**amiidae** · 04-10-2009, 02:33 PM

New equipment : Canon 7D & 100mm Macro L,

Focusing : First time that I use AI servo to track them,

Photoshop function : Using the "unsharp mask" on photoshop for the first time

Aristochromis christyi aka Malawi Hawk - yawning shot x 2.

The AI Servo working well for you to capture such shots yah...

Your unsharp mask also quite mile lah

So how you like the 7D and lens?

**amiidae** · 04-10-2009, 02:42 PM

ya, the AF is quite fast esp with this new len. Much faster than the older 100mm macro mounted on the same body.

On the unsharp mask part... hmm, I just try try for fun.

Faster AF very crucial esp when shooting small moving fish.
