I’m rationalising my modern kit to Voigt 20, Canon 24 IS & 50, and what? I’m selling the great but heavy 70-300L, should I look for one of the newer plastic fantastic zooms, or maybe a 100 or 135 prime for a bit of speed. I have 6D & 100D bodies giving me 20/24/50/??? on full frame and crop...

My Canon 70-300L has sadly been taken from my house along with some of my long term vintage bodies and lenses. My big (for me) white is recognisable by missing paint on the underside close to the mount. There is also a Canon W-II foot fitted. When taken it was in a black soft padded Think Tank...

Early next year I will be flying to Sydney with a fuel stop at Dubai. I have been to Sydney before, but the fuel stop was at Singapore. Can anyone who knows that journey recommend a suitable lens for capturing the Dubai skyline on the descent and then the climb back into the sky? Would a...

http://www.thephoblographer.com/2014/11/25/review-canon-mr-14ex-ii-macro-ring-flash/#more-67864 I have a 50 macro, and I'm planning to buy a 100L as soon as funds allow. Should I be tempted by this as both a macro flash, and also for use as a standard (albeit low powered) flash to save me...

http://www.amateurphotographer.co.uk/reviews/dslrs/canon-eos-7d-mark-ii-review I haven't read it yet, just spotted.

I have just received a 15% off promotion from Amazon. In particular the 50/1.4 is cheaper than I remember seeing it before in the UK, even before the 15% discount is applied at checkout. Does that mean that fans of the classic 50 prime are finally going to have a modern option...

At risk of stirring up controversy ... Earlier in the summer, I went out onto the Greenway in East London and took some photos of the city skyline some miles away. I was using my cheap second hand stop-gap Vivitar 70-300mm, and the skyscrapers on the horizon were somewhat hazy. When I get back...

Several lenses I have been saving up for have gone up in price at all UK retailers that I have checked, including Calumet, Wex, Jessops and John Lewis. Examples include £30 on a 100/2.8L, £100 on a 70-200/4L IS, and similar amounts on the 24/1.4L II amongst others. There may not be a change in...
