RE: Plane Spotting At Kavl (Asheville, NC)

Thanks. I saw that parking lot and was wondering. Depending on what is coming in, it might be a bit far away. But I'll take it.

Anything around the airport property?

RE: Adobe Lightroom V CS5 & Bridge

Of the folks that I know who use Lightroom, none use it exclusively. They all have some version of Photoshop for those moments when you need a feature, like Layers. Since you already have CS5, there's no problem. I would download the trial and check it out. The interface takes some getting used to.

RE: Do I Really Need A Dslr?

My advice is the same as Colin's. I say you are fine with a point-and-shoot until you develop your skills enough to see for yourself what you are missing. PaS cameras have come a long way in recent years, and produce very high quality results.

RE: Opinion On Canon 1.4 Extender

Regarding AF degradation, it's all about the light. You are taking the lens to a constant f/5.6 which is the minimum aperture required for AF operation.

RE: Technique- How Much Can I Control Graininess?

I know at least three photographers who shoot Canon and were disappointed with the noise level on the 50D compared with previous generations (two with the 40D and one with the 500D/T1i - same generation of sensor). Most gave it up for the previous generation camera, or moved forward to the latest (7...

RE: Rumor: Canon 100-400 Will Be Replaced Next Year

I am excited to see a new version of this lens, but if Canon's other lens revisions are any indicator, then I would not expect drastic changes with the refresh. In other words, no zoom or aperture changes.
