The Big Cheese 30th of June 2006 (Fri), 09:13 Hi everyone My 5D arrived this morning but I haven't had much of a chance to use it yet (except for a quick check and firing off 60 or so frames checking settings). What I'd like to know is if anyone has any tips or tricks when using the 5D that I don't have to find out the long way (ok I'm impatient :rolleyes:) I was shooting with evaulative metering this morning without over/under exposing and I noticed some highlights were totally blown out, so it appears to be like the 20D in that respect and I may be underexposing quite a lot...

Does anyone have any tips, comments or suggestions? (especially concerning wedding and portrait photography - I have a couple of weddings coming up soon, as a guest not a pro!) Thanks! Westernminnguy 30th of June 2006 (Fri), 16:54 hmmmm.....not sure why no one is replying. I found a lot of useful info in the handbook that comes with the camera. Good luck. Canon 5D Mark II.
