It has been a hectic week again, hardly any time to shoot. I have sold my Canon EOS 40D body on Bangalore Photography Club Forum. I have booked my Canon EOS 5D Mark II from Camshot.in. I was told that 5D Mark II will be reaching India on 20th Dec. Hopefully I will be in the first batch of recipients.

Pixel-peepers from DPReview Forum have noticed that Canon EOS 5D Mark II pictures show clusters of black dots/edges on the right side of blown highlight areas. Numerous discussions are heating up at community forums; some reported artifacts are presented on raw data (not post-processing errors) and are more rampant in high ISO but appeared less on low iso shots, others, include a Canon tech response to the ill-effects are limited on long exposures with high ISO images, similar occurrences have been reported and fixed via firmware in previous models.

Frankly, it’s not an issue at alarming rate; of course, unless your works involve pixel-peeping beyond 200%. The tiny black dots on aren’t likely to affect the overall 21MP image. Thanks goodness the issue is said to be easily repaired. Personally I am not perturbed by these developments and not canceled my booking ;) .

Exciting time ahead

I have been dormant from blogging for a long time. Last one year has been quite a refreshing one. Photography has become a major part in my life. It was all because of the purchase of the DSLR camera Canon EOS 40D. I was happy shooting from bridge camera till then but it never used to give me the satisfaction that a SLR could give. So camera ended as just a point and shoot stuff till last year. With purchase of 40D in January all this changed. I could get results out of the camera as I wanted.

Last 8 months were used to master both the camera as well as post processing techniques using Photoshop CS3 & Lightroom.

Now it is exciting to hear that new camera from Canon is on the horizon Canon EOS 5D mark II. Also out is the new version of Photoshop called Adobe photoshop CS4. All these have technology so interesting that they are going to revolutionize the way we percive photography.

I plan to restart my blog which will now focus on these topics. So until next time see yaa
