Hi - I have the 5D Mk III and I'm confounded by one thing the camera does that I can't seem to prevent. No matter what setting I try in M mode, if I manually open or close my lens aperture, my LCD preview compensates to give me some kind of neutral e...
HI - 5D newb here. I'm shooting in RAW and I want to confirm/determine what my actual custom white balance temperature is set to on my 5D MK III when I take a sample with my light disc and use it to customize white balance. The thing is, I have photo...
Thanks Robert - that is for the overall LCD brightness, rather than the exposure. I did find that setting, but it wasn't what I was after. The update is that Phill found it. It's Exposure Simulation, which I think I'd seen information about, but inco...
Jumping beans that was it! Phill I appreciate you looking in a manual for a camera you don't own, to help a newb out! I feel bad that I didn't find this, but take some solace from the page number... This is a lesson in trying the manual before trying...
Hi Phill - yeah precisely. And the 5D Mk III, in M mode, isn't doing what your T3i is. Or rather, it does appear to show a "fixed" adjustment if I change shutter speed or even if I radically change ISO. But if I manually move my lens aperture, it "fi...
Well I agree that appears to be their design intent - I don't agree that it should be the case that a "preview" should look completely different from the actual result. I'm not using it as a light meter. I'm using it as a preview approximation. And i...
Hi Guys, Thanks for the time! Yes I'm actually using some Zeiss zf primes with de-clicked apertures, so I'm manually stopping down. But...what I'm saying is - my LCD get's darker momentarily, then compensates and "normalizes" the exposure shown in th...
