    General Full-Frame  R5/R6 Loose Hot Shoe Issue

    Hey all! I've been busy and not around much, but I'm going to try to pop in more often. I'd read on other forums about the known issue of the hot shoe working loose on the R5 and R6, with some actually breaking completely off. I use a speedlight almost daily on my R6 doing Fresh 48's, and...

    Popping in to Say Hi!

    I've been absent from the group for a while, and I miss it. I started working full time doing in-hospital newborn portraits, and it keeps me pretty busy. Unfortunately, per my contract, I'm unable to share any baby images due to HIPAA regulations. I've tried to keep up with RF Shooters on FB...

    Happy Camera Day!

    I saw it first as "National" Camera day, but when I Googled it, it was confirmed on India Today, so apparently it's not just here in the US. I try to make every day Camera Day, but I hope everyone got a chance to enjoy their cameras today and take some great photos.

    Calling to Order: the NEDAA (New Equipment Day Anxiety Anonymous) Meeting

    With a shout out to JP Davis for his thread regarding new lenses and Trevor Stevenson giving a name to the malady, I think there really IS a need for a support group. Today my dear husband, also a photographer, but who has been without a camera since he gave his to his son decides he wants to...

    Canon R6 I  My First Video with the R6

    I'm no videographer by a long shot. But I agreed to write a review in exchange for a voucher to buy a sample photobook. I was so impressed with the photobook, I decided to do a video instead of just writing the review and posting a photo. I haven't done any videos since my kids were little...

    Something Just for Fun

    I try to challenge myself regularly to increase my skills, as hopefully we all do. Yesterday the weather was horrid, and I noticed a lone bull thistle looking particularly nasty out in the back of our property. I set out to make this ugly bugger look nice in a photo. With today's equipment...

    Doggy Delivery

    I had taken a portrait of a client's beloved Australian Cattle Dog and she ordered a canvas. It came today and I made arrangements to deliver it to her house while she was away. Her dog, Mascara, was there to greet me, so I showed her the canvas. She looked at it close up, then sat down and...

    Jpeg Mini 3 Pro

    I know most of us end up taking a LOT of photos. I just finished processing several hundred over the weekend. File storage, especially unlimited, costs money, and I have yet to commit to one place online as I feel they all have their pros and cons. Consequently, I have files stored in...

    I just received notice that the ever-so-elusive RF 28-70 that has been out of stock everywhere is scheduled to be in my hot pudgy hands tomorrow! I'm not sure I'll be able to sleep tonight. :giggle:

    Canon R6 I  Tornado Aftermath

    A photo I took of a gas station canopy in Franklin, GA, that was torn from its supports by the tornado Thursday night. The building my son was working in took a direct hit and was heavily damaged, having two walls and part of the roof torn off. I'm not able to get in for photos due to...

    Pets  The Day After National Puppy Day

    I'd love to capture and post amazing canine action shots like some of you, but this is my sweet girl, doing what she does best - protecting the house from dreaded carpenter bees. It's her favorite pastime after eating and sleeping.

    Crowd-Funded a Kickstarter Camera Bag

    This looks to be a great bag for street photography or travel. I hate having to put my gear on the ground, and I have some very limiting back issues. Hopefully it'll turn out to be everything it's advertised to be. I'll report on it once it arrives. Top Shelf Camera Bag

    Full-Frame  Canon RF 85mm F1.2L USM Image Thread

    When trying to decide which first 'big' RF lens to buy for my R6, I was considering the 85 1.2, but couldn't find a lot of sample images to compare with all the other available lenses. What I did find blew me away, so I decided to go ahead and buy one. I'm hoping others with the lens will post...

    People  Testing the Water

    One of my first portraits with the R6 and RF 85mm f1.2. Nearly SOOC, resized for www. Could use some cropping to remove the car and yellow post, and trim bottom margin, but I thought I'd post it as is for 'educational purposes.' 😁

    Another RF Fan

    First, thank you to Admin for allowing me to join. I am currently in Atlanta as of 2016 but before that, I lived in WA State. My husband bought me an R6 for my birthday in October and it was my introduction to mirrorless. I'll admit it's taken me a while to get used to, but I'm finally...
