My experience is exactly the same.  I just finished a vacation to the national parks in the SW USA, and found the 15-45 to be the perfect walk about and hiking lens.  And I was surprised to find ...

You should be aware that the IS on this lens does not help much with macro.  This is well documented.

My 100mm L macro dwarfs my M6, but I have a tripod ring on it (cheap to buy) so it doesn't matter.  I do almost all my macro shooting with tripod, since at close up mags, camera shake is a real ...

I suspect the bigger problem is arbitration: Please be advised that this User Agreement contains provisions that govern how claims you and we have against each other are resolved (see "Disclaimer ...

Just finished two weeks of exploring/hiking in the US SW with my new M6ii.  I found both the 15-45 and the 11-22 so light that one was in my pocket while I used the other.  My pocket would have an ...

My favorite flower.  Comes back every year with waaay too many seedlings, but the extras are easy to pull.  And, it plays well with other plants since it's got a pretty open structure.

You can also put on lots of exposures with deep stacks.  They can have several hundreds per run, and the exposures are handled by software - no photographer effort involved.

What don't you like about the m6ii?  What do you like better about other systems like Sony? In terms of everything I've read, if you want crop, then the m6ii is fully competitive with competing ...

I purchased 2 Wasabis last month for my new M6ii.  Both fit and work fine, just like the Canon ones.  Camera reads the battery level.  Only difference is that they won't charge in the Canon charger.

I'd suggest a superzoom compact. Here's one of many discussions online: https://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-superzoom-camera/ A lot depends on how much you want to spend. As a newbie, I'd ...

some newer mirrorless have fast focusing.  Check out the reviews of the Canon M6ii for example.  IMHO, the latest generation of mirrorless have largely addressed any focus speed issues. Given how ...

There's no multiplier to "apply".  It just comes automatically from the lens/adapter/camera. One other advantage, though, of using FF lenses on a crop sensor is that you should in most cases avoid ...

The issue is the distance between the lens mount flange and the image sensor. Every camera system, whether Canon, Nikon or other brands, has a specific flange to sensor distance.  The lenses are ...

Not possible without a lens in the adapter.  that's just how optics work. Why would you want to use old FD lenses anyway?  From what I've read (not tested my own yet) few of them are very good.  ...

I recently switched from a Canon 70D to a Canon M6ii.  Best move I ever made.  Just finished a two week trip to the SW USA with a good bit of hiking, and the new camera, with its compact lenses, ...

thank you.  I'll check and move plugins and then delete.

In two words, motion blur. The ND filter allows the shooter to keep a longish exposure without having to use a small F stop (i.e. f16 ) and lose shallow depth of field or pick up diffraction artifacts.

Gee, thanks.  :-x  You're so helpful.

My Creative Cloud desktop lists Photoshop 18.1.5, 19.1.6 and 20.0.7. Why would I want to keep the older versions?  I'm not short of disk space, but I don't even use Photoshop that much, since LR ...

Sniping ruined auctions for me years ago.  That and the move from auctions to storefronts, or whatever you call those buy it now merchants. ebay can be good for obscure stuff, but to me the general ...
