dog dog dog!

I'm now a proud owner of a 6D. Really like it so far.

Loving this camera, had it for 3 days now, this is my first try with the Tokina 11-16 f2.8 on it, which works pretty good at 15-16mm, so it's pretty much a prime when used on full frame.

I've noticed that when I'm using the viewfinder and want to select an AF point with the scroll wheel, I can only choose the points on the centre horizontal line - is there a setting to scroll through all points?

The main wheel scrolls left-right, the control dial on the back scrolls up-down.

Nice photos of the peacock - very creative!

How did u get the Tokina 11-16 to work on a full frame 6D? Isn't that lens specific to APS-C only? Curious to know.

Canon EF-S lenses when mounted on a FF intrude into the camera and interfere with the mirror. But Tokina lenses don't. However, you can only use this lens (11-16mm) zoomed from about 15 to 16mm. Below that, photos taken with a FF camera show very dark areas at the corners. I use mine at 16mm and it works just fine. What some people are doing is modifying the EF-S 10-22 (?) so that it can be used on FF.

Like most other people here, still loving my 6D. Amazing camera.
I have been tripped up by the auto iso a few times now though. - I generally leave the camera in auto iso as the results are just so good at higher iso's i rarely need to worry about them.
However a few times I have shot panoramas in M (I usually use A) to achieve constant lighting throughout the scene but have forgotten to lock the iso. So when stitching the pano I've noticed that the camera has changed the iso between shots which has spoiled a few of my panos. Live and learn I guess?

Another from my time in Sydney recently.

Ah. Cheers!

Loving the 6d. HUGE step up after 5 years with a 30D.
