Nope, I'm not on dialup. I should have time in the next few days to send some pictures your way. I usually don't have the time to touch up RAW, so I rarely shoot it. The pics will be high res jpegs.

If you're not on dialup, could you send me a few full sized images of what you've shot? I'd love to see them in untouched detail.

There were some bugs early on with the 20D since I got it hot off the press. Since the last firmware update, I haven't had a repeat of the lock ups and various other problems. Canon seems to have gotten a handle on things now, so I doubt you'd ever see the problems the first bodies came with. I do find myself manually focusing much of the time with all my lenses in most conditions because I'm never quite happy with where/how it chooses to focus.

How do you like the camera so far? Kudos and Complaints welcome!

Nice pic, btw :)

Also, what's the aperture on that lens? ]]> feeds@yuku.com (aaron florian) http://chondroforum.yuku.com/sreply/8884 Wed, 07 Sep 2005 13:27:01 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: DSLR and Lenses ]]> http://chondroforum.yuku.com/reply/8883/t/DSLR-and-Lenses.html#reply-8883
Here is the 100mm macro lens used on a Canon 20D with natural light. I love the lens!

"....these macro lenses you're talking about, these are fixed, not zoom?"

Yes, they are fixed. However, there are some zoom lenses available that have so-called macro capabilities. Lens technology has come a long way the last ten to twenty years or so, and zoom lenses with macro settings are actually not that bad in some cases, depending on the brand. But you'll... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (chondroland) http://chondroforum.yuku.com/sreply/8881 Fri, 02 Sep 2005 04:27:37 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: DSLR and Lenses ]]> http://chondroforum.yuku.com/reply/8880/t/DSLR-and-Lenses.html#reply-8880
Rich, Thanks, I would love to get that information when you get it.

I bought the Sony 8MP F828 a year + ago (it's like a DSLR, but fixed lens) and the first thing I noticed in taking "real" pictures (where you're controlling all the parameters of the shot) is that Light is REALLY important to photography!

I'll find his info and post it, as I don't have it with me at the moment. I do know that I would strongly recommend their "L" series lenses (if you can afford them). The optics in all their "L" series lenses are some of the best glass out there.

If you've decided on Canon get their 100mm Macro lens. It's not inexpensive but it will provide you with the possibility of outstanding images. Their 50mm macro is also good but the 100mm gives you more working room (distance between you and the subject). Also, if you're willing to use a tripod, take a look at their 90mm tilt/shift lens, if they still offer it. It's an interesting lens that would work great for a lot of reptile photography. Canon also makes a macro lens that goes... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (chondroland) http://chondroforum.yuku.com/sreply/8876 Tue, 30 Aug 2005 03:08:32 GMT <![CDATA[ DSLR and Lenses ]]> http://chondroforum.yuku.com/topic/2218/t/DSLR-and-Lenses.html
I'm strongly considering joining the full DSLR gang, but the choices of lenses is baffling. FWIW, I'm going Canon line. Their DSLRs seem to be very popular and their lenses highly regarded.

I'm going to miss my 25mm-200mm zooming, but I think i'll get over it.
