Thanks for the great feedback everybody. I just got back from NYC today so I havent had a chance to upload all my shots and review them. I will test out the differences between the 350D and 5D under the same settings and condiftions etc and post the results. The reason I brought this up is that I've seen some amazing shots with the 5D and 17-40 on this site and others and haven't really seen that many with the 350 and 17-40 so I expected much better performance. I guess it's the photographer then that makes the difference!

Hi everyone,

 

I finally made the jump to the 5D this weekend from the 350D and I was hoping

for some feedback from fellow 5D users. I have a 17-40mm and 100mm lenses. One

thing I definitely noticed over shooting this weekend is the advantage of the FF

especially on the 17-40 and the great performance at high ISO. But from what I

can tell the image quality is not that much better from the 350D even though

I've taken only about 200 shots around NYC. I was hoping for feedback around the

image quality and sharpness of images. I've always noticed on this site and

others the great sharpness and detail on 5D shots with the 17-40 but so far I've

yet to see it. The 100mm on the 350 performs great as it does on the 5d. So is

it my lens or am I doing something wrong? Should I be shooting at 50 ISO, what

about picture style setting (currently set on "Standard")? Most I shot on P and

AV modes around 8F. Or is it just another case of having to shoot 100 shots to

get that 1 that sticks?

 

Thanks!
