Re: Prop blur, what are your thoughts.

I shot a D7100 a few years ago & Exposure Compensation was available in Shutter Priority. I used it all the time when trying Nikon but stuck with my Canon gear due to better (and much more expensive) L series lenses. Re read your manual. In Canon about the only mode EC doesn't work in is full Au...

Re: Aero 150 Airshow - April 30 - Gatineau, Quebec

For anyone interested my event album is on line now here. All flying photos shot either a Canon 7D2 or 1D4 sharing a Sigma 150-600 C or Canon 28-300 L IS. Everything was shot in RAW & processed in CS6 & Camera RAW.

Re: 2017 Patrouille de France Flyovers

Cancelled today due to the weather & they announced they'd try again tomorrow which just might be possible. The current weather is not good & we have lots of flooding in the area but it may let up for a while tomorrow in the late morning.
