I recently had a quote from WEX but payment offer was credit from them and not cash. Presumably they do this for less in demand items ?

Canon have finally allowed Sigma to produce APS-C lenses in the RF mount. I interpret this to mean Canon will not invest too much R&D into future crop sensor lenses but potentially good news for R7 users - price, quality etc...

Bluebell woods at Reydon my first attempt this year

As post processing appears to be ruled out - is there any reason why the iPhone images aren't suitable for the intended use ?

Slightly O/T but with regard to pubs - the model has changed. There are very few wet only pubs these days - perhaps a few in larger population centres. The majority of country pubs now do food as it's more profitable than drink and people are prepared to drive if the food is decent. However for...

Really well seen seen image that draws you in. I wonder if it might be improved by losing the paler section at the very bottom of the image ?

I can only surmise that they're a low frequency purchase so they have high profit margins

Isn't that the compromise with all lenses though - need the flexibility of a zoom then optical quality gives in certain areas. Want ultimate optical quality then probably looking at very expensive primes It just depends on where the user feels comfortable with image quality v price and the...

I can't comment on the 24-240mm or the 200-800 as I don't have personal experience. However I'd consider keeping the EF 100 for macro and save some money rather than replace with the RF version

Have a look locally to see whether anyone is selling a branded office chair. I got an RH Logic for under £100 and it was virtually unused. Other makes to look out for are Herman Miller and Steelcase

I don't have a gas boiler but my concern would be on these plans if there is any pressure out on the engineers to say they can't repair it e.g. can't get the parts, not economically viable etc but let me quote for a new boiler

If you are set on the rear panel opening (I'm assuming you mean the side closest to your back when carrying) this may limit your choice - I've finally settled on an Osprey with the trampoline mesh harness and an insert. I have to say once adjusted and with the belt tightened it's the best bag...

Many thanks unfortunately the budget doesn't stretch to the 100-500. Can I clarify when you say the EF is the faster lens are you referring to aperture, AF speed or something else

Just wondering if anyone had moved to the RF version from the EF and could share their thoughts please. I've currently got an EF 400 5.6 to go with my R7. Whilst I really like the lens I'm finding the fixed focal length limiting at times and would like to have the flexibility of a zoom...
