Re: My R7 arrived

Thanks, I am excited to get to understand it. I was all set to get the R5 then they announced the R7 and for the price I thought was a good one to get into mirror less without breaking the bank. I was worried about the size but really not much smaller than my 90D . Yes the view finder is great especially since I can tell how the scene is exposed, but I do have one issue. My glasses are polarized so my first test shots were over exposed because looked dark with my glasses on lol. When they say sticky autofocus they aren't kidding, the turkey was running and the focus stuck to it's head like glue. The one thing I am a bit weary of is the screen although beautiful playback seems cheaply made doesn't feel as robust as the 80 and 90D screen. Yes I did get the lens but I never took it out of the box yet. I may try it at the Fly in/ car show I attend in September.
