    I looked into masks some time ago but the problem I have is that it makes the process more complicated rather than less. Focus on Stars...

    If you want to focus correctly for astro work, you can’t do better than a bahtinov mask. Use the rear screen to zoom in to a bright star...

    Are you sure that the Sony A7CR is a stop better? and compared to what? I just compared it to the R5 and the R5 looked better to me in...

    I guess your choices are: Ebay Local dealer who buys second-hand kit (in the UK there are loads e.g. Wex, LCE: assume there must be...

    Assuming that’s true (I’m not familiar with the noise data on the Sony, sorry) it would cost me £4000 (approx) to buy that lens/body...

    Sorry to be that guy, but the Sony 14 1.8 gm is half the price, 2/3 the weight, smaller and famously has (almost) no aberrations wide...
  • benperrin
    Yes, something like that would be fantastic. Although I have to say that at least Canon has a good zoom in ratio on the R5 and other...

    maybe constrast detect and the smallest point source? but a hard and/or fixed infinity stop would be problematic for sure.

    Our calculator takes into account resolution (or more accurately, the pixel pitch) as well as the target declination. Writing up the...

    Most lenses can focus beyond infinity (insert Buzz Lightyear motto here, if you like), because the position of the focusing group(s) for...

    I had thought PetaPixel was reasonably reputable. The wrong profile, and one for a relatively cheap, 2-stop slower non-L lens. He also...
  • benperrin
    One thing about these calculators that people seem to miss is that resolution plays a part. It really does seem like 8 seconds is a good...

    It's been over a week since Canon announced the Canon RF 14mm f/1.4, and much has been read, said, and debated over this relatively...

    By reason: it's very windy in the last several days!

    Of course I can live with a R5 body, as I am doing now. If they will release a higher mp R5 I will seriously consider it. I would still...

    Better the LP-E17P, plutonium battery. Much lighter than the original and it puts out up to 1 kW in perpetuity :ROFLMAO: .

    I'm in this dilemma. I'm actually considering trading my R50V for an R7I or a future R10II and some feature dilemmas I'm facing are: -...
  • AlanF
    I prefer it to be in the 5-series. At least one of us will be happy if they do make a higher resolution sensor in one of the series!

    I had to google the meaning of your explanation and the words "equisolid" and "equidistant", but it was fun reading about it!: thx :)
  • Exploreshootshare
    Agreed. Agreed again. If Canon sells off the current R7s, then yes, R10ii will have its place. In this regard, Canons timeline makes...
  • Exploreshootshare
    Nope, not an R9. I figure the R9 is reserved for an entry level full frame camera IF Canon decides they need one more model beneath the...

    I would love that. Especially if they can price it below the R7I.
  • roby17269
    I agree with you. Sadly, since I do not personally like it, but I think you are right more likely than not
  • neuroanatomist
    Canon knows how much profit they made from 5Ds/5DsR bodies, compared to the 1Ds series. If we see another 'high MP' body (i.e...

    There is different “colour science” for portraits (skin tone warmth) and for nature (correct biological colour). Maybe the R5 series is...
