I am Jaybee and I live in Edinburgh Scotland. I am in my later years and have photography and walking as my hobby. My first camera many years ago was a Nikon, then I changed to Panasonic. Last year because I was finding it difficult to carry heavy gear I was advised by a salesperson in WEX to try the Canon EOS RF50 with the 100-400mm lens. The set up is so much lighter and easier for me to use as I do suffer from a problem with my back.
I have been reading some of the comments regarding the camera and its various lenses, interesting reading as I have thought about getting a 1.4 or a 2 extender but so far havn't taken the plunge. I have also got a Canon 24-105mm lens which is a good walkabout one. I will post a couple of photos from both. Meantime I will keep thinking about getting an extender.

    Fast, sharp, and lightweight! A great lens
    This is my main workhorse of a lens and I love it. It's very light weight (only around 2.3 lbs) lens. I've been able to hand-hold it for an event...
