Hello, just purchased my 1st camera the R8. I plan on using it on a trip to Disney. Os there anything I should really be looking at to upgrade to? I have no photography experience other than taking pictures on my cell phone.

Hey everyone! The shutter in my camera recently broke and I'm debating just upgrading to a full frame body instead of repairing, but I'm not too sure what to get. I currently use a T8i and I LOVED it. If I were to upgrade, what body would yall recommend? I want to stick with a DLSR/EF lens compatible. Thanks!

High iso is beyond mind blowing. My old camera Sony a35 would be noisy at iso1600. This cab do iso 25600 and it's still pretty clean.

Eye auto focus is so cool. Love the out of camera colors

Question about her pq, I know it's too maximize the dynamic range when displayed on hdr devices like OLED tvs, but does it hurt the picture quality when displayed on sdr devices like iPads?

Need help please, I'd like to get a 35mm lens for this body. What lens do I need to look for specifically, any FD 35mm? Is there only one version? I'm not a canon guy and the camera is my son's so I don't have it, he sent me a photo. Thanks so much in advance, any specifics I should be aware of are greatly appreciated.

Which is better in terms of eye tracking and animal detection? Autofocus and keeping focus? Most likely for sports and wildlife

I’ve just switched from my good old 5dmiii to a compact full of digital R8. All of my canon lens + Sigma 100-400 work wonderfully. But when I tried it with the Sigma 1.4 Arr, it got underexposed a lot and cannot use any auto mode (Auto iso, Av, Tv), I could only set everything manually. Has anyone encountered this problem? Any advice? I couldn’t find any threads regarding this issue either. Thanks everyone in advance.

What should I offer sellers?

Thanks

I have been having a weird problem with my R10 refurbished camera (which basically looked brand new and never used when I got it in January). Now I am having problems where I go out to use the camera and the battery is dead. I had brought it out the day before with a fully charged battery and took maybe 5 shots and had it turned on for maybe 30 minutes (but it was on standby for most of that time). Go out today and it's completely dead. It literally sat in the camera all night and DIED?? I have a back up canon battery and the same thing happens with that one. This doesn't happen all the time but it happens frequently enough to be annoying. Most of the time I have my backup on me but today I did not and I missed a few good shots! Any ideas why this is happening? Is this normal for the R10 or is mine defective?

Hello,

I wanted to get advice for buying a new camera. I’ve been enjoying 35mm film photography for fun- I still only have the basic lens that came with the camera- I think it uses the EF mount. I wanted to start scanning my own negatives so I need a good digital camera. Ive read that 24 mega pixels is optimal for the close up photos of the film. I also want to use the camera for general photography instead of my phone which I use now.

I guess my questions are if you think it’s worth buying one of the new mirrorless cameras or should I save money and maybe buy one of the old slr models (e.g. 5d or 6d). I could share lens with the 35mm if I go with older models, right? They look like a bargain now too. SLRs are heavy, though…

What are your thoughts. I don’t really have a budget, but less is probably better.

Thanks!!

Hi all!

I don't own any L series lenses, but I have a chance to "upgrade" my RF 24-105 kit lens to the L series EF version for very little cost. To be honest my RF 24-105 is my least favourite lens, but I keep it because in certain situations I'm happy to trade in IQ for versatility.

So the question is, would it actually be an upgrade? Could I finally own the 24-105 non-begrudgingly if it had a red band and a mount adapter?

Cheers :)

EDIT : I also keep an EF mount DSLR and an EF mount SLR, so some bonus points to the EF

Asking the long time Canon users for suggestions. I try to make it short:

• Im not a photographer, wife and me just like to take nice pictures of our trips
• We shoot jpg (dont judge me)
• We had been using a 60D for years before going for "smaller and lighter".

Tried Fuji Xt4 and Sony 6700. Now I look back to our old photos and realize how that Canon was precious: shooting automatic 90% of the time the jpgs were GOOD. Not stellar maybe, not those lightroom hyperproduced images, but good. They felt real, the colors warm and on point, and I never had to worry about white balance like those mirrorless i tried.. the pics look somewhat "fake"..

