Welcome to our Canon RF Shooters Forum

Be apart of something great, join today!

I'll (hopefully) be upgrading to a Canon R6 III in the next week or 2, for video as much or more than still photography. I Currently have both R8 and R7 (with kit 18-150 as only crop lens). For common sense sake of having a back up camera as well as my partner wanting to learn to shoot I want to keep one of them but I'm having trouble deciding which to sell and which to keep R7 has much better battery life and no over heat issues as well as an actual shutter and feel less toy like, but...
I currently have a Sigma 150-600 Contemporary, which I adapt to my R5 with pretty good results. It’s great for times when I’m at a specific location and usually a monopod, but I’ve been thinking about getting the RF 100-400 as a lighter option to have when hiking with my wife. I know it’s not a super bright lens, but have heard it has pretty good IQ. Seems like with the R5 there would be lots of room to crop when needed. Just wondering if anyone here has that lens with an R5 and what...
When I choose a flexible zone my EOS R5 mark II, and I press the rate button I cannot modify the flexible zone. I cannot find the answer on the internet Thanks in advance for your kind help.
Thread 'R5 Mk II focus issue'
Overall I love the R5 Mk II, but sometimes I just want to kick the camera. I was driving down the padre Island Nat Seashore Sunday and spotted a rare visitor to the area, a Semipalmated Plover. I framed the shot and waited for the "eye finder" to lock onto the birds eye, then I shot a dozen frames. When I was processing the shots I just wanted to scream. You can see the "Focus Point" was clearly on the eye, but the actual focus point was several feet behind the bird in the surf. This is...
I travel quite a bit and I find it disappointing that there is no inbuilt GPS without having to connect via the Canon connect app. Most smartphones have GPS so just why they don't include it is anyone's guess. It requires the phone to be on which I don't want to do because some of the remote treks I do I cannot recharge the phone. Of course some older cell phones don't have GPS anyway I raised this point to them at the photography show at the NEC. The said they would relay the feedback
Raw shooting doest it matter what its set on. Just watched a you tube a guy suggested "neutral" true indication of highlights etc. Sort of a starting point. To be honest ive never changed it from standard. Welcome your thoughts.
I am using the 24-105 F4 with an R5 ii with latest camera firmware. The 2.07 firmware brings the ability to use the focus ring as a control ring. I cannot see how to set this up - I have installed the firmware. Has anyone done this?
Has anyone ever tried Extension Tubes on the RF 24mm F/1.8? All of my other RF lenses, 15-35mm f/2.8, 24-70mm f/2.8, 70-200mm f/2.8, 100-500mm fit the Meike extension tubes, but not the 24mm f/1.8 MACRO. In the mean time, I'll be searching the Internet starting with the Meike website.
I have an R7 and the 100-500L lens that are used for aviation photography. When it's on, the results are beautiful. However, my experience with this combination is that the auto focus results are very inconsistent and highly annoying to say the least. In the same stream of 5 or 6 shots, at least one third to one half will be out of focus. The frame rate is 8 fps, EFCS is selected as is spot AF. This is not my experience at the same settings with my T7i and Canon 7D II using the EF 100-400...
Does anyone have any experience with this company or its NAS products? Good? Bad? Ugly? My QNAP NAS is getting old and I thought it prudent to replace it before it gaaaks. Any insights or suggestions would be most appreciated! Cheers, -- Craig

Thread 'My adjusted workflow'
I did some extensive testing of PureRaw 6. Great product and I almost pressed the buy button. Here is an example of the adjusted workflow. ISO 10000. I did all my normal editing in LrC which included Denoise AI. I then sent it to NoNoise. DXO would have likely did better but this is good enough for my needs. I also prefer the workflow over starting out with a DNG. I'd have to keep it if I used DXO. With NoNoise I can delete the TIFF that comes back from NoNoise if I wish and I still have a...

Someone asked this question on another forum, and after a bit of research I realized I have owned: Pelix FT QL FTb AE-1 AE-1 Program T-90 Elan D30 D60 5D 5d MkIII and IV 7D and MkII R5 R7 (briefly) R5 MkII (2) How about you?
Thread 'Canon EF 100-400 4.5-5.6L II'
Supernice lens, works well with extender EF 1.4x II giving you total 560mm. Even with the extender autofocus works on EOS-R (it shouldn't according to the manual). Of course EF-RF adaptor was used.
Has anyone used a 3rd party battery grip with the r6 mkii?
Good day, Unfortunately my Canon R7 stopped working when I slipped during a phototrip in Lofoten Islands in Norway recently, and the camera (and myself!) got in contact with seawater. camera died. Im OK. I will buy a new R7 (insurance coverage), however I was wondering if anyone has advise what to do with the defect R7 body. could I sell it for spare parts ? LCD screen, viewfinder, buttons/switches, even the sensor I think are all in good order. I can feel/hear the IBIS move when I move the...
