    SSD Recommendations, please.

    A couple of months ago I bought a 4TB Samsung T7 SSD on al from B&H. After I reformatted it and renamed it I started copying a bunch of data from my audio recording hard drive to the new T7 drive. The things fried itself on the very first data write. I had about 1.2TB that I was trying to...

    SHOCKED at RF 70-200 f/2.8 performance on R6!!

    I used to own the F4 version of the 70-200. It's a great starter lens, but if you deal with any low light scenarios, you really want the f2.8 version. The only real plus it has over the 2.8 is that it's smaller and lighter.

    Canon R6 II OK to simply leave anti-flicker shooting on?

    I think if you aren't shooting around areas that are lit by LED or florescent lights then it's not necessary. I use it when I'm shooting indoors on stages with LED lighting, like my daughter's dance recitals. Without it you see the banding on the cyc backdrops.

    Harness

    I use a Black Rapid Blackline II when I carry dual cameras. They're about $200 USD.

    Micro SD Cards

    I only use micro SD cards in devices that require them, such as my drone or action cameras. I don't really like them as I prefer to use V90 SD cards and the V90 micro SD cards are few and far between.

    Packing Camera Gear for Hawaii

    I know as soon as I get there and having left my 100-500 at home that I'm going to wish I had it with me. But I just don't want to take that much gear with me, so I'll have to make due. I was also looking at the dark skies map because I had hoped I might be able to do some night photography...

    Packing Camera Gear for Hawaii

    So I'm going to Hawaii with the wife for 9 days. We leave in a week, on the 24th. I have to go for work: have to attend a convention. I'm taking my R6 mkII (with battery grip). Planning to take my RF 24-70mm f/2.8, and my RF 70-200mm f/2.8, RF 16mm f/2.8 and one of my Sirui FF 1.6x Anamorphic...

    IR or Full Spectrum Conversions?

    Who has done an IR or Full Spectrum conversion for their cameras? I have and RP that I'm thinking about sending to Kolari Vision for an IR or FS conversion. Since I have an R6mkII the RP gets left behind. Seems like it would be a good candidate for conversion. Did you find that it was...

    Rumors R6 III already?

    I think Canon is in wait and see mode for the R6 mkIII with regards to the tariff situation. They know it's likely to be their best selling camera, like the R6 mkII is currently. But if the tariff prices put it too much above the $2,500 price point its going to eat into their sales unless they...

    Aviation Jets! Part Deux

    Where were you that you were so close to parallel with the jets and they were close to the tree line. Some great shots.

    Did I make the right choice picking the R7 over the R8 ?

    Likewise, I sold my R7 after a couple of months. I found the autofocus to be less than stellar. I was more than happy with my R6 mkII and the R7 couldn’t compare. I do have an RP, and would rather have an R8 over the R7. I also just wasn’t a fan of the cropped sensor images.

    Canon R6 II External Microphone for Canon R6 Mark II

    I don't think you are going to get a player to wear a wireless mic on the field. Much less, that it may be against the rules as it could be used for cheating purposes. Plus, I don't think it would last long getting banged around on a football field.

    Canon R6 II External Microphone for Canon R6 Mark II

    A lot of people are going to tell you that you need a shot gun microphone, one that has a narrow pick up pattern and is deigned to pick up sound from a long distance away. These can be somewhat useful, but most of them have a pick up pattern that is just barely more narrow than about a 90...

    Canon R6 II My R6 MKII keeps burst firing after I stop touching the shutter button.

    Does the problem go away if you disable the back button focus?
