Welcome to the club @owenb . It's all about the out and about when it comes to the 6D isn't it?

Buy it and sell on? Or let me have that opportunity.

there comes another one.

@Nod , except an 8mm fisheye is a proper fisheye. The guy wants an adapter screw-on lens. what is your thread diameter? I have a 55mm I would sell in the UK. Experience wise: fisheye has almost never been ones in which you care about sharpness so let's not care about sharpness. The edges will...

Well, forward focusing on the outer points while being accurate on the centre one. Claim that it is a camera fault (the problem is between the AF sensor, mirror, and actual image sensor) and the lens has nothing to do with it. Maybe it is just clearer to him now that he is using f1.4 with such a...

Price doesn't sound like an issue for you, in which case if you are simply asking about the best/prettiest/most impressive options, then the Sigma f1.4 Art has had the highest regard, followed of course by the Canon f1.4. There is also the 24mm f1.4 L which also has many lovers if you intend to...

Internal dust itself is normal due to this lens's design, but pay very close attention to distinguish dust from potential fungus. Focus lock ring lining has a tendency to wear. Look for any sticky material appearing around the focus ring long on the barrel (especially near the number 100). Push...

I DIY most/all of my things, but I also have lots of experience, skill and knowledge. If you are confident enough the job is very simply but would just take time to pin point the right infinity point (it is a good idea not to go beyond infinity most of the time. If you are reluctant, I would...

Good share Igor. I did not notice you could do it like this with the IR remote shutter release before. Is it the same on other mirrorful models?

If you're comparing two side-by-side "anything" you cannot tell the difference. Instead you should be able to point out the differences in what you are comparing before you can tell which of these things affects the outcome. If you're comparing two size-by-size something, and you want an answer...

Way to go YongNuo for those basic test resutls. I am slightly disturbed though that their knock offs do not shy away from emulating every aspect of the lens, even cosmetically. Why don't they just design their own plastic and call it their own lens, for instance?

Hi all. I hereby join this thread. Where did you come to the 6D from, and why did you choose the 6D in particular?

Go for YongNuo and then start looking at their wireless triggers for your next spending spree.

See you guys are all still talking sensor technology NOT sensor size. Again, since the variables are too many that you cannot pin them down into a fair comparison (manufacturers do this on purpose), the only best way to think about size differences is to think about FILM. Can you compare two...

This is where you contradicted yourself really, not the first part of the sentence. Thank you for repeating what I said. fraction or ratio, call it what you wish. Anyway, can we drop this before the OP drops on photography? I think we should all shut up and let the guy play with his camera...
