I've had my 5D for a little while now but it's been sat in my camera bag since I bought it as I've been flat out planning our wedding for ages (it happened on Saturday, awesome day 
), as the missus is a teacher we didn't have time to go away properly (honeymoon is in July), so headed off to South Wales for a few nights.
As always these are quick and dirty, no filters, no messing around with tripods etc, I like to shoot as quickly as possible when on holiday so it doesn't get in the way of things. Processed through Snapseed on the new iPad (mainly very minor tweaks), which I'm very pleased to note maintains a pretty decent file size (iPad 1 was outputting at about 800kb, this one is up around the 4MB mark)
Saundersfoot (where we stayed)
Pembroke Castle (chance to play around with high ISO)
Tenby
Thrilled with this one, exactly as it looked in real life (bright sky, very dark on the ground), not something I've been able to capture accurately before...
The 5D is very misleading, the LCD preview is awful. Everything looks very underexposed, but as soon as I load them on to the iPad they pop like nothing else I've ever taken. It was a constant mix of sunshine and showers, so lots of shade but bright skies, and it handled it all brilliantly. Very pleased with my choice of lens' (Canon 17-40mm f4, 50mm 1.8 and 200mm 2.8), all had their uses, the 17-40mm is almost 3D at the wide end, love it, the 50mm on full-frame is a blast and the 200mm 2.8 just blew my mind looking through the viewfinder, the depth of field control possible is ridiculous.
Hawaii, Vegas and San Francisco next, and then hopefully New York again as I would love to see the results from this kit in a place I'm familiar and really comfortable with.
