That is one hell of a modern gothic church. Great shots by the way.

Originally posted by EvilBoris View PostTouch Focus on the app, not on the camera itself. I think the 650D had a touch panel and swivel screen on it, I'd quite like those on this camera TBH, I was trying to take a picture over a fence and the live view screen was impossible to see at an angle
Ive recently started taking pictures of birds in the garden for a new website i did a while ago and that feature would be awesome, set the camera up next/near the feeders and sit indoors not disturbing them. I have a remote for this purpose but without being able to refocus its useless for birds as there just too quick.Last edited by fishbowlhead; 06-04-2013, 10:23.

I still think one of best functions of the wifi is the ability to view/uploads images to the phone. I hope Canon release a tablet optimised version of the app.
Btw, looks a great place Boris - it's one of the places I need to visit some day (along with the fjords in Norway)Last edited by Ginger Tosser; 06-04-2013, 10:42.

My plan is similar, but trying to get really close with either my wide angle or pick out detail with my macro.

Thanks for confirming ginger, just watched teh digitalrev review and the phone feature was awesome, worked really well.
Don't forget to get out at night Boris, theres some great colours to be had especially the opera house, which changes colour randomly at night. There was also a wall downtown that was playing a movie on it via a projector which would look good, though my little x10 wasn't up to decent night stuff so i missed out on most of it.
Was pretty cool watching a silent movie in the street with a chick, just sat on the curb with some popcorn and random people started joining us, good times.Last edited by fishbowlhead; 06-04-2013, 12:30.

Actually used the GPS function today, quite handy as I was in an area with very little signage - but nice trees and a ploughed field! Battery didn't drain as most of the reviews said it would (was on 3 bars, after 300 shots - last 50 or so with GPS enabled - then synced to mac for downloading images - it finally dropped to 2 bars)

Went out and about yesterday didn't get anything fantastic though, it was snowing which made the sky very white and hard to expose correctly

I did get this shot, which isn't a a decent photo, but looks cool. It's a geysir just starting to blow

The lens stabilisation must be pretty good on the new glass I got, I took this one handheld

No, it's always one of those things that I meant to pick up but never get around to.
I tend to just underexpose the image a little and deal with it in post processing, the sensor is so good I don't really get much in the way of noise.

It's just that white skies are a bit plain and boring.
