In theory, it will work as a flash regardless of which lens you have. If it has range enough, that is. Then it doesn't matter if you tape it to the lens.

The 600 EX-RT, as well as the 600 EXII-RT, do support both radio and optical wireless communication. The do that in both master and slave modes. But you have to set the slaves to be optical on the ...

It depends on which wireless method you use. Your camera is too old to know about radio remote flash control. That only works by setting it up on the flash units, or by using a newer camera, like the ...

iTR is applicable to viewfinder shooting, and only for cameras with high resolution light meters. The first model supporting this is the 1DX . Older Canon cameras attempted to track a subject ...

Just set it to "ON". If you use an aperture where diffraction doesn't make much of a difference, the function will not destroy anything.

I still have an EF-S 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 II lying around somewhere here. I don't know why.

I tried the ET-83C , the hood delivered with the EF 100-400 mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM . It fits the EF 85 mm f/1.4L IS USM too. Mine didn't sit tight enough, though, but it's a bit loose on the 100-400 ...

EW-83J , perhaps, from the EF-S 17-55 mm f/2,8 IS USM ? 55 mm on APS-C is about the same as 85 mm on full frame. It's tulip-shaped, but significantly longer at the longest parts. EW-83K fits too. ...

Yes, I see the same thing in the two different 1DX models. The assist point and primary is shown in the viewfinder, only the assist point when looking at the finished photo. Which makes sense, ...

I remember Canon stated, in some interview, that when they first introduced dual pixel AF in live view mode, they had spent months calibrating it to work as good as possible with some 130 ...

You're very welcome. Reading your posts again, it seems you have a very good understanding of how the cameras work. I just misunderstood what you were initially referring to. Happy shooting!

I bought the 1DX and the 1DX Mark II , not because my needs are such that I can't do without. Neither do I take high class photos, like some talented photographers crank out, no matter what task ...

Hahaha, that was a good one. Of course I exaggerated, to make a point, but when you objected by showing examples where the subject either was a doll, or somebody who certainly was alive, but ...

In the 1DX , Canon finally did offer two card slots for the same type of cards, CF. The 1DX Mark II , however, can't record 4K video at 60 frames/s on CF cards. That mode requires CFast cards. Now ...

I meant that the thing you missed, the thing I thought you were referring to, was that in some camera models (older and/or simpler), the AF boxes are indeed different, depending on if they are ...

When I use focus and recompose, which I frequently do, I still try to use the nearest AF point, if there's time to select. If there's not, I use what I have and then try to optimize and take one ...

After some experiments, I see what you are referring to. And I also see what you completely missed. Cameras like the 5D Mark IV and 1DX Mark II have two frames indicating each AF point. A larger ...

The 1DX Mark II also supports this feature, but not while shooting. The digital lens optimizer can only be applied when post-processing a RAW image in the camera, producing a jpeg. The other four ...

Hahaha, it seems a pun was definitely intended there!

I'm of the opinion that it's better to teach the best practice, even if people's first thought is something else. In this particular case it's even easier to do it in the order I described it, ...
