15Apr Canon 5D Mark III – Group Buy Discount??

Tweet
Jonas writes in and shares a link to a discounted 5D Mark III through an organized Group Buy via eBay. To be honest, I wasn’t aware that these Group Buy Deals even existed, mainly because it’s only available in AU.
This is not available for USA residents (and other countries), but it’s worth taking a [...]

Still haven’t had time to go out to shoot with the new Nikon D600, but I was curious as to how the ISO noise would perform. I did a quick test compared to the Canon 5D Mark III which really sets the bar for ISO noise in DSLR cameras, and it’s something I use everyday. [...]

10Sep ViewFinders for Canon 5D Mark III?

Tweet
In bright daylight, it’s difficult to focus and set exposure on a bare LCD. Sometimes a quick LCD View Finder attached to the back of the camera is all you need (no batteries required). I still find an LCD View Finder a valuable tool to have, but haven’t seen many options available for the Canon [...]
