It's the second card. I posted a thread on it, as implied by @P-visie. Either have a V90 in the second slot or leave it empty.

I did not get the email from Canon USA, but it's a legit issue and can be resolved by downloading the current version.

I hadn't thought it would come to this already, but three weeks ago I sold my M6II and M5 with the various lenses. And that's because I'm using the R8 more now. So it has taken over. It's indeed a very good camera and nicely compact.

My M6II has the MP-E65mm and is next to the focus stacking rail, it's hard to beat 32MP in APS-C for tiny subjects!

Is there already some news on when canon comes with new compact camera's??

Canon SX750 HS — Rumored Specifications

The Canon SX750 HS is expected to succeed the aging SX740 HS (Amazon | B&H Photo | Adorama), which launched back in 2018. Its predecessor offered a 20.3-megapixel sensor and a 40× optical zoom (24–960 mm equivalent). While impressive, technology has moved on, and users now expect better image processing, stabilization, and higher-quality 4K video.
Rumors indicate Canon will keep the same pocket-friendly form factor but completely redesign the internal hardware. Here’s what enthusiasts hope to see:

Feature	Rumored / Desired
Sensor	1/2.3-inch or larger sensor with improved dynamic range
Processor	DIGIC X image processor
Lens	Extended zoom (45× or 50×), better optical quality
Autofocus	Faster hybrid AF or simplified Dual Pixel AF
Stabilization	Advanced optical IS for handheld telephoto shooting
Video	4K 60 fps with crop reduction
Display	Articulated screen for vlogging and selfies
Connectivity	USB-C charging and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth
Battery	Improved life and heat management

With its extended zoom and 4K capabilities, the SX750 HS could once again become a favorite travel companion for those who want reach and convenience without carrying a large camera.

I also want a high end super zoom that can be wide angle, do well in low light, etc. The specs rumored below to me would be good, although it would be better if the zoom was more than 20X A new 750 would be great as I would assume it would have a 40X zoom! I would pay the money based on how well they can enable it to do wide angle, low light, yet still have a massive zoom.

Rumored Canon V3 Specifications:

Sensor: 1.4-inch 22.4-megapixel CMOS sensor (likely the same as the V1/R7).

Lens: 20x optical zoom (approx. 24-480mm or 24-500mm 35mm equivalent).

Viewfinder: Built-in electronic viewfinder (EVF) expected for a better shooting experience.

Design & Handling: Deeper hand grip and more robust body, prioritizing a compact stills camera over a dedicated vlogging tool.

Performance: Likely to feature 8-stop image stabilization.

Video: Potential for 4K capabilities, but likely without active cooling.

Release Date: Targeted for the fourth quarter of 2025.

The V3 is rumored to act as a modern, compact successor to cameras like the Canon G3X or SX740HS, designed to appeal to photographers needing portability and high-powered zoom.

Still hoping for a good zoom range like 20 or 30x like the hs740 but with a bigger sensor, and most of all with raw and not only jpeg.
And maybe with an evf.

Still hoping for a compact camera that can replace my Sony hx60, i love this little camera its my daily camera.

I agree! I am ready to immediately purchase a SX750 HS if it has anything close to the rumored specs!

Enough new super zooms? The only one i know that is the tz99 of last year of Panasonic...
Sony doesn't have super zooms anymore and all other super zooms are pretty old.

There is definitely NOT enough super zooms! I have been hoping for a new SX750 HS as I want something that has the same or more zoom than the TX99 but with better quality low light and camera picture ability. I have no problem paying $1k to $2K depending on the specs. The SX740 is so old yet it is selling for way more than it sold new, clearly the demand is there for a powerful compact superzoom that can do things a phone cannot....

MISTAKENIDENTITY · Tuesday at 8:26 PM

There were rumors on DPREVIEW a long time ago when the 28mm was released that there *might* be a series of pancake lenses... Apparently Canon has the tech to do it. Maybe the 85 on the homepage right now is related to that??

candyman · Tuesday at 12:22 PM

How about that. My order (9) will arrive in 2 days. Maybe a sign that my pre-ordered RF 20-50 will arrive soon too.

Lovely shots. I especially like the B&W.

Thanks for the comment.

I've never taken a photo and made it black and white but thought it was a good subject (castle) to have a go. I also added the effect of old glass over the photo that gave it a slightly old look which I think helps (to me anyway), below is photo in B&W without the old glass effect

shadowsports · Jun 21, 2026

Thanks @Click
I shot these from a boat. While I captured stationary subjects easily, I couldn't get BIF regardless of shutter speed. There was a 15 mph cross wind that I could not overcome.

You would be surprised how many people are buying the R100 because the R50 is too expensive for them.

Those people prob arent buying any extra lenses.

I just dont see the point in making the 50 1.8 unnecessarily bad. Canon is capable of making it better, and given how popular it is, they should.

