Hi, I'm new to the group - thanks for accepting me in! I want to install one of the hacks available to the eos300d, but I'm not quite sure which one to choose:...
Being able to use a flash above 1/200th is a function of the particular flash's capabilities, which must have FP (focal-plane) mode, that indicates the flash...
Hi, I am in the process of modifying my 300D to accept old Minolta manual focus lenses by replacing the EF flange with a specially made MD flange. Since the...
I'm sorry, but I cannot help you with this. But seeing what you are doing which is in line with what I intend to do I have the following question: Can anyone...
As far as I know, the specification does not exist outside of Canon. All 3rd party lens makers obtained the info through reverse engineering and this is why...
Thanks for the Canon website adress. The picture contains enough information for me to know now not to try anything with the signal pins. The idea I am...
To adapt FD mount lenses is a bigger challenge mechanically. I think the FD flange-to-film distance is 42mm vs 44mm of the EF. You have to reduce by 2mm with...
i'm interested in doing some long-duration capturing that will generate thousands of frames. think security cam only much higher quality. i already have a 5d...
Isn't the new four thirds camera from Panasonic "shutterless" - with a removable lens too. Bruce From: BabaG Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2009 12:43 AM To:...
thanks bruce. interesting. have not tested a panasonic but i have tested my canon 5d against a nikon d200 and found that the digic sensor of the canon was...
thanks for the tip, bruce. interesting. one thing, though. i haven't done any testing with a panasonic, but the tests i did with a nikon d200 vs my canon 5d...
The article you mentioned in your original post had the lens/shutter/AND sensor assembly removed. Even if you could remove just the lens and shutter, I do not...
i'm photograhing into a projector. if removing the lens and shutter still allows the sensor to send images to the card or a computer (i'm using the eos utility...
i'm just starting to get a grasp on the whole shutter/shutterless idea. does anyone know if the mirror mechanism on the 5d is separate from a shutter...
The 5d has a mirror lockup function, so you press the shutter button once to flip up the mirror, then you can wait as long as you want before pressing the...
thanks ron. question: can you take more than one picture with the mirror locked up? or does it close down after one image (or a bracket)? i'd be looking to...
I really don't like this method of mirror lock up. It can be used only with remote release. If you use button on the camera, you'll shake it anyway when ...
The 5D, with drive set to timer and mirror lock set to enable will raise the mirror when you press the shutter release, wait 2 seconds, and then expose the...
Drive set to timer. Yes. Yet another pain in the butt. Have to wait 30 seconds. I wander why they did it this way? Doesn't sound too practical to me. ...
steve and jesse, so will it only shoot one shot with the mirror up? or can i shoot as many as i want before it comes back down? thanks, BabaG ... From: Steve...
Actually with digital camera it doesn't really matter. You can take as many pictures as you want and then combine them in the image processing program. It's...
i'm unclear on how the mirror lock up function works. once locked up, does it come back down after i take one shot, or can i take multiple separate frames...
