Mark Baigent Posted February 4, 2014 Author Share Posted February 4, 2014 Hi Lynn Pretty much my conclusion from blundering around the world of cameras recently. Very nice black and white work on your website. ATB Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Quist Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I shoot primarily with a Canon 5DM2 and five or six months ago purchased the NEX 6 to carry in my backpack/purse, and to use where the larger Canon attracts too much attention. Although I'm happy enough with the NEX 6 images under standard lighting conditions, I have not been able to post high ISO/available light images taken with the NEX 6, just too much noise. It's good enough for stock images but I still prefer the Canon for my serious photography. I have a 200mm zoom and a 50mm prime for the Canon but I use my 24-105mm zoom most of the time. I do have a Canon-brand lens hood on it but I don't have serious issues with vignetting and I can't say that I've noticed much CA either. If I had the money I'd love to upgrade to the 5DM3 or possibly the Nikon D800. Hi Lynn, I had the same problem with the hood, but the setting: Peripheral Illumination Correction - pretty much solved this. If you are not familiar with this, I have an old blog entry about the feature: http://quist-media.blogspot.dk/2011/07/peripheral-illumination-correction-on.html I pretty much agree with you - and I am using the same equipment... PS Sorry, I now see that you say "you don't have serious issues with vignetting. So my post is more or less irrelevant then, but I will leave it...

Lynn Palmer Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Thank you Mark, I "grew up" shooting B&W with a Nikon F2 Photomic so I have an enduring love for it. My website is only a month old so your visit should be a very large blip on Google Analytics. I can't wait to see the stats tomorrow. Niels, its interesting information that I'm sure someone might be able to use. So far I exclusively use the lens correction in CS6 does the Canon software offer any advantages? I only mentioned the lens hood because an after market lens hood that isn't properly manufactured could cause corner vignetting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
