Unlike with Canon's MFA process, the Sigma version (using their dock) allows you to make separate adjustments by distance to subject. I've found that once I go through this more complex process of ...

You can save settings for one body and the other, and swap them, although this is far from convenient. My own strategy is to do the Sigma dock process with one body, which brings the lens into a ...

If it were the case that AFMA was merely a lens adjustment, it would be logical that a different body or adding a teleconverter wouldn't change the needed adjustment. But that does not appear to ...

It appears to work the same with Canon and Nikon. Here's the issue... The dock adjustment allows *one* setting to be placed in the lens. If you need two different settings for different ...

With the Canon system, using in-camera AFMA, yes you do need to do an independent calibration with the TC. The data is stored with the camera, not the lens. The dock complicates things. For that, ...

Fishy, my kids. When indoors, these young kids run around very, very close to me. Some of the best opportunities to capture them are when their pulling my legs, or interacting with each other in ...

Owned the 7d2, a few 1dxs and now a couple 5d4s. The quick version: In general, the 5D4 will be better than the 1dx in almost every capacity. Low light, image quality, etc. It is, however, inferior ...

I too dropped one of my 5d4s to concrete. Suffered a scrape on case that dig into the magnesium. It was the first day that were released. Shrugged it off and was never an issue. Also had to scrape ...

Yeah, except they only sell black and yellow ink, and let people use third party inks with adapters for red and blue :)

Bought one used for $550. It is a really nice lens, one of my favorite among the Art series (I own 4). I appreciate that the 24 - 70 is a pretty nice zoom, but image quality difference at the same ...

The original poster showed that DXO is showing a lens-camera score that appears to be wrong based on all other objective measures and personal experience. I know of no other source that concludes ...

The only thing I can think of is that the dxo methodology relies on camera-specific setup, and they did a poor job of optimizing the focus adjustment to this particular body. There are other ...

Surprised to see so many design choices copy the Canon model so slavishly. Not that it's a bad one. Just has a certain Yongnuo effect when you see things like the foot and pre-focus buttons, color,...

I also have it. Like it very much. I also have the Really Right Stuff super nice version that cost about 8x as much. Like the rrs version best, but it is not worth 8x certainly. I also own several ...

Pete, I think lenses are less of an issue with a system nowadays. I shoot 80 percent of my stuff on third party glass that is equal or better than the first party alternatives. There are some ...

Have to agree. I just bought Photo Mechanic because the promised performance upgrade with Classic wasn't really detectable on my rig. I now cull in PM and then import the 30-40 percent that are...

That depends, Victor. If you're just doing an outside cleaning, Canon will often do this for free, especially if you're a CPS member. I think they'll give you something like 5 body/lens cleanings ...

A few things: 1) This looks to my taste to be a little over-exposed. People might disagree, and that's not the main problem here. 2) Focus wasn't achieved. For whatever reason, there is nothing in ...

Good luck with the repair! I know how hard it is to let go of that awesome lens. I had mine cleaned for the first time a couple weeks ago, and even though it was gone for only 5 days, I missed it ...

I think that Canon likely hasn't put out a 1.4 because the design they tested wasn't as good as the new (spectacular) competition, and they didn't want to swallow their pride and admit that their ...
