But I see this lens as more of a travel lens, despite its ability to be used in studio. And that is where it has its most attraction for me. So small and light.

I agree to this point. On a trip to Europe this summer I used the RF24-105L for walking around. When I checked in Lightroom I discovered images between 35-70mm were less than 5% and typically I wished I had more wide angle than 24mm and often 105mm was not enough. With the 70-200 f4 being so small (not much different than 24-105 retracted) combined with a 14-35mm f4 in my shoulder bag would have worked out better. When I check my entire library, 35-70 falls under 1.5%, but that is partly because EF100-400 II is my most used lens and at high frame rates for outdoor water sports my kids are involved in. I’m almost convinced, but to justify it I need to sell the 24-105 because I try to keep a cap on total lenses since it’s a hobby only.

Not a 5D series but went from 7d2 to an R6. So I can speak to the differences in the body. Love both bodies but find no drawbacks to the r6 as far as ergonomics and functionality go. I still reserve the 7d2 for really inclement weather though as it is simply built like a tank whereas the r6 is not as weather sealed or bullet proof. The step up in AF is phenomenal and as a wildlife photographer it makes it a better camera despite the reduction on pixels on target. The improvement in sensor performance is astounding but the 7d2 was never an amazing performing sensor so that is no surprise. I don't do video so have never experienced the issues of overheating that many complain about. Had a few lockups initially but the FW updates fixed that fairly quickly.

Beautiful shot. Well done, Glenn.

Hi, the 8mm aperture on a FF Canon R5 does not look like a native 8mm fisheye lens due to some sensor crop.
Also this old but sharp lens is only F/4 while for astro (and a bit of landscape), I do need a much more bright lens, something btw F1,8 and 2,0 if possible....

I'm pretty sure you can overheat it with a blowtorch.

That might as well be the subtitle of the R6.

Why are people so excited about an aps-c camera that's gonna be bigger than the M system, both body and lenses? Why not just go full frame? I don't get it.

Cost. Birders. Sports. Etc.

Some other Canon logics:

Let’s make the R6, 20 mpixels - 2400 euro’s.
Let’s make the R3, 24 mpixels - 6000 euro’s.
Let’s make the R6II 24 mpixels ..

Wonder what R3 owners might feel right now.

I see Canon rebates-discounts on EF-M (as though they are getting ready for clearance?), and 3rd party Sigma and Rokinon EF-M lens, then this appears. I don't get it.

To come back to the OP's original question, I had an RF 24-105/4L become decentered. The Canon repair centre diagnosed a faulty IS module. Repair was about 2/3 the price of the lens.
I hope you simply have a faulty switch.

luisbelo · Oct 23, 2022

This is not a bug. When the subject in low light the camera will momentarily brighten up to acquire focus, and once it gets it, it goes back to the live preview, showing you how the photo will turn out.

It is cute though!

osx996 · Oct 20, 2022

I had to send my R5 in for assistance for some pixels burnt on the sensor and they told me that in addition to those, there are errors in the internal memory (??)

anything similar happened to anyone?

the R5 apart from the burnt pixels, seemed to work fine ...

Thanks

Fixes minor issues.

This is a truly awesome and wanted update. Never thought canon would do something like this. The fact that they just did this with a camera that has been out for a bit shows they are getting more committed to their base as the canon of old would just come out with a new camera with this feature. I wish they did audio with slow mo on this though. I have used a lot of cinema cameras and this camera is one of my favorites, what you get out of this compared to a red is hands down more reliable and gives you equal quality with better ergos

Anyone else buy an Arsenal 2? I bought one, and am having trouble getting it to do anything even close to as nice as in the promo stuff... Anyone else try one?

A lot of people still believe mRAW and sRAW are actually RAW and not debayered, downscaled TIFFs. So the purists would need to be informed purists

On some rumor sites some fake posting appeared. One rumor site that often got right information, posted thath the 7RV will be announced on October 26th.
Rumored, an AI-AF system will come - an gamechanging feature.[..]
