I recently replaced my Canon 70D and 60D with a pair of R7s. I am looking to buy a 50mm 1.8 and a 10-18mm. The used RF versions of both are significantly more than their EF equivalents. I already own a RF to EF adapter. For someone who shoots for a hobby, is the quality of the EF versions good...

I have shot with a Canon 70D and 60D for many years. Before Christmas, I replaced the 60D with a Canon R7. I shoot predominantly motorsport and landscapes/urban. I am saving now to replace the 70D (which is currently my second body) and I am in a dilemma about whether to get another R7 or an R8...

I have a Canon EOS 90D and using Canon Digital Photo Professional for edits to my raw images. I notice there is a clarity slider in this app but for me it is greyed out. I have read that it depends on the image quality setting on my 90d but don’t know what setting I should use to enable the...

Hi I used to own few compact cameras in the past including canon s110, sony rx100 mk1 and canon g7x. I sold all of them as at that time I thought that I preferred the convenience of a mobile phone. However, over the last 1-2 years I am simply not satisfied with the mobile phone photos, as they...

Hi everyone. I currently have a canon 5D and I’ve been using a Sigma 70 - 300mm DG zoom f4 - 5.6 lens for sports photography for a local rugby team, however I have been looking to not only extend my zoom range but add some more quality. I have come across the Canon 100 - 400mm f4.5 - 5.6 but...

Hi, just a quick one. I'm looking for lens recommendations for travel. I have a Canon R6 mkii and a 50mm F1.2L but floating the idea of something more versatile. I'll be going to Japan for a few weeks and just wanted to hear from people's experiences with different lenses for travel. Will...

I have had a 70D for 10 years, and I am thinking it is probably time for an upgrade. My main reason for thinking of an upgrade is that I shoot motorsport, and I understand autofocus has moved on massively in the time since I bought my 70D. The 70D is a great camera, but the autofocus sometimes...

Hi all - I’m wanting to migrate from my pro Nikon DSLRs to Canon mirrorlesses, and I’ve realised that I don’t know what their Canon equivalents are, and I don’t want to invest in inferior bodies. I currently have a Nikon D5, D6, 24-70mm and 70-200mm, both 2.8, and have been planning to switch...

Hello, I have just purchased a used Canon 500mm f4 (mark I, the heavy one!). The tripod collar is not as fluid as it should be. After removing the tripod foot and looking inside the chamber, I can see that one of the miniature bearings and screw are missing. I am looking to replace this, which...

Hello, Does anyone have a spare Canon 840 telephoto lens case key they would be willing to sell. Alternatively has anyone tried making a successful copy of the key and if so, would you be willing to sell me that. Thanks, Neil

Hi, Bit of a long shot but has anyone tried this combination - Canon R7 + EF-EOS R Mount Adapter + Canon 1.4x III extender + EF 400mm f4 DO Mark I. Not conventional but it’s what I’m thinking of due to cost, weight, transportation. For wildlife in UK and Europe.

Hi there, I'm looking some advice on upgrading my camera. I mostly do macro photography of butterflies and use the Canon 7D with the Canon 100mm L 2.8 macro lens. The results are stunning and I've always been very happy with what I've been able to capture. However, I'm now looking for upgraded...

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...

Hello, I would like to start printing A4 or possibly up to A3 though this is not a deal breaker. At present I use a local printing store in town for Fine Art A4 prints of my images that I have sold. They charge apx £8 per print, and I know I can get A4 prints cheaper online, however most of...

My 7-year-old son has been using my old Canon S90 for some sports photography and noticed that there's a significant shutter lag, which makes it difficult to get the shots he wants. However, he was doing a good job at anticipating when rally cars would be in the frame today. I think it might be...

Hi all. Just wanted to pick your brains on whether anyone knows good places to find parts for older lenses, or even to buy older broken lenses with the purpose to using it for parts. I find some bits on ebay, but not for the lens i'm looking for. The lens i'm interested in is a Canon EF 85mm...

Hi.. I have a Canon 5d which I haven't used for a year or two, but got it out recently and found that the rubberised coating around the top dial is coming off and is a bit sticky when I touch it. I've heard of this before but does anyone know if there's a way to stop it. I've tried cleaning it...

Hi Basic question - would an EF 800mm f5.6 with a 1.4x extender retain autofocus at the centre point with a 1DX Mark II? I can find this article here (https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART174703) that "1 series bodies" retain centre point AF, but 1DX is not mentioned? Thanks

Hi there, My first post! I have several Canon L lenses used with my (very old ) 5D MkII. My question is: If I keep my L lenses, can I use them on any 'modern' mirrorless body, or is the best I can do a 5D Mk IV? Thank you. JW

Hello. My name is Pavle. I'm a young photographer. I have just started, so I'm a beginner so I'm still learning. Focus (that square thing) was set on this guy's body (stomach) and not face. What I'm trying to ask is if that (square) is on his stomach will only part of that body (stomach) be in...

According to this Canon rumour the CEO of Canon JP promised to release 8 new lenses annually for the next 4 years. If this is true what are the top 8 RF lenses do you want to see by this time next year?

This has been verified by me with EF bodies from 2003 EOS 10D up to 2015 EOS 5Ds R. RF bodies like the 2020 EOS R5 & 2022 EOS R7 may have this. Owners may want to verify. To reduce whatever ISO noise Canon has a weird ISO increments of every ISO 160. So ISO - 160 - 320 - 640 - 1250 - 2500 -...

Hi everyone. I went for a roll around the local park on Saturday. I took my EOS650 loaded with HP4 and left my 90D at home - so that I didn't get a set of duplicate photos. It was a cold day and the wheelchair just about managed the path down to the lake. I met a couple of other keen...

Hi all, I haven't posted on here for a while but I'm planning on going on a 3 week safari this summer and I was planning on upgrading my camera for the trip. My original plan was to hire both camer and lenses because I haven't been using my camera much recently, but for the cost of hiring a...

Hi everyone, I have recently gotten a Canon A1, that functions perfectly well apart from the shutter speeds at the lower end of the dial. Timings starting at around half a second, are significantly faster than they should be. For example a 1 second exposure is measuring at around 0.8 seconds...

Hey all! Just a quick one, I'm looking at renting some lenses and maybe a 2nd work horse body for certain shoots (Mainly sports so bigger lenses 400mm etc.) What website do you use or know about that would be good for this? Decent prices etc. CHEERS!

Hi, I’m new to photography having my fujifilm x100t has given me a real passion for it and I am looking at doing a diploma course with the BAPH (I know it doesn’t count for much but would be pretty much my first qualification in anything so I want to do it) I was looking at the equipment list...

So I'm currently using my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy s9+) and an old bridge camera, specifically a Polaroid is2132. The Polaroid is fine and all, but I've had it for about 8 years and am in the mood to treat myself a little bit and replace it but I'm unsure on what to buy as the replacement. For...

Hey guys! So I have a Canon EOS 1100D(Rebel T3) and was looking to mount a Helios 44-2 onto there - which outside of an adapter I can do, no problems. But as my 1100D(Rebel T3) is a crop sensor I wanted to get an focal reducer to make the most of the lens but I am struggling to find one - I'm...
