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...

Wow! No 2 and No 5 are superb. Great set all round.

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...

The colours are fantastic, very rich. I quite like the low angle and composition. My only criticism is that the pose looks a little awkward but still works :-)

Very impressive. Can't imagine how you got those shots!

I had the pleasure of photographing Billy Idol and his band on their recent trip to the UK (a huge deal for me as I'm a lifelong fan of Steve Stevens, Billy Idol's guitarist and writing partner), here are some shots which Steve approved... hope you like them too? 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

Next time I'll set up black drapes...

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...

Finally! Someone makes an alternative take on the Newcastle bridges and succeeds! Great colour in the sky, nice and sharp where you need it to be and a very unusual technique to use on a city/landscape shot. Love it.
