flash cards for the camera. I was going to get an 8Gb card but it's been so long since I bought one I'm a bit confused at what I would need or what difference the speeds would make. Having used Sandisk previously it was a...

    where to buy canon 5d mark 3

    I paid via bank transfer and the item is being sent to my parents house for convenience as I'll be away at the weekend. The different address wasn't queried at all as I can only imagine the only address details they'll receive with a bank transfer are the ones you provide them with. The...

    where to buy canon 5d mark 3

    Also got shipping confirmation and tracking number on my parcel. If it came Friday it would be nice as I'll be able to take it on a family trip I'm going on. It's getting sent to my parents house anyhow so no biggie if it comes after Friday or not. I will say, that so far as regards...

    where to buy canon 5d mark 3

    That's a very good point and I missed it when you first wrote it. Weird thing is that either yesterday or day before I was reading on another forum about a guy who done this with a car and got his full payment back after making a £100 payment on his card as you suggested.

    where to buy canon 5d mark 3

    At a guess he means that folks will likely bank transfer to Panamoz as it offers the best price however if you use Digital Rev it would likely be with a credit card which would cover any losses that would occur. If that is what he means though it's a bit of a pointless statement as it's more to...

    Canon 5D MKIII official owners/users thread, anything related to the 5D MKIII

    That looks great for ISO 4000, certainly compared to my 20D anyhow which doesn't even go as far as that. I hope to order one fairly soon.

    Upgrading from 20d 18-55

    Hi Chris, I also have a 20D and think it's a great camera. Are you aware that when you have an image on the LCD that you can zoom in and out using the 2 buttons at the top right, back of the camera where your right hand thumb would rest when holding the camera. Here's a picture I took...
