I pulled my 1D2 out of storage today after it's been sitting for over a year and half after I got my 5D2. To my surprise, I was blown away by how fast the AF is compared to my 5D2 and T3i. Truly an amazing camera. I just wish the LCD screen was better.


I need to stay out of the buy/sell forum. It's burning a hole in the wallet...

First opportunity to properly test my repaired MkII N. Pleased to say that not only is it working flawlessly but the batteries I thought were almost dead are doing great too so the short life must have been caused by the camera issues. One quick snap from a bunch of rather boring pics I took today:

Never tampered with the sharpness, is it worth it? I shoot JPEG mainly, but now have started shooing RAW+JPEG.

I shoot RAW all the time and have the in camera sharpness as low as possible, as well as everything else. It results in a flat, low contrast, image but obviously gives you the most flexibility in post.

If my image is going to be horribly over-sharpened I'm going to be the one responsible for it, not my camera ;)

Er, you know that the in-camera image settings are only applied to JPEGs, and don't impact your .cr2 files though, right? I believe only DPP will see them, and apply them to a .cr2. Other applications aren't affected.

Yeah sorry I wanted to mention this but couldn't really decide how. I use a Sony A99 most of the time (the MkII is my potentially-damaging-locations camera) and I believe the settings are carried across and read (reversibly of course) by ACR although I'm honestly not sure. I just set everything as low as possible to have a base image to start with. I have no real technical basis for this, I'm very much the amateur, it's just how I've always used the A99.

Also in camera sharpening and noise reduction with the Alpha cameras in .jpg mode can get really ugly at high iso settings.

I wish I knew what DPP stood for.
