    Other Lens or R7

    I did that, but sold my R7 after 3 months due to the AF issues, lack of 3rd wheel, and the different ergonomics from the R5. Get the lens when possible. However, I note that many comparisons between the RF 200-800 and the RF 100-500 with the 1.4TC are favorable. (420-700 @ f/10.0)

    April 2024 Total Eclipse - Are you shooting?

    Not shooting. There will be so many shots of this on the internet, I see no reason to shoot it. I will watch it from my house with my dogs.(it will be partial where I am in MD.) Just not an interesting thing to me. I may photograph my dogs while the event is happening as the light changes. Will...

    Canon R5 Anticipation for R5 Mark II?

    If they dump the third wheel and make it like the R7 I won't buy it. I sold my R7 due to its poor AF compared to my R5 and my OM-1

    Full Frame RF 28-70 F2, a zoom of primes?

    Weighs about the same as a large stack of primes.

    DXO PureRaw 4 out this month?

    I can now say that I was a Beta Tester for PR4. The sharpening algorithm has been drastically improved. Preview is nice.

    Rumors R1 may be late

    There will be lots of hari-kari among Canon Execs in Japan if that's the case.

    LrC 31.2 is out

    Gave it some heavy use yesterday, and found no issues on a Wintel machine. Only issues I have had is with running some plug-ins that I am a Beta tester for. The non-Beta version of that plug-in works fine. (Guess that's why they have Beta testers. LOL)

    Full Frame Sigma 150-600 vs RF 100-500 vs RF 200-800

    If you think you get Sigma focus pulsing on the R5, the R7 will make you pull your hair out. (Tried a friends sigma on my R7.) Just sold my R7 to MPB. The R7 is a $1k camera and for that it's great, but R5/R6 is way better. Interestingly if you take the 7DMk II price at its intro (2014) and...

    Not it's not. I download to my desktop, then write to a dedicated card I have for FW upgrades. All updates, lenses and bodies are retained in my Canon folder on my hard drive.

    Canon R5 Anticipation for R5 Mark II?

    The quicker readout speed makes a faster electronic shutter possible for Stacked BSI CMOS models, plus allows for faster autofocus response for higher burst rates with autofocus. Stacked CMOS chips improve upon the BSI CMOS concept. They place components in a similar arrangement, but the design...

    Canon R5 Anticipation for R5 Mark II?

    To the OP: I have the R5, but also the OM-1. The QPAF and the BSI stacked sensor are winners. Hope the R5MkII goes that way. More important to me than a Mp bump.
