FAB 5D2 CAPTURES MALE GIVING BIRTH!
Hey Dudley, I thought of you when I was shooting some video the other
day. Once you start recording you are sort of "working in the dark" at least when it comes to focusing. It gave me an appreciation for the work that you must do to get your pics. Actually, Bret, what you are doing is a lot tougher than what I do. While I do tend to use basic hyperfocal techniques to get my subject in the image area, I don't have to worry about keeping anything in focus; I let the AF system take care of that. Shooting low DOF video clips without being able to access an AF system is completely different, and a hell-of-a-lot more difficult... Good Luck, Dudley |

The new Canon has face detection technology which is pretty neat, but it doesn't work so well on cats or fishes. Maybe they'll add those options in the first firmware upgrade which should be due out soon. What about the auto-DOF mode? It's supposed to keep anything within the AF points in focus (if possible). I've played with it a bit on my wife's Rebel XT (and of course I'll be using it on my XSi), and it seems to do a fairly good job... Take Care, Dudley |
