I can't believe you shoot mostly .jpg's! I'm looking for a reason to move away from shooting only "RAW" and your pics give me hope.

Yeah, RAW is more of a hassle than it's worth, most of the time. There are unique situations where it might be useful but 95% of the time I'm in JPEG. A lot of my work is on a deadline, so that is also a factor. I don't have time to mess with a bunch of RAW files.

How do you have your jpeg picture style set up?

That is one fantastic shot!

Thanks. I forgot to mention that the image is a 7 exposure bracketed hdr.

Did some shooting at ISO 12,800 at the Pittsburgh Aviary this weekend and I was extremely impressed with the performance at that ISO. In the process of editing the set now, but here is one with a crop at 100%.

Wow!

Another at ISO 6400... No unsharp mask or any third party NR software. Just LR4 with my standard sharpening and NR settings (same for ISO 6400 as it is for ISO 100)... NR is minimal at 12 luminance and 15 color. Sharpening at 45, my default.

really really impressed with every raw file I've opened up to edit with LR4... no need to push sharpness a lot... money, money, money hehehe

Ahhh I see!
That's a great shot! Cherry Blossom Festival?

I upgraded from a T3i so things seem quite different on this cam.

1. When I had the t3i, I'd be able to click the 'q' button(in manual mode) and the menu would pop it. I could then go through the menu items and change and select, then change each individual one. When I click 'q' on this 5d3, the menu pops up, but only allows me to select the "Auto Lighting Optimizer", "card record location", and "record quality". But by clicking the info button theres more settings displayed on the screen, I just cant change them with the joystick. Is there anyway to be able to allow me to select the other options and chamge them(ie AWB, Picture style, AF) Mind you, this is when shooting in live view mode... (I hope my question isn't hard to understand. )

2. On the T3i, video mode had its seperate location on the mode dial. So when I wanted to record video, I'd change the mode dial to video and all of my previously used settings were there. Well here, I would go video mode in manual, but when doing so, it would still have my picture settings. Anyway to set it up so that in manual mode while on pictures it has one set of settings, but when I flip the switch to video, my video settings come into play, or must I change the settings everytime I switch modes?


PS. Im currently still reading the manual. This is the first manual I've ever actually read in my life lol.

Loving the work in this thread. I need to stay out or I'm going to be a poor, poor man.

I use Standard with the sharpening moved up one notch from whatever is default.

I believe if you push the joystick IN, it should allow you to toggle through the different options.
