An introduction hmmm let me think, I would class myself as an enthusiastic amateur and have used Canon for many years now the first being a 450D and prior to that I used to shoot film. I progressed from there with the 7D mk2 then the 5D mk4 before going mirrorless with the EOS R, now I have the R5 and all my glass is RF apart from one ranging from15-35 through to 100-500 oh and the 800mm F11. The other lens I have is the EF 24mm TSE which I use with the adapter mainly for architectural or real estate.

The plan is that when I retire in 18 months time I will have everything that I need to enjoy my passion, genres include portrait, landscape, architecture, real estate and aircraft. I look forward to enjoying the info and chat that will be on here.
 
Welcome Steve and thanks for joining up here and introducing yourself! Sounds like you have a nice collection for your retirement already! :) Which lens do you prefer using between the 100-500 and 800?

I prefer the 100-500 as you are not restricted by light as much, but I do enjoy the results from the 800 in good light.
 
Bought the 800 out of curiosity
