@6.2m Part 2

@ 6.2m / 20 feet Part 1

So I have done some tests indoors. First set @ ~6.2m with 100-400, 100-500 & 200-800 with and without 1.4 which is about the distance where the 12inch/30cm test card fills the sensor at around 700-800mm. Also a second set around 11.3m from target a bit more typical of my use. not happy with a...

I'm in the Uk but about 5 mins after 5am when orders opened

Park Cameras - at about 5am on announcement day!

My RF 24-70 only seems to lock at 24mm as expected

My RF 200-800 arrived today. Overcast and very dull here in southern England today so very limited in what I could do out the back door. Will do something more measured in the house later with a test card and RAW in DPP. 3 very quick shots taken as comparison 100-500+1.4 @ 700mm F10 and 200-800...

My RF 200-800 arrived today

Obviously there is going to a big difference between these lenses. However the difference between the two lenses on her shorter range shots is not that great but very significanat at 40m indicating that perhaps the 200-800 isn't so good at those longer distances. That was my point.

Thanks for the links Alan and it has given me pause for thought. I think I will still go through with my pre-order but will hold off selling the 100-500 aand do some more direct comparisons too. I think the main point of concern for me was the longer range shots on the Pangolin review. The...

This review was quite informative with comparisons with the Sony 200-600 and Canon 100-500 even if your French isn't up to much! Looks slightly better than the Sony at comparable focal lengths and not far off the 100-500 as indicated by MTFs Good job - I have an early pre-order and selling my...

I had a short play with 1.5.2 yesterday but not a full test. I found the bird tracking improved as per Alan's findings. Didn't try to focus at very short distances but I when I switched to expand AF I did find the focus much worse although that was only for a short time. I had had no lock ups...

I have a i5-7600 16GB & GTX1660 and it general use DPP4 runs fine with no significant delays. Running DeepPrime of course does flog it - I'm guessing 10-15 secs per photo once it is up and running - worth the wait for the results

Long time lurker so decided to post some of my R5 test shots. All shot with 400DOII with Ext2xII at F8. PL4 processed

Not the main power switch but have short power off settings - Display off 30 secs, auto power off 1 min, viewfinder off 1 min

Testing my R5 last weekend, I had the 400DOii with 2x extender, back screen on, IS on about half the time. Shot about 700 frames over about 90 mins. Battery from full to 38% so seems to be a lot more than you. 6 days unused and then about 50 shots over half an hour today - 100-400II with 1.4x IS...

A 21MP quad-pixel sensor would have 84MP pixels of course which could in theory have a special mode that could record each sub-pixel separately. And it would seem a waste of a quad pixel set up if you didn't have a dual or quad gain set up to improve DR. So whilst there are elements that could...

Good review, fair and balanced. Can't quibble with any of his observations. Have mine on order - looking forward to size and weight. Planning on using it as the alternative lens in my 2 lens/camera set ups - 16-35F4 & 70-200F4 for landscapes & 400 DO II or 100-400 and 70-200 for wildlife. I'd...

RE Japanese factory fire - the pending shortage is for ADC audio chips so impact is cameras not lenses and for other audio equipment manufacturers too
