Hello, I reread my post and to clarify what I said about the ISO, this is exactly correct as stated: Is the ISO that much better on the MKIII?
Yes. What I can shoot at ISO 1000 on the MKIII is about the same as ISO400 on the 7D
I agree with Bobby, and Mark, yes, I just did have my MKIII serviced [thats when I bought the 7D, ] Canon was kind enough to fix it for free even though it was ooW.
Just to clarify the flash photo, the camera was brand new and I had not worked with it at all nor did I have the need or time for perfection. But I assure you, I shot next to about 7 point and shoots, and believe me, in that poor light they all sucked. Thats where I noticed the power this little flash had compared to my 40D, and how much better it was than a point and shoot. I had it cranked up pretty bright.
Hi Breitling65, yes practice doesn\'t make a fence fatter, lolol. I think I\'ve had plenty of practice. Thats where experience comes in to view, and believe me, I know what I am talking about. But yes, I agree, the center point needs to be centered accurately.And it does help guarentee a better focus. I found the added assist points to the right and left to centerpoint on the MKIII was helpful also, especially for tracking.
And yes, I also agree, the MKIII is the superior camera which is why I decided to use it on my 500mm, and the 7D on the 300mm, which give me more reach. And yes, I may get the MKIV some day. I think the 7D is a great back up camera. My 40D was not.
The noisy prints may be fine without noise reduction. I\'m just picky. ;~), But yes, I know it would print ok. I\'ve been a little lazy about noise reduction because I know prints do fine with a little noise.
Thnx everyone for your comments.
