Missed this uploading to Flickr - probably my fav of the set today ..... got wet feet as hadn't realised the tide was coming in, and every now and then a wave surged right up ...

One thing I noticed with stopping down the camera - a heap of dust, and consequently a bit of work in PSE cloning it out!!! Might need to send camera on for a clean, but can't bear to be without it. Been thinking about Sony as a second body , as some of them accept Canon lenses with an adaptor I understand, giving full auto control ... but not sure.

You can see a ghostly outline of my little dog on the bank.

I've been away for sometime and haven't kept up with all the changes in the camera market. I have a 50D and was a phot nut at one time. Due to work and other personal things, I let photography go. Now, getting back into the hobby that I enjoy.

So, can I have some feedback on the 70D and the differences between it and the 50D. I would like to upgrade (although there is nothing wrong with my 50D) and would like to know what the 70D holds.

Thanks.

I went from the 50D to the 70D as my upgrade path. Other than the obvious SD card instead of CF and flip/touch screen, for me there were several other not so obvious things that made a difference. I find the focus system was much better than the 50D, and it's slightly smaller size and weight was a positive for me. The 70D performs much better at higher ISO's and is not subject to the banding you would see with the 50D. At the end of the day, I found the images produced from the 70D were just better than the 50D (with the same set of lenses), and I shot in raw with both. Colors were more accurate and there was an improvement in it resolving details better than my 50D.

I have printed significantly more photos produced from my 70D than I ever did with my 50D.

I like that the 60/70D have auto ISO in manual mode. I like it for BIF and action.

Spotted a weevil - gently and somewhat precariously walking up a small shrub's main trunk - and seeing as I had a yellow on yellow recently with a wasp, I thought this should follow in that vein as an insect being brown on brown...

Image is too big you need to take a smaller resolution in the BB code like medium.

Never had this happen before. Thanks - should have been able to work that out
