Only had the camera week so still got a lot to go through. i havent even scratched the surface. To be honest the best way to learn this camera is to use it or go online nad research it as the manual is by far the hardest one to understand that i have seen yet in the Canon DSLS collection.
trying to decipher the wireless flash control is almost impossible. But there are plenty of online resources to help out.
With that in mind I used a wireless trigger for two flashes on the last shoot, it worked p-erfectly.
Little bit more noisy than i would have liked at ISO 640 but still for the most part acceptable. very very responsive with a feather light shutter button.
used more battery power as well than i would have hoped given the so called improved battery life but then im used to shooting with a grip and using two batteries.
the AF points are a dream and really easy to work round. helps to pinpoint the focus so much easier than earlier models.
very customisable for those who like to dabble, but also very user friendly on factory defaults.
A huge amount more options than the 30D some good some for more specialised photography. will take a while to get to the bottom of all the options.
all in all a comfortable, capable camera that offers probably more than is needed.
very impressed so far!
