I just received an email notice from Canon that the original EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L USM will reach the end of service life on June 30, 2026. While it's always a bit sad to know a product you own is at the end of its service life, I can't complain since ...
I'm working on compiling some photos of Lake Michigan lighthouses for a client. If you are not from around here, you may not know that Michigan has 129 lighthouses, which is more than any other state. I don't have photos of all of them (yet) but I h...
A friend of mine was recently gifted a Canon R7 camera by her fiancé, to replace her old and tired Fujifilm camera. She has asked for some help from me on understanding a lot of the (new to her) menu since she knows I shoot Canon. I've been able to...

Oh, I know that very well. End of service life means I just go to one of the camera repair shops in my general area. I simply posted this as a heads up for anyone else who owns this lens so they know to do the same. I know that this lens will probabl...
Personally, I've never really needed the IS or IBIS. I've got those turned off 98% of the time... even when I'm shooting sports for a client. When this lens dies, I'm just as likely to search for a used one of this same model. I've been that happy wi...
Thank you! So you recognized that second shot of the inner light at GH. I've got quite a few of the pier and lighthouses there covered in ice and snow. It's a little more difficult these days since they close the pier when the weather gets like this....
