yup, i just bought a 32GB extreme a few days ago.

Chewy734 · 11-02-2011, 06:17 PM

UDMA or UDMA6? Is the UDMA6 upgrade price worth it?

oneintheory · 11-02-2011, 06:24 PM

UDMA. you're asking the wrong guy in that regard, i have no stinkin clue. i doubt it'd be worthwhile for me.

EngineCo52 · 11-02-2011, 06:39 PM

so im in the market for a new DSLR...im a noob when it comes to DSLR, ive been shooting with my SLR for a few years, so i know the basics...ive always like canon and want to stay with that brand...ive been looking at the T3i is this worth it, or would the T2i be just as good, or suck it up and pay the extra for the Canon 60D ?? i shoot wildlife and such photos, but i want to start doing other genres and some videoing with the Fire Dept

oneintheory · 11-02-2011, 06:48 PM

i'd say a 60D. the controls are better and it gives you more room to grow. you'll outgrow a rebel body much faster than a 60D

This. I regret not spending the extra for the 60D.

you'll only really see a difference when transferring to your machine with a card reader. 5D shoots video fine with just UDMA and it can't shoot fast enough to beat the buffer anyway. the 1Dx on the other hand, it has a much larger bit rate.

with that said, the UDMA6 16GB sandisk is now only $66 (they were like $110+), which sucks because i just bought two more UDMA 16GB cards for $62, which are now $56. oh well.

oh... some selective color for you, lol. by request of client, two and a half years ago:

rodi · 11-02-2011, 09:25 PM

it was a nice comment!

it was "love this but hate that you lost her other foot."

it was a full body shot of a model, her leg was hanging off the sofa and cut off at the ankle on left side of frame, and there was all this dead space on the right side of the frame. careless framing.

Chewy734 · 11-02-2011, 10:17 PM

don't take it personally then rodi... did you have a bromance with him or something?

rodi · 11-02-2011, 10:20 PM

no. just hate that.

Chewy734 · 11-02-2011, 10:23 PM

so who's this douche? I'm curious to his pics now...

rodi · 11-02-2011, 10:26 PM

As photographers, we are artists, and as such we are subjected to civilized conversations of our work and of others. If you cannot accept constructive criticism and engage in conversation about your work, then you do not stand for what you create and you should put the camera down.

i'll pm you the photo.

fully agree

Chewy734 · 11-02-2011, 10:38 PM

rodi, it's a good photo, but I agree with you that the framing is wrong. It's a shame that the photog can't take any criticism. Oh well, his/her loss...
