Good choice George. I have been toying with the 6D myself after owning the 60D, but I think I will have a play about later in the year when I am in Hong Kong.
Let us know how you get on.

Very nice video :)
Shame that I am not living closer it would be great to be able to find like minded individuals to meet up and learn what you are showing in the vid. I have a 6D that I am still learning the ropes on this.
My wife is the main user of this for fashion shooting.
Ive looked at the Lee filters before but never put much thought as I needed a Polarising and UV filter to start with. Is this the one with the fisheye feature?
However I settled for a Tokina Macro lens instead. Price wise I think the lens worked out around £400. Will give the lens a try when I...
Ed I filmed the introduction of my rummys and the video size was HUGE!
Shame I couldnt catch all the fish and film myself releasing them again :(
Check the video sizes else you will have 200mb videos with only 8 seconds of footage (lol)
It is expensive but worth every penny :)
Im enjoying our new camera also. Clarissa took pics of the pelican when it was snowing. Got some good shots then too :)
For your info George. We looked at the 7D before deciding on the 60D. The price was around £875 for the body. I remember I shopped around and it was cheaper if I offered cash for around £850. It was a really good price but the reason why we chose the 60D is partially because the viewfinder is...
Blimey. I will set up a flickr account for my wife now so she can also showcase her photography skills :)
I'll leave my aquatic photography for here instead lol
Well wedding days can be stressful depending on size because the flowers need to be done last minute.
We did wedding flowers a few weeks ago and I was helping, but yes I can see it is stressful.
Ooo.... I'd kill for the 85mm f/1.2! Think I might upgrade the 50D before that though.
7 weddings is brilliant! I have 3 - including my boss's daughter - no pressure! :? I've also made it clear to the wife that any future earnings from weddings can go on camera gear! We'll see... :lol...
No problem. Heading to Singapore in May for some fish show out there. :P
I understand and heard a few stories about bad copy, but out of most of my friends they all agree the sigma is value for money when compared to canon, but the comment you make about pixel peeling is bang on.
I will try...
Some great shots. I tried the sigma 24-70 and found that the sharpness was a little better when reviewed in editing.
The lens was under £500, but because I wanted a macro lens I ended up getting a Tokina lens. Worked out a better bargain due to its guarentee.
Im heading abroad in a few months...
For that kind of price range you can look at this.

I have a tokina 105mm lens which I recently bought on my travels to Hong Kong. Its really fast and sharp. But I would say go and...
Its a great camera and I have the S90 when it first came out :(
After coming back from hong kong a few weeks back and playing with the S95 I am gutted I didnt wait lol.
However you have the money and you make the decisions. The only drawback for the S90 is that it doesnt (i think) do vids in...
For fish photography its best invest in a nice tripod dependant on your camera body.
I invested in a heavy duty tripod which I know will last me years if not forever haha.
I made calculations what lens's I might be using in the future and if I continue to use this body or upgrade to a 5d MkII...
Are you referring to the f2.8? I dont think there is one at f2.6?
There is 2 versions I think. One has IS and the other one doesnt. I remember prices around £550 for the IS version. I never had IS before on my lens's and as stated before Tokina were able to better the price if the Sigma lens I...
So which macro lens did you settle in the end?
I went Hong Kong last week and bought myself a 100mm macro lens. Tokina branded and I really noticed the difference between Tokina and sigma. I found the Tokina to be sharper and less saturated which is what I am after.
The sigma was a little...
Also I have to add. I have a Canon S90 and the camera is amazing to use. It has the features of an SLR all packed into a good sized camera.
This is my daily camera which I keep in my bag for any oppurtunities for photo moments.
Go try it out as well as a few different SLR's. What someone...
I would say go to Jessops and have a play. Set yourself a budget and also what you want the SLR to do for you.
If its for taking photos of fish and tanks then I guess many will suggest a macro lens for this.
Ive just bought myself a Canon 60D and a few lenses to play around with and cost me...
Lovely photos and vibrant colours. I long to find a poppy field around London (I jest)
But venturing towards the countryside this weekend so hoping for some good weather and some finds.
Ive been looking at the Tamron 90mm macro f2.8.
I know LondonDragon has this and Im hoping to borrow it from him to use on my own camera before making my mind up to buy one or not.
Whats your budget and which model do you have?
Thats an amazing shot!
So surreal almost.
Im after a nice macro lens myself as I have a Canon 400D but I opted for a long lens of 18-200mm.
Im now on the prowl for something smaller :)
Since a kid Ive always wanted one.
The night I was going to view the car again to possibly buy someone snapped it up :(
I had to settle for an Audi S3 in the end :)
