-=5D CLASSIC admirers, assemble! (6)

I just love that the 5DC files just come out good, a bit of tweaking for things like highlights and shadows, sure, a bit of tweaking for sharpening and possibly some noise reduction, sure, but the outcome with the 5DC is as a whole SWEET!!!!!

I bought my first DSLR this week. I started with m4/3 and still love to use my Minolta lesnes on my G6. But I wanted to try "full format" an I found a great deal on a 5D with grip, 32GB +4Gb+4Gb memorycards+grip.
So coming from EVF and full zoom capability in VF i realize there is a learning curve focusing. So I got the 50/1.8 II and i love the feeling I can zoom in at 100% and have a sharp picture with no noise. I will post some images here soon.

Congrats!

If the 5d had a screen equivalent to that of a modern one (7d/60d/6d/etc.) I would have no other reason to choose a body over the 5dc.

I love the 5Dc & 50mm f/1.8 combo, even though my 50mm's AF is hit or miss.

And welcome to POTN.

A few weeks ago, I posted "should I buy a 5D?". I thought I would give you guys a quick update.


All shot with EF 85mm F/1.8.

Well, there ya go!!

100L at 1/30 and ISO1600.

Is this F 2.8? What's the distance? I haven't had a chance to take my new 100 out of the box yet...hopefully this week now that I have a break in school...

Yes, 100L max aperture is 2.8, but this one is 5.6.
No idea about distance, I just framed it in VF.
Are you sure you need this lens ?
My was on camera as soon as I get it home.

Yeah I was asking about this particular image - this is 5.6? Tight DOF for 5.6! And yes, I've had this lens on my wish list for years. I plan on taking it out this week as I have finished all my university classes until mid-October. Three weeks of free time to kick the tires off my new 1DX and macro lens.

Nice images! This thread makes me regret selling mine, and almost puts me in the market to pick another one up. The images are simply amazing.
