Did you just delete a new thread??? I wrote a reply that had nowhere to go!

Sounded like a Windows 11 problem in the "phantom" thread.

Try running sfc /scannow, and if that fails, DISM, which you can read about on legit Windows forums online.

Also, Windows 11 occasionally has mysterious corruption issues within a folder, so you could try starting fresh with a new folder that is not within the existing, problematic folder.

Good luck!

I haven't delete anything.
Thank you for your advice. will try

Yes, RED has been doing this for over.a decade. Still camera manufacturers simply get away with prducing another entire body to sell.

The C700 has had a swappable sensor since its inception but we are supposed to take it to Canon.
You really can do it yourself but you would void the warranty and I doubt the owners of that type of camera ever would.

The scheduled firmware upgrade for Canon EOS R5 is in March 2024, according to Canon Hongkong Company Limited’s official website. The upgrade will add the support for the Power Zoom Adapter PZ-E2/E2B. May be version 1.9.x or 2.0.x.

Nice find! If the rumours of the R5II announcement are correct, that would mean the R5 gets that firmware update after the announcement of its successor.

I hope you can get back there again and use the tree the way you wanted. The shots you did get are nice though.

Thanks mate. I've been there so many times haha might be due for another drive out there.

Very nice shot. What happened to the snow?

It's been an odd fall. The snow's mostly gone. Last year at this time we'd had a month and a half of heavy snow on the ground.

Believe me, not as tired as we are about your endless whining.

Wow, you're here (13 nov 2023) since less then a month, and you're tired already of me? I feel I'm really annoying, sorry for that, I didn't want to be a whiner!

Well, I think the solution might just be to press the ignore button on me, so I won't bother you anymore, that's certain! Thank you again, and sorry for disturbing!

Heads up to my fellow Canon users that may be interested... I ordered the 100-300 lens on Cyber Monday (Nov 27) from the Canon USA website while it was on sale and I combined that sale offer with an additional 15% off from Rakuten and I got an extremely good and rare deal on this lens. Not only did I save thousands, but to my surprise I received the lens 5 days later (Dec 2).

I doubt most Americans can know the difference. In Japan, I bought a kind of croissant.that I thought it had a cherry sauce added before the very end and thought, it would be great for a breakfast treat. To my surprise it was ketchup! That's what I got for being too excited at the idea of the Japanese cherry sauce to read look at the description card!

Leica Q2 is just EXPENSIVE. Why not Fuji x100v or Canon R8 or RP with a pancake lens (EF 40mm or RF 28 mm)??

It's not "that" expensive....to many out there.

But in the examples you mentioned....the Fuji is not FF sensor, it is crop.
I believe the resolution of the Q2/Q3 sensor is quite a bit larger than the R8 and RP....the latter I believe is about 60MP?

So, it's not only a size thing...BUT, also the specs and performance at that small, small size you have to consider too.

Just a thought.

The changelog lists these 2 changes:

2. Fixes minor issues.

I have these Kiwifotos eye cups on my R6 Mark II's and really like them. They don't interfere with the proximity sensor or the flip-out screen, and I have a Newswear long lens rain cover. It was a neoprene opening that slides over the eye cup. It stays on the Kiwifoto eye cup, it doesn't stay on the Canon eye cup.

I meant a specific problem with a RF 100-500mm and your body. But, if they are problematic with two bodies, then it is the lens.

View attachment 213190

AlanF, agreed, however the same problem is common to both bodies which indicates the problem is with the lens I think. I’ll give it a thorough test tomorrow.

Since I was not previously a Canon shooter, I do not have, nor will I buy, any EF lenses and the necessary EF-RF adapter

Shocking to hear a professional make a statement like that.

Most professionals I know mostly care about: how much can I earn, for an outlay of how much money and how much time?

I can see a professional saying: "I do not have, nor will I buy, any equipment upon that will cost $X to own and operate unless I can earn $Y/year with it for Z years."

If you buy this 28-300L and an adapter used, and sell them used, $X is going to be a really small number. If you're a good buyer, you might be able to buy it for less than you can sell it.

The question of being a Canon shooter previously shouldn't enter into it.

I would advise against giving two fingers to a Brit as you might not get what you expect.

Ah, yes, "two great countries separated by a common language". It does appear that it is important to note which way the palm is facing.

Sometimes there is a bit more subtlety to British language than there is to American language.

Re: Currently I use the Canon consumer-grade 24-240mm

In the center, the 24-240 nearly matches the L-quality. I don’t shoot in the rain without a cover. L- lenses, IMO, are for professionals who do not have time to spend in the digital darkroom, and need to get their stuff out quickly. But, also IMO, when printing to 13 x 19 and viewing on a wall from 2-3 feet away, no non-photographer can tell the difference between a lens like the RF 24-240 and some L variant. And I HAVE THE time in the digital darkroom to fix anything that is a deficiency in the lens.

The phones are using quad Bayer arrays and extracting hi-res images (in spite of the tiny pixels), so it seems that a full decoded 45MP QPAF sensor would produce a similar increase (i.e. 180MP) in resolution with larger pixels. The resulting color resolution would probably be much like video with 4:2:0 coding, but that is the standard for a majority of video. At this point, LR classic even knows how to manage a 48MP RAW from the new iPhones, so not a huge stretch to see something similar on a Canon. The 3x3 shift in the high res mode recently introduced to the R5 also suggests that Canon my be exploring that path, since that shift pattern is very different from what others have been doing for high res modes.

To begin, the colors of typical CFAs are not the same colors emitted by our RGB screens, nor are they the same colors used by our CMYK printers. Further, the filters in a CFA are not so strong as to eliminate all but a narrow band of wavelengths from passing through. There's a lot of overlap between what is allowed to pass through the three different filters, just as there is a lot of overlap between our S-cones, M-cones, and L-cones to various wavelengths. If there was not this overlap, we couldn't use the results from our cameras to mimic the brain and create the perception of color.

Canon is at it again with this form factor and finding more ways to combat the most obscure heat problems you can imagine. Why heat is an issue, is aptly described in this part of the patent application. When a user takes a picture while holding a digital camera, image blur may occur in the

When I see a celebrity advertising a product, I wonder if it is less than mediocre. If you know almost nothing then you see the celebrity and think it must be good.

For $150, Sony Will Let You Add Custom Gridlines to Your a7 IV

Designed mainly for schools, photo studios, theme parks, and cruise ships.

Seems like a lot of money to charge for some grid lines.

Innovation!

As much as I’m no fan of winter, these shots makes me feel the serenity you’ve portrayed. Very nice.

I’m not sure IBIS would fit in the R8/RP body without making it a centimeter or so thicker.

I don’t know how thick the mechanics for it are with Canon, but for the much smaller sensor, Apple and I assume others, have gotten 3D IBIS into their phones. How does the thickness scale up? That’s the question.

The F55, which is a decade old(feels crazy to say that), has a global shutter CMOS sensor. And the Z750, which is a 2/3” 3-chip ENG camera, has global shutter CMOS sensors.

The Canon Rumors email newsletter is different from the article and confirms R1 QPAF rumors? The article doesn't say this at the moment.

The Camera Insider also have an article stating that the R1 will have QPAF: “Quad Pixel Autofocus Patent Appears: Feature to appear in the EOS R1 and likely the EOS R5 Mark II”.
