2nd gig with Canon EOS 20d - 1st with Canon 580EX Flash

I am burning onto cd’s 2.9 GB worth of photos from my recent Bar Mitzfah event photo gig for the client. My 2nd gig with the Canon EOS 20d.

The current distribution medium of choice for photos is still the cd-r.

And since there are 476 of these full sized 8.2 MP jpeg’s from the gig, I need to spread the love onto 6 CD-R’s. Burning hell….

Even with the burn time around 6 or 7 minutes per cd - it’s taking excrutiatingly long.

I have been doing glamour, portrait and event coverage photos for many years, however this was my first paid bar mitzfah event job.

Also it was the first time I used my new Canon EOS 20d with the new Canon 580EX flash (previous gig using it was outdoors at a country music video shoot where they had softboxes set up).

The pictures of the Bar Mitzzzfuh turned out great. I’m really impressed with the EOS 20d and the 580EX flash. Great combination. Reasonably light and easy to carry for prolonged periods of time. Simple to use because they work so well together.

Is the Canon EOS 20d deserving of all the praise?

I’m still getting used to my new digital SLR, the Canon EOS 20d, which I bought on March 30, 2005.

I must say I am impressed, but it is a big change from the comfort zone of my “prosumer” digital cameras which suprisingly had a lot of benefits, feature wise and size wise.

I’ll be writing about my impressions of this hot new Digital SLR which I’ve already put through the paces on 2 pro gigs so far.

Do you have one? Have been contemplating getting one? Whatta think?
