    i personally think the nikkor 7.5mm is the coolest lens ever. but i digress.

    The sensor has an internal IR cut filter. That needs to be removed to make a full spectrum camera. See...

    Nikon made about 440 of them, based on known serial numbers. I've seen perhaps 10 in person, one was brand new in its box. They came...

    The Canon ef 300mm F2.8 II is 248mm + 44mm for focal plane or 292mm, this patent application is around the same as that, and even a few...

    112 mm was a number floating around in my brain after a long day. Something one might see mentioned in a 100-300/2.8 spec sheet. A...

    One up the Sony 300mm GM, gearholics are desperate for arms race😂

    The length is in the patent. 296mm, subtract 20mm for the flange distance and it’s 276mm from front element to lens mount. Why a 112mm...

    Given the compact appearance of this lens, could this be a diffractive optics lens? Lens length from front element to rear filter...

    In 1981, Nikon made a few 300mm F2.0 lenses. Manual focus of course. I have seen pictures of these beasts, I think weighing in at over...

    Eh. I saw a few wildlife YouTubers who adore their R7s say they’re going to upgrade immediately. And commenters agreed. That’s what...

    My impression from YouTube is that customers adore the R10/R7 for wildlife and more, but they just don’t really care about using full...

    We have an interesting patent application (2026-004766) for you today. This is a patent for a Canon RF 300mm f/2.L IS USM. Now, as we...

    I suspect relatively few people upgrade incrementally within a line. The target market for the R6III is likely owners of 6-series DSLRs...

    Great shot

    Likely because their market data say there isn’t sufficient demand. Consider the EF-S 10-22mm (a very nice lens, IMO). Canon ‘updated’...

    Help me out here…. If there is no bayer/AA filter layer then isn’t it full spectrum by definition? Clearly the red filter makes it...

    Isn't the most logical assumption that those lenses didn't sell well enough (by whatever yardstick Canon uses internally), or at a high...

    Don't be presumptive. that's just a strawman argument. But what does make me wonder is why Canon haven't introduced an updated 10-22...

    Let them say it! It keeps them cheap for the rest of us. Anyway thanks for this comparison.

    To me Ricoh's GR IV Monochrome price appears far too expensive considering this is an APS-C sensor with 26MP and a fixed 28mm equivalent...

    I ask because I'm considering trading up to an R7, but not at the prices it's running at now. Do you think the R7 MKII will drop the...

    Yeah. I almost got an R7 for IBIS during home/travel video. But all the footage I've seen in video reviews looks jerky, like its...
