Did you know that the North American and European 'Robin' are completely different birds? Typically-tame English Robin.

I did this when the forum name changed to '200D....'. No response, and no action!

I have the 24-105 f4, the 16-35 f4 and also the 70-200 F4, and I also do travel and landscape photography. Like you, I thought that the 16-35 would be the ideal lens. In fact, I've found it a ...

But the import is still into Photos? **sigh** If I could import direct into Lightroom CC it would all be so much easier. (If Adobe sorted out the Lightroom CC to Lightroom CC Classic workflow!)

There’s a really good article by Roger Cicala of Lens Rentals here . It’s almost 10 years old now, but it ought to be on everyone’s reading list.

Purely as an amateur user, I’ve bought OEM batteries in recent years (in the U.K., where I think we have a different set of 3rd party suppliers). I found that the 3rd party batteries were ...

No question that the Canon produces the sharpest results wide open when tripod-mounted, but I have seen a couple of reviews that suggest that in real-world situations - hand-held, wide open, slow ...

Looks as if my lens - the one used to take the pictures in the 'Example Images' post - is the first version. It has the flower symbol and not the word 'Macro', it has 'Lens Made in Japan' on the ...

You know, I can’t explain that. I see that the focal length was 35mm, so it wasn’t wide open, and the aperture was f6.3 so again not at the widest. There wasn’t a lenshood on it, nor a filter of ...

Here’s an image taken with a 5DIV and an old (film era) 28-105 f3.5-f4.5. Bakewell, Derbyshire. Viewed from the churchyard. I’ve had this lens for almost 25 years. It was almost the kit lens for ...

That does make quite a difference! Two further choices, therefore. If you really prefer longer lenses then one of the 24-105s might be good. The Mk 1 version of the L lens might be within your ...

Compared to full-frame lenses, Canon APS-C is rather short-changed in terms of IQ from mid-range zooms. It's certainly not short-changed in terms of choice - there's a plethora of lenses, ...

I bought a 5D4 in December, as an upgrade from a 6D and I'm glad I did. I'm an amateur  who mainly does landscapes and travel. I enjoyed the 6D but found myself increasingly dissatisfied with the ...

Thanks - I hadn’t spotted that section. I’ve not had the camera long, and in any case this is the first time I’ve had one that took two cards so the actual concept of copying images from one card ...

Graham: How did you perform the "...backing up to the second"?

I’ve just bought my first CF card in years which means that I now have two cards installed in my 5D4. I’ve had great fun trying out all the config options. I’m going with Raw+S1 jpg, written to ...

I have two thoughts on this question. First, I think that the two lenses are completely different animals. That extra 35mm on the 24-105 makes a huge difference - you can get shots with the one ...

I've been wondering about that, too. In fact I can see advantages to that, especially as the slots on the 5DIV are CF and SD, not two SD. The SD slot is not terribly fast - UHS1, not UHS2. So ...

Thanks for the reply, Dave. I had wondered about setting the JPG resolution differently from the Raw file resolution - full size for Raw, and 1920 x 1280 for the jpg. I can't quite bring myself to ...

As other have said, there a very high degree of compatibility between the components of the EOS system. All that passes from the camera to the lens are instructions - the technology that the lens ...
