I called Canon, it was a bit of back and forth as even they didn't have anything listed in their parts catalog for straps! After some snooping around, it appears the wide strap B is the official strap for the 300/400/500/600 mk2 family. The official listing only specifies compatibility with the...

I'm sorry but I'm afraid I don't follow privatebydesign... I have the case, just not the strap to the case? Buying a whole case just for the missing strap seems... excessive? On another note, the page for the case (both B&H and Canon) also appears to not mention anything about a strap either.

Thanks Neuro! It appears my used copy is missing the monopod foot and both the case and lens straps. I'm not too upset about the straps but that foot is a bummer. I do intend to use the lens on a monopod... I also noticed that Canon doesn't list any of these things in their lens accessories...

https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/r6EAAOSw0qdcdaRP/s-l1600.jpg This is an image from eBay, I've tried to contact the seller with little luck. Maybe you guys here know. I recently got a 600mm Mk II used but i suspect it's not complete. So I'm curious as to what the retail lens actually comes with...

I'm not sure if the person above me is being serious, but: BR = blue spectrum refractive https://petapixel.com/2016/03/10/canons-new-blue-spectrum-refractive-lens-technology-works/

Re: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Specifications & Image He's referencing the picture used as the "thumbnail" for this news post (obvious photoshop). I don't think he saw the actual photo in the article as you had to expand the article on the front page to see the actual link to the leaked image...

Like Vista before it, there will come a time when Windows 7 will be retired as well... If you had Win 10, the machine might remain relevant for a little while longer... It keeps options open. On the other hand, by the time Win 7 is retired, you might just buy a new PC anyways and this...

Meh... It's a generation older but slightly higher clocked. If it's any better you're talking about a few percentage points at best. The biggest you would gain from that would be flexibility with HDs (being able to have more than one) and the ability to add a higher performing video card for GPU...

It means in RT mode, it's both master and slave. in the old mode (optical mode, like the 580EX) it can only be a slave.

looks like there will be a LR6 (US website) https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom/versions.html?promoid=KSKCX

Just got back from Yellowstone actually... I had 7D Mk2 + 2x + 600mm Mk2. The reach was "acceptable". There were a few instances where the 70-200 came in handy. Do bring something for landscapes as well. Things you could see in the winter: Bison, Wolves, Coyotes, Red Foxes, Grizzly (there's...

Re: Canon EOS 5DS & EOS 5DS R Press Release Does that mean the image will be magnified in the optical viewfinder in crop mode? Or will the optical viewfinder be "cropped" when in crop mode?

Just got my 5Dmk3 from the Canon Jamesburg, NJ facility. I sent it in 12/29 for cleaning. firmware is still 1.2.3...

I have confirmed that the dandelion autofocus confirmation chip DOES NOT work for this purpose. The body is fooled into thinking it's an EOS lens, but the teleconverter isn't buying it. I suspect it's because the EF conconveter is expecting 3 more pins to provide data that the AF confirmation...

that might work... I will look into this. Thank you! Wei

So I have a telescope which I use a T-Ring to EOS adapter with. Like everyone here who shoots (really) far away things, I like attaching my Canon Teleconverters to it. However, with the 5D3 + Telecoverter + T-Ring adapter, the camera won't take a picture and instead complains not being able to...

Since we're messing around with stacking teleconverters... why limit it to EF lenses, what about... a telescope... The images attached are shot with a sky-watcher ProED 120mm Doublet APO Refractor + 0.85x reducer/field flattener. It's natively 900mm but with the reducer it's 765mm. The Camera...

Ok, I'm sticking to the sticker shock theory ;D. I see what you mean about the non-periodic error that would be an problem. I'll keep looking at my options. This is a very expensive habit hobby >.<.

Yay! more data! Hmm your view on Celestron greatly differs from those at the local astronomy club :-\. They tend to hold the Advanced VX and CGEM mounts to a pretty high standard. I think it's sticker shock, photographers have already come to terms with $1k tripods and $2k+ lenses. The...

Thanks for the pointers. I already ordered the reducer/field flattener that goes with this scope. I think that should help the vignetting I'm seeing right now with my 2" to 1.25" adapter + t-mount adapter + t-mount to EOS adapter. I'm looking to get the Celestron Advanced VX mount to go with...
