Yes, I have a full set of ND filters and polarizers. Any pro looking to control their image in differing lights is versed in their use. We use them all the time - with shutter, aperture and ISO, not...

Even with a full Nikon lens kit adapted to EOS, I can't say enough good stuff about the 24-105mm f4. The IQ is simply great and the form factor with the 5DII really makes it a great combination. This...

Sue ya can. Two of my faster lenses have AF confirm and hey cost $30 each. It's only for photography though AF confirm doesn't matter in Live View so don't spend the extra if it's just for HD.
