On my m5 I just tried my s55-250 and ef f4 70-200 in all three focusing modes and they focus fine.  The m5 when it comes to focusing in good light and especially bad light is not speedy like my ...

I did the same yesterday on some flowers.  On my m5 with the 28mm M macro set at manual focus, manual exposure (500th of a second I think at f8 (maybe faster s-stop) and I had the lens light on.  ...

I use Clorox Germicidal wipes for my annual ant invasion.  I use the wipes on surfaces where the ants attack whatever they find to eat. I do have a question using the canon m-macro lens.  What ...

They implied Canon is going to be serious about the mirrorless segment starting from high volume segment first (low end) and then work their way up.  As a m5 user this sounds great for me.  The ...

For Canon this is a business decision which means: how can they sell a bunch of new mirrorless cameras besides the m without messing with their base. And allowing their base s users and full frame ...

Actually, I thought the same thing about micro adjust af.  I did it some, but it was a pain. When I started to use my canon 80d I noticed a big difference in the sharpness of my images when I used ...

To me besides size and weight mirrorless has the following advantages: 1.  No more micro af for each lens/camera 2.  What you see out of the evf or lcd is what you get.  For some types of ...

Take almost any lens in good light on a M with live view; the lens sharpness will beat the same lens on a dsrl where one has not micro adjusted the af properly.  Af speed is a whole different ...

As you said this is not a quality (image) fight nor about any of us current dsrl or mirrorless users.  It is not about high end users, professional or not. This is about Canon trying to grow their ...

If I was Canon I would try their strategy of providing less expensive more attracted beginner dsrl's/mirrorless to counter smartphone's eating into their camera sales.  But, I am not sure how ...

It will.  That is why in short order, in my opinion, canon will announce a replacement for the M5 maybe called M5II Bp

It is clear that Canon's strategy against smart phones is to have relatively inexpensive dsrl and dsrl mirrorless cameras with feature sets designed for new dsrl users. How effective will this be? ...

Actually, in one shot mode with my stm s55-250 with shutter held half way down I can manual focus.  In servo manual focus it does not work unless I turn the lens itself to manual and then it does ...

Why don't you guys look at his web site www.birdsasart.com  I have taken lots of photo classes from lots of different famous photographers over the years.  As far as bif, he has from my ...

I have not used Nikon gear and don't know the differences.  I am told that Nikon gear is somewhat more expensive than Canon, but I don't know for sure.  I am happy with my Canon gear.  I hike ...

I thought that dpr's af review of the new Nikon af system was not accurate when they said it was the best of full frame af system for fast moving objects.  But, with one of the best known bif ...

Agree

When hiking with a group and need a wider angle lens, this is my goto lens.  But, I found it isn't as sharp as my s55-250is lens each at the long end taking a flower or ant or whatever close up.  ...

I get good results for my eye anyway using the s55-250 is lens.  It is sharp close in and far away at all focal lengths in good light.    bp
