Mother spleenwort, Hen and chicken fern or it's real name Asplenium bulbiferum This is a focus stack of forty images, taken with a Canon r7, using the in built focus bracketing, the lens was a Sigma 150mm macro and the images were stacked in Photoshop and processed in Lightroom...

I bought an r7 a few weeks ago, I bought a Neewer ef-r mount adapter. It works flawlessly and is well built, i think I paid about £75. Unless you want an adapter with a control ring, I don't think you gain anything by going with the canon adapter, other than a larger hole in your bank account. :)

Thanks I've watched a few reviews and on the whole they all seem pretty positive. I'm sure the performance will be the same whether mirrorless or mirrored, it was more about the sensor resolution and how it would be paired with the 32mp and you've answered that for me. Thanks for replying

I'm thinking of getting a canon ef-s 17-55 f/2.8. I'm have an ef 24-105 f/4, but this is a big, fairly heavy lens to be carrying around. I'm after something that I can just plonk on my camera and go for a walk around town or with the dogs. So my question is how would this lens perform on my r7...

I'm using a k&f battery in my r7, I've not noticed any difference and it's usb-c charging, which is quite convenient.

Superb

Yes Phil, I've gone from an 80d to a r7. I've watched a few YouTube videos on how best to set up the auto focus and have gone the opposite way to you in regards to bbf and * buttons. That's just because I take a lot of action shots of the dogs playing in water and fields. I've set C1, C2 and C3...

As much as I like my new camera, relearning is a right pain in the behind. I had my old camera for 6yrs, it had become an extension of me. I new it inside and out (well, all the bit I needed to know), the button positions were second nature, the focus system was fairly simple (DSLR), I'd set up...

This is so sad to read. Chris was a great person to have on this forum, always kind, helpful, diplomatic and funny. He will be greatly missed I'm sure. My deepest condolences to you (Ross) and your family.

Well done @TimHughes it was a great shot.

Just straight forward ICM. It was a bit of a rush job while I was in the greenhouse. If I'd had a tripod, I would have taken a straight shot and blended it with the ICM shot to have the flower sharper.
