    Craig mentioned the 24 f/1.4 SSC. I watched a guy buy one of those in I think 1975. He paid for half of it with cash and put the other...

    That's in reference to EF lenses. RF lenses don't do that. No point in switching off IS for transport of an RF lens.

    Hi Pieter, thank you for the link to the article. I will read it. I recall, by the way, that in the past it was also advised via...

    As @neuroanatomist status: this is normal (I got quite a fright when I got my 100-500mm and saw the IS unit moving around). Canon has...

    You won't hear the clunk if you 'gently move the lens from left to right and back again'. You most likely will if you give it a decent...

    Thank you for providing some more clarity. By the way, I don't hear any clunking sound. I guess that is good. So I only see the elements...

    neuroanatomist replied to the thread RF100-400 question.
    Yes, that's normal. Some, but not all, RF lenses do that. My RF 100-400 does, as do my RF 100-500L, 70-200/2.8L and 100/2.8L Macro...

    I can back up what Neuro said from personal experience with the R7 + RF 100-400 and that OM setup (shhhh, don't tell anyone 😅).

    candyman posted the thread RF100-400 question in Canon Lenses.
    I hope someone who owns the RF 100-400 can help me out. Apparently, I'm having no luck with this lens (or maybe I am?). I bought the...

    Practically speaking, it will likely end up being a wash. The m4/3 sensor will have about 1/2 stop more image noise than the APS-C...

    If the R7Ii gets an R6 body with cooling it will most probably grow weight. The birding set up requires low weight. The Rf100-400 is...

    I got fed up waiting, and ordered a new RF 100-300mm f2.8L IS USM. Withe a doubler I get a 200-600mm f5.6, which is better than a...
