Is that a typo? Is there an ISO 8000? On the 5Dmk2 it goes from 6400 to 12800 with no 1/3rd stops in between.
Congratulations though :)

You said in one of your previous posts that you use the 18-55 kit lens only at 18mm it seems what you really need is an ultra wide angle lens and Nikon has some very good ones.
Like the new 16-35 f4 VR which seems to be a very wonderful lens. http://www.dpreview.com/news/1002/10020902nikon16mm35mm.asp


Yeah, I need something wider, I like the 18-105, it seems like a better lens then the 18-55 VR, and the zoom range is also a lot more useful so I will keep it as my normal zoom :)
Next buy will most likely be the tokina 11-16, wide angle kicks ass :)

It is not a typo, I can do iso 8000 :P

Meh, it's not usable but I wish i have ISO 8000 :rolleyes: DAmnit i need a 5dII.


I think I can find the use for it :P
5dII seems to be a really awesome camera :)




One of my first impressions is how damned rapid this camera is! I just have to have somewhat correct settings, and when I take off the lens hood I can easily find focus and shoot in no time at all..
This is something that was impossible with d3000, I mostly used af-s with one point autofocus, which means I had to do workarounds for my compositions most of the time, now I get the composition
I want straight out of camera and I save a lot of time since I don't have to do any workarounds.
I think this camera can help me damned well getting further into photography.. I love it!!

The exposures on the last two seem to be off. The Noise is quite gross... First one is awesome though...

There it is again, my exposure problem :P
I should probably try to get a decent monitor :P

I put the most time into the first one, as that was the best base picture out of those :)

At that high of ISO setting when you get the exposure wrong and try to fix it in post usually it gets ugly. Pay more attention to your light meter when you are shooting. You should never fix exposure levels in post, that is something you need to get right when you are shooting.

Yeah, I was using aparture priority with light meter set to 0 in all those pictures, so difference in exposure is pretty much a mystery to me...
1 & 2 are shot under the exact same conditions... :P
