Can we finally agree that 5D mk3 is the ultimate after so many years ? ..

It has 60p raw?? I missed that. How stable is it? How long does it run for?

With the regular ML Raw, not the experimental builds, I got 10-20 seconds of recording without any issue. It’s not full 1080p though.

you use 9 lenses ? oh boi, all you need is contax zeiss 28mm f2.... the less you use the more creative you become

iso - u wat? 12800 still remains very profesional  with beautiful film grain like grain

CTB APPROVED

I use what I find right for the task at hand      ISO 12800 is sometimes not enough if I went to shoot at night and especially if you want to use a slower aperture at night or a faster shutter speed (ask your mum if you can stay up tonight and see).

  A 28mm lens alone isn't going to cut it when I want 300 2.8 or tilt shift or macro or to fit in a six or seven piece rock band and have them all in shot or a more blurred background or head/shoulders portrait or..

discuss!

Yes.  I, random stranger on the internet, affirm that you made the correct camera purchase for yourself.  Congratulations.  You are awesome.  Now go make something interesting with it.

And to think, some people actually have to work on themselves to be interesting... not this cat.

I am still playing cos I am still just passing the time but I wonder which of the regulars "you" are?

Oh and samples showing how that 28mm lens (or is it 21 now?) replaces those other lenses since I need to learn.

My apologies for suggesting you ask your mum.

Maybe it should be your treating Physician?

I just bought the 21mm Zeiss and paid for it by selling my A7s and 28mm Zeiss - thanks for the great advice!

I was beginning to think that we need JCS to tell us whether this is some obscure AI bot at work... but then I realised there’s an issue with the “I” part...

It isn't a Metal band because I have not shot one of those for around three years but geez I would have loved to have an A7s when I did.

Great, so I take it you will show how to do it?        I look forward to learn from you and  obviously you will only use your Canon 5diii and 28 f2 Zeiss.      That is a full band shot from next to the stage with at least six musicians all visible and in focus.    

That wasn't high ISO in my book (it is only ISO 10,000) and was a jpeg as taken and no it is with a Canon 17 TS-E    There was nowhere else I could move for the framing though of course, you will now provide that 28 f2 shot to prove me wrong?   No?

[Liam]

So I guess you're right, Canon the Barbie. 5diii by a landslide. Maybe even the original 5d. Mods can kill the thread now
