Or check local stores and grey import.... As far as I know there's excess of 200-800 in HK.

Panamoz is selling it for the exact price I can get it for locally

And here in the Netherlands a 200-800 pops up every now and then.

I'm sure the current version of the RF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS will likely flood the used market if and when an internal focus version of this lens is released.

Oh yeah... We'll have to build a new Noah's Ark just to save ourselves from that flood.

I just had this message from Atomos support: after they had assured me it worked with R5C I got this. Cancelling my order now.

Hello Mark,
Please accept my sincere apologies for any confusion about Canon R5C compatibility.

The Shinobi II does not support camera control for any Canon C-series cameras.
This includes the C70, C200, C300 III, C400, C500 II, and any other models with a C in front of them.
This is because the Canon Cinema line cameras, such as the C70, use a completely different control protocol than the Canon EOS mirrorless cameras, which the Shinobi II supports.

Your understanding will be greatly appreciated.

So if you wanted to add constructively to my comment, you could have pointed to the European chains that are expanding, and in which countries.

@Canon Rumors Guy did point to WEX, our major on-line retailer, is expanding bricks and mortar stores in the UK, and I can confirm they have opened one in my small city.

You must be living in a tech fantasy world. Tech moves and improves fast when it is new. As it matures, advances slow. Use a TV for a year or two and then throw it away? If that is what you do then you are obviously far more well off economically than the average consumer, but are apparently gullible to tech hype. I've been working on computers since the late 1980's. It was quite necessary to upgrade our computers frequently, perhaps every 2 to 3 years in those early days. Now it maybe 10 years - or more. I believe my company has upgraded my computer twice since 2000. And we are talking about an Engineering company that needs fairly high powered computers. The reality is that computers haven't changed much in the last decade or 12 years. Nor TVs. The same thing is happening in cameras. It's OK to want or be excited about the latest tech, but small minor advances are the reality for mature tech.

That is WAY too long to keep desktop computers for production, I've worked in the IT industry for 25 years and have never let equipment go more than 5 years without replacement. After 5 years the probability of a work-stoppage failure increases dramatically. I will only keep servers in production as long as I can maintain a 4-hour mission-critical warranty on them (hardware craps out the vendor has the replacement part to you within 4 hours), once I am told I have to go to a basic hardware warranty the server gets replaced. I also disagree that computers do not change that much, there are significant changes that go deeper than processor speeds and cores. I will concede the changes were perhaps a little more significant in the earlier days of computing.

The DTM is a full-contact sport. Or as a friend of mine puts it:

Friend said:
"The distances between the race cars or to the crash barriers have to be NEGATIVE."

The Schäffler BMW was touched by a competitor and his right fender took it badly.
Nice carbon splintering.
Later, he even lost his right headlight, triggering a safety car phase.
The DTM always has something to offer.

@100&270mm + cropping, f/11, 1/1600, ISO2000
last is a detail of the second, also a nice detail view of the exhaust

For me the R1 is a huge improvement over the R3 in many ways including the following:

1) Cross-type AF sensors on the entire area of the sensor.
2) Faster (1/400) second flash sync speed , which also translates into less rolling shutter artifacts.
3) At 40 fps one should have a buffer capable of shooting 1000 frames or more so a much larger buffer than the R3
4) A vast improved Eye Control AF System (should work with eyeglasses) and EVF (9.44 M dots x0.9 magnification).
5) Matching CFE Type B card slots. Not version 4, but that is okay.
6) Strap lug on the bottom of the camera; I really missed this feature on the R3.
7) Info button available on the vertical grip.

On the minus side the body is a bit heavier by 98 grams relative to the R3, but that is fine with me. For those of us with workflows that do not require more than 24 MP I could honestly see the R1 being a camera one uses until it stops functioning.

Not that it matters what I order or get but I will probably order both cameras as I have been offloading others. The comment you made about the R1 being a camera that one uses until it stops functioning is the key piece most seem to miss. I have owned 1dx’s and I love them because they just go and this camera which may lack on the spec side to some will be like a Toyota and just go till it dies which will take a long time. People forget that we are also paying for R&D and that cost gives us a tool that will last and endure.

