Ken53's current gear

Canon PowerShot G15
Canon PowerShot SX50 HS
Canon PowerShot SX60 HS
If I could have only one camera, this would be it.
A great "Super Zoom" with a rare sensor.
Like the SX50, but much faster, more feature rich, way better video and way more ergonomic.
Canon EOS 70D
Canon EOS 7D Mark II
Canon EF 100-400mm F4.5-5.6L IS II USM
Its just OK. Noisy after ISO 800. Wouldn't buy again. Micro Focus Adjust is great.
Canon EF-S 10-18mm F4.5–5.6 IS STM
Canon EF-S 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 IS STM
Canon EF-S 18-135mm F3.5-5.6 IS USM
The 10mm end of this lens is amazing.
Good range without compromising quality. Wish it would be wider though.
Tamron SP 150-600mm F5-6.3 Di VC USD G2
Canon Pixma Pro-100
Paint.net
Lean yet versatile.
Microsoft Surface
Full functioning HD PC, even more so when docked.
Other gear:
  • Adobe Photoshop CS6
  • Affinity Photo
  • Canon 270EX
  • Canon 430EX Wish I bought the 530EX. Can never have to much flash power.
  • Digital Photo Professional 4 Raw Editor. Does a professional job minus the fluff.
  • Microsoft Photo Gallery Great editor. More powerful then it appears.

Needed F8 to be just OK at 300mm on a crop body.
At 400mm it is a bright F5.6, this alone sets this lens above its competition. Lots of pics and enjoyment from this lens.
Canon Pixma  MP970
Complete Photo Lab. Scanned film and used six colors. Excellent output. Wish I could buy another.
