a700 battery grip with joystick navi pad.. No mafan.. Lol  Added on July 1, 2010, 4:26 pmit actually depends on where you focus lock. If your focusing dot is placed at the bg, of coz the subject will be oof. Its either that or you triggered the shutter too fast even before the camera manage to lock focus This post has been edited by lwliam: Jul 1 2010, 04:26 PM

kevinwcw: Close up filters give more magnification with longer focal lengths.
The close up filters I have just happen to be 55mm - they can be any size, but the bigger ones cost more obviously. The Cokin filters are independent of filter size but I do have a 77mm Cokin adapter hence I am able to use it with my Zeiss 135mm F1.8.
Gouki: Yes diffusers for the 580EXII fit the F58 perfectly.

if it carries the 7 digit, then i think the grip will have full functions.. if not also they will use back the A700's grip..

QUOTE(fansoption @ Jul 1 2010, 03:41 PM) Hi, shoot portrait normal is using wide or spot or local, why i use my 17-50 tammy , shoot portrait with F2.8 and Spot sometime bg clear, then the portrait blur, is that use wide shoot portrait is better? use local AF. select the points u want to focus.

Shooting portraits, i use mostly local AF. At widest aperture, using spot-AF and recompose is dangerous for me.. suddenly ear sharp, face not sharp =__="
so far my tammy 17-50 do not have prob.. but for portraits i tend to like primes moar for the bokeh
