    Will Tamron and Sigma start producing lenses for Canon RF mount?

    I wonder when Sigma and Tamron will start producing lenses for Canon RF mount, as both are producing excellent lenses for Sony E-mount that are sometimes even better than Sony equivalents. Any thoughts?

    A little bit more about the upcoming Canon EOS R6 [CR2]

    Dual card slots in one of the compromises I am not going to afford. If released with a single card slot I am out

    There are delays in production for both the Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6

    I am in as well. Additionally, it would be healthy to wait for some reviews

    Anyone using the new X100V, especially as a travel body?

    The color profiles on the Fujifilm X100 series are similar or better in some cases than the Canon profiles. These cameras are very good for travelling if you stick to 35mm equiv. focal length. AF is good and the skin tone rendering of Fuji is second to none. I used and sold it to buy an X-T3...

    There are delays in production for both the Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6

    Honestly, I would like to get price and actual reviews as soon as possible. I have been waiting for a serious Canon mirrorless camera and preventing the temptation to buy Sony cameras to couple with my Canon glass, since I knew that the initial EOS R/RP would be only an initial attempt by Canon...

    Rest well Canon EOS 7D series [CR2]

    Will the Canon's APS-C mirrorless version will be another R-type format or a revamped EOS-M? Canon 7D series was one of the best-selling cameras.

    Canon 16-35 F4, how do you like it?

    EF 16-35 f/4L IS is a terrific lens in all aspects, sharp corner-to-corner, lightweight, IS and weather sealed. I used it every time I have the opportunity to do so. If you don't need wider FL or faster aperture i.e. f/2.8 this is it. My only regret is that I paid much more of what is being sold...

    Lightroom 6 is the last perpetual offering of Lightroom

    Besides LR&PS, which other non_Adobe processor may be the best for managing Canon RAW files? I like the flexibility of stand alone licenses. Any advise?

    5d3 Vs 5d4

    I will clear your concern about low light and high ISO with the X-T2. X-T2 AF performs admirably and output noise of my 5D3 and X-T2 at ISO 3,200-6,400 is essentially the same. On the other hand, once you get the X-T2 you'll be tempted to purchase more lenses that you may expect. I started with...

    Which gear for a 15 years birthday party?

    Many thanks to you all! I will take the 24-70mm lens as my primary lens with the 5D3, along with the 70-200mm lens and the 50mm lens. I have about 20 AA Eneloop batteries for speelites and as modifiers I will take the flashbender.

    Which gear for a 15 years birthday party?

    I just want to get some help from you guys on what lenses and accessories may I need for the celebration of a 15 years birthday party. Photography is a hobbie but a friend that is budget restrained needs my help. I already explained to him I am not a pro. I currently own a 5D Mark 3 with 3 zooms...

    Canon EF 85mm f/1.4L IS USM on the Way [CR3]

    Nikon and Sony rivals are around USD 1600-1800 so, Canon will never be cheaper :-\ :'(

    Canon EF 85mm f/1.4L IS USM on the Way [CR3]

    Count me in! But I hope that it's not heavier than the current 85L, and priced around the Nikon/Sony rivals, filter isn't larger than 77mm 6mm filter and with reproduction ratio of 1:8 or better. Then, my 100L will be for sale.

    Arca-style quick release system for Manfrotto ballhead

    I replaced the clamp with a Desmond DBA-2 60mm Arca & Manfrotto Compatible Clamp and it works wonderful. But the design and plate of my ballhead is totally different, just check for compatibility before you buy anything...

    Canon 100 2.8 IS Macro L or Tamron 85 1.8?

    If you don't care about macro, simply do not consider it. However, I have owned the 100L and it is my favorite lens for portrait, despite having the 70-200/2.8L II, and that is the reason I haven't got another dedicated prime for portraiture.

    Review - Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L III Lens by TDP

    It may be sharper but only by small margin. It will find some shooters that require speed in low light conditions but for most photographers and videographers using wide angle lenses, the 16-35mm f/4L IS is more than adequate.
