| | | Canon 30D RAW Hi all
I got the 30D on Friday, disappointed to find no Camera RAW support in PhotoShop CS2. The following link takes you to a work around that works fine. http://akhater.wordpress.com/2006/03...canon-30d-raw/
I wanted a second body to save changing lenses to much in the field. I found that the 30D was about the same price as the 20d so went for that one. I will post some photos next week. I got the 30D from RGB tech for £ 829.99

| | | Re: Canon 30D RAW I saw the 30D in Leicester today for 700. There is a digital weekend at one of Leicesters main stores this weekend. The 20D was 600. This was for body only though.
Quite fancied the 5 actually. 12M pixels. Thats one bad boy camera but I never use my 350 enough anyway. Good bargains though

I am not as happy as I was a short time ago.

| | | Re: Canon 30D RAW I thought that was a pretty keen price. I was looking for a good lens today. What do you think to the Sigma 70-300mm f4-5.6 APO MACRO?

| | | Re: Canon 30D RAW Digital photo reviews it this issue - but it came second to the Tamron ld 70-300, Boddie - and that's less than a ton! |

The macro ratio is 2:1 so it still gives a reasonably close image, a small word of caution though, the slightly larger f-stop means that it is not possible to hand hold it whilst taking macro shots unless the subject is bathed in bright sunlight.
Aside from this its a first class bit of gear, extremely well built and nice to use.
Kind of sad really, with me buying an EOS 20D it means that this nikon fit lens is now no longer in use unless I go back to using the F80 35mm slr, and to be honest thats not going to happen is it |

| | | Re: Canon 30D RAW What about the Tamron 28-300 XR Di? I was looking at that lens also.
Cheers
