    Yet, you cannot resist replying. You're like some sort of bot. Push buttons, get reply. It's very entertaining, I must say. Your...

    Just to add, though Nikon didn't make a 1200/5.6 with a built-in 1.4x TC, they did come out with a basically equivalent version as a...

    omg, how heavy was this lens? According to google AI, it was 16,8 kg. Instead of a tripod one should have probably used a golf cart...

    neuroanatomist replied to the thread Buyer's Guide v1.0.
    Shaping up nicely! Under lenses, perhaps a set of buttons to restrict by manufacturer?

    That's higher end, I think he meant the old gold rings, and the best modern silver rings, like the EF 35mm f/2 IS USM, and EF 24 and...

    It would leave a TS-R 14mm lens on my wishlist. Plus whatever else Canon may come up with, I did not expect the 20/1.4 or 14/1.4 VCM...

    A 600mm f4 with a built in 1.4 extender would leave only a long RF macrolens on my RF lens wishlist.
  • neuroanatomist
    Yes, and it only took Nikon 9 years to innovate that switchable 1.4x TC, after Canon launched the EF 200-400mm with that feature in...

    You might feel differently if you owned one or more of these... Oh, they're still around. And even though the front element of my...

    Not two TC, but Nikkor Z 600mm f/4 TC VR S is something Canon should have made long ago...

    Hopeful. I always thought the RF 50 STM and 85 F2 IS were awkward and out of place -- not in line with other manufacturers offerings...
  • neuroanatomist
    Highly doubtful. One set of flip-out 1.4x elements, yes. Two sets of them, no.

    An RF 600mm f/4L IS USM Extender 1.4×?

    A 600mm with a built in 1.4 and 2.0 would be a "hold my beer" moment and probably break the internet :) Is there any lens around with...

    Well, it's April and technically it's spring now. I thought we were done with snow in Boston, as did the tiger lilies that are pushing...

    Obviously, you thought about changing it after I pointed out how asinine and irrelevant your statements were. Many of us have figured...

    Nicely done, danfaz.

    I use to have the same use case as well. Great lens for hiking, low light, close ups (e.g. cherry blossoms) and then of course portraits...

    I'm good with the RF 45, but I'm sure some would appreciate a higher end 50/55mm f/1.8 lens, similar to Sony's 55mm f/1.8 ZA, with...

    Can you provide an example? Canon does that on the wide end, but not for telephoto. If you are referring to Nikon lenses with built-in...
