Thanks for all the responses. Currently, I'm leaning towards getting the R6 with RF-EF adapter, sell the 100-400mm and get the mark 2 version. This lets me keep the 24-105mm that i have and more importantly keep the costs down. Further questions - Is there any reason to upgrade my EF...

I currently own - Eos 6D mark 1 body EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Predominantly, I want to be able to take pictures of my teenage daughter playing rugby (indoor training, outdoor playing) or Jiu-Jitsu (indoor). Im lucky that with regard to the rugby i can walk the...

The 7D would be the logical body for me meaning I can keep the 10-22mm, plus i get the extra reach. However, I've read that its not a good body for low light shooting. Also, the age of the body and the fact that a 7Dii is perhaps around the corner, with better technology has put me off. If the...

I'm currently eyeing up the 6D to replace my broken 30D. Hope this is the right thread for this post as im not an owner! I'd be looking to take pictures of my 19mth daughter as she grows up to include zoo visits, nursery/school activities and parties etc. I'm into cars and go to the occasional...

Thanks for that cosmicma. Will take a look and decide whether to fix or upgrade!

It appears that i have managed to bend a pin on the CF interface in my camera. Can this be repaired? Any recommendations as to who can carry this out? Any idea of estimated costs? Thanks

Its hidden away behind a non working link - http://www.canon.co.uk/About_Us/Press_Centre/Press_Releases/Consumer_News/index.aspx My guess is fifth item down, but you can view it in all its glory if you use the RSS feed...

Have you looked at http://www.briandorey.com/page/Neutral-Density-Calculator-for-Android.aspx

I bought the codec pack from http://www.fastpictureviewer.com/codecs/ There's a trial version available also.

Breaker, did you do anything to progress this? I too have a 'gritty' noise when i use the MF on the lens. However, in AF its quiet, no sign of the 'grit' noise.

I wear Double Happys from www.groundeffect.co.nz Have to buy direct from them which is the only downside, great shorts though.

For clarrification, if i buy from Kerso, there are no issues using the canon cash back vouchers? If so, the 100-400 is mighty tempting.

Kev, any chance of you posting that link?

If I'm climbing, I always drop the travel to lower the front and then open it up at the top. I can adjust between 90 and 130mm in 3mm steps with my fork - Fox Talas RLC. I tend to lock the fork as soon as I'm on tarmac, otherwise its left open. Ive never played with rebound and compression...

I seem to remember a few years ago, a certain lady using the name Miss Whiplash appearing in the press along with some MP's. Your link is a bit of a dissapointment, not what i was expecting!;)
