Is there REALLY any difference between a blog and a tumblelog? I write the same posts in Blogger, Wordpress, Tumblr or Posterous.

Not really, but Tumblr has a lot of features to make re-sharing other people's content easier.
- Mark Trapp
i see it as a more immediate way of posting something, tumblr for shorter posts, a blog for something more extensive. Like tumblr guys say, a blog is a journal, tumblr is a scrapbook.
- Oscar Juarez
Nah, they just make some things easier than others. Like screwdrivers with different handles (not even heads)
- Roberto Baca
I used to think the same way, but since I discovered Posterous I have changed my mind: I use it to post to my main blog and to my Tumblr, and lately I'm starting to consider to make it my only blog. It's so easy to use!

"This is where narco folklore started, with songs and icons that pay homage to gangsters, and where children want to grow up to be traffickers. How Sinaloa confronts its own divided soul offers insight on where the drug war may be going for Mexico, where more than 5,000 people have been killed in drug-related violence this year.

Canon's 50mm f/1.2 lens is a piece of crap. I kick myself almost every day for spending so much money on this lens. How can such an expensive lens suck so badly at something as simple as autofocus?
Susan Dennis, Holger Eilhard, Alexander Arsky and 18 other people liked this
Was considering getting that among others, with a Cannon 50D. What are you using it with?
- Kevin Mullett
yeah too expensive to be failing like that... my 1.8 also sucks at autofocus but its a 70 dollars one. hehehe
- Oscar Juarez
So which 50mm do you recommend? the f/1.4?
- Alex Scoble
Try this for serious lens review: http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews...
- Pierre
I was considering getting the f/1.4 it is better at autofocus then the 1.8?
- Mark Groves
Yeah, I was much happier with my f/1.4 for a helluva less amount of money. I'm using the f/1.2 on a 5d. What use is buying a fast expensive lens to shoot in low light if it's too dark to manual focus in low light and the thing can't autofocus for crap. This lens is my biggest regret of any photographic purchase I've ever made.
- Thomas Hawk
I didn't know anyone even made a f/1.2 autofocus lens. It seems technically very, very difficult.
- Kevin Fox
And that's saying a lot...because as far as I know you've made a lot of photographic purchases...well you sure saved me some money for whenever I get a Rebel.
- Alex Scoble
That sucks big time. The AF on my Nikkor 1.8 is also meh, but like Oscar said both of us paid about a fifth of what you did for the 1.2.
- Josh
Thomas do you have the same problems with your 1.2 in normal lighting conditions or just low-light? If it is only low-light it might not be just the lens. Just a thought.
- Kenton
1.2 is a quick lens, and should kick ass in low light. maybe defective?
- Morgan Haley
was it an 'L' lens?
- Morgan Haley
Low light autofocus sucks the most, but even in more reasonable light I've still been unhappy. I might not bitch so much if I only paid a couple hundred bucks or so, but when you pay $1,600 for L Series glass you really should get more than the performance that I've gotten out of this lens.
- Thomas Hawk
I'll agree that it does suck at focusing in low light, but the back focus issues some have hasn't been a problem for me. I do love the lens for normal use. I used to have the 50 1.4 too it was a great lens, far and away better than the 1.8 (some asked in this thread). I just got my 5DMII, so I'll be re-evaluating it on that body shortly...
- Ryan
Right. The jump from the f/1.8 to the f/1.4 represents great value. But the jump from the f/1.4 to the f/1.2 does not. A big part of the appeal of f/1.2 is to shoot in low light in my opinion and for the money I give the f/1.2 a fail in this regard. Will be interested in how it handles with your m2 - as well as mine if I can ever get one.
- Thomas Hawk
Thomas, I've found that on a 5D, the 50mm f/1.2 only focuses reliably when using the center AF point (i.e. the sole cross-type AF sensor). This speaks more to the AF system in the 5D than the lens, methinks. FWIW, I've generally been happy with the sharpness of the low-light photos I've taken at f/1.2: http://bit.ly/50mm-f1...
- Jason Chen
if it's the L lens, Canon should replace or fix it for you because it sounds like it's not working as it was designed to work. i'm sure you have looked into this deeper than anyone, but just wanted to make sure you weren't forgetting that the lens is supposed to kick all ass. when it fails to do so, i'd tell Canon. the 'L' lens mystique is something like like to maintain. if that doesn't work, i'll buy it from you for $50 bucks.
- Morgan Haley
TH - don't chuck it in until you pay with the low light on the 5d'II ;)

Tuesday, 9 December 2008 Canon 5D MkII By Night I've had my hands on a 5D MkII for over a week now as I'm reviewing it for the BJP's Christmas edition. Its going to be a sad day when I have to return the camera back to Canon. The low light capabilities of this camera are absolutely astonishing. It almost makes you feel like you're cheating as it opens up possibilities where normally you would either: a) have to get a tripod b) use flash and kill the mood c) leave and go home The shot of the London Eye (above) is a nice shot by night. Not a difficult or demanding shot. However, you have to realise that it was taken hand held at 4000ASA! The picture's been taken using a Canon 45mm f2.8 TS-E (tilt and shift) which is quickly becoming a favourite lens for creative shooting. The second picture of France's President Sarkozy (above) visiting Downing Street was taken yesterday after 4pm - basically it was almost pitch black.
