Canon 1Ds Mark III

Well, there’s not a whole lot new to report tonight.  I took a couple of shots out the back today and really like the RGB histogram.  Have you ever had a shot that didn’t look like it was clipped but ended up clipped in one of the channels?  Well, now you’ll know and can do something about it while you still have a chance.

I also played around some with exposure bracketing.  In addition to planning on doing HDR I also plan to try out Uwe Steinmueller’s High Speed HDR technique.  That’s where you do HDR hand held.  At 5 frames per second it’s a good bet the 1Ds Mark III will be fast enough to do hand held HDR (although it’s only half as fast as it’s little brother the 1D Mark III which Uwe shoots).  Well, it turns out that to do High Speed HDR you need to turn off High ISO Speed Noise Reduction.  It turns out it cuts the buffer to about 1/4 its size.

No photographs uploaded to the computer yet but we’re making some progress.  So,…

Stay tuned.
