Hi from Alberta, Canada

[lostnomore]

Hi everyone, I bought my first RF gear back in July 2022, re-joining Canon after first having owned an Elan IIE film SLR from 1996-2002 before I went with my first digital camera. So yeah, I'm back in the Canon "fold" I guess you could say.

Welcome to the group. I am also new here and I also started my Canon life with an Elan IIE in the late 90's.

The R6 and I splurged on the RF 24-70 f2.8 with no regrets! I also just picked up a RF 50mm f1.8 ... just because - why NOT own a "nifty fifty"?

Interesting! That was a great camera and the eye AF actually worked really well. I think all 5 AF points?

I remember it only having 3 AF points, but it could have been 5. It was a long time ago. But I do remember always using it and can't remember being frustrated or annoyed with it.
