    Canon R5 Wireless Transfer

    I do all my editing on the go from my phone. Not time to be messing about with a laptop back at the car! The battery life I'm referring too is my phone. A noticeable difference over the past week. The battery life on the camera actually seems fair!

    Canon R5 Wireless Transfer

    Hi all, Recently took the jump to mirrorless and settled on the R5. One of the benefits was the built in wifi, which is future proofed some what compared to the Flashair card I used with my rather ancient 1D MkIV! However, I'm having awful issues - to the point where I'm tempted just to put...

    WiFi SD Cards

    Canon 1D MkIII body repairs

    Hi folks just to update you... I've spoken to at least 4 different companies now we are all basically saying it's dead, nothing can be done. So a bit of a word of warning for any MkIII owners out there... if it goes wrong that's the end of the road. I'm absolutely gutted as everything is...

    Canon 1D MkIII body repairs

    Good afternoon all! Unfortunately, both my Canon 1D MkIV and Canon 1D Mk III have let me down. Both have suffered breakdown brought on by - I assume - being out in the rain at a job last night. The MkIV has already been posted off to Canon for what is expected to be a £400+ repair (none of the...
