My initial tests revealed it might be with this lens, the Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM, might have been causing the error. Yet, I still have to do more rigid tests, as when I attached back this lens after rubbing off—
I don’t think I could let it pass when I knew that former President Cory Aquino’s funeral march will pass by near my place. So I grabbed my camera and tried my best to document the event despite the heavy rains. However,—

Well, at least, that’s the impression that struck me. Last year, there were numerous models available for shoot at the same time, this year-so far-only the Canon booth have one. Nevertheless, here are some photos I took:

There are only two lines of products in the Canon EOS series that have a full frame sensor. That is the Canon EOS 5D and the 1Ds series. Now, Canon is introducing the latest in the 1Ds series, the Mark III, bragging a 21 megapixel image resolution. This 1Ds Mark III, though, is not as fast (5fps) as its counterpart in the 1.3x crop body, 1D Mark III (10fps). Nevertheless, this is a full frame body we’re talking about.

This represents my lens collection (Click on the picture to enlarge). This is, of course, exclusive of the lens I used to take this particular picture, the EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS USM.
So far we have the following:
- Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM
- Canon EF 85mm f/1.8 USM
- Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM
- Canon EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS USM
Focal Range Coverage
These lenses cover a focal range from 17mm to 300mm in a 1.6 crop body. In a full-frame body, this translates to an equivalent 27mm to 480mm. Just enough (I guess) for my needs.
I got this one from a Digital Photographer Philippines forum topic. I just thought anyone might be interested.
Should I had rather put together my arsenal with this sale, I should have saved 27% from my purchases (at PhP 12.50 per 1 QAR), and that is on top of my bringing home the extra EF 50mm f/1.8 II USM.
Hmmmm, pity me!

First of all I would like to greet all my avid readers a Happy New Year, a Happy 2007!
My first prime lens, the EF 85mm f/1.8 USM lens, according to reviews produces sharp pictures and performs well in low light conditions. The AF is fast and produces beautiful bokeh when shot as wide as f1.8.
Let’s see some samples of the pictures I took:

Learning the basics of photography and the limitations of this point-and-shoot camera, I realized that should I have a more sophisticated camera, I can at least duplicate those spectacular photos in photography books, magazines, brochures, newspapers, internet, etc., by professionals. I can even have my own personal collection (Now, what do you think of that? LOL).
My interest even grew deeper when I learned photoshop. I was wondering–
