Just came back from a local bar where friends of mine performed. It was dark but not that terribly. I brought newly acquired 70-200 2.8L lens but it couldn't focus on any thing except brightly lighted area. I understand that it needs some lighting but what about the Mark III's high ISO? Am I supposed to use manual focus when it's dark? Last time I used my original 5D at a bar, I don't remember having problems using AF. Am I supposed to set up something differently? Anythoughts?


Keeping you in my view.

I find myself shooting at 6400iso with the mkIII without giving it a second thought. I was shooting in all sorts of poorly lit areas today at the zoo and didn't have any troubles. The pics were snapshotty and boring (which is why I didn't post them) but technically speaking they were fine.

Wow. so you didn't have any problem using AF on dark point, huh? Was it daytime?
What lens did you use though? Thanks anyhow.

Keep in mind, as amazing as the AF is, the system needs a bit of contrast to function properly in low light conditions. You really can't try and focus on a dull flat dark surface and get good AF reaction. Some sort of contrast is needed for good AF results in low light.

Exactly. No matter how good it is, it will need a bit of contrast to lock on. It's not going to lock on without it.

=Cap'n Fishy;15536522]I 'own' a small corner of the interweb and I upload my photos to it at 1020 x 680 landscape or 500 x 750 portrait (have done since long before Flickr and the likes came along). Size of my files is anything from 100 to 300 KB. I just paste the urls into the dialog window via the <Insert image> tool. It works fine and they display at full size without degredation of IQ. In fact, of the various forums I post images to, this is the best for no-nonsense display.

Interesting. I'll have to give that a try. Is the interweb the same thing as the internet? :lol:
