I agree with you on the value of a trip to some great place, but I'd much rather have a 5D4 than a 6D on any trip I plan to take.  However, the reason I don't buy a 1Dx2, now that I have a 5D4, is ...

How many people really need a new camera?  I bought the 5D4  because I wanted it and my 6D goes all must unused. I paid a lot more than you would have. And I don't regret buying the 5D4 at all. I ...

I'd wait to see what the body offers.  I think the first body is just a quickie to signal that Canon is entering the ML FF market. Save your cash to get the best they can offer.

Have you ever shot with a ML camera?  I bought a Sony RX10m4 this summer, which can really rip off the FPS, but it doesn't match a traditional DSLR for action like BIF.  If there is a bird flying ...

Is the 600 f/4 iii a DO lens?  If not, how did they get the weight down?

I suggest you first get off of spot and just use a the single, normal center point. Then you need to make sure your shutter speed is high enough for the focal length you are using.  You have told ...

I'm not complaining...it's what we have and what we must use. Still, if I could get 500mm without the TC, I think, given lenses with similar engineering levels (I want a 400DO2 level lens), I will ...

Ok, I get your point (finally). I was just trying to say that Nikon has done it, so Canon surely can as well, economies and all.  I'm greedy, so I don't want to see a f/6.3 lens. The f/5.6 is very ...

Nikon is doing it for $3200, so there is no need for any economies at f/5.6 for a 500mm DO.  Man, if Canon doesn't do the right thing it may be time to seriously consider jumping ship (well, after ...

But I think a 500mm f/5.6 DO would out perform a 400 DO II with a 1.4xTC. I want one too.  At $3200, that is almost enough to cause me to get a D850 and a 500 PF from Nikon. I don't like using ...

Some of these DSLRs have significantly beefed up features for video these days. Also, I have seen some very well done DSLR videos.  The reason these 'hybird" cameras have become popular is because ...

You think Sony will, or can, continue yearly updates to these cameras?  I don’t believe they can or will. So, perhaps we will see some firmware/feature updates where it makes sense.

Sure.  It looks good. Remember, though, to keep your clips to less than 10 seconds...people get bored real quick looking at static scenes for even that long.  So, you need to learn how to shoot ...

Nice work. I think you proved the case for the rx10m4.

You probably can edit 4k video on your gear. You don’t need to view 4k video to edit it. You can upload to say youtube where others can watch in 4k. However, there will be few people viewing in 4k.

Ed - thanks much for the detailed explanation. I will probably try one od these in the upcoming months.  I have not done any BIF with my rx10m4 as there are no birds around right now.

How does that help with birds in flight? I don’t understand how these devices work. Thanks for any info.

Thanks for mentioning this. I was planning on doing some milkyway shots this weekend so this is a great extra. I just hope the weather holds up so I can see some sky.

That camera could last for 400,000 shutter clicks. No way to know. Just be honest and tell him that up front.

I think these things are called stabilizing gimbals as opposed to what are gimbal tripod heads. I have the former kind for my phone and the latter type for my tripod. I have watched many youtube ...
