    Photographer and veteran Olympic shooter Jeff Cable is at the Olympics again, and he’s given us another behind-the-scenes look at...

    Ah I see. I haven't kept up because they weren't for the RF mount, thus dead to me. I was referring to Sigma's own website, which...

    The Sigma lens is still a current product for both E and L mounts, not discontinued. However as with most niche lenses they are produced...

    The ‘RE-1’ will be a plastic looking thing ;)

    As a dual ball head is needed, I found that the SUNWAYFOTO DT-03R 2 way tilt was much easier to use as normal ball heads are restricted...

    sweet. i had the original model of that - I see it's really gotten more advanced since then.

    Sorry to be that guy, but the Sony 14 1.8 gm is half the price, Definitely slower but he is actually under-estimating at being half the...

    Indeed, and Richard is likely correct. If they got a bad copy, I do hope they had a pre-production copy. But it seems odd that Canon...

    There is one aspect of f1.4 that you can't get elsewhere is that you can use a shorter exposure time irrespective of vignetting or coma...

    Gaffer tape is my goto solution for my Samyang. Can't move the aperture ring or the focus ring with it in place. No MF/AF switch of...

    I use the Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer Pro 2i as my tracker. Heavy but has some advantages over others and not too expensive. Dan does a...

    Thanks for the Cameralabs link. That sounds reassuring.

    Nothing yet... I currently have R3, and I feel upgrades for R1 don't justify the upgrade price. The biggest feature for me would be the...

    I think there was something wrong with that lens, and then they doubled down with some dubious workflow decisions.
  • Richard-CN
    what do you use for tracking?

    Please make it styled after the F-1 and not the AE-1. The AE-1 was plastic looking thing. The F-1 had much more classic styling...

    When trust is damaged, rebuilding it is hard. If they believed that it was appropriate to use the RF 16/2.8 profile to correct the RF...

    Canon did in fact create supertele DO lenses for RF - the 600 and 800 f/11. We can only speculate why they have thus far ignored the...

    Does the lobotomy come free when you buy a S*ny body or is it extra?

    I think Chris Niccolls and Jordan Drake did their testing with a production sample. Their astro image at the Okotoks Big Rock clearly...

    I think you will need to be careful comparing stars at each of the corners when trying to get a feel if the lens is properly aligned...

    I've been waiting for this lens ever since the RF lens system came out. I now have it on pre-order and am super-stoked to get it on my...

    Yipp, I was also thinking of stopping the RF 14/1.4 down to f/2.0 to get a vignette of 3EV which is OK for my panoramas of the aurora...

    It's pretty high, but also becoming the norm for such lenses. Interesting that the Sony 14/1.8 that 'that guy' loves so much he awards...
