joeseph "smells like turd" More info | Apr 19, 2010 03:26 | #7865 lil_miss wrote in post #10020678 If anyone is interested - in a couple of weeks time they're having a Rally of NZ super stage in the Auckland Domain - Friday 7th May ![]() http://www.rallynz.org.nz/spectators/free-events Will be hopeless for photos as it will be dark, but still fun i'm sure ![]() looks like there might be more fun to be had on the Thursday morning... some fairly old canon camera stuff, canon lenses, Manfrotto "thingy", and an M5, also an M6 that has had a 720nm filter bolted onto the sensor:

Tim, I borrowed Duncan's 1DMk3 over the weekend, didn't have any tests in low light (just the opposite in fact) but the AF has to be experienced to be believed. Compared to my 30D, there is no comparison. You should really try one. In fact, you should talk to Warren as he uses one for his weddings. You're all too far north! I'd love to try a 1 series but I just can't get my hands on one. Though if anyone who has one wants to rent it to me i'd be happy to pay a decent fee.

I have a D700 for my next wedding, I think, having a 1D3 side by side would be interesting but perhaps a bit much to try all at once. I think you would break your back from lugging the things around.
