Maiden Hair 5D *

Melbourne

A second shot of the same fern using the 5D, no sharpening or other PP
except for sizing and framing to fit size limit.
I don't know how PBase picked up the info about exposure and 35mm equivalent but that is not correct? 100mm is 100mm with the 5D???

Canon EOS 5D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro
0.5s f/11.0 at 100.0mm (35mm equivalent: 525mm) iso 800 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I posted a message about the exif on a pbase forum:http://forum.pbase.com/viewtopic.php?t=23657

That's weird about the 35mm equivalent. In my opinion, no camera should have the focal length converted to a 35mm equivalent. At the very least, if it is a pbase feature, it should have a toggle. I for one think that referring to 35mm equivalents is a crutch that does more harm than good.

Another try, a little closer to the 20D shot but still not the same. The DOF is significantly shallower with the FF sensor. ~ Bob

Thanks Victor, yes I do agree, the RHS foliage does distract, I will try another shot as close to the other one to compare. ~ Regards Bob.

I think the other shot is the better one, and it has nothing to do with the camera. It's the backgound. Your composition is different here -- the background is too distracting, competing with your subject. -- Victor
