I'd actually really like that feature. There's plenty of times I'm out light painting and have to fumble around trying to find the right button.


I agree.

On the surface, it seems like it may be a nonsense feature, but if you're ever working in a dark environment, this will be a godsend.

I notice also that it has, for video, a 2.7 crop feature. Which is also the crop factor for the Nikon MILCs. :)


yeah I was actually serious then, that is a neat feature and I am so surprised it has not already been done!

The ewetube video showed the camera in P mode. Interesting.

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

It is a Professional camera after all.

Agreed. He seems to be able to make iTTL work better than anyone else.

He reminds me a little of the lead singer from LMFAO - but I enjoyed he's over excited video.
