    Geotagging

    Thought I should provide an update on the Unihertz Jelly 2 in case somebody buys this smartphone after reader my original post. Over the last few weeks I've tried to use the smartphone in Ireland and Egypt, where I've had no luck getting a GPS lock - even in open space with clear skies where it...

    Geotagging

    I tend to do the above as well. I have a small Android phone (Unihertz Jelly 2) that is attached to the hotshoe of my Canon M6 Mk II and use the Locus Map app to create a log of all my movements as a .gpx. The advantage of this app is that it also stores the compass directions at any given time...

    Camera backpacks (mirrorless)

    I take it the top half is like a normal backpack? Could be perfect for me - Is there enough space for a small battery pack, 11 inch iPad and 2-3 cables?

    Canon EOS R Series Cameras

    For Canon Test Drive, can you try out the same item multiple times?

    eGlobal Central

    Last few comments were making me have a think again, but it doesn't look like it matters anymore as they seem to have shut down their UK operations as of today.

    eGlobal Central

    Has anybody use eGlobal Central recently? I'm tempted to purchase a Canon RP (Body only) for £750 using code "WINTERSALE", however I am suspicious as their price seems too good to be true when compared to E-Infinity. I will obviously be using PayPal to protect myself if I go ahead with the...

    Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM vs. Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM

    Thanks for everyone suggestions here. After a few trips and trying out all the 3 lenses mentioned in this thread, I have gone for the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM (Mk 1). The weight made a difference to me and I didn't think there was too much difference in IQ between all three.

    Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM vs. Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM

    At the moment After hearing everyone's thoughts and doing more research online I've come to the conclusion that if the weight of the Signa doesn't bother me than I will get the Sigma. If I think it will be an issue than I will get the Canon 24-105mm Mk1. Just hope I can get my hands on a Mk1 or...

    Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM vs. Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM

    Generally people in that thread seem to slightly favor the Sigma (I think). I have found a review that mentions the Sigma: http://www.the-digital-picture.com/Reviews/Canon-EF-24-105mm-f-4L-IS-II-USM-Lens.aspx It seems to suggest that there is no clear winner between the Canon Mk2 and the Sigma...

    Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM vs. Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM

    I haven't managed to find a comparison between the Canon MK2 and the Sigma. The Sigma is heavier than the Canon MK2 by 90g and about 290g than the MK1. I managed to go to my local Jessops and tried the Canon MK2 on a 6D. The weight didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. I was hoping...

    Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM vs. Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM

    I did consider the Mk1, however the general consenci seems to be that the Sigma is far sharper than it. A lot of Mk1s also seem to suffer from IS failure as well, so I thought it's best to avoid.

    Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM vs. Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM

    I suppose the following would be most important for me in no particular order: Centre Sharpness Bokeh quality Focusing accuracy

    Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM vs. Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM

    I've just managed to get hold of a Canon 6D MK1 and am now looking for a general use lens to use with it. Looking around the web I came across the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS II USM and the Sigma 24-105mm f4 DG OS HSM, which on paper I believe meet my needs. However, I can't decide between them...
