    No doubt, I actually own a phone that is over 5 years old, but 2019 was 7 years ago, and 2016 was 13 years ago. I'd say it's not a new...

    Roughly 3% of birds, primarily waterfowl such as ducks, geese, and swans, have an external phallus. cf. Leda and the Swan.

    Absolutelly. And I hope that STM focusing will keep improving if that's the road for future less expensive lenses. I don't know how it...

    28mm or the equivalent has a rather long history in photography, especially for reportage where it still gives a decently natural...

    Not everybody change their iphone every 3 years. But I do agree that there is a variety of reasons for why it is not a popular focal...

    And male birds are distinctly lacking anatomically to be a suitable paradigm.

    Why these vague statements instead of saying "we are still in the middle of contract negotiations"? I'm pretty sure there is plenty of...

    It seems that the RF 85/1.4L VCM is also VCM-only, without a Nano USM motor. Several online reviews state that it has both, but I can’t...
