Ive had that lens in and out of my basket since Jan. I keep putting it off as i really couldn’t afford it, but also wanted to get it with the 5 month interest free option. Couldn’t believe when i saw it for £349 and the monthly option. Now a very happy owner.

I found out about shutter shock the day I got my R7. Never seen in on various M cameras, nor Sony's. I was very concerned but after a bit of research I realised the camera is working as it was intended, and I just needed to adjust. Not used full mechanical shutter since Oct last year, and no...

You could cancel if it was accidental.

I took a walk up to WEX in London today. First time ive been to the shop. Quite disappointing as it seemed there is more empty space than gear. Took me a while just to find the half empty Canon lens cabinet. Anyway, I got what I was after, which is the RF 16mm f/2.8. Ive been going back and...

Are you sure its worth £199? it was only ever advertised with the basic one that costs £99.

I got my first RF lens this week. Just the cheap RF 50mm f/1.8 STM I have the EF version which I use on my M50, but I wanted to see what the Control ring was all about, and this lens seemed the cheapest way to get it. I expect this lens will spend a lot of time on my R7, at least until a 32mm...

Nice one. That’s the lens I’m going to get for next summer. Look forward to seeing some shots from it.

A cheap wireless remote no good? I got one off Amazon for about £7 a few years ago and its worked with every Canon camera ive used.

After a shaky start with my R7, and getting a returns number, ive decided to keep it. Ive taken over almost 900 shots i since i got it, and other than day two all the shots have been great. I think my issue was using H+, lo-ish shutter speeds and full mechanical shutter. Since going to H, EFCS...

Yes, it’s known thing apparently(also with other cameras). Only really noticeable under certain conditions but quite annoying now that I’ve experienced it. Ive not looked in to it too much, but there are quite a few threads and posts around the net. I wasn’t bothered until I experienced it...

Im probably going to send my R7 back to WEX. Im really struggling to confidently get sharp shots. Im aware of the shutter shock issue, but i dont want to be forced to use the Electronic shutter. Ive had some great shots, but these seem to be hit or miss. Im using my 18-135 Nano STM and i can...

Id always use Amazon if i can but HDEW is very tempting. Just more hassle. Yeah. I remember a few years ago Panamoz prices sky rocketed, as if they didnt want anyone to use them. Ive used all the big name places, but these days steer clear of Digital Rev as i had a fake filter arrive from...

Wow, i was just looking at pricing for the RF 50mm f/1.8, and HDEW have it for £145, Amazon have it for £180, MPB have used ones for £179 and Panamoz have it for £350

Yeah. I must admit i got carried away with all the AF excitement when it was first announced, convinced myself i need it, and ordered it. I was aware the IQ wouldn't be different but as i had been wanting a ‘super’ M50 this is going to be perfect. As i said, im happy with the M50 so I knew I’ll...

One of the plus points for me buying grey is the extra warranties that come with the products. Obviously we don’t know how it will pan out if we need to claim on it, but I have first hand experience with Panamoz’s warranty and it was excellent.
