Just testing this on the GFX100S, where it has enough coverage, but unlike the RF/Z mount versions has no ability to change the shift axis direction.
So either a showstopper or irrelevant.
Limited to ±8mm of shift, but that is impressive on a [small] MF sensor
Still need to see how it compares with my 2009 TS-E17

Uploaded quite a few [full res] examples to the MF forum at DPR
This gives a good feel for the coverage [hand held 3200 ISO ~f/6.7]

It looks like Lomography is looking to capture those that want to shoot film on a new camera, but want it to be well built. The new Lomo MC-A may be enticing to a lot of people. I think there will be a few more higher end 35mm film cameras trickle out in the next […]

"just about the easiest camera that they’ve taken apart."

Canon has long been working on automated/robotic camera manufacturing. A simple design means more robots and fewer humans during the assembly process, reducing costs.

It definitely makes sense that Canon is optimizing for robotic assembly to cut costs and improve consistency.

There was quite a bit of Ricoh-related news, so instead of one article for each would annoy Craig (though that sounds like a good reason to split it up, but I digress), I decided to lump it all together. But First, The Ricoh GR IV This camera was announced via Development Announcement on May 22nd […]

Anyone else notice the radio silence on the R7/II? I think Canon is at war internally between (I) those who see the R7 as an "any lens telextender" and want it to have a full-size R5 body and (II) those who have used the R7 as their main camera since it came out and just want a BSI/Stacked sensor with the controls left where they are. Two different audiences - and while group I may have more money to spend on each camera, group II represents more users - including me.

You have a nice theory, but very unlikely that it is correct. The design of a camera is a long process, decisions about size, layout and buttons of the R7 Mk II have been taken and implemented quite some time ago. These are not discussions/ decisions that take place in the last months before the release of a new camera.

The posts on DPReview and Petapixel have details about the process of designing an new camera:

I don't see the C200 on Japan's list. Where is your list pulled from? I have about 20 C200s and I send at least two of them in each year for some sort of repair or maintenance.

I switched to Sony a7riii from xt3 from 6d from 5dii* two years ago and hate the colors- love the resolution, I’m pining* for this re1 to bring me back to canon even if it’s with adapted ef. Hbu?

Yea Im just waiting and watching for a Canon a7c equivalent, or even just something R8 sized with IBIS.

If this lens holds up against the F1.4 VCM lenses... it would mean Canon is really overcharging us.

Click to expand...

Which company isn't overcharging? Canon, Sony, Sirui or Viltrox are no welfare organisations...They only want our best!

What will be the price point? It cant be as same as of xt 50

Nikon has created a new Instagram account for its Z mount cinema gear called ‘zcinema’ and immediately showed off an upcoming lineup of lenses that certainly are cinema in appearance, with what appears to be focus and iris (aperture) gearing. Nikon’s Aihara Takashi talked to DCW about this, and Nikon seems to be going all […]

I expect these lenses to be high end at mid end prices, around 5,000~6,000 US$ a piece, T1.5, very fast and silent AF capabilities using their new AF motors, top class image quality. They will want to appeal to photographers also hence the AF capability even if they come in more cine like packaging. My guess is that optically this is basically a full line up derived from the technologies used in the Noct/Plena lenses. Sort of SX lenses above the S line.

R6 III specs that I want:

1. Passive venting
2. C-Log 2
3. Improved IBIS
4. Tally light
5. Shutter angle setting
6. Full size HDMI port
7. Pricing at or under $2,700 USD

Things I don't care about as much (but they would be nice):

1. Higher pixel count
2. Higher dynamic range (certainly not a decrease though)
3. False color
4. Brighter LCD
5. Improved sensor speed
6. CF Express B
7. Open gate

I understand we probably will get less than what I want at a price higher than I am comfortable paying. Expectation readjustment likely to commence on November 6th.

