Myer

I learned a long time ago that whenever a camera is sent in for service, the first thing they do is reset the settings to factory. That's to make sure there aren't any combinations of setting ...

It's a decision. I knew DSLRs would be phased out and I wasn't ready for mirrorless. I had misguided hope that maybe the 90D would do the job. 80D vs 90D is a big difference in sensor megapixels. Y ...

It cost me $400 and is due back tomorrow. Over the phone the person read things like electronics, shutter button, shutter menaism, etc. I won't let it bother me. The price of an expensive hobby ...

I just sent in my 7D Mark II after only two years. Half shutter depress wasn't working. I got the same $400 charge. The camera is due back tomorrow so the details will be printed but I called and ...

I have not used the 80D. However, I have both the 70D and 90D. I also have a 7D Mark II that I use for all my daylight action shots. That mean birds in flight, kit boarding, horse jumping, polo, ...

Thanks. I think I've decided to send it to Canon. I tried Back button. I gave myself a month and just couldn't get used to it. Thanks again for the idea.

Thank you. I suspect now the cost would be more but still worth it. There's a very well regarded camera repair shop about a half hour from me in North Miami. I have to decide whether to send it to ...

Two years ago I purchased a new 7D Mark II. I am very satisfied with the results. Today I was out shooting and noticed something. I shoot a lot of action such as Birds in Blight. My default is to ...

Action such as Birds in Flight tend to separate the men from the boys.

I don't know the person who was near me who had that problem focusing. I don't know the settings on the R7 and I don't know the person so I won't be able to go any further with the issue he has. ...

You sure didn't ask your 90D to do much. How about birds in flight?

I have a 7D Mark II. I use the following settings for action (a lot of birds in flight). AI Servo Fast burst Single point center plus 4 helpers focus. I have the AF On button set to switch to One ...

I was originally using a 70D. I started having some trouble with it. I wasn't ready to move to mirrorless (start of 2020) and it became obvious there would be no 7D Mark III. The R7 was just a rumor. ...

I happened to be at a wetlands park and I saw an osprey way off in the distance. I swung up my camera and shot a short burst. While the bird took up way to little of the frame I could see that the ...

Beautiful photos. But what I'd really like to see is how well you do with a variety of birds-in-flight.

Thanks. A lot to digest.

Thank you. Digesting.

Thank you. You bring up a very good point about why I'm thinking of an R7 at all. While it's always nice to only need one body I don't mind my current situation. I don't know if my hiking days are ...

Thank you for the reply. Part of my approach (I should have included this) is that I don't trust Canon to get right on the first try. So now I have to guess is a couple of years of using what I ...

Do you love it when some just feel they have to become insulting. Obviously there won't be a 7D III but I'm looking at my situation. For me, autofocus (getting sharp action photos) and less noise ...
