    Debating between on a Canon 7d and a Nikon D7000.

    The 7d is a great bit of kit once you have got you head around the new AF settings and menu options - its completely different to the other canon range so dont expect to just jump in and start snapping great pics if you are upgrading for another canon varient. It takes a while to get to grips...

    Filling exhaust cut outs on bumper?

    shouldnt be that hard, stick some gaffa tape on the outside of the bumper, rough up the inside of it to get a good key then apply some p40 fibre glass mix on the inside of the bumper. once you have a nice thick strong layer (will require a few coats), remove the gaffa tape and use p38 filler on...

    cannon eos 7d

    access the standard menu on the back that shows shutter speed, aperture, iso etc. select the focus mode. then use the button labelled M-fn (or something like that) near the shutter button to scroll to a different focus mode

    cannon eos 7d

    welcome to club buddy, first thing to do is swap the AF mode from Full auto mode (as its rubbish and only ever focuses on the closest thing in the frame, rather than the biggest / most dominant subject in the frame) and put it to spot AF or expanded spot AF mode

    ISTS VIDEO NOW UP

    i think i might look into find a proper decent quality video tripod to try and reduce camera shake. That vid was shot mostly handheld or with a monopod for a few bits, its surprising how the wind effects stability once you have a large telephoto and lens hood on there. Also i wish they had made...
