My traditional happy place is shooting wildlife with telephoto lenses, although I have shot landscapes and some interiors with lenses down to the EF 17-40L, it's been a rare occurrence. Recently I decided to expand my efforts and take advantage of t...

Anyone following this site for any length of time will be aware of the controversy among some about the performance of Sigma lenses, and in particular the 150-600 Contemporary, working (or not) on the R-series bodies.This has led to calls for Canon t...

Wow... Canon Rumors on RF 200-500 f/4 + 1.4x extender This would be an awesome lens and would silence a few of those demanding an answer to Sony and Nikon lenses of similar FL. The integrated extender would allow fast switching to achieve that extra...

As is usually the case, I went to my favourite haunt, the zoo, and dodged some heavy showers as I went between locations and shelters. As always the images were hand-held in available light.I went around the circuit in the opposite direction to norm...

I understand. I am from a military family myself and did my time, and I had drummed into me "look after your gear and it will look after you", and I still hold to that with my camera gear, which is always immaculate. It's hard, I understand... Yep...

It's tempting to look at the gear one has and feel that it should be worth a lot, but the honest fact is that camera bodies become obsolete very quickly and while lenses are less prone to that, when one considers the issue of switching to different ...

The new lens RF100-300 is short on focal range for a start, which is much more important for wildlife, especially with macro mammals. As I said there should be plenty of light normally. If you are intending to shooting in very low light, I would re...

Thanks for responding.I would suggest retaining the kit lens and renting the 100-500L lens if you can afford it. I would NOT get the 100-400 with extender for a couple of reasons:1) extenders generally reduce the image quality and of course you lose...
