DSLR without scenes mode

The 5D M III certainly does have Scene Modes/picture styles etc.


Canon single-digit cameras (prosumer and professional models) do not have pre-set scene selections (those are the multitude of little icons you see on point and shoots) on their mode dials. They do have programmable picture styles available through menu options that effect only the jpegs produced from Canon's DPP software. While editing your raw file in DPP you can see the effect the picture style will have on your jpeg.

I didn't think there were cameras made that didn't have scene modes.
My 5dmkll has scene modes, but they are ONLY accessible if you're shooting in Jpeg. They can't be used in RAW mode.
I'll bet every Canon has them. ;-)

The 5dmkii mode dial does not have any scene modes, 'night, snow, portrait, etc.' on it. You are thinking of picture styles selected via the menu. There is a difference.

Changing from PC laptop to Mac----PERHAPS

You can order your Mac the way you want it from Apple or an Apple Store.


My old PC is being replaced. I put together the specifications and priced it out. Having read so much on this site about the Mac I priced it out too. For $1000 more I could have an Apple that almost equals the performance of the PC. I think I would rather go lens shopping

JPEG~TIF Question

I'm not sure you really meant what you wrote.. If you did then Ansel Adams sure wasted a lot of time "waiting for the right moment", taking and calculating exposures from all those meter readings, figuring out the correct film developing times, burning or dodging the prints, and then spotting the final print.


You need to re-read the posts. I was saying I didn't believe an earlier poster meant to say that. That's certainly not my feelings.

I'm sure you don't mean this, but change just a couple of words and you said,

Jpeg is for people that like to get something productive done.

Okay. According to the Obama administration, "What difference does it make?"

canon 600mm lens
trebor480 wrote:
I am relatively new in to photography and just bought used canon EF 600mm 1:4 L IS USM lens (previous model) for my bird photography, hoping to improve my images. I use the 7D with it and I am not satisfied with my images. I think the problem is with the setting of the lens and camera. I don't know how to properly set these two equipment to get results. Is there anyone who can help me please? Is there any instruction how to do this?


If you are getting soft or slightly out of focus pictures you may need to do an auto focus micro adjustment for this lens/camera combination.

Global warming hurting the economy

Thank god that Jerryc41, and Texas Greek, world class Nobel prize winning scientists with years of experience in the study of climatology, can tell us all about how Climate Change and it's cause is still in doubt.

Oh....wait, no. They're just guys with opinions and no facts on the internet. The real world class Nobel prize winning scientists know that Climate Change, and its human cause, are real.


You can believe what ever you want. When the Yellowstone volcano goes off it won't make any difference what humans have done.

What is "Base ISO"?
Jolly Roger wrote:
Yesterday I watched a video tutorial by a professional photographer who explaining that his Canon 7D was set up with ISO 640 for the current shoot.
He went on to explain the 7D has a "Base ISO of 160" so reducing the ISO down to 100 will not improve the image quality. Also he increases his ISO in multiples of 160, hence his setting of 640.
Could anyone explain this "Base ISO" to me. Thanks


Lots of interesting answers. Searcher is right about "The lowest ISO setting to attain the highest image quality (low noise)". You can't depend on the camera manufactures to tell you the truth. Read noise is measurable. To see why your tutorial said to use iso 160 go to http://home.comcast.net/~NikonD70/Charts/RN_ADU.htm . Select the 7d from the camera choices on the right. You will see that iso 160 has the lowest read noise.

97% of climate scientists agree: anthropogenic climate change is real
When the Yellowstone volcano goes off it won't make any difference what mankind has done. Mother Nature rules.

What Am I Missing?

I'm just playing around with some of the features. Don't get much time to shot, we're on vacation, so I thought I'd play. What difference does my motivation have to do with my original question, which I was able to answer myself hours and many posts ago. But thanks anyway.


Just curious. I understand what you're saying about 'playing'. I like to do that too.

What Am I Missing?

I went out today to take some snow pictures. I wanted to experiment with under-exposing some shots to see how they would be affected.

The first shot I took was on automatic, at 1/160 and f22. I then put it on manual, and set the speed at 1/160, but could not set the f-stop to anything near f22. Why is that? I always thought that on manual, I had complete control of both shutter speed and aperture. Why wasn't I able to do that?


Why would you want to under-expose a snow shot?

Sony Alpha 7
After reading these posts, it seems that most people think that being able to use an adapter is a good thing. I suggest folks read the results of Roger's testing over at Lens Rental.
