Thread 'Time to Clean My Sensor vs Fix it in Post'
Sky shot with Dehaze at 100%. View full screen for a laugh.
Hello I have been shooting with my r7 for about 8 months now, with zero issues. I recently bought 24-70 F2.8 USM lens, when I shoot sports and EFC or Mechanical, I will get the error 20 and have to restart my R7. I have updated to 1.7.1 firmware, I have notice when I press the AF assigned button(back) and shutter button at the same time is when this happens or triggers it. The camera had a long pause at first and them would start shooting, now after the firmware update and I cleaned my...
I have the Canon R7 and the two Sigma RF zooms, the 10-18 and 18-50. Im looking for an RF mount lens to complement the telephoto end. The obvious choice is the RF-S 55-210, but from what I see online, that lens will struggle with the R7's sensor resolution. Then I look at the RF 100-400 f5.6 to f8, but that leaves a big gap from 50mm to 100mm. The 70-200 f4L is expensive. I already have the EF 70-300, but am looking for a quality improvement on that. Any thoughts please?
Hi all, I shoot manual with auto iso on my R5 Mkii, in the past if i changed the ISO, after a short time it returned to auto, however it has stopped doing that and remains at whatever ISO i last shot. I am sure have changed a setting somewhere that has changed it from returning to auto iso, but cannot seem to find it again. Any help really appreciated as it is driving me mad Mark.
Thread 'Focus Stacking MANY photos: Macro'
I have Adobe Creative Cloud and I generally edit in Lightroom and Photoshop when needed. I regards to Focus Stacking which is your preferred method when you have 15 or more photos to Stack? This is for stacking ONLY. Lightroom > Photoshop > Lightroom Canon DPP > Lightroom Photo below is for your viewing pleasure only.
Has anyone managed to photograph Comet C/2025 R2 (SWAN) or C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) yet? I'm waiting for SWAN to get higher up in the southern sky (around the 19th or 20th) and I'll give it a go. Ditto for Lemmon in the west.
I am curious as to which charger you are using, if you are using one. Also, I am especially interested if any of you use a dual charger and if so, which brand/model? I am a battery grip user, have been since my Elan IIE film camera 30 years ago. I am not old, but just experienced...haha. I got used to a battery grip then and have had one for every camera since. So I always have two batteries to charge when I charge. Canon used to produce a dual charger for the early DSLRs, I know...
Hi there, I'm configuring my new R6m2 and was wondering if it's OK to just leave anti-flicker shooting on all the time? I don't shoot indoor venues much right now, but would like to set and forget this just in case. I see no reason why it would impact normal shooting for street, outdoor portraits, etc., but wanted to ask anyway. Thanks!
Since I have upgraded to the R6MKII, I am probably going to sell my EOS R as I probably will not have a need for a backup/second full frame body. It will probably just sit on a shelf and collect dust. My EOS R body has a small area where the finish is worn off, it is close to, but not around, the AF on button where your right thumb would rest....on the corner. I don't know what caused it, but that doesn't matter. Currently the camera has a black adhesive wrap covering all of the metallic...
Thread 'Opinions on Godox iT30Pro flash?'
I did a night shoot this week and found myself wanting a flash, but the one I have is too big to fit in my bag. I posted about the new Viltrox Z3 unit earlier, but didn't really like it aside from the size. Has anyone found a mini flash/trigger unit that compares to the Godox iT30 Pro? https://www.digitalcameraworld.com/cameras/flashguns/godox-it30-pro-review One place I'd really like to photograph with multiple light sources is this tunnel underneath I-5 in Sacramento, but I definitely...
Any of you guys got 2 camera harness see they vary from quite expensive to cheap im aware buy nice not twice But something I might use once every 2 or 3 weeks
The Viltrox Spark Z3 flash is now available at B&H. Here’s a review: https://dustinabbott.net/2025/09/viltrox-spark-z3-flash-review/
Thread 'Scott Kelby Annual Worldwide Photo Walk completed!'
Yesterday I lead a group of photographers in shooting local on our Scott Kelby Annual Worldwide Photo Walk. Just about every photographer knows who Scott Kelby is as an ambassador for Adobe PS and LR, he started the Photo Walks in 2008 as a way to bring photographers within a community together to take pictures on a specified day all around the world. This is my second one to lead, we walked in a park within our community and had 20 participants. Most of those who came were also members of...
Opinion please for a lighter weight Canon, than the original R. R50 w/RF-S 55-210 F5-7.1 IS STM vs Rebel T7 w/EF-S 55-250 f/4-5.6 IS STM This is for my wife who want's to take good snapshots and will probably not shoot in Manual Mode and video is not a selling point.
I have a question, if anyone knows answer please tell me. When creating a mask in LRC, i usually select subject, then refine it using a + and - brush, until i am happy with the mask and all of the subject is masked. i then invert this mask to adjust everything except the subject. The issue i have is that sometimes when in invert the mask it is not the opposite of my refined mask, but is all over the place with bits missing, bits added etc. Doesn’t happen all the time but winds me up when it...
1R5 and 1R5MKii The R5 on a 600mm APO and the R5MKii with a 200-800mm lens at800mm Why is the magnification greater on the telescope?
Thread 'R5 Need help please'
I have had my R5 for 4 years and 6 months ago bought the RF 100-500 but for awhile my aviation just does not look sharp from other photographers that I have seen, what am I doing wrong? Should IS be switched off when over 1/2000th? It was a 108 degrees outside so am I expecting too much? 1) AF-1 photo was FL 450mm - Auto ISO400 - 1/2000th - F/7.1 - Electronic - Crop/aspect ratio 3:2 (is this the issue) - Case 4 with Eye detect sect to Vehicles - Metering Mode Evaluative Metering 2.)...

Hello, I am just setting up my R6 mkii and I'm uncertain which focusing mode to use. I typically shoot landscapes, not the grand landscapes but landscapes that I call intimate landscapes. They are a small portion of what might be a grand landscape. I also shoot natural abstracts involving trees, rocks, etc.. TheR6 mkii camera seems very complicated but I chose it for it's low-light capability. Hopefully someone can suggest a focusing mode that will give me the best coverage for my type of...
Has anyone tried to ream out an ext. tube to make a 1.4 or 2x extender fit so the 100-500 mm could be dialed back to 100? If so what were the results? I have read that it could not be done because the contact traces were exposed before the opening was large enough for the extender to fit.
