I have been having problems with autofocus with this camera and mean to try some tests. I assure you that his is on a tripod and centre spot focus as near to the eye as possible using the sigma 2.8 70-200. A fill in flash used.
I started photography with a 5x4 plate of my father's back in 1948 - built first enlarger aged 12 and 120 film using a Bessa then int 35mm slr abut 1960 plus the Rolli TLR Used photoshop as soon as it arrived and put off digital until the canon 300D.
Now use the 40D and 600D taking anything that interests me - a lot of youngsters for school events and at youth clubs. My images have raised a lot of money for charities.
This softness in annoying me - yes my images are for pleasure, but still learning, anyone who isn't is a fool. I hope the forum is to share our pleasure in photography. I have produced prints to get 20/20 at clubs, but the formula approch was no real pleasure - just to prove a point. My score on other's work it WISHI'D - yes I wish I had taken that. Have fun on the forum - don't put folk off (I have a well developed thick skin in my 70's) and be willing to express an honest opinion and advice
Grumpy old man of the Fens!
