Great pictures. I like this one best, beautiful light on its head, catchlight in its eye and the tree’s bark as habitat and background...

No, because I am to lazy to carry a tripod! :eek:
:cool:

EOS 4 Life replied to the thread Canon to come out with a RF 100mm f/1.4 VCM?.
I see it as between the RF 85 f/1.2 and RF 135 f/1.8.
Although it would really just be part of a set of f/1.4 VCM lenses.
There is no...

Yeah, but…are they serious? ;)

Not with IS, unfortunately.

They do have a patent for an RF 150 f/1.4L IS.
Although the <$4K USD part is in question.

And with R5 + Laowa 60mm macro
And I could post thousands more...

Scientific macro, maybe.
But many outstanding "serious" macro shots were made handheld.
neuroanatomist replied to the thread Will it Finally Happen? A New Macro Lens Longer Than 100mm With Variable Magnification.
Are these 'great'? I don't know, but I'm happy with them. They were all handheld. The first two are the same mantis that was hanging out...

So? You think the lens will just levitate towards the tripod? It still needs to be carried in bags, airplanes and carried on the field...

I would love to see great hand held macro insect shots. Anyone here done that? Thx EDIT: Alive, active insects...

Aldherrian replied to the thread AI discussion: The end of photography as we know it.
It pains me to see it but a lot of people indeed don't realize already they're looking at product pictures made with AI even though some...
neuroanatomist replied to the thread Will it Finally Happen? A New Macro Lens Longer Than 100mm With Variable Magnification.
So no ‘serious macro photography’ involves moving insects, or specimens in the field left in situ? Well, you are welcome to YHO. I...
Exploreshootshare replied to the thread Will it Finally Happen? A New Macro Lens Longer Than 100mm With Variable Magnification.
I do/ did. I used to own the RF 100-400mm and I actually shot some butterflies with it in 2024. I gave the lens to my father-in-law...
koenkooi replied to the thread Will it Finally Happen? A New Macro Lens Longer Than 100mm With Variable Magnification.
I rarely use a tripod, even for focus stacks. I think >99% of my macro work is without a tripod, but apparently that means it is unserious.
koenkooi replied to the thread Will it Finally Happen? A New Macro Lens Longer Than 100mm With Variable Magnification.
A long macro, with decent AF would be very welcome! I enjoy using the EF180L, but the AF on that is glacial, making it harder to get the...
sanj replied to the thread Will it Finally Happen? A New Macro Lens Longer Than 100mm With Variable Magnification.
Why would anyone want a 'light' macro lens? IMHO, all serious macro photography happens on a tripod. And I have found that a longer...
eero replied to the thread AI discussion: The end of photography as we know it.
My guess is that in two years, no one - especially the consumers - will spot the difference between a real photo and AI, if the latter...

scyrene replied to the thread Will it Finally Happen? A New Macro Lens Longer Than 100mm With Variable Magnification.
Do consider the RF 100-400 too - it has good magnification (though not true macro) especially at the long end of the range. Butterflies...
