    Canon EOS-1D X review

    Hi Dave. I share your sentiment about full frame cameras coming up short on focal length. That's why I am so interested in the EOS-7D MK II. The only drawback of the current 7D for me is its mediocre high ISO performance. I love the 1.6X reach, even more than the 1.3X reach of the MK IV. I...

    I told the Acorn Woodpecker that its prospects were good and it said, " Baby, it's understood." Working for peanuts is all very fine, but I can show you a better time. http://MichaelDanielHo.com

    Canon EOS-1D X review

    Just returned from an European Travel Photo Shoot and have put the Canon EOS-1D X's high ISO performance to the test. I was impressed by its results.

    Freeze Frame

    I have taken delivery of the Canon EOS-1D X for over a month now. Have been rather busy after my photo shoot in Alaska and Canada last month. I finally took the camera out for some bird photography. The 12 fps is really sweet and I have even tried the 14 fps but I will stick with the 'lower'...

    Canon EOS-1D X review

    Ever since the introduction of the Canon EOS-1 series camera in 1989, I have made this body my main piece of equipment and have upgraded to almost every new model through the decades. I am not the type who craves the 'latest and greatest' gear but once in a while, a new camera introduction can...

    Comment by 'Guest' in media 'A Room With A View'

    I did drive along that road in Maui, Hawaii and talked to some of the residents along the way. They are rather nonchalant about the Humpbacks. It's almost like Sparrows in the backyard for some, they say. Don't you just love Maui? No wonder it's the Humpback capital of the Pacific Ocean in the...

    Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS II and EF 600mm f/4L IS II lenses

    The Canon EF 500mm f/4L IS and EF 600mm f/4L IS Series II lenses are slowly trickling into camera stores now and many photo enthusiasts are very excited. The new lenses are apparently a big improvement on their older cousins, which I own and love. It has been about 13 years since the Series I...

    "Anticipation, Anticipation is making me late, it's keeping me waiting " The wait goes on for me for the elusive Canon EOS-1D X camera. It is something I like to get a hold of before I go on my big annual Alaskan photo shoot in July but there is only a 50% chance the camera will arrive before...

There is a rumor circulating in Japan that Canon is thinking of releasing two new DSLRs some time in late 2012 or early 2013. The two cameras will be the Canon EOS-3D and the...

    Canon 1Ds MK III vs. Canon 5D comparison

    I have been using the Canon EOS 1 series bodies since it was first introduced in 1989 and have upgraded to all the new models ever since. When the Canon EOS 5D was first introduced in 2005, I bought it because I needed a backup camera with semi professional capabilities. The 5D impressed me a...

    Black Crowned Night Heron

    I see these Herons in my local botanical garden all the time. When they are hungry, they will even eat bread after people throw them in the water to feed the fish. Other times, they will try and snatch a smaller fish during the feeding frenzy. http://MichaleDanielHo.com
