I've got a III and can't say I've noticed any slow down in autofocus with my R3 and 100-400mkii - I also had a version I convertor a few years ago and it was noticeably slower.

I've been twice in the last six years - it's totally different to the sixties when the mass of stupid people thought it was ok to feed wild animals. My favourite place in the world and I intend going back for a month in around 3 or 4 years time. View...

My hot shoe is covered with gaffer tape to prevent any rain getting in. I've noticed a few guys hold on the cover with gaffer tape too.

I've got a v1c it plays nicely with my R3

I went from a 17-40 to 16-35 - difference in quality is pretty big.

I think I've got one of these - if it is the same one it's quite heavy and stiff material - bit overkill and awkward to use because of stiffness.

Shot a a football manager at the end of the match I shot at the weekend with the R3 and went a bit overboard with a couple of bursts - so slapped all 140 frames together in Final Cup Pro - here's what they look like. View: https://youtu.be/_h-N-27w4bk
