EOS-1 Series is Canon's flagship camera model which uses the autofocus EF/EOS system as the backbone. The Series which comprised of the original EOS-1 has evolved to the present EOS-1v (film based) to EOS-1D (Digital based) which widely acclaimed as the most used professional camera right now at the professional user's market. Here is a common Message Board designed specifically for Canon EOS-1 Series SLR model which aims for common support and sharing mutual knowledge among users.

we have been very pleased with our EOS Rebel XSN; until recently; ishe acted like the batteries were tired, slowed film handling, etc.; so I've changed the batteries (twice). The auto focus doesn't seem to work, lens will adjust to focus and then as you hold down the shutter release, it won't take the shot, and lens goes out of focus ... NO picture ! Suggestions ?? do I take it to a repair shop ? ...thanx !

Url : Card full error from Kodak DCS 560
Date : 01:50 AM Thursday 11 January, 2007

I would like to help your opinion about this:
I got a Kodak DCS560 that stop shooting after the very first frame. Then, it juts has "Unable to take picture. Card full." message, although the media card is empty.

Here's what I had done so far:

---Change the media card- did not work
----Full formatted of the card(s)- did not work
-----Plugging off the battery/power. Then, reseated the DCS560- did not work.
( I had tried using SanDisk of 8/16/32/64/128 MB)

If I plug the camera to my computer and then tells the camera to by pass its cards and just copy my shoot; the camera runs okay, though.
Have any of you guys and gals had a similar problem? How you when after it?

Thanks.
George

Goodmorning, I uses the Canon EOS 5000,I always leave it on auto(which is the green light position) but I observe when I snap indoor pictures the flash light does not synchronize with the aperture.This makes my picture to be dim.Is the Auto button not functional indoors or in dark room? What is your advice? Treat kindly?

Just bought a used EOS 1 (original) - Does the LC-3 or even LC-4 work / compatible with this early model.
______________________________________

G.B. Dorrington (AUS) (per Garyh, temporary 23-29 Dec. only):

LC-3 is compatible with the EOS1/1N/RS. It is only effective within a 100m line-of-sight range (ie. no obstructions). This can be overcome by "relaying" several units in order to "bend" the signal around corners or obtructions. A remote switch 60T3 can also be plugged in for manual firing rather than wireless firing.

No information available on LC-4.

From Gavin Holt: I have a 1D and 10D that I love to use with my 50mm f1.4. My question is how does the crop factor affect the depth of field in relation to the focal length? I believe a larger sensor should decrease the DOF, but is that for the same lens or for different lenses that have the same equivalent focal length? - Gavin http://www.gavinphotography.com/

***
The 1D has an image sensor conversion factor of 1.3x, so the affect on depth of field would be very slight, especially with a 50mm f1.4 lens. Colleagues using the TS-E 24mm f3.5L perspective control lens overcome any Dof shortcoming either through manipulation of the image plane or hyperfocusing the lens; consideration of clipping is still done by traditional photographers using cameras with less than 100% viewfinders (ie. EOS 5). With tele/zoom lenses, the image clipping needs to be taken into account more carefully.

The image sensor in the Canon 5D has a 1:1 conversion factor and has no negligible clipping and loss of depth of field as the sensor is essentially the same size as 35mm (24x36mm).

I recently bought a canon 30D and I'm having difficulty attaching my old but in mint condition (I only used it maybe twice)canon zoom lens 75-300mm. It would drop in but I am not able to turn and lock it in place. Please advise. - Joel Palisoc

***
It is sounds likely that the 73-300 zoom is contacting something inside the camera, preventing the lens from being secured. I would be very wary of attempting attachment as the lens potentially could damage something inside the 30D; how this could be so is a matter of conjecture; it is certainly new to me.

Examine the lens mount (on the lens) for any signs of damage or scuffing and likewise, inside the camera.

***
Canon's Speedlite 540EZ, first introduced in 1994, is still highly regarded as one of the most powerful flashguns for EOS cameras for far-off subjects, assuming you don't work outside sensible limits. With a guide number of 54 (metres, ISO 100)it is more than powerful enough for the majority of situations. A 200-300mm zoom will work OK with this flash if you are not too far from the subject, at such time the flash will advise you if you are out of range of its capacity.
