July 9, 201313 yr comment_587645 Is that Canon or Amazon's "frustration free" packaging? Edited July 9, 201313 yr by blessingx Report
July 9, 201313 yr comment_587649 While I know the box doesn't say refurb, that's very similar to how Canon packages their refurb products. Report
July 9, 201313 yr comment_587661 Even refurb products come with warranty papers, etc. for the short warranty. I would assume anything new would come with warranty and some minimal advertising blurb or something. Report
July 9, 201313 yr comment_587669 I think if I got the custom case for this setup it might be about pocketable though the little S100 will probably remain as my preferred little camera. Report
July 9, 201313 yr comment_587671 I'm guessing Amazon sent you an open box lens. Edited July 9, 201313 yr by Salt Peanuts Report

July 11, 201313 yr comment_588075 I ended up picking up a UD35 and I can definitely see this bag weighing a ton if it's fully crammed with gear. It's deceptively small looking for what it can hold! Report
July 11, 201313 yr comment_588096 I guess this is the way new Canon EOS-M lenses ship? Nothing in the plain white box but the lens in bubble wrap.

July 13, 201313 yr comment_588604 22mm kit arrived yesterday. First tests (with Intelligent Auto, JPEG). Cropped in PS, but otherwise straight from camera. Focus still slow (updated firmware, spot, continuous disabled), but early impressions are IQ is decent. So far very happy. Edited July 13, 201313 yr by blessingx Report
July 13, 201313 yr comment_588620 Wow, I didn't realize the EF-M 22 mm had such short minimum focus distance with 1:2 magnification, on par with such "pseudo Macro" lenses like Zeiss 50 mm f/2 "Makro." Here's hoping B&H ships my backordered EOS-M with 22 mm as soon as possible. I would love to feed the RAW's through Nik Silver efex and Color efex. Report

July 17, 201313 yr comment_589210 This view presented itself as I walked out of my evening class tonight. I luckily grabbed a couple of quick shots because it was gone by the time I went to the balcony on the 4th floor. Nothing technically or compositionally amazing about it. Just thought it was a beautiful sky. The original - A couple of edits - Report
July 19, 201313 yr comment_589511 New Magic Lantern Improvement Adds 3 Stops of Dynamic Range to 5DIII and 7D Some interesting stuff for a couple of cameras that have "Dual ISO" processors, I believe. I have a buddy who is geeking out about it and thinking about putting ML on his 5D3. You shoot half the lines in ISO100, half in ISO1600 (at the same time), and it makes a composite which can be nice. Each of these cams can do it with stills, but the 5D3 can do it with video as well. Lots of links to technical stuff in the link above. **BRENT** Edited July 19, 201313 yr by MexicanDragon Report
