    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    Nothing wrong with just wanting something as long as you don't bankrupt yourself. Its a pretty awesome lens and better than the EF version wide open. Regards...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    I think you will struggle to get a reader for £20. The one I got was £45 now (£34 :() and that seemed to be the going rate. One thing I did notice about using a reader is that the card gets very hot indeed. Link

    Don't buy a used car either as they are currently selling at +20% or so. At least here in Scotland. Regards...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    I just got the 70-200F4 and it is an astonishing little lens. Its just perfect for walking around with. Bitingly sharp as well. Regards...

    5D mark iv vs the 5Dsr

    I have both and I would say keep the 5d4. Its the more versatile of the two. The 5dsr is really an ISO 100 only camera if you want maximum quality. In terms of print size I struggle to tell the difference even at A2 size. Unless you want the megapixel bragging rights of course. (Which is worth...

    Oops :(. Shows how out of touch I am. I thought it was around 7k. Regards...

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    I see Canon are continuing with their reassuringly expensive approach to the RF system. 13K for a 400mm F2.8 :( I wonder how much the R1 will be when it arrives. Anyone want a bet on 7K? Regards...

    Digital Medium Format Thread

    Thanks for this. Almost everything I do is on a tripod to be honest so fading light isn't really a problem in that respect. I think *having* to focus stack every image rather than choosing to would be a deal killer for me. I just couldn't be bothered with all that effort for every image. Regards...

    Digital Medium Format Thread

    I've been researching the GFX cameras, eps the 100s and have come across a possible problem with their use in landscape. In most of the youtube videos I've watched everyone seems to have to focus stack to get a reasonable depth of field in the image. Does anyone know if this is really always...

    Advice on Elinchrom light modifiers

    I would think that a 90cm Octa , even with a grid, will not give you the directionality of a BD. Perhaps not even close depending on the the size of the BD. Regards...

    Advice on Elinchrom light modifiers

    Just as an aside, you may have two speedrings to add to that cost at around £50 for the pair. I would also say that the above softbox may be too small for headshot photography unless you are going for contrasty/moody shots. 60cm simply isn't big enough to do soft light*. I can't manage it with...

    Canon 5DS R

    My EOS R does make focusing tilt/shift lenses easier with the focus peaking. Its something that I wish my 5dsr had. And other Canon DSLRs to be honest. Other than that I'm still happy with the 5Dsr for most stuff. Regards
