    Interesting Canon Senor Shift IS Patent

    Found on Egami via Photorumors: http://photorumors.com/2016/03/13/the-latest-patents-from-sony-and-canon/ Appears to relate to using full frame lenses with sensor based IS to allow greater stabilisation on APS-C bodies. They're probably thinking of movie shooters shooting handheld in place of...

    The real problem with Canon sensor technology?

    Everyone is raving about the BSI sensor on the A7r ii; whilst it is yet another visible step forwards in Sony sensor technology, I don't think that the much vaulted BSI is really such a game changer. It's been said by others before, but the fill factor advantage isn't nearly as important on full...

    Cheating - feeling guilty...

    I feel a little guilty, I've started to cheat. It's not like there's anything wrong with her, she's still as beautiful as ever, it's just that I've started to notice things about her that hadn't bothered me before. You see, how do you put this politely, she's a bit heavy and indiscrete...

    Roger Cicala's initial Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Art results

    He's done some multiple sample tests against the Zeiss Otus and Canon 50mm f/1.2L, though he isn't confident enough in his sample size to give too many definitive conclusions (he only tested seven ;) )! http://www.lensrentals.com/blog

    24-70 f/2.8 L II front coating peeling off?

    I have a friend whose 24-70 f/2.8 L II is currently with Canon, as the front coating appears to be separating from the glass of the front element. Has anyone else experienced anything like this with any of their lenses and if so, how did Canon respond?

    Canon EOS 5D Mk III handling annoyances

    I’ve owned the 5D Mk III for about nine moths, so I'm using it as an example, but these issues apply to a greater or lesser degree to all the mid-range bodies. I am aware the others have made most of these points before, but I still wish to add my (albeit humble) voice to their cause. [list...
