    I hope you will find someone. The 600/4 ii is too good, too new and still too expensive to write off. Of the ones suggested by Gemini...

    I'm not sure why, this site has long been critical of a lot of Canon products and commercial decisions.

    DPP is absolutely cr*p at high noise reduction. It's using decades old technology (and that's not an exaggeration), which is iinadequate...

    As has been pointed out not all lenses allow FTM. You can assign the AF-On button to 'AF-off'. Or you can try programming 'registerAF...

    Any lens that surpasses the legendary Zeiss 21mm is a total win.

    And just let the usual whiners criticise it's a software corrected lens. I tested one, and must say it is visibly better than my...

    It's difficult to make a very good ultra-wide, especially one that is considerably faster than 2.8. The 20mm VCM was such a...

    I was tempted to put in the Sigma 200/2 - it was close as the runner up.

    meh, sorry, i didn't like the 45mm f1.2 - it's a very specialized lens that you have to like the look out of the lens. if you don't...
