It would but I have just seen that the sync speed is 1/180th. Whilst it's not end of the world it's not always great spending more money and getting a worse sync speed than the 600d.

I think I really need to get my hands on the 5diii and the 6D and see which one really works for me. That and make sure I get these jobs!

Oh yeah, I forgot about the sync speed. Now I remember why I didn't like the 6D after I looked at it more closely. Good luck with whatever you choose!

Thanks ... Had nothing to do yesterday so I wasted it on bridge pix. Here's the 'other bridge' . I would have liked to have dropped the ISO and stopped down the lens some . Unfortunately the park closes at sundown , was being reminded of this by a park employee and 2 cops in a patrol car , so had to pack up and leave .

NBA Toronto Raptor - Aaron Gray (Centre) - 7 ft 0 in / 270 lbs

Wasn't happy with an earlier shot I posted of the Providence power plant building. Lighting was off and too many distracting elements in the composition. Went out this morning and shot this:


35mm lens. f/8. 1/125 sec. ISO 320.

This is from the Mexico portion of Epcot.

The Bridge by O.Taillon, on Flickr

First time shooting with a blind. This is only the useable shot in the bunch after 7 hours of shooting. Hope to do it again soon.

Gotta have a picture of the sphere that's in Epcot.

These two cuties were cudling each other in the snow.
