    Yeah, people think that a TC should have minimal copy variation because they are relatively simple and have no moving parts. But, I've...

    You have an insight into what the profit margins are?

    A little surprising, considering it's made from carbon fibre!

    I'm not thrilled with the 100-300/2.8 + 2x, but I think my copy of the RF 2x is the main issue. Since I have the EF 600/4 II (that I use...

    Hve you tried the 100-300mm? 😅

    Maybe... RF 35mmF 1.2L pancake?

    And I think that Canon could sell the 100-300 at a profit for less than $5000, maybe less than $3500, but they have decided to go for...

    On a 600 mm f5.6 I would use a 1.4x TC for 840 mm f8 lens. With only the 1.4x TC the degradation of image quality should be minimal.

    EF 500mm f/4 ii is still on the "serviced" list. However, they haven't made lens hoods for that lens for ages, and it is the easiest...

    People complain the 100-300mm + 2X is not sharp at f/5.6. If the new lens was razor sharp all the way to 600mm wide open, that might...

    $12k or more. The chances of it being cheaper than the 100-300/2.8 that has the same front element size are very, very slim.

    Strange (in a very positive way) that this particular lens doesn't seem to suffer fron extender addition. This has been convincingly...

    A 300-600mm f5.6 lens with a price point closer to 2.5k would indeed be something. Especially since that is the price point of 100-500mm...

    If so it would be similar to the way the 2017 6D Mark II was very close, spec-wise, to the 2012 5D Mark III which was replaced by the...

    Canon led the mirrorless market for most of the EOS M era, just not the Full frame mirrorless market.

    Let's see, a catadioptric zoom with AF and IS and maybe a little DO thrown in for good measure. That would be small and light and...

    If the R7 Mark II turns out to be what many wished the R7 could have been, it will be a case of history repeating itself. The 7D Mark...

    @Click @ThomasTH thanks, guys!

    Let's just hope it's going to be an L lens with great IQ and we don't end up with something that is longer and faster than the 100-500...

    Sigma's 60-600/4.5-6.3 is not too far removed from that.
