[PICS] B&W meets the 5D
http://www.jlkramer.net/Pictures/BandW5D.htm
I have to admit I'm underwhelmed, doesn't shoot like the 20D at all. One more (of many) process to learn. :-( Jim |

At 3200 ISO I'm amazed at the low noise it produces. Nice work with light. Very dramatic. Helen |

Helen- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - At 3200 underexposed by a stop the single toned areas had very obvious lines running horizontally along the frame (the long ways.) It was much more obvious than the 20D's high ISO issues. Go back to color and it blows the 20D away. Thus my question remains why? All in all it's a great camera for static or single shots; the AI servo auto focus is horrid for more than one shot. It can't seem to reacquire the target between frames. :-( It's a landscape camera not a machine gun. It already feels better in my hand, it's a bigger body. :-) Thanks for your comments. Jim |

Jim- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Even with film, shooting at such a high ISO will result in grain. Why it's shown more on black and white than color......I'm not sure myself. Just a thought, but perhaps the grain is more unnoticeable in color? I've done a lot of reading on b&w with digital cameras and I understand that shooting in RAW gives one more opportunities for post- processing. I found a couple of these websites interesting. One is converting color to b&w. I'm certain you have already seen them, but in case you haven't, here they a http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Color2BW/ http://www.prime-junta.net/pont/How_...te.html?page=2 When I shoot b&w film I always use a yellow filter. Sometimes red. It was annoying that I'd lose the light ie: shutter speed. Shooting digital b&w has the option for incamera filters....which is wonderful. Helen |
