Next lens will probably be a 70-200

But not for some time, unless my Christmas bonus is better than expected

to be perfectly honest though I'd only have any real need for the 24 - 70 from your line up anyway. But like you the 70 - 200 is my probable next lens as well. Might buy it in Jan / Feb time

If it wasn't for the weddings I probably wouldn't bother with the 24-70, I just love primes too much.

I have a lot to learn about codecs, and blah blah blah, but I made this

Serge holds a kind of 'epic' status within our household, hence the music!

I burst out laughing at that video

Nice panning but not the kind of pussy I was expecting.

With the amount I post photos of Helen, I'm not surprised!

How did you pan it though?

Rojin · 14 Dec 2010 at 23:07

lol, that cat is really not bothered at all is he?! I don't think I've even put my 7D in video mode yet.

I don't think I explained this very well on MSN.

I had the camera on a gorillapod (mini tripod thing), which I then stood on a bag, and held as steady as I could. Because the gorillapod screws onto the camera, I just started to unscrew the camera, which allowed it to pan left to right and stay relatively still

Phate · 14 Dec 2010 at 23:56

I'm loving it so far. It's damn sharp, amazingly smooth bokeh, and the field of view from 35mm on a full frame sensor is just perfect

Great video but I think the dog was framed....

Phate · 16 Dec 2010 at 18:46
