Night Photography : Canon 5D With EF17-35mm F2.8L Lens

Getting out and doing a spot of night photography can often be very rewarding and is something I do enjoy given half the chance to do it. This collection of photos were taken in Beverley in Hengate Gardens. There was a lot of ambient light about, a lamppost and the flood lights on the monument were quite useful. For this night photography project I used a Hahnel HRC 280 Remote Shutter Release, a Canon EOS 5D Mark II and nice wide lens, the EF17-35mm F2.8L USM and a tripod! This image has not go through Photoshop, it was taken in RAW and then converted using the Cannon software. The white... more»

LENSBABY : Creative Shooting With The Lensbaby 2

Creative photography is certainly a lot easier with a Lensbaby attached to the camera as I found out after taking delivery of a Lensbaby 2. Although it is a lens, I think the Lensbaby is more of an accessories, something that is small and easy to carry around that will give any photographer a different type of shot. I purchased my Lensbaby 2 from MPB Photographic this week. I have already discussed the benefits of buying used gear in the article Used Canon Equipment: Buying Used Over New so when this showed up I just had to have it. I plan to use the Lensbabay 2 to create images in camera... more»

Canon EF 2x II Extender : Sports Photography, Shooting Cricket

This weekend I have a lot more success shooting cricket with a Canon EF 2x II Extender attached to Canon EF400mm F2.8L USM lens. For a while now I have been really struggling to get any sort of half-decent image with a Canon EF 2x II Extender, especially when trying to use manual exposure. Last weekend, I found a sort of fix where I used P Mode to calculate the required exposure and then just changed the aperture. I documented these findings in the article Canon EF 2x II Extender: More Practice Leads To Better Results. This weekend I mixed things up again. The light was good, so I used a d... more»

Going Back to a Shorter Lens For Shooting Sport

Given some back pain I chose to work with shorter lens while shooting the local sport a Canon 70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM. Mainly I have been using a Canon EF400mm F2.8L USM lens in recent times so I gave up a lot of reach. To try and get some distance back I used a 1.4x converter for one of the games. There were some advantages to using a shorter lens, I got the ability to zoom back as opposed to working at fixed focal lengths. The first image is from a football match using the extender, the player was about 18 yards away, the settings used are listed below; Set Up For Shorter Lens... more»

Used Canon Equipment : Buying Used Over New

When I purchased my first camera, I went for a new one though over time, I have started to purchased used canon equipment instead. I have found many different web sites that sell used Canon equipment. MPB Photographic, The London Camera Exchange and of course Ebay all sell used Canon equipment. There are lots of benefits to buying used photographic equipment. The cost is of course a lot cheaper, and you can often get a better camera or lens for the budget you have to spend. A while back, I was trying to source a lens, a Canon EF300mm f2.8L and finally found one that was second... more»

Yongnuo YN 622C E-TTL Wireless Flash Trigger Review

Yongnuo YN 622C is one of the newest products from Yongnuo that allows you to take your Speedlite off the camera while giving the photographer plenty of control through the camera’s menu. Having looked into various systems for off camera flash I settled with the Yongnuo YN 622C as it seemed to offer everything I wanted at a very reasonable price. Out of the box, I hooked up the Yongnuo YN 622C system to a Canon 430 EX II Speedlite and a Canon EOS 1D Mark IV and fired off a few shots and everything worked out just fine. The Yongnuo YN 622C worked seamlessly with the Canon menu... more»

Shooting Professional Boxing With a Sigma 30mm f1.4

Boxing remains one of the sports I really enjoy photographing and tend to use my Sigma 30mm f1.4 EX DC HSM and also a Canon EF 85mm f1.8 USM The Sigma 30mm f1.4 provides me quite a wide view of the action while the Canon EF 85mm f1.8 USM allows me to get closer tighter shots of the fighters in the ring. Shooting with these two prime lenses, there are obvious issues, I cannot zoom and should the fighter’s mover to the other side of the ring the then Sigma 30mm f1.4 does not offer the reach, while same is true when using Canon EF 85mm f1.8 USM when the boxers move closer to you. This is a... more»
