    i wasn't the one hoping for a 24-70/4, but the new 28-70/2.8 is a pass for me. Never say never, but I won't pre-order it. Small, light, good IQ and...

    Not long ago I bought a used Canon EF 400mm f/2.8L IS II in great condition off of eBay (it was pristine). For kicks, I took it outside to the street...

    Yep. It's running the most recent firmware. It's impossible to shoot it at anything but f/1.4 and locks up the camera if you try to change apertures...

    I own the Canon EOS R, EOS R6, EOS R5, and the EOS R3, and I've yet to purchase a RF-series lens. I thoroughly enjoy the benefits of adapting EF...

    Yikes! Could have been much worse. I’ve been lucky, I’ve only ever dropped one lens, my EF 70-200/2.8 II. Ironically, that happened as I was taking...
