Fajitas!

Are you/do you;

a) shooting RAW

b) shooting JPEG

c) know how to over and underexpose to effect

d) post process the photographs

e) use the less simple, but more intuative settings on the camera, AV, TV, etc to effect

Just because you've spent more money dosn't mean you'll take better pictures, you've still got to work towards that.

It scares me that people spend a large sum of money on these cameras and don't know the name lol!

Any way op could you link us to a photo from the 5D?from the camera with no processing just incase your post processing program removes the exif we'll be able to see where you're going wrong hopefully..

Were you shooting auto on the 400D?

Right, well that makes no sense in context of what you replied to...

What aspect of the 400D was limiting you so that you required a 5D?

I think she just deleted the part where i asked what mode was she using on the 400D

I swearched the name on your site,and found your flickr if you don't mind can i link everyone here to the image so they can see it..

I was looking at "IMG_0291" on your flickr page and the exif shows iso 1250 and a shutter speed of 1/15

What exactly do you fond wrong with the images?

If you shoot Jpeg on the 5d it will not fulfill its purpose but if you shoot RAW and adjust afterwards the image quality will be far better.
