sorri for the confusion... i ommited the "2".. cuz too lazy to type it :bsmilie:
basically, I wan fast AF and want to prevent the below
basically, the AF jumped to focus on the car when it swing into the center AF point.
With "ring of fire" I tink the AF should be able to maintain track on the face instead.
i'm off!! see u guys later... if i'm not too sleepy... ;p
Good choice.CYRN said:
But of course only you yourself could know what type of body you want, judging on what stuff you shoot.The 5D is still more or less a consumer-styled body, so I don't really see the justification for paying > $5k for it. The AF is unproven yet, , only 3fps, seems the shutter lag is worse than even 20D's, flash sync of only 1/200 (also slower than 20D). Also have to fork out extra for the batt grip. IMO, not worth it, considering what u pay for it. Seems the bulk of the price goes into the full-frame sensor. :think:
The 1-series body would last u a long long time, prolly 5 years or even more if u take good care of it. I still think its more worthy to upgrade to it rather than 20D, in the long run. Speaking from my own POV, as a 10D owner.

Listen to the PRO :sticktong :sticktong BBB!@
Nice shot. Thats the big problem with consumer level cams when it comes to servo tracking...10D one simply CMI. I have tried shooting birds in flight before, boy, they are freaking fast! And much smaller subjects, moving erratically. My keeper rate is only abt 20-30%, most of the frames OOF or soft/blur.CYRN said:sorri for the confusion... i ommited the "2".. cuz too lazy to type it :bsmilie:

Felt like throwing the thing into the sea at that time. :angry: Lost a lot of possible keepers.Absolutely. Thats the main reason for buying 1 series. The "ring of fire" AF rocks.

See how loh... if really tight on budget I might go for 20D as interim solution, cuz I'm still not getting viable returns for my photography still..
*hopes* later toto strike top prize ;p ;p
