Hi Folks,

I am thinking about upgrading from a DSLR to a R7 for macro work. Ive been reading lots of threads about the R7 - mostly used for sports or birding. The issues seem to be more with fast moving subjects and the ES and EFCS (rolling shutter), noisy mechanical shutter and vibration. One application I plan on will be with LED lighting indoors (flash not available with EFCS). However, one of the cons noted was banding with artificial lights. So, I curious if anyone has had experience with LED lights and the R7 or other R bodies and EFCS. Thanks!

No issues whatsoever in using my R7 indoors, with practically any kind of lighting on EFCS. Even the "dreaded" weird bokeh - I couldn't reproduce it for the life of me.
