    That is indeed one of the things I am looking for. And better pre-capture would also be great, e.g. for insects taking off. I do hope...

    I use the RF 100-400 for butterflies and dragonflies and the RF 100 Macro for smaller insects. See my website...

    I see a tribal mask with it's tongue sticking out. But my new eyeglasses aren't due for a few more days.😉

    So what, pray tell, was the point of neuro's post #38 in this thread, which explicitly mocked a discussion of the advantages of an APS-C...

    No, it isn't. But you have that combination of a superiority complex, a (deliberate?) misconstruing of everything you read, and a...

    If the R7II has the stacked sensor that is mentioned in this rumor, the ability to use flash with electronic shutter and thus combine...

    Being fair isn’t being a hater. Canon Rumors actually has decent writers, not merely blind fanboys. I often find that Canon Rumors (CR)...

    Folks, I'm very curious to know how you guys make use of the SA Control. A bit of negative to smooth out the background a bit more...

    The R7 with the RF 100-400 is also very good for close up/near-macro photographing of insects in the wild. I use it for dragonflies and...

    Can we please go back to the topic. When discussing the R7 people often refer to bird and wildlife photographers. I am a macro and...

    Thank you. I was, in fact, a strong chess player in my youth, which was useful training for playing with pigeons. Though I now prefer to...

    Don't tell me you've never heard that expression. It means don't reject the good because it's not perfect. In this context, don't dump...

    Are you the perfect or the good? Or both?

    I'd like to add two dozen snipe to your 5000, @neuroanatomist.
