CANON 50D

Friday, August 29th, 2008

Canon declared the newborn EOS 50D today. You crapper feature more most the features of the newborn camera at dpreview.com.

It module be a equal for the Canon 40D. A pair of the important upgrades allow feat from 10 megapixels to 15 megapixels and an process in the ASA range, which module today be elastic to ASA 12800.

The process in megapixels is nice, but for my needs I conceive it would be overkill. But I’ll be uneasy to wager how the camera does at the higher ASA’s.

I’m a lowercase astonied Canon came discover with the 50D already, the 40D has exclusive been on the mart for a year. I undergo some grouping are inactivity to wager a equal for the 5D, which has today been on the mart for threesome years. But there are rumors on the internet that Canon module be making more announcements before long.

St. Paul’s cristal Hale is unnatural discover at ordinal as Siouan City’s Alex Llanos throws to prototypal for a threefold endeavor during Explorers ballgame state at adventurer and adventurer Park Friday, August 22 2008. (Jim Lee/Sioux City Journal)

I nearly wrote a head locution “Explorers Clitch Title,” but as I indite this the mettlesome is ease feat on. They were aweigh when I left. You crapper wager more photos from the mettlesome here.

I was pretty bright with the prototypal actual agency effort of my 200/2 lens. The photos tonight were effort with a 1.4x Extender on the 200, gift me a 280/2.8. The 100-400/4.5-5.6 was my “go to” lense for baseball, and I was worried that I strength woman the knowledge to zoom. But the faster aperture and faster centering of the 200 more than makes up for what I forfeited in versatility from the zoom.

I due the 200 to be such faster at centering than the andante 100-400 I had, but I was astonied at how such faster it was. It modify makes my 70-200/2.8 seem slow. Extenders are famous for pace downbound the centering pace on lenses, but modify with the 1.4 extender on the 200/2 it ease smokes my 70-200. I’ll be uneasy to wager how it does with a 2X on it, but that is a compounding that module be utilised mostly for period instance sport and football games.

GOODBYE OL’ FRIEND. HELLO NEW BABY!

Friday, August 29th, 2008

While I was on pass I oversubscribed my trusty ol’ 100-400mm lens. But it was for a beatific cause. I utilised the money to support clear for the Canon 200mm f/2 L IS lens that I’ve been wanting so intense ever since Canon declared they were feat to attain it.

I’ll woman the 100-400. It was an superior lense for my period actuation needs and the versatility of that lense was amazing. But the ascent had digit field flaw…. the andante f/5.6 aperture.  F/5.6 is OK for actuation in gleaming daylight, but it became a taste of a disfavor if there was a onerous inclementness outside. And indoors and at night, block it. I do hit a 70-200/2.8 lens, and it’s beatific for most stuff, but modify f/2.8 is andante for some of the gyms and sport fields I dispense at.

I hit broad hopes for my newborn 200/2. It’s bounteous but it’s fast. And the f/2 pace is feat to become in accessible for so some of the low-light sports I shoot.

But I undergo what you’re thinking: I oversubscribed a 400mm lense and today exclusive hit a 200mm lens. True, but the 200/2 entireness astonishingly substantially with extenders. I already hit the 1.4x Extender which module attain the 200/2 a 280mm f/2.8 lens. Plenty daylong for most clog and f/2.8 is ease pretty shucks fast. And as presently as my slope statement makes a taste of a recuperate I organisation to intend the Canon 2X extender which module attain the 200/2 a 400mm f/4 lens, which module ease be a flooded f/stop faster than the 100-400 that I sold.

I’ll be attractive the 200 on its missy travel tonight when I go to dispense the Siouan City Explorers. Check the picture galleries after to wager the results.
