    Quoted battery life

    The quoted battery life on my 50d batteries is 800 shots, I was shooting with a battery grip and 2 genuine batteries at the weekend when I arrived home I had 1911 photos I estimate I had taken over 2000 but was deleting some as I went along. My battery meter is still showing maximum. According...

    12800iso, That looks great! Looks better than a 7d at 3200!

    Canon 7d11

    Getting back to the Camera (sort of), I thought I'd download the manual to peruse whilst dreaming over my new camera:p 548 pages!!!!! I thought it was multiple Languages at first. I just checked my 20d was 168 pages and the 50d 228. If it keeps going this way the manual for the 7dmk4 will be...

    Well I don't think it is my attitude as I haven't been on here in about 6 months and all my recent posts are on this thread because I'm thinking of getting a 7D2. As I said I don't come on here that often but a reasonable response, in my opinion, would have been I do it like this because x,y,z...

    Wow! I didn't mean to offend. I suggest you take a break if you are getting wound up by this civil discussion. I'm sure you are a very good photographer and your 6d is an excellent camera.

    And chocolate makes a surprisingly good material to make tea pots out of, as long as you are happy with it melting.;) I find when shooting sports I rarely want the center AF point, faces are never in the center of my frame because if they are there is a load of space above them!

    The 6D is clearly a different beast. If you want to shoot anything sporty or fast, anyone in there right mind would pick a 7d2 over a 6d. AF speed matters for some, I prefer my 50d over my uncles 5d2 for sports despite the full frame and better iso performance because the 5d's AF is better so...

    I often shoot Gigs and Roller Derby, Fast and Dark, even with a 70-200 2.8 I struggle with the 3200iso of my 50D, so the that is why people what low light performance, forgive me for saying but that was a really stupid question! This looks to be the camera for me, I love the new grip too...

    Images in Windows Photo Viewer much darker than in other apps

    Thanks I'd already read the first links posted and disregarded it, I'll have a go tonight. It's very strange I don't remember re profiling recently and this only seems to have happened in the last few weeks. Hopefully I'll get time to have a look tonight if not it'll be Wednesday. I'll let ya'll...
