absolutely loving it....handles just like the 7D thankfully (similar control layout), but with better hi ISO performance and sharper images, was never truly happy with my Sigma 50mm on my 7d at F1.4 - 2.8....on the 5D its amazing.

Vanguard Class SLBM

got lucky and caught this coming out of its base at Faslane , heading for its patrol area somewhere in the Atlantic.
Unfortunately I had a 50mm on at the time and so its been cropped quite a bit.

Thanks Snow Patrol & Snips....kinda find myself agreeing with you too, sometimes I do have a tendency to think 'I have a large aperture lens...I WILL use it wide open !'
Thanks for the constructive comment tho :-)

Jimmy, it's a Sigma 50mm F1.4 ( Non ART lens)

well yes Raymond, I'm sure that would be good....but what I'd like right now is the fry up pictured with mini pot of beans ..Yumm! (and it would have been nice if I'd picked a matching fork and spoon for my shot ! )

Sig226 · 27 Jul 2014 at 12:57

Another Sunday Brekfast, I went for a full English this time.
I'll have to have a look on replicating T & S in Photoshop to try to give a similar look to Raymonds T & S lens.

Hi,
Not anything dramatic.....I did resort to AI Servo for shooting my brothers kids whizzing around the garden and it behaved impeccably (as you expect seeing as it has the same focus system as the 1DX (minus the dedicated processor ))
