05Sep Yongnuo YN-568EX II TTL Master flash with high speed sync
My current flash lineup consists of one Canon 580ex II, a Nissin Di866 MK II, and two Yongnuo YN565EX. Last night I was working on some product shots and my Nissin Di866 stopped firing, i’ve only been using it a year so it doesn’t give me a lot of faith in the quality of their products. […]
03Sep Tamrac Rally 6 3446 camera bag Review
I’ve been on the pre-order list for the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema camera since the day I got my hands on it at NAB. But after multiple delays and a sketchy list of features, I canceled my order, got my $1000 refund, and picked up a Canon 6d. I’ve had a love hate relationship with the […]
31Aug Old Canon lenses look great with in camera lens correction
This old Canon 17-35mm f2.8 L lens used to be number 1 back in the late 90’s but it was eventually overtaken by the Canon 16-35mm which in turn was replaced by the Canon 16-35mm f2.8 MK II. Even though it’s an old lens, it doesn’t mean it’s ready for the scrap pile. Many of the problems that […]
30Aug Get Canon DPP and EOS utility without a disc
In the past if you bought a used Canon camera that was missing the Canon utility disc or you lost the EOS utility disc that came with your camera you were pretty much out of luck. You could visit Canon’s site and under downloads you’d find upgrades to the utility software but you couldn’t actually […]
28Aug Canon 50mm f1.4 or Canon 50mm f1.2?
The Canon 50mm f1.2 (above right) is a beautiful (and massive) piece of glass. Weighing in at about 1.3 pounds (590 g), this monster of a prime is a nice piece of kit. The 50 f1.2 is fully weather sealed with a solid metal housing and sports the smooth action of a large focus ring. It’s 8-blade circular […]

20Jun Low price DIY Mōvi camera stabilizer alternative
By now most people have seen the Mōvi camera stabilizer. This handheld 3-axis digital stabilized camera gimbal provides very smooth steady cam style shots in a very compact package. The price of $15,000 might not seem to bad if you’ve had too invest in a high end Steadicam vests and sled, but it’s out of […]
12Jun Native raw support for the Canon 6d and more added to Windows 7 & 8
If you’ve been following the site for awhile you might remember this post from last year about Microsoft adding native raw support. Unfortunately the codec pack doesn’t get updated very often so it takes quite awhile for new cameras to be added to the support list. This time Microsoft has dropped in support for the Canon 6d, and […]
07Jun Canon 6d New for $1,499.95
At a price of $1499.95 new on ebay with free shipping, the Canon 6d is a hell of a bargain. That price puts a new 6d at about the same spot as a used 5d mark II body. But unlike the 5dmkII you get a better auto focus system, wifi features, and better low light […]

If you are in the market for a full frame Canon body, the Canon 6d is a pretty decent option. At $1650, it’s a great option. You get slightly better low light performance than the 5d mark III, built in wifi, and a few other interesting features. You can find out more about how it […]
