    R5 Q&A - shared experiences

    Hi. Thought I would open up a thread for Q&A/FAQ for the R5 where you can ask questions and hopefully get some answers along the way that aren't embedded in the overheating debates. Q1 for me is that I didn't seem to get close enough ie minimum focus distance with me R5/RF adaptor/EF100mm L...

    Advice for USB-C dock to handle CFExpress and/or USH-II SD cards

    I can find card readers but no docks for USB-C. I would prefer to have 1 dock to handle CFExpress, SD (USH-II), USB-A, HDMI and power. Ideally using thunderbolt but USB 3.1gen2 would be also okay. No need for multiple external displays or ethernet at this time. I can see a couple of dedicated...

    RF TC = RF-RF or RF-EF?

    Can we confirm that the announced RF TCs are RF to RF? RF-RF could only be used on the 100-500mm (if new DO super tele is not released soon) and @1000mm f/14 (2x) would have few use cases. They can't fit the RF70-200 due to how close the rear element is to the mount. If they are RF to EF TCs...

    Dual micro SD to SD card adaptor for redundancy. Anyone have industry contacts for this one?

    I posted this deep in another thread but thought it made some sense to add as a new one.... Micro SD cards are harder to handle but you can get UHS II and 512GB versions so technically no performance hurdle. Would you buy a dual card adaptor for your single slot camera if redundancy is...

    Are there any other consequences to the removal of the hotshoe universal pin besides 3rd party flash compatibility?

    Canon competition to D610+14-24 f/2.8

    Not clickbait... hear me out... I have been a decades long user of Canon. Currently 7D/10-22mm, 24-105 f/4, 70-200mm f/2.8II 7D is wearing out and I am getting to its limits (IMHO). So... what to replace it with. Night/astro/landscape is where I mostly use my 10-22mm lens and publish. Looking...

    6D vs 7D mark II

    Hi Guys... in a quandary. I have a 7D with 10-22mm lens, etc. Getting on now after 3 years of reasonably heavy use and generally happy but hitting the limit with noise/wide aperture lens. I do nightscapes, sea/landscapes but also some action shots (not published). Going full frame was the next...
