Hi Ole,

Why would you recommend the 5DII for landscape and portrait?

Thanks

Hi Simen

The 7D is not a full frame camera but a 1,6 crop factor camera.
7D is in my opinion a good upgrade from 450D for action. 5D II is a good choice for landscape and portrait.

Hello Jeannette

Difficult question!
I prefer the 5D II for landscapes and portraits, but the 7D for action. So, I have decided to use both cameras on different subjects. Then you also don´t need to change lenses so often. I also normally use the 1DS Mark III camera as a all-round camera.

Hello Jeannette

I hope the 1D IV will be a good compromise. I have decided to NOT test more Beta 1D Mark IV cameras since I can´t do any serious tests with it. The production models will be available just before Christmas..

Hi Erich

It works great with 1.4 and 300/2.8. I have not tried with 500/4 and 1.4.
For high speed action I NEVER use tele extender because it will slow down your AF.

Best regard
Ole Jørgen

I am very interested in hearing your opinion on the 1D Mark IV, I really wanted a full frame camera – but with speed. I have come to the conclusion that in order to get very sharp images you really need a full frame camera and good lenses. What do you think would the Mark IV be a good compromise?
