Canon 5D2. Birth of controversy.

There is a lot of dicussion around on various forums regarding the Canon 5D2 and its new features. Some yell out for scandal why Canon put a video mode in a D-SLR and other complain about the “affordable” (but not confirmed) price of 2500 USD body only. The main argument found around is that “uncle Bob” could have the same camera as you at a wedding …

Well, I’d say that a camera doesn’t have to be expensive to give fantastic images. Having a top of the line camera doesn’t make you an outstanding photographer either. If you know how to pull the best out of your gear, if you master the light and composition, you can have kiler images even with apoint ans shoot. At least that’s what I think and believe.

Other than that, I still like to have the lastest gears because, because … because I like it. And if it could help me to improve my photography than why not? I used to mix still images and short video sequences in my slide show, and the brides like it, so now with full HD video function built in the Canon 5D2, why should I complain? In fact I don’t.

Happy accident

I’ve heard seen other photographers’ “happy accident” before and never had one.. untill this one.

My main light didn’t go off and I only got the back light on this shot. When it may not be suitable for an album, it is still a good photo to show off, I recon. So, here it is.
