chaostrophy said:Canon rebates tend to be a good deal, I've bought pretty much all my lenses on rebate.
You know, I didn't think I'd ever get to this point...but right now I have all the lenses I want. There are really no more that I feel I need.

Topher said:I have a T2i, and am going to upgrade to a Sigma 30mm (I think) from the stock 18-55mm can. My question is: why is this fixed focus Sigma considered better than the 18-55? Perhaps a stupid question, but I am a bit of a novice.
Hcoregamer00 said:That is awesome, I also suggest getting a fixed prime lens for the little fellow once he is born.
Can't go wrong with the nifty fifty or the 85 f1.8.
DoctorWho said:So I set Auto-ISO Sensitivity to 1600 for when I'm in low light conditions. Is this wise? I have my default ISO setting at 200. The camera should only override when it feels it needs to, right?
I've been using a new-to-me Minolta 50mm f/1.7 and it is fantastic.MaizeRage25 said:I was thinking the 50mm/f1.8. Only about $120 and should be pretty good for baby portraits.
Flo_Evans said:If you have it on autoISO yes.
It depends on the action though. If shooting handheld and trying to take pictures of people crank it up. You will get more noise, which the camera should (if left default) try and smooth out with some blur. Turn off "high ISO noise reduction" to keep the noise (and detail) intact. Much better to do NR latter after you can see it than the camera doing a blanket blur of the image. If you have a tripod (and nothing is moving) you can leave the iso low and do a long exposure.

I'm looking at finally buying a camera after not having one for a couple years now and have no idea where to start. One of my friends suggested this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004M8SVBQ/?tag=neogaf0e-20 as something to start out with. Now I'd like something relatively inexpensive, but I also want something halfway decent that I can take good pictures with.
Wouldn't mind getting into photography as a hobby, as I'm looking for a new hobby to get into with my free time.
Any help is appreciated.
Try Recuva.Kadey said:Any of you guys know of a good program or way to recover data from an SD Card? I went to a event over the weekend and took tons of videos and pictures only to come home and found out my card got corrupted. Some of those pictures were priceless. It really saddens me. I tried everything I knew to get it working. I have the worse luck when it comes to these things.

luoapp said:Mercutio, did you try 7D's micro-focus adjust function?
CrudeDiatribe said:Have used PhotoRec successfully on Mac and Linux computers. There's a version for Windows/DOS as well.
It doesn't save your focus compensation? I feel like I need to benchmark my 7d now. I never had any problems with it, but I haven't used it as much as my nikons.Mercutio said:I did. It improved things a little but didn't get me all the way there... and I don't feel like I should have to dive into menus every time I attach a new lens.

Combichristoffersen said:I recommend PhotoRec too. I used the Windows version just the other day to recover photos from a HD that had, for some reason, suddenly gone from having NTFS partitions to having RAW partitions.

17-55 and the 24-70 are probably the 2 best options for all around lenses for the 7D, that is IMO. However, even my 7D took some getting used to. I thought my lens was a little soft but it really isn't. The 7D is no 5DMII and a zoom lens is no prime.ConvenientBox said:I'm finding my 7d to be quite soft in areas too... and I have a 17-55 which is supposed to be incredibly sharp.
alphaNoid said:I'm looking at a nifty fifty (50mm 1.4) but may settle for the 85mm 1.8 due to cost.
tino said:At that price point, you can't honestly expect a half way decent camera. Unless you are willing to buy a used Fujifilm F200EXR (why Fuji? because they have lower used price.) I can't even recommend an used LX3.
Flo_Evans said:Of course my d7000 is producing shit like this all the time:

So I feel no need to go full frame.
MRORANGE said:what lens are you using? the stock one?
Exposure: 1/640s
Aperture: f/8
ISO: 100
Exposure: 1/60s
Aperture: f/5.6
ISO: 400
tokkun said:^^^ Aren't those images post-processed for higher sharpness, though? The moon picture definitely appears to have had a sharpening filter put on at some point based on the look of the lower edges.
Anyway, it sounds like you're not entirely sure whether the lack of sharpness you saw was due solely to the AF or if there was some other contributor. Isn't there an easy way to determine that by switching to manual focusing?
Don't worry, I'm sure your kid will turn out dashing and daring, courageous and caring anyway.MaizeRage25 said:Does that mean my wife cheated on me with a gummy bear?