The freeware app APT – Astro Photography Tool (free) worked for me when I tried it with DiG!C 6/6+ and DiG!C 5 processors. I have no idea if the shutter count feature works with DiG!C X cameras, but the app says it can be used to control all of the R series cameras for tethered astrophotography.

It's listed at this post from Camera Troll which aggregates several apps that can read the shutter count on various Canon cameras. The Camera Troll page is Swedish language, but Google translate works just fine to see it in English.








Thank you, you made my weekend. I was actually searching for a game online through which I can easily make money while sitting at home and I found Sweet Bonanza game and when I was looking for it online, I also found link to your post.

Thank you, you made my weekend.

I loved my EF 24-70mm f4L, it was my go to lens for walking around.

Nikon has announced the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50mm f/2.8 VR, which is Nikon’s first Z-mount APS-C (DX) zoom lens with a constant f/2.8 aperture. The Nikkor 16-50mm DX lens features a nine-blade aperture, optical image stabilization, and a customizable control ring. It also offers a minimum focus distance of 0.15m. Physically, the lens weighs 330g, […]

[...]I also had a lot of fun with Kai Wong and his nerdy companion Lok Cheung, but that's over since now about ten years. Afterwards, when they split and Kai W. went to UK, I lost more and more interest... I think it was their special show relationship as antagonists that made these presentations so entertaining.

Click to expand...

Lok is also in the UK now, they have teamed up a few times the past year.

Canon UK have just had my R5 for the past couple of weeks and returned it with no fault found. I've just messaged them tonight and have copied the message below because I'm sure some of you with more knowledge of the R5 may be able to point me in the direction of a solution. I'm sure its something simple I'm missing......

"My camera has just been returned from repair under ticket number: XXXXXX and it has the same issue that I sent it with. It may be something simple that I am missing but the issue is that I suddenly started getting the Blue focal spot when using any lens (100, 24-105, 70-200). I have checked and double checked that I am in One Shot AF and I'm using AV mode, so I am definately not in Servo. I should be getting the green confirmation as I have done for the past 3 years. I haven't altered any other settings, to my knowledge and have tried resetting the camera - to no avail. I've also checked all the lenses are in AF and not MF. What else can it be please?"

Thank you for any advice.

Cool portrait.

North Korea, China, Russia and the USA on the same list. Isn't this sheer madness?

The reality of my own experiences coming in and out of the USA is that it’s extremely unlikely they’ll want to see your phone. It’s never happened to me, my wife, or anyone else on line near me, so I think it’s pretty safe. But the problem is that you can’t be 100% certain. We’ll see what happens with everything when the orange man is gone.

Ah nice! The shop I always buy from only got one from their initial shipment. Then I looked at the bigger spots, Adorama and BNH and they don't look like they got any allotment of the lenses.

Impressive!!! Great photo!

There's usually a nice discount on refurbished around Black Friday, but some products can sell out extremely fast

We now have the RF 20mm f1.4L VCM, RF 24mm f1.4L VCM, RF 35mm f1.4L VCM, RF 50mm f1.4L VCM and the RF 85 mm f1.4L VCM. What additional focal lengths would you like to see?

I think potentially we will get a 28mm and rumours abound about a 14mm. However I think Canon has an opportunity between 50mm and 85mm as many true cinema lens sets have either a 65mm or a 75mm (both Cooke & Ziess have produced these focal lengths). Canon is not known for anything between a 50mm & 85mm but it would give a more linear set.

Hey all, quick question.. Ive never preordered anything from Canon. The pending transaction just went thru after over a month, but Ive heard absolutely nothing from Canon and the order status just says processing. I’m used to getting some sort of email saying your order status changed.

Anyone have any thoughts before I give Canon a call?

I have the R5 and tried to do video yesterday but the camera kept going to sleep during the video session. It's like it was timing out, usually within 3 to 5 minutes. Any idea's out there how to fix this? Sometimes I could tap the shutter button and it would wake up and other times it would not.