Znie to zaujímavo, ale demo fotky I agree... unfortunately sample pics from Nikon version are far better? why? micro contrast 3 pop

Celts88 · Jun 20, 2026

I'm a complete novice at this stuff and when we were last back in Scotland (I've lived in Oz since 1988) when my Mum passed away we stayed overnight at Tarbert (nice small fishing village about 1 hour drive from Loch Lomond) to get away from things for a break. My wife was shopping one morning so I decided to go for a walk (bugger going shopping) and just above the town was the ruins of the local castle.

First photo is the original photo, and 2nd is after tweaking in DXO Photolab / Nik Collections (yes, some may say cheating but first time I've ever turned a photo into B&W). No particular reason for using the 28-70 f2 for this shot other than the fact it happened to be on my camera at the time I went for a walk.

PS - didn't know which place to post this, so also duplicated post in the 28-70 f2 thread, mods can delete either if in the wrong place.

Celts88 · Jun 20, 2026

Ordinary Filmmaker saying the RF 400 f2.8 and 600 f4.0 are definitely coming with TC incorporated, to be announced probably this October and come out later in 2027.

Today some of my colleagues asked if I have photos of the Jackson Chameleon. I found only two specimens... In the film era I had several, I would be very disappointed if their population is in crisis! Yeah, I know they are invasive but they are still interesting addition to the local "flora" (fauna if you prefer )!
First specimen (the same individual) is from 2017, the baby is from 2021 and they are the very last I have seen!
Looking for the Chameleons in my folder "Reptiles and Amphibians" I found a photo that didn't made any sense for saving until I found the sequence ! Look at the second one (I posted the first in my previous post). And adding one more for compensation...

I was riding in the car to go birding. Saw the fox on the side of the road so the driver pulled over, in a very dangerous spot (only gave me about 20 seconds). I reached over got out my big lens and took a pic as the fox was running past me. I did not have time to check camera settings and obviously the shutter speed was way too low. I got lucky that I tracked the kit well and the result is its face was ok but everything else a blur.

Fortunately the speed was pretty good

! It's what made this photo really interesting!!

Hi Robi!

Thanks for the insight! Sounds logical to me!

Concerning the quality: I'm usually a pixel-peeper, but Canons restrictions on 3rd party lenses makes it VERY difficult to find optimized lenses for niche markets like 'astro'. I have the good 'astro' lenses for the EF mount, and the 'astro' niche is probably too small for Canon to produce a lens for it. So far this X/Y/Z 14/2.8 lens is relatively well suitable for 'astro' (it's not a top-astro lens, but still a good one) and relatively light (backpacking etc.). So far, only Zeiss is producing manual high-quality RF lenses, but with a very limited selection and no 14mm or 24mm lens yet.

Can I have M-RAW or M-cRAW?

There have not been any cameras since CR2 was replaced by CR3 that have M-Raw, S-Raw, or any other kind of reduced resolution "raw".

In general, shutter speed is your first choice to prevent blur, both for the camera and the subject. IBIS can help with camera motion, particularly when you cannot use a faster shutter speed. It also helps us older photographers with hands that aren't as steady as they used to be.

Forum member @drmikeinpdx has some experience in the boudoir realm. He may be able to offer some recommendations here. Check out his prior forum posts and work at https://www.beyondboudoirphoto.com/.

Depending on your situation, you may find a single 50mm lens somewhat limiting. I've taken portraits in a variety of situations for family and organizations that I'm involved with. I started with an FD 35-105 back in my film days, then transitioned to the EF 24-105 f/4 L before moving to the faster EF/RF lenses. Depending on the location, lighting, and background/bokeh I want to achieve, I use a fast 85, 135, 24-70, or 70-200 these days - shorter lenses indoors, longer lenses outdoors. I never had the need for a fast 50 in my shooting - I almost always had enough room to step back and use the 85. It really depends on the perspective you are trying to achieve.

My portraiture has improved more through technique and practice than specific lenses. I shot both handheld and with a tripod. I often use a remote shutter release with the tripod so the subject looks at me. I found that it can give a more natural expression than looking at the camera.

Thanks for the input

The 50 mmF1.2L isnt going to be the only lens, but im thinking that getting a good lens that you use 80% of the time. Then of cource some other options on the side. Maybe the 35mm F1.8 IS and 85mm F2 IS. Most portraitshoots will be inside my appartment, with a room or a part of my livingroom with a backdrop and studioflash. The boudoir in a bedroom with size 3 meters x 4 meters, so im thinking 35 or 50 would work best there. Good low light performance and sharpness would be beneficial.

I was about to reply with "My R8 disagrees"

My R5 C disagrees.
It would also be a perfect lens for the C400 or RED V-Raptor.

I do wonder how diffraction in practice seems to be less of an issue for higher mp sensors than the maths would indicate.

You can only see diffraction at the DLA if the display is large enough to see individual pixels. In other words, viewing on a monitor at 100% with pixel pitch of less than around 144 ppi if viewing at 24" distance with 20/20 vision.
