I've done both Rick, I set the aperture I want in aperture priority and watch my shutter speed stays above 1/500s.

Great shot Iain. Since you were standing in front of the dog, did it clear you too?

If you look carefully at the top of the dog, you can see a harness with a d-ring at the top. It looks like there may be an invisible wire holding the dog up:doh:

Seems od that the d-ring is extending up rather than laying flat. :rofl:

What kind of trick photography is this Iain? Is this the type of thing you have resorted to since going over to Canon?? :no:

Sorry Iain, couldn't help myself - it is still a great photo.

Next you will be telling us that Canon lenses selectively delete image content (the wire) so that they spare their users the pain of learning Photoshop.
