-= 6D Owners Unite! Discuss and post Photos!

From a shoot yesterday

^^^ nice.

Used AI servo, it was hit and miss, well lot more misses than hits actually with sigma 85mm f1.4 when shooting < f2.0 but I got this last evening.

Picked up my 6d yesterday, haven't really had a proper chance to use it yet so going to take it out somewhere tomorrow.

First impressions:

Controls are in different places, but am getting the hang of it. Seems slightly smaller and lighter than my 5Dc. High ISO performance is amazing. I've taken a few indoor shots at ISO 1600, 3200 and 6400 and they're very very usable. Woo!

The city.

9 hours in the computer to put this together with PS CC.

Panoramic stitch with focus stacking and perspective control of many images. This shot is so insanely complex that I almost threw in the towel, but thankfully I was able to do a lot of operations manually by hand that were failing in automation. Almost got a little too ambitious there!

I don't really like the way flickr has added sharpening to this photo, though.

Wonderful result! I can see why it was a bastard: stacking + panorama + perspective + high res files = nightmare haha.

Edited another shot from last week:

Hello all! I rented a 6D with the 17-40 f4L to try before I buy. Question, I have the focus points set to center only however, there have been a few occasions where the camera lit up several focus points when facing towards the sun or into a high contrast situation. Is there a setting that allows this?

The set button changes instantly between limited and all points. Is it possible you hit the switch into all, then registered the extra points?

Just posted this over in the 24-105 Lens Sample thread, but since it's also from a 6D, I thought I'd at least reference to it here.

I tried again today and it is still doing this on occasion when the lens is pointed towards a bright light source. I had a 580EX II mounted on it the first time I noticed it. Today, I was shooting indoors (wedding reception) with a YN-622c mounted on the 6D's hotshoe and the 580EX II in the transceiver's hotshoe. I notice it did it again when I was pointed towards the DJ's lights. Not sure if this has something to do with the bright light (high-noon sky the day before and DJ's lights tonight) entering the lens or not. It could also be this particular body as it is a rental.
