Is it possible for the IBIS to move at 1/400th shutter speed while walking? I've been suspicious for a while but I just did a real test where it became clear that with stitching on (IBIS+RF 24-70 2.8), the image becomes blurry when walking. My camera is an R6 Mark II and I use an EFCS shutter.
The attached pictures show three consecutive photos taken while walking, with continuous focus on the wheel (Camera: R6 Mark II, Lens: RF 24-70 2.8, Focal length: 70mm, Aperture: f/5, Shutter: 1/400th). Only one of the three is sharp, the rest are blurred.
Has anyone experienced this? With R5 I think it's pretty much the same.

Thanks in advance.

It was inevitable. Canon USA has officially increased pricing on most cameras and lenses. There will probably be a period of time that some stores may be selling gear at the pre-tariff price increases.

Do you need a DSLR to drive an EF lens?
Or even a camera?
No...
Canon EF/EF-S lenses, meet Raspberry Pi!

If Canon does bring such new lenses to production, how will they differ from the current TS-E range and how do they bring tilt, shift, image stabilisation and autofocus under camera control? More to the point, how can they be used and what can be done with them?

I’m considering one of these brands for their snappy convenience—any thoughts on which is best? Right now, the NiSi system is standing out for me. It looks ideal for landscape work, especially since it lets you snap on 100mm graduated ND filters while also combining them with their circular filters. From what I can tell, Kase doesn’t offer quite the same level of flexibility with that setup.

Canon's EOS R1 has been a hit across the board for a flagship camera. The initial reactions from the usual suspects wasn't all that positive, but people that have the use case and don't pay attention to the hyperbole knew how good it was from the start.

Good morning, I want to buy the Canon SELPHY QX20 and I want to know if from the SELPHY Photo Layout application it is possible to print in 3:2 format without cropping or resizing. I have an EOS R10 camera and I want to be able to print my photos without losing part of it as it happens in the Instax.

The only thing that keeps me from buying it is the inability to find that my photos won't be resized or cropped when printed.

Thanks!

The stuff that hits our inbox about the Canon EOS R7 Mark II are all over the place. It's been a while since we've had a hard time parsing wishlists with what might actually be true.

External zoom lenses are brilliant for travel. Lightweight, compact, and generally more affordable. But take them anywhere dusty, wet, or windy, and they start acting like little vacuums, sucking in every bit of moisture and muck. And that, my friends, is where the problems begin.

It looks like Canon is continuing its R&D into shrinking lenses as much as possible, we have seen multiple patents dealing with the size of lenses, and we've seen some small full-frame lenses over the last year such as the RF 28-70mm f/2.8L IS STM and RF 16-28mm f/2.8L IS STM.

20/1.4 is my preference for astrophotography. Since it appears Sigma will not be allowed to produce a 20/1.4 for the RF mount, I am considering purchasing a Sigma BF and Sigma 20/1.4, specifically for astrophotography.

From SAR. Crazy rumor site, but among the noise sometimes reliable rumors. Which this sounds like it is.
Sounds like the Sigma APS-C lenses are coming to E/X/L/RF mounts, with announcement on June 17th.

The 17-40mm/f1.8 might not be wide (or long) enough to be the replacement for the EF-S 15-85mm that I'm waiting for. But f/1.8 Maybe I should have a second standard-zoom?!
And a 12mm/f1.4... Perfect for astro photography if I ever manage to get started on that?

Canon has been working hard to design more compact autofocus lenses that move quickly and quietly without sacrificing image quality. That’s no easy task, especially when you're trying to control large lens elements like those found in the RF 100–500mm f/4.5–7.1L IS USM.
