Very nice B&W. Good composition. Welcome to CR.

With the occupied usb-c port, only option was to add a Pixel brand N3 wired/wireless trigger, with the receiver mounted on the cage next to the battery bank. Gaff tape the remote trigger on the side handle of the gimbal for push button REC.

Great idea!

"My main issue with the control scheme of the [Fuji] X half has to do with the cumbersome nature of the touch interface. If you swipe too quickly, the screen won’t register the movement, and often tapping the screen takes a couple of tries to get things going."

The next wait is for the dedicated RRS L-bracket. Neither the R3 nor the 1D X bracket are a flush fit (close, but not close enough). So it’s the generic BP-CS plate for now. I didn’t bother with their ‘universal’ L plate.

...and the wait is over. No preorder, RRS announced the base plate and modular L-bracket for the R1 today and it is now shipping.


Looks like they're not selling the upright portion separately as they've done before, you order either the base plate only ($95) or the full L-bracket ($255). I ordered the latter about 5 minutes after getting the email.

There should be one RF-S prime as well, hopefully before summer. Canon will probably not announce anything before price adjustments take place.

Tbh we need EF-M 22 & 32 into RF-S.... Canon is giving away to Sigma 24 & 30(and Yongnuo 35/1.8) is quite an un-Canon move

You can still use the camera in 1080p but not sure that actually saves on battery. Though I've heard this camera does run through batteries much faster than the previous models which has been my experience when renting it. I'm an R5 owner.

Victoria is one of my favorite cities in Canada. Very nice shots, dpc.

The SD Association is celebrating the 25th birthday of the beloved secure digital memory card. As you know the SD card took over the Compact Flash card in most small cameras in the mid 2000s and then crept all the way up to pro series cameras such as the EOS R5 series and the EOS R3.

how did you stack all of EF 2x III + EF 2x II + EF 1.4 III? I heard only EF 2x II have enough space on the back side to accommodate the protruding part of the other extenders, did you use an extension tube in between two of them?

Yes the smallest one from Canon

Glad you like it. In my case, I never seem to arrive at the best solution without going thru multiple learning curves. I received my Think Tank Photo Rolling Camera Backpack this week and it is spacious enough to hold my Canon R5 Mk-II + 1.4x TC + RF400 f2.8 setup with the original hood folded back, RF100-500mm lens, R5+RF24-105mmF4 and a RF16mmF2.8STM hidden under the 100-500. Total weight with additional batteries is 12.5 Kg. If I take out the smaller camera setup, it is slightly above the 10Kg weight limit of some of the airlines, but this will work fine traveling thru airports/trains.

I am able to fit the birding camera setup in my 28L Matador beast waterproof backpack comfortably during hikes. To be safe, I will have a raincover along as well. See the photos attached here. These two bags will be my travel bags moving forward.

I have ordered the sidemount version of the ProMediaGear Katana Jr gimbal head for my Peak Design carbon fiber tripod. Hope they get along well once the head arrives. I should be able to carry them in my Matador backpack as well.

I am really happy with this Matador 28L backpack, really light and waterproof as well (it worked well during the rain in the Itatiaia hills near Rio). I have probably hiked nearly 500 miles in the last 2.5 months in Brazil and Argentina with the R5Mk2+400mmf2.8+1.4xTC combo in this backpack. The backpack has withstood a lot of abuse in the process. And the Thinktank Rolling Photo Backpack has worked very well as carry on cabin baggage thru regional flights where they are concerned about the size and weight. It doesn't look bulky enough to make the gate agent asking you to check it in, even though it is around 12Kgs (more than the 10Kg limit). The backup plan is to move one body and the 100-500 lens to my backpack if they want me to weigh it.

I was experimenting with my RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM lens with R5. Great crested grebes and a couple of swans ready to nest.

This new TTArtisan RF 35mm f/1.4 tilt lens looks impressive for creative APS-C shooters. The tilt function opens up fun compositional possibilities, especially for miniature effects or enhanced depth of field control. It’s a solid tool for storytelling through visuals, similar to how writers shape narrative with help from the best essay service online. Tools don’t do the work alone, but they make a big difference when used with vision. Looking forward to seeing some sample shots soon.

Sounds like Tamron reversed engineered Canons RF 100-400mm and found a way to make it slightly better (spec wise and on paper)

That is the worst possible sensor to put in a video oriented body… The rolling shutter performance is horrible and it’s too high of resolution, hence the need for a crop in 4K60. That is a photo-centric sensor being crammed into a video focused body, and it makes no sense.

It is an odd choice for sure. I wonder if they tweaked it a bit to reduce rolling shutter (if that is even possible).

Hi all.

I recently obtained a "Sigma AF APO 500mm F/4.5" telephoto lens, its a Nikon F-mount so I have paired it with
the Nikon D70s body that I have used once or twice when covering landscapes.

I mainly shoot with Canon lens and camera bodies but couldn't pass up the opportunity when the lens was offered at $30 AU, on E-bay they retail second hand from $900-$1000AU

Hopefully I will get a chance to do some bird photography but will need to locate my monopod as they is definitely some weight with this lens.

Some questions out of curiosity:

1. Do you load the settings from a file, or enter everything manually?
2. Did you try doing only some of your settings one-by-one to figure out which one it could be?
3. Did you try a different card, and/or no card (set allow lens release without card to yes to try this).
4. Does it happen with all lenses you own, or are some fine? You say it occurs with 2 lenses so it's unlikely the lenses, maybe some don't have the issue.
5. Does it happen in airplane mode?
6. Are you using a fully charged and not super-old Canon battery?

The more you narrow it down yourself, the more likely it is Canon will be able to fix or actually try to reproduce it. It would be best to have a short and exact list of steps from a freshly factory reset camera that triggers it.

Believe me, having such a list of steps in writing makes a huge difference when it comes to resolving bug tickets. I know it's not your responsibility, but Canon CPS really seems rather lazy in your story.

To me it sounds like a bug where the camera is too slow and/or blocked by something and gets stuck temporarily. Like what used to happen when typing really fast in Word on a slow computer and you'd see the characters appear only after a few seconds.
