ghillies 209 Posted January 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Did you miss something? Oh dear... NO, it probably wouldn't register the siggy, or the Tamron, but I doubt you have a problem with vignetting (if that's what you meant) with either of those lenses? Don't worry about it - I had a look at specs & your camera doesn't seem to have the AF micro adjustments anyway. You can still test the lens focus by faffing about photographing rulers at 45 degrees or targets at measured distances. Life's too short though, innit? I have tried 1/30 at 300mm... it doesn't really deliver the goods but it's slightly better if I rest long lenses on my zimmer frame. Doesn't matter what ISO you use but all cameras will find it harder to focus and slow down a bit in low light and low contrast conditions. lol i'll have to take the zimmer frame with me next time... no np's with vignetting. the canon 18-55 is is a bit of suprise though, glad i got one tbh.

MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 read the manual a couple of times, then went to the disc manual... the periferal corection thing sais 'register a lens to the camera' etc etc, 'it'll even out any darkened cores etcs, alas, it only corects for the listed canon lens's, or at least as far as i can see, but it read stick a lense on register it and it'll sort the periferals as the jpeg does, (aplies it to RAW)... did i miss something Kathy? lol. it wont register the sigma. hmmm the lens test, which one? edit...you should try 1/30'th on 300mm lololol any iso. I don't understand what you mean by periferal correction thing Does it only work for canon lenses? WTF is it anyway? I should know this stuff, shouldn't I? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When you get shading or bighting or an uneven 'light’ across the image because of a lens, vignetting in a short word from lens. Basically (from the manual/net) when you’re in jpeg quality the compression apparently measures across the image taken and evens out the light and darks of a 'bad lens' so the pic is even in the corners. But in raw it doesn’t correct... until you register the canon lens from the list (via the soft ware whilst the camera is linked up)by ticking a box and it corrects the lens 'difference' for raws (the same as it 'does' for jpegs when the camera runs the data through its buffers. The canon range of lenses has 'corrections for it’ when using RAW stored/function alowing in the camera. edit...seems like it could be 'applied' to all lenses if the jpeging does it any way? hmmmmm.. second edit in.........cheeky bleeders lol, they word it very nicely lol.(the penny just dropped....)''with the software you can register a lens''...sounds like any lens, and sounds like you can correct on the software..but, it just lets you tick a 'canon lens' box in a list...hmmmmm).

MuttleMcTuttle 21 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Oh right, don't think I've got round to loading the canon software yet... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
