Description To try the new camera, I wanted to make some magpies shots. And to say the least, I was happy with the 5D Mark II autofocus... but this one is ASTONISHING. So many parameters but they are all very useful. I was expecting something close to the 7D... but it seams that it is better !!!

I hope that the picture looks good to you Because their will be more to come, for sure

Enjoy

Ha ha ha. Why ?

I knew that some cameras didn't like their owner... but not that some mode didn't like their user

It just keeps focusing on the wrong thing. xD

phalalcrocorax In reply to amaliabastos [2013-05-18 20:57:06 +0000 UTC]

Ha ha ha I understand that. The best is to use only one focusing point, and if the camera lock on the background, the best is to stop and press the shutter button again

Yeap. Reinitialize the focussing process by pressing the button again is one of the most important thing You will see, it will come with time !!

What a fantastic capture, very well done. I wish I could get such a capture sharp but my equipment struggles even with bigger moving animals (also the continuous shooting speed drops to 1 fps when using AI Servo AF and MF is no option for moving animals) so I never get sharp what I want :/

Hi

Thanks for your comment I used the 400D a lot and I can tell you that it is a great camera for flight shots !!! But you are right, it is not very often that the picture is sharp It is the reason why I try again and again !!!

Here are some pictures I did with the 400D :

You are so true, the 5D MkIII will be my main camera for a LOOOOOONNNNGGGGGG time. I won't feel the need of something else for a long time as all the small mistakes from the MkII has been corrected on this camera
