Thanks, I decided to pass on the deal. My pro 100 works fine for me now

Thanks everyone. Think I will just pass on this and stick with the 100 for now. You helped me make the decision

I have a chance to purchase a Canon Pro 10 and 2 packs of 13x19 Canon paper for $350. Printer has been used once. Is this a good deal. I have the Pro 100.

Would you share how you did this? It’s cool.

I am ready to buy a new iPhone also. I have begun my research. Will someone share the difference between the iPhone 12 and 12 Max?

I find foggy photos difficult. Will you share your camera settings?

Santa is bringing me a new Canon R6. It comes with a 24-105 mm f/4-7.1 lens. Has anyone had any experience with this lens and camera. One person told me the lens wasn’t that good another said it was a good lens. I have several L lens and Santa also will bring an adapter so I can use them.

Thanks and Happy Holidays

Clara, take a look at this depth of field calculator. I plugged in 25 feet distance, though I'm terrible at estimating other people's photos this way

But, at 25 feet, you have twice the depth of field if using f/5.6 rather than f/2.8

You have some very expensive gear; controlled tests and comparison of your results will be worth your efforts!


Checking it now, thanks

You can put it into Canon DPP and see exactly where the focus point was. I did not do that, but it seems clear that the focus is on the quartz crystals in the rocks at the bird's "feet" just from enlarging the image to DDL.
f6.3 would probably have done the trick, and I expect that the "eye focus" mode /method would have got you the results you were looking for. Using a fixed aperture for widlife seems to be popular, with appropriate speed and leaving the camera to automatically adjust the ISO, but always try to focus on the eye nearest to you like in any portrait. I am sure you will get lots of feedback. Good luck, stay well and keep on shooting.

Always focus on the eye 👁 and shoot a short burst. Then pick the best eye for keeper. I never shoot wild life <1/1000 and faster is usually better. I also shoot wide open, let ISO auto adjust and run speed up for acceptable ISO if required by too much light. I also use BBF. Hope this helps and feel free to ask questions.


Thank you

Use single point AF & put the focus point right on the eye. The fast SS has nothing to do with your out of focus situation. This is not a case of motion blur.


If I do this, will the body be out of focus?

It appears that your camera focused on the green leaves behind the heron's head.

(I see Fred beat me by 10 seconds )


Yes he was fast. But very helpful to have your opinion too. Thanks

F2.5 means shallow depth of field. Also, the focus seems to be on the twigs behind the head, a difficult autofocus shot.
Yes, f/8 or 10 would have increased DOF.


Thanks So if I had focused on his head at 2.8 the leaves would have been out focus instead?