Below is a video of a Pro Sony shooter comparing the R50 and the ZV-E10. He notes that the 10 bit HDR footage in the R50 is better than the Zv-E10 8 bit footage. But overall its the Sony ecosystem that has a ton of glass and accessories that makes it the top choice.

I think this is the issue with the R50. Its has great image quality at the right price but ins't marketed as a "Creator" camera with a ton of decent glass with wide apertures and other accessories.

Canon has opened up the apsc mount so maybe their will be afforable glass in the future but that will take some time.

Thanks Canon! Lets do it ;P ;P!

Mainly because of storage and partly because I want to shoot in H.265 and NOT in RAW. 8K oversampled 4K60p in C-Log2 would be almost as detailed as 8K footage but it wouldn't take up ridiculous amounts of storage.

35.1TB if you're recording 8K60p daily for about an hour for one month vs 5.4TB when you're shooting 8K oversampled 4K60p
421.2TB vs 64.8TB for a year

If you downsample and transcode the 8k to 4k in post, you could heat your home during winter with your computer

Classic catch. Sometimes I really question the intelligence of auto-correct.

It's interesting to see the divide between people who a priori hate any and every need for distortion correction and people that want to see the effect first. The former is certainly a valid position, especially for L series lenses, that were previously much better optically corrected than their non-L counterparts.

Since m4/3 has been doing this since forever, and usually in a way that, in most RAW converters, you cannot disable the corrections I predict that we'll be seeing a lot more of these lenses for full frame, from every manufacturer. I wasn't fond of such lenses, but after using the 15-30mm, 16mm and 28mm I have to say that I enjoy the reduced size and weight. DxO PR4 and Adobe Enhance can be used to get detail 'back'. I suspect that's mostly placebo effect since no one has disproved the assertion from @SwissFrank that (paraphrasing here) its impact can't be visually detected.

Yes, one only has to compare the EF 11-24 mm f4 size and weight with that of the RF 10-20 mm f4. I suspect most of the reduction comes from the RF mount’s shorter flange distance, enabling a less complex optical design, but the software distortion correction will have contributed to the reduction.

Ahhh. Since that’s for the R5II, I’d not expect it to be available before the camera. I’m not sure it will even fit the R5, it’s for the multifunction shoe.

Hi guys. This thread is many years old. Any new products in the market? I currently have 2 Drobos. Both are working fine but for obvious reasons I need to replace them. I need a simple storage system with Double Reduncy (Raid 1?). That's all. No need for NAS. Thank you! I hope that someone replies, or I may have to start a new thread....

It seems the firmware team didn’t look at cine firmware and never asked their coworkers for input. Or ran out of time and implemented the bare minimum.

I teach courses in the IT field and have worked in it for decades, you would be surprised at how often these teams of programmers do not elicit ideas from outside sources before writing their code and making features available to the end user. Those decisions generally come from management, unfortunately not all managers are good either.

Funny dumb American moment: I was looking at some more recent Jeff Cable blog entries, and I was noticing the ball in his shots was completely oblong, as though there was terrible rolling shutter. He mentioned he'd been using the R1. I was horrified at how terrible the rolling shutter seemed. Took me two minutes of closely looking at shots to remember that Rugby balls aren't round.

Jeff used the RF 100-300 f/2.8.
That pretty much tells us there was RF 200-500 f/4.
The RF 100-300 f/2.8 + 1.4 Extender seems to have replaced his EF 200-400 f/4 x 1.4.

No, not really.
Just an unobstantiated rumor.

If Canon goes the high MP route, I hope they keep the really high MP in a non-gripped body. For example, 60MP in the R1OMG and 82MP in the R5OMG.

I would very much like more megapixels for focus stacking, I can do that at f/2.8-f/5.6 to limit the influence of diffraction.
