~*Shell*~ Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 (edited) I went for a walk with lovemesideways today and thought I would take my camera (and new lens) with me. I didn't expect to get anything special but here are some shots anyway: Riddick Rover (for some reason I didn't get as many of Rover, will have to get more next time!): The boys: And then of course, the obligatory shots of Zero, the off-leash sibe Edited September 5, 2010 by ~*Shell*~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~*Shell*~ Posted September 5, 2010 Author Share Posted September 5, 2010 Thanks! I think I need more practice with the lens though - for some reason I'm having focusing issues and I'm sure it's me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~*Shell*~ Posted September 5, 2010 Author Share Posted September 5, 2010 It's a 70-200mm 2.8 huga - awesome lens but I'm still trying to get used to the extra weight of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

~*Shell*~ Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 (edited) They're beautiful Shell, I bet she's thrilled with them.Hey Shell, have you seen this thread. I dont think you're on there yet. http://www.dolforums.com.au/index.php?show...203980&st=0 Yeah, I'm a little reluctant to put up what I have in my kit. ;) People can pretty much see what I've got anyway if they look at what I shoot! beautiful photo's I love the one with them lying together and the second onegreat job I have a 70-200 f/4L and you have to be spot on with the focusing at times..I have lots of out of focus dogs and beautfilly in focus grass can I ask what camera body you use I'm only shooting on a 450D at the moment - hopefully I'll have the funds to buy a better body soon! I'm tossing up between a 5D mark II or a 7D. I'm finding the same issue with the 2.8 - it's a beatiful crisp lens but it goes for the subject that isn't moving rather than the one that is! Most of what I shot yesterday was on manual focus because it just annoyed me! Edited September 6, 2010 by ~*Shell*~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodo's mum Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 (edited) I have a 450 as well and thinking I would love a 5D mark 11 or a 7D...so I know how your feeling ;) it's frustrating isn't it with the focus ..but I'm getting better your photo's are just beautiful though I would be wrapped them when I was reading up on both lens it said the 7D is not a full frame camera....what does that mean ?????

~*Shell*~ Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 Full frame means that it's the equivalent of the 35mm film frame which means it's bigger than what you have on your 450D. I think the sensor size on a full frame is 36mm x 24mm whereas the size of the 450D's sensor (as well as most of the other DSLRs in canon's range) are APS-C size which from memory is about 22mm x about 15mm on a canon but a bit bigger on some other cameras (like nikon). What you see on your camera, would be the middle of the photo taken on a full frame camera (like you'd cropped the sides off it) - like a rectangle (APS-C) within a rectangle (full frame) if that makes sense. I don't explain it very well - look it up on google. Someone will be more articulate than I am! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~*Shell*~ Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 (edited) I didn't get anything good of Rover in the last shoot so I hope this makes up for it - still not happy but Rover was a little drooley today so can't do a huge amount about that!!

~*Shell*~ Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 Thanks!! It's strange photographing non-spitz dogs. They don't seem to smile like the spitzies (or kelpies) do. I'm having to think on my feet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
