Camera for Professional Use: Nikon D7000 vs Canon 7D

The wetware operating the camera is what counts the most.

Well, "sort of."

Notice the blown-out, overexposed exposures, due to color-blind light metering and sickly Canon skin rendition.

***************
Another photographer,at the same photo opportunity, using another brand and model of camera: the noise profile makes it look "older". Quite possibly a digital P&S. Notice the entirely different skin rendition and different, "smarter" light metering.

Notice that in this second exposure, the camera has picked up another shooter's off-camera flash, as you can see on her face and the edge of the doorway that is open.

After two years I have only one question - Derrel - just how many Canon Voodoo dolls do you get through a week?

I don't know. But, as a Canon OWNER AND USER,which I am, but one with only a little over $10,000 in Canon gear, I recognize how a Canon d-slr can easily blow a fast-breaking photojournalism or action/outdoors photo opportunity because of Canon's color-blind light metering....and I recognize it from the way it has let me down over the years...

Look at the pics above...color-blind metering from a Canon...horribly blown-out skin tones....

It should be a crime shoot substandard pics of such legs

I call BS, the FACE in the first photos look perfect, its just her nasty legs that are over exposed LOL.
And with the second photos 'using another brand and model of camera', they look really noisy in comparison. You sure the 2nd wasnt a canon shooter aswell? XD

Edit: Also look at the background of the ugly woman, one has way more skin-tone-ish color in the background, a nice neutral color, not a huge dynamic range if you will. If you checkout the first photos, you got these white ass legs, with a black ass background.

3 reasons for my first 'ignore.'

Just tell them that white lenses aren't good for a ninja.





Then disappear and go get the shot.
