They seem to be "using" me when they can. In fact my MIL just expected me to bring my camera to the bridal shower and had to go home and get hers when I showed up EMPTY handed!

Shocking!!! And you obliged too....

Though it is easier being a man at a baby shower...when we went up north for my SIL's baby shower, I went skiing with my other BIL and a neighbour rather than hanging out with crazy women...took my camera too, I just don't trust anyone with it....esp the über-controlling MIL.

Interesting:

PMA 2009: Canon has announced a new AF fix for the EOS-1D Mark III and EOS-1Ds Mark III. This is in addition to the sub mirror fix issued earlier by Canon, and requires returning the camera to Canon for service. New firmware for the 1D Mark III and 1Ds Mark III has also been released to fix issues with live view, USB communication, and to update camera error codes. This brings the versions up to 1.2.5 and 1.1.4 respectively, and is available for download now.

mooorning... I was wondering... my sister in law is getting married next weekend. My husband is walking her down the aisle and my boys are the ring bearers. Whats my limitation on photography, since she will have one there, and its not me. Should I only get shots before and after the wedding? Is it okay to take your own pictures during a wedding? I dont want to stand up in front of anyone, just from the seat. Is that okay?
What would you do?

Do whatever you want till someone tells you to stop.

Or you could ask the pro either in advance or when the day arrives.

I would go with this option if I were in your shoes. I've been to a friends wedding in which I didn't know the photographer and didn't have any contact with him during the wedding and felt very very awkward shooting. Every little look I got from him was wierd, and the whole experience was just uncomfortable. (His pictures sucked btw and in retrospect I wish i would have just talked to him and then been more comfortable getting up and shooting so my friends could have had some decent pictures).

On the other hand, I was also at a wedding this year where the pro photogs were a friend and his wife. So i had very open communication with them and they pretty much invited me to take all the photos I wanted, and helped me with ideas and concepts It was a much cooler experience but they were also comfortable telling me to get out of their way because we had established that they were the pros. I also held flashes and reflectors for them on the group shots. They appreciated the extra set of hands and I got to learn a little about what wedding photography is like.

And I've tried both the "priority" contacts I was given when I registered my 1D Mark III. They appear to be a little understaffed at the moment. :rolleyes: Nothing but hold music and an empty in-box to show for my efforts so far.

I was just coming over to see if the M3 guys knew there's another hardware fix that needs to be done.

Firmware update page doesn't mention any changes to the AF operation, just these:

Canon wrote:

Corrects a phenomenon in which a displayed image becomes pitch-black if it is zoomed in on during Live View shooting.
Corrects a phenomenon in which "busy" may continue to appear on the camera if the USB cable is disconnected during USB communication.
Changes the error indications that are displayed on the camera. The error indications are further clarified to make the causes of errors easier to identify, and so that adequate support can be provided to our customers.

My shipping label is now on the way. I'm told to expect up to a 10 day turn around time. No specifics were available on exactly what they'll be doing.

Sounds like you've got a good start on training her.

Well, I had an amazing photo opportunity today,and I had the wrong lens on the camera.

https://photography-on-the.net …php?p=7448608#post7448608

I had the 5Dm2 with the 28-135 on it. I really could have used a lot more lens. 300 mm would have probably been just about right, but that was sitting in the closet at home.

Silly me. I didn't think I'd be taking any photos today.

I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!
