Yes I know of it. Its crazy expensive. Its there business line of clothing, all made in Vancouver. So do you fly up there to do there photo shoots?

They have their own photographers on staff, I'm just some guy who gets lucky with pictures once in awhile and is a little known in my little corner of the industry.

Thank you!

Without wanting to sound rude so please forgive me, but did you boost the colours on this shot ?

Your question is not rude at all.

I performed some dodging and burning on the highlights and shadows to bring them out a bit more, and I increased the vibrance and saturation to +12. I also made some adjustments in the tonal curve. All of these adjustments were performed in camera raw.

Thanks, the reason I ask is because the coat looks a lot darker than any other I have seen. My sightings were all in the wild so I wondered if a captive cat had a naturally darker coat or if it was darkened by you.

I am not sure if the glass I was shooting through was treated, so that may or may not have any result in the color. I wouldn't think so, but you never know.

Nice Night shots vbudihardjo with the EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM. Get some Night shots of and From above, The Marina Bay Sands. You won't regret it.

I posted a separate thread but got no responses. Can someone give me a quick tutorial on how to "flash" the AF point when in AI Servo mode with spot-meter-linked-to-AF point? I shoot concerts with lots of dark and it seems the AF illumination makes it very difficult to impossible to see. I have read a couple of items suggesting that associating the M-fn2 button with a function will do this but I can't seem to get it, sigh. [Getting old sucks, but I guess it beats the alternative.]

i haven't used a 1Dx but i think it shares the same viewfinder/AF screen as the 5D3, and there is no way to do what you are asking about.

Yup, lots of research later and I have abandoned all hope. I have also discovered that the size of the 'single point' AF area extends way past the area marked by the black square causing me to get lots of 'focus on microphone rather than eye' images at Wilson Phillips concert. I'm liking my 1D4's better and better, but I will keep working with the 1DX as it is clearly Canon's 'Wave of the Future', sigh.
