    More flowers from today: I didn't see any bird deserving to be on photo.

    The Goldcrest is Europe's smallest bird, weighing in at 5.5g/0.2oz. The Firecrest, which I saw yesterday, is very close in weight and...

    IMO, sometimes the ‘one lens solution’ is the best tool for the job. For me, when the ‘job’ is a family trip where I want good quality...

    Cute little ball of feathers. Nicely done, Alan.

    I went back to the same spot as I saw a Firecrest yesterday, this time armed with the RF 100-500mm as the conditions were so dire...

    Checking travel pics from last summer, I realized I shoot so much landscape at 200mm this won't make it. Also in cities and with people...

    ISv and Speedfinder, Very nice shots, guys.

    Would be much nicer to have something like 70-180 (closer to the 200mm and maybe less wide if it makes the lens easier to design). But I...

    It would likely depend on the comparison. For example, I’m not sure that comparing the digitally corrected corners of the inexpensive RF...

    I agree, i mostly just use the 14-35mm or 24-105 f4 for hiking with the 100-500 in the bag(its to heavy to have on your neck while...

    I wrote "optimal" to give the upper limit. Under suboptimal conditions, you still get varying degrees of extra resolution, from nearly...

    The light that is digitally corrected to fill the corners when required still falls on the sensor. The difference is that I’ve provided...

    Still waiting for Canon to develop a 17-55 2.8 equivalent in RF. That's been my favourite walk-around if I didn't have the 24-105...

    It's the "optimal conditions" that's the issue. Diffraction limiting will start early on an APSC with ~39Mpx. That's just under 3 micron...
  • S
    Yes but only really if the birds are moving (I've generally only done perched/static bird shots so it wouldn't be an issue).

    For city trips, I take the R5 along with the 14-35mm F4 L and the 70-200mm F4, sometimes a fast prime. For hiking, it depends on the...
