I'll have to disagree with you here, meaning that I do not think Sony or Canon or Nikon or others will enter this market, unless they have something significantly different up their sleeves. I...

It's a bit of chicken and eggs thing, isn't it though? Prices won't go down if there's no widespread adoption, and there will be no widespread adoption is prices don't go down. Right now, the way...

Sorry I have to disagree. The D800(E) is a great camera and it has possibly the highest potential image quality of the current crop of FF 35mm cameras of any makers, but it has not reached, let...

Ermmm... what MF market? it is pretty much nil outside high-end fashion/publicity shoots. And even those are slowly but surely moving towards 35mm and video. I've rented MF digital backs for a...

Thanks :)I love the WHF

Guido, bellissime foto complimenti (sul tuo sito) :) I started with the 17 as well because I had a 24-105 (now sold). But the TS 24 is like another planet compared to the...

I have been at WHF a number of times and I confirm that it is a heaven for big cat lovers and photographers alike. It's worth to visit every so-so since new "guests" arrive all the time and they...

Ciao Guido I have both and they're both exceptional performers. I'd say that the 24 is slightly more versatile and has a tiny image quality advantage and it can take filters more easily and cheaply...

For event and wedding photography I'd get the 70-200 first and add a 35mm or 28mm prime to your bag. Unless you are really space constrained or have to take photos of oceanic crowds, the 70-200...

Not to mention the abysmal battery life of digital backs :)

I'll keep that in mind for the next time :)

Silly me for having used a 60mp MF digital back at my last shoot.
I could have saved rental money and a lot of sweat by using this phone and I would have lost only 33% of the resolution!
Who...

I agree with you wholeheartedly... with the caveat that certain topics do not necessarily need image "proof" of credibility of the poster. When I participate to a thread about photo technique (e.g....

Troll.   Back to take photos with my clearly doomed Canon equipment

Thanks to all the people that have written. I've tried again and this time after a lil' bit of pushing it clicked! After that it connected and disconnected normally. Go figure.

Been migrating from zooms to primes myself in the last 2 years (since I've started with fashion photography). Me too I was worried about the lack of IS but quickly discovered that it did not have a...

No need to apologize, no damage done :) The 200 f/2L is an amazing lens but cost, weight and size are drawbacks... if you are looking at it for the IS perhaps you'd be better served with the new...

Understood. I was looking purely for convenience (random photos at a small zoo where my 200 f/2L would have been overkill).I did use the 135 + 1.4x mkIII in the end and the results were good enough

Steve, I'd agree with you but the 200 I have is the f/2L model and it's not a lens I take out for casual shooting. Love it but it is too big and heavy, so I use it only during planned shoots when I...

Thanks Ian, you mean that you mounted the 135 on the 6D and then you had issues with removing it? Maybe I will try again
