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

It's funny how there's so much talk about diffraction on newer high pixel density cameras these days. One of the many nice things about shooting with the 5D Classic is that we don't have to worry about stopping down to f/16.

Love the backlight on her hair. Makes the shot for me!

Wow...nice lighting. Perfectly nailed.

Does this mean that you're not popping for the new 50mp 5DS?

Not a chance lol. I was considering getting a 5D Mark iii but changed my mind. I'm going back in time and getting more and more old school. My next piece of kit will probably be a Mamiya RB67 haha, plus more m4/3 stuff for my E-M10 and a Fuji X100T.

Thank you, guys!
Glad you like it, 5D is amazing camera for current price.

Iam planning to wait for 5DmkIV as well, 5Ds is not for me.

Let it riff...

5Dc + Nifty 50 <----

I'll be going forward to go back, if that makes sense. A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, you were one of the guys that turned me on to adapted lenses. Continuing with that, I'll be picking up a FF Sony mirrorless sooner or later just to have a wider gamut of lenes available to me. What remains to be seen is whether or not I'll keep the ol' 5D. I'll probably keep them around side by side for a while, and see if it's a body that I frequently come back to.

Makes total sense! One of the reasons I love the E-M10 is because adapted lenses work like a charm on it with magnification and focus peaking. Changed my mind about the 5Diii for a similar reason, because you can't change the focus screen for using adapted lenses like you can on the 5D classic.

Headed out to the Valley of Fire this past weekend.

not had many opportunities to try my 5d, and after after suffering without a camera for weeks I've kinda forgotten how to take real life pictures(I'm good at imagining it though), but here we go...
