Help and Advice / Re: Cameras and Photography Advice Forum

Hi,

I have the Canon 100mm-400mm and the Canon EF 70-200mm F/2.8 USM,
Both are really great lenses,
But at the Maasvlakte during the summer we have real problems with the heatwaves on the water.
But only when you takes pics from 300-400mm
Al the pics between the 300-400mm you can throw them in the trash.
I have the 500D.

Regards,

Dave

I think this discussion will be endless,
I hope that the technical people will do something to take care of this
But disable with the right mouse click will be easy to still copy the picture,
Some with the copyright like vesseltracker easy to remove with some photoshop.

Some exapmles they use my pics without permission
