    I'm confused. USB rate disparity between Mac and Windows? Canon EOS 1Ds

    thanks guys, it's one of these that i've got... Kingston FCR-HS4 USB 3.0 Hi-Speed Media Reader, Grey/White: Amazon.co.uk: Computers & Accessories I think you must be right about it being the Mac that is the issue. It's odd that it works fine with the other cards but the 8GB ones it has an...

    I'm confused. USB rate disparity between Mac and Windows? Canon EOS 1Ds

    haha, yeah the 1Ds is pretty old. I bought it 2nd hand about 5 years ago and it was pretty ancient then. not many of them about anymore but still a half decent 2nd camera/backup. The mac is a 27" iMac from 2012 with a new SSD and 32GB RAM upgrades

    I'm confused. USB rate disparity between Mac and Windows? Canon EOS 1Ds

    So... this is a bit random, I have an ancient relic of a EOS 1Ds (mk1) which I absolutely love but I've come across a weird quirk. It wont accept anything higher capacity than a 8GB CF card (mostly because it's old tech and file sizes are small) - I have a few, that's not a problem. The issue...

    Odd print colours but just from a specific machine

    I did install the latest driver from the Epson site but it seems as though they now only do generic drivers for all their printers rather than specific models individually. I'll give it another go, cheers guys. failing that'll contact Epson and see if they can help.

    The only options it gives is Colour or B&W.

    Odd print colours but just from a specific machine

    Hi. I don't have another printer that I can use at home, but maybe a friend could give it a try. Thats a good shout on the physical connection. I'll try connecting via USB rather than the WiFi to see if that establishes anything. I'll try rebooting with the printer connected to see if it picks...

    Odd print colours but just from a specific machine

    Thanks. I'll have a good look though the manual and see what's what. I could probably get it to print well from the laptop by tweaking those channels/settings but the problem then will be printing from all other devices. I don't want to start messing too much with the printer as I know it's...

    Odd print colours but just from a specific machine

    I tried a few different images on the W10 laptop. Originally my wife tried printing some labels with a product photo on and the deep browns came out light yellow and the off-whites were not visible at all to the background. she tried the exact same document on our iMac and it worked fine. I...

    Yeah, I've been through them all (changed them all and changed them back again but to no avail).

    Odd print colours but just from a specific machine

    I tried a few different ways. Firstly opened the image (.jpg) from the desktop in the usual windows viewer and right-clicked "print". (very few options available). Then I also tried printing directly from google chrome and finally from PowerPoint after inserting the image and all of these...

    Odd print colours but just from a specific machine

    Hey guys and girls, My wife has just got a new windows 10 laptop. Whenever we print anything from it the colours come out awful. It's always over saturated and too bright. The picture on the left was printed from my phone via WiFi and the colours are true to the on-screen image. The picture...

    Wide-angle lens dilemma

    I shoot in a relatively small studio space and sometimes struggle to get enough in frame even zoomed right out at 24mm. Likewise at many wedding where I want the whole congregation in shot or inside or outside a venue/church/reception/etc

    Wide-angle lens dilemma

    My backup is a 1Ds mk1 buy I carry that with me on weddings with a 50mm f1.4 mounted. If lighting/iso was a problem I'd use flash either on or off-camera

    Wide-angle lens dilemma

    Thank you for all the recommendations comments and feedback guys it's really helpful. I've actually been looking at lots of reviews and think that I may have overlooked the canon 17-40 f4 which looks good and is also in my price range. My other FF lenses are canon L-glass so will suit nicely. I...