So how do I get back to that, but with a little lighter kit and upgrade in sensor size? I was thinking 850d , small but advanced (it's entry level but 10 years newer than the 60d) R7..not actually so lightweight. And the 30mp sensor might be too harsh with not great lenses? R10..could be a good compromise

Anyway the question is: will i get those great images OOC without tweaking like crazy on each shot?

Sorry I made it too long :/

Is the 5D Mark IV worth it if I'm upgrading from an m50 mark ii with a tight budget? Or should I save up more to get an RF mount body (R6 Mark II, R, RP)

*I currently have an EF 24-70 2.8 L Mark I and an EF 50mm 1.8

Hi all!

I’m looking towards investing in my first pro level camera. I’ve shot with a 5dii and 5diii that I was able to check out from my school library and loved them aside from the fact that they were just a bit big in my hands.

I’m looking for suggestions on a canon to pick up for travel use and maybe pet photography.

My budget is around $1500 usd.

I tried purchasing a body from KEH a few days ago and it charged me and kicked the payment back a number of times, which is why I’m looking for alternative options. I’d like to be able to get a basic lens and body to manage the basics.

Thanks!

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm not sure if the Sigma APO EX 100-300mm F4 lens will fit an R8?

It's a lens I've had for a long time now, (it maybe even pre ef-s mount) and used it on an old 40d, but I'm not sure 100% if it will fit an R8 using a EOS to R Adapter? I think it will, but wanted to confirm before I go ahead and buy the adapter! I''m tempted by the new Canon RF 70-200 F4, but if I can make this work, I can save a far amount of money and put it towards a RF 50mm 1.2... maybe!

Alos keen to hear any opinions on this lens, worth keeping, or should I sell it, if so any idea what it might be worth!!

Thanks.

I’m new to photography and got gifted a canon 50D. I thought I understood what everything does on it already but I guess not, I have an issue with switching between view finders.

Let’s say I’m on the electronic view finder and I want to switch to the “normal” one I press the button to switch but it doesn’t respond or vice versa. It only happens sometimes and I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I have this issue while using manual mode

Hi everyone.

I am purchasing a 500 f4 version 1. I was curious if any one of you have used either camera with the 500f4. I have really been wanting to jump into mirrorless.

I understand I’ll need an adaptor for the r5 and the older lenses. Wildlife photography is my passion and really need to get back into it for my own source of self medication and escape from the world. The reason the 5Dsr is in the picture is i have a chance of getting one for a low price. (I’m also considering flipping the 5d)

What are your thoughts. I know cropping capabilities are roughly the same since 45 and 50mp. What would you choose.

I recently became a parent and I’d like to up my printing game. Usually I only shoot landscapes and wildlife, and recently started showing some of my work in small public places, so quality needs to be there for that as well.

Right now I’m using the pixma pro 100 and it’s been great, but i find it struggling to print A3+ properly.

I was looking at the pro 300, pro 1000 and glancing (but not really) at the pro 2600.

I don’t have to stay with canon so if there is something out there that’s better, please let me know.

Hello everyone,

I need help with nightlife photography. I want to give it a shot and also I am a starter in terms of dslr camera handling. I want to ask if someone with knowledge can help in chosing the right gear. I currently have Canon EOS 850d with 18-135mm lens (starter kit).

It would be much help if someone can help me with recommendation for lens and flash since I need it for this kind of photography.

I have an option to buy 17-50mm f/2.8 Tamron and basic 50mm f/1.8 Canon STM. Also I dont know nothing about flash options and want to spend max of 100€ for it.

Any help would be appreciated!😊

I started with a Mamiya SLR, with an incredibly fast shutter speed of 1/500 and a 50mm f2.8 lens. I shot black and white which I developed myself in an honest-to-goodness darkroom. I still have some Kodachrome 25 slides with a horrible dynamic range but awesome color and saturation. Then other SLRs to my first DSLR, The 20D. For it's time was fantastic. My screen saver came from that. Once I had that, I invested in glass, holy crap I did. I have a boat anchor 200mm f1.8 and other professional glass. All things pass including my beloved 20D. Then I went full frame with a 6D, another great camera. My only complaint was the autofocus, but as I mostly shoot landscapes it wasn't a problem. It still works, but it's showing its age as am I, so I went for what will be my last camera in all likelihood and I'm good with that. I'll have it a full week before my daughter's graduation for her PhD. I have the control ring adapter coming as well so all my white lenses, macros, everything can be used.

