    Canon as a company does more than just consumer-facing stuff, hence is why I said it as an ironic gotcha to whoever thinks I was touting...

    Beautiful dog! :love:

    Meanwhile I'm still wishing Canon cramp R8's sensor into M6ii like body.

    I’m sure you’ve considered it, but the R7 probably focuses better than the X-T6 and can take the sigma 10-18mm and 18-50mm. If they can...

    Mostly portraits and candids, but not only portraits. The obvious use is photographing people from far enough away that you are not...

    I am a long time Canon user (1980’s) with R6 iii, r5 Ii and high quality wildlife lenses. That said, I hate dragging around FF gear for...

    I use it a lot in my video productions. Glowing Close ups and mid shots. I would presume it works great for fashion.

    YAPODFC. b4? Lol. I’d been using the above abbreviation for ‘yet another prediction of doom for Canon’ for well over a year when I...

    Maybe to generate more room for an 85mm? 50, 85, 105 ?
  • justaCanonuser
    Good question - why does Nikon still produce a Nikkor 105 mm and Sigma also a 105mm f/2.8 macro lens? No idea. I don't think that Canon...
  • justaCanonuser
    We still have three FM-2 bodies in our collection - it's a simpler successor (no option to change the prism for waist-level shooting)...

    When I was a salesman in a camera store back in the mid 80's (as far a you know, I was in kindergarden at the time... that's my story...

    Mhm, well it is doubtful unless a company like Canon reinvents itself it will keep making sense for more and more regular people to just...

    Doubtful.

    It would be an easy differentiator compared to the RF100 which is marketed towards the macro niche I don't think there is much more to it
  • Zadak
    What are you shooting with your 135? I bought it last summer and I used it literally just once. Just gathering dust
  • Rceres
    The EF 100mm f/2 was and is an underrated gem. I still use mine on the R5 II and, as noted here, it does have flaws: CA, some fringing...

    Well, the 70-200 was quite light. I shoot with the 7DII but my "trinity" was EFS10-22, EF24-105f/4L and EF100-400f/5.6L II, but I also...
