We here at Just Wrote A Blog try to give you the best possible content in a timely manner, even though we’ve sucked at it in the past. I myself got a little carried away with my 3-part ‘Weekend with Canon’ mini series, and did not take into account a couple of things. One of them is how massive the jpg’s are (converted from RAW) on a 50 MP camera. File sizes ranged from 30-43 MB. I will need to maneuver a few things around so you all can have access the full size JPG’s, as well as small enough files for the normal blog. The blog entry itself is a bit of all over the place, so I need to refine that a scoche.
So while we fix these issues, please enjoy a photo of some beets (above) that I took with the 5DS and the filthy fifty (50mm F/1.2 L)
As always, leave us a comment or like us on FB and or here. And while you’re at it, might as well follow us too, so you don’t miss out on timely missed content =P

Earworm: X Ambassadors – Renegades
So this song has been plaguing my subconscious for some time now since it has been used in the Jeep Renegade commercial. I think that vehicle is ugly, but I am thankful for it’s existence since it has introduced me to this wonderful earworm worthy song.
Enjoy the harmonious harmony of XA
Weekend With Canon (A 3-Part Mini-Series) – Part “the first”: The Body of the 5DS
It’s nice of Canon to reminds us to Bring It. You know: extra memory cards, batteries, lenses, etc.
Thank you to Fotocare for holding this rental for me. <-Useless plug, well maybe.
Let me get something out of the way first. Canon’s 5DS is the first Canon DSLR that I have spent any significant time with. I have shot DRebels, and A 7D Mk1, but only for a few shots, and really just a quick look with some of my various friends gears.
Having said that, the main reason why I never really considered Canon (more…)
Congratulations to Cheesecake!
I would like to take a moment and congratulate our co-founder Cheesecake for surviving the High School years. We welcome you to adulthood, and it only get’s that much more fun from here on in.
The look of someone losing the game.
Shoot out!
Shooting Canon’s 5DS has been challenging to say the least. Challenging in a sense that I truly hate it’s ergonomics.
Anyway, resolution wise my old D700 won’t be able to keep up, but let’s see how my Nikkor 50mm F/1.4D holds up against the much more expensive and much bigger Canon 50mm F1.2 L II
Will be shooting comparison shots throughout the day. Stay tuned.
Snappy Fridays – Weekend Toy
We get to play with Canon’s new 5DS with the vaunted 50mm F/1.2 L mounted.
Jezza’s Film Follies (Kodak Ektar Edition)
A flower starting to whittle away.
Shooting black and white is fun and all, but, I do have a soft spot for colours. I mean, we do see colour everyday. So, after polishing off the Ilford PanF, I popped in a roll of Kodak’s Ektar 100. Well actually, I had dropped off the Ilford for developing at CRC at the start of my lunch hour, and that left me with an unloaded camera. So I stopped by Fotocare, and picked up Kodak’s Ektar 100.

Jezza’s Film Follies (Out Takes)
Flat Iron Rear End
So like I mentioned in my previous follies post, I had my ISO set to 400 instead of 50, and well, the first half of my roll wasn’t so great. (more…)
Jezza’s Film Follies (Part 1)
‘What the hell are you?’
As our newest editor stated here, I issued a challenge to him (and myself really) to do a film shoot out. We both have Nikon film cameras that were collecting dust, and we were getting back into the whole film thing.
For a while we’ve shot film here and there since moving on to digital – both of us started photography when digital wasn’t even a thing yet. (I just wanted to get that out of the way so this makes us non-hipsters LoL.) So during one of our Hangout sessions (Google Hangouts – since I’m in NYC and Alvin’s in GTA) (more…)