So i need some help as i'm looking for a canon mirrorless camera as i'm upgrading from my DSLR and i'm not sure which one i should get as i'm looking for a secondhand Canon eos r which is 1.5k AUD which is what i'm looking at but i want a second opinion so if anyone can help it would be appreciated and as well i do wildlife photography and i take photos of planes cars anything with a engine in it i take a photo of as well if that might help

I currently have this bag: https://amzn.in/d/35P0jdk. While it does fit all my gear I need to remove it from my back, lay it down somewhere and then open the whole thing to switch out lense. This makes it hard & sometimes impossible to switch out lenses as it's not very fast & accessible.

I need something that can be fast & easy to take stuff in & out of while walking around. Which also doesn't make me open the whole thing to get a lens I want to take out.

I did look at what PeakDesign has to offer but that is stupidly expensive for a bag. I can't really justify it but on the other hand, it feels like that is my only choice??

I now live in UK and would ideally like something that is under £50.

I have 2 APS-C cameras but with SmallRig cages, 6 EF-M lenses, a mic, a hand held tripod, a case for 6 extra batteries, a case for extra SD cards, a small pouch with cleaning stuff.

Recently got an R50 after a Rebel Xt for years. Love it!

The control ring for exp comp is great. But I just realized with that turned on, I can’t turn on MF. I have the camera set so I need to press the metering button to use the control ring for exp comp. BUT when that’s enabled, I can’t focus. I’d think the point of holding the button to do this means I should be able to use the ring as a focus when not pressed.

Is there any way to use the control ring for exp comp AND manual focus?

I currently only have the 15-45mm kit lenses that it came with and i'm currently looking for any decent lenses for it

Been messing around with a Canon EOS M50 Mark II for a few years now, and looking to snag an upgrade. I primarily shot talking-head for YouTube in the past.

Expanding a bit and looking to also shoot myself in my indoor workspace building things (3d printing/crafting) and product videography. Camera will mostly be sitting on a tripod or stationary, maybe a little gimbal action later on. Plan to shoot in 4k, 30-60FPS (and 120 occasionally I guess). Also a bit of photography on the side for fun (friends/family, pets, and macro shots w/ my lens below)

My budget for body + some glass is around 5-7k.

Current lens collection:

• Sigma 16mm (been using this for YT)
• Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM Lens (macro photography for fun, some product photography)
• Canon Kit Lens... I think 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3?

Was thinking maybe a R5 or R5C, with a 50mm lens + something else? Any advice appreciated.

It won't connect to wifi at all. Not sure what to do. Tried resetting the router,and changing the password. Any advice would be apperciated.

Is this SanDisk sd card compatible for the Canon EOS Rebel T100?

Is it a good sd card or are there better options?

I tried senson cleaning too. But cannot get rid of these dots. Do I need to approach service centre?

I see these deals at Best Buy website. Good for anyone prefer new over refurbished options on Canon Refurbished or just can't order from Canon Refurbished. Personally, I just placed an order on the RF 28 since I want a pancake len for traveling light and I also want to try the 28mm focal length. I think this is the first time that the RF 28 is on sale. Anyone here want to share experience with the RF 28 STM ?

hey! long time lurker, first time poster, but basically in the last year or so I've moved from a hobbyist photographer to starting to do some professional work on tours mainly with DJs in the techno and trance scene. I'm shooting on my R6, and currently mostly work with the nifty fifty (f/1.8) and the 24-105mm f/4-7.1.

I'm looking for a wide angle zoom lens, as a lot of my work is quite close to the artist, usually around them up on (usually surprisingly small) stage especially for video, but my budget isn't massive as I'm only finishing university and don't really have steady income yet. I'm ideally looking for something that has a consistent max aperture no higher than f/4, that has a pretty quick AF for these kinds of high energy scenes.

I've been looking at a few options, and if anyone has any experience with these lenses I'd love to hear your recommendations or if you have any others you would suggest I'd love to hear it! I think I'll need an adapter with all of these but if that wont affect the functionality thats not a problem.

sigma 17-35 f/2.8-4

tamron 24-70 f/2.8

canon ef 17-40 f/4L

thanks!
