Modern Classic SLRs Series :
Canon EOS-1 Series SLR camera models - Message Board/Guestbook

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. Hope fully it will see its worth in time to come.

I have been informed that my Vivitar Thyristar 283 puts out too much voltage for my eos 650, as such I run the risk of frying my camera's electronics. Would someone please give me some counsel on this?
Thank you.

This is ONE HELL of a website on the EOS-1n !

Yes indeed! It's a great place to lose oneself or find oneself on matters relating to the 1N! Here in Australia, there's a bit of a renaissance occuring among advanced amateurs and professionals, with a 'feeding frenzy' evident when a EOS 1N appears on eBay. I've heard that the EOS 1V (1N's replacement) is "far too complex and overpowering" for many pros and some are going back to the 1N. I've snapped up 2 so far! Old classics *never* die. :-) —grh

I am very upset with the pictures I took using my new camera. I took 100's of pictures at my son's basketball game last weekend only to discover that most of them were out of focus when they were printed. I used the "automatic" setting and zoomed in on almost all of the pictures. The background seemed to be in focus on many of the pictures, but my son was blurry. What could I have done wrong?

There are several possibilities for this disaster. Check to see that the AF/MF switch on the lens is not set to MF (manual focus). The camera may have focused on something other than your son (you did not mention what model EOS you are using). In sports situations, it is sometimes best to select one focusing point and use that all the time. Also, check that the lens is firmly engaged on the lens mount; if it is not, AF function and aperature readout will not work or be erratic. Lastly, check that the batteries in the camera are not exhausted. Failing these cursory checks, sit down with the camera for a while and thoroughly look it over with the instructions close by. Here is my case: unfamiliarity with a new camera is very often the point of undoing for many people. It is essential to 'come to grips' with the camera intimately to save yourself (and your son!) any grief at future important events. —grh.

I just recently picked up a used EOS 650 as my first SLR. The Camera came with a Canon 28-80 EF lens. As I am new to this type of camera is this lens a good starting place or is there a better general purpose lens I can use as I am learning to use the camera. I am just taking pictures of anything right now to practice but will be doing basic family , vacation and outdoor type photos in the future. Thanks in advance.

The EOS 650 and 28-80mm combination is fine for your present intended purpose, that is, family, vacation and outdoor type photos. As your skills develop (and this takes time), you may like to expand your range and add perhaps a 70-200mm lens, which is a very good 'bridge' for your existing 28-80, despite some overlap in focal length. Over time, you will probably discover you have a wish for either moderate telephoto shots or, at the other extreme, like exploring the ultra-wide angle of view afforded by 24mm and 20mm lenses. Explore the EOS 650 thoroughly and work it to suit your imaging intentions and, like all EOS SLRs, it will deliver. If you don't have a flash, I suggest you add one to fill-in on those occasions where shadows and bright sun may work against you in exposure. Enjoy the journey.

Oh.. sorry, I am referring to some EF lenses like the http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/hardwares/classics/eos/EF-lenses/EF200mmf1.8L USM/index.htm by the way, this site is great!

The use of a polariser would have a twofold affect: 1, it would reduce the effective aperture by 1.5 to 2 stops and, 2. it would be very expensive to get a polariser for the front element. Not all of these "white knight" Canon pro lenses have a front element thread to take filters, the idea that it is a bit of a fantasy to carry such a huge filter around on location (if indeed such a large diameter filter exists!). Rear drop-in filters are easier but a Polariser will still be very expensive as its design is modified specifically for drop-in filter use. Another point that needs to be made is to use only the highest quality filter (any filter, not particularly just a polariser) on any of Canon's 'L' series optics; flare and ghosting can occur with either front or rear drop-in filters, especially with large diameter front elements. B+W and Hoya Super HMC PRO filters are the only filters that can be recommended for use on 'L' series lenses. A B+W Kaesemann Circular Polariser is the first choice for any front-element use on 'L' series lenses, despite the enormous expense of these particular B+W filters. —grh
