I just batch processed close to 400 files from a photo shoot at a musical dress rehearsal. Later Canon sensors (1DX III and the later mirrorless sensors) are far more processing intensive but Canon has yet to provide a version of DPP that properly u...
Although I shoot primarily sports using Canon 1 series DSLR bodies, I travel quite a bit and for short trips via air a Canon M6 II with its 18-150 is my camera setup of choice. With the responsiveness of 1 series bodies, phone cameras drive me crazy...
I was reminded tonight while shooting a HS soccer match that it is often easy to complain about camera specifications, control layout, menu design, etc. but compared to the true pain our subjects often suffer we have a VERY easy life as photographers...
I have shot thousands of soccer match photos over the years but none capture the sheer joy of the beautiful game better than this player's happiness and exuberance! Captured with a Canon 1DX III and EF 200-400 extender @ 488mm, 1/1250, f5.6, ISO 500...

John,
I shoot in all sorts of varying lighting conditions with a variety of mixed color temperatures while shooting sports so most of the files require a lot of post processing. And each image is going to have an individual crop and because of "unif...
James,
The SSDs used for processing the input and output file are on what HP calls "Z drives" and these are a pair of SSDs directly on the processor bus giving the fastest throughput possible. I also have two other 1 gig SS drives and two 8 terabyte...
You do have to be in Live view mode to use face/head/eye tracking but it allows full selection of the various cases for AF servo mode. I suspect somewhere in your setup, you have restricted available AF methods in Live View which is preventing servo...
