    I believe focus bracketing forces use of electronic shutter, and so far among Canon mirrorless bodies only the R3 can use flash at all with electronic shutter.

    The R3 does support focus bracketing...

    There are certainly some EF lenses for which there is no RF analog. I will be keeping my TS-E 17/24 and my MP-E 65, and we'll see when/if Canon offers something in RF to replace them.

    I found that to be true over the holidays, as well. I had the 14-35/4 and 70-200/2.8 handy, but didn’t use them. Last year, I mostly used the 28-70/2 but also needed wider and longer. The size/weight...

    I think it slows down a little with the 2x, but the AF is so fast natively that any difference is barely perceptible.

    I'm sure we'll see a global shutter from Canon at some point. Canon is definitely not an envelope-pusher when it comes to sensors. Personally, I have not had any issues with rolling shutter effects...

    Global shutter comes at a price – noise. According to DPR, Sony claims the a9 III, "...doesn't compromise on ISO performance or dynamic range." Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I suppose they...

    The R3 can do a RAW burst at up to 195 fps. Useful for water drops and not much else for me.

    Affordable reach, even for FF, is a great and really unique attribute of the R system. The RF 100-400 is inexpensive (especially timed right, I paid $500), and optically it’s nearly as good as the RF...

    For me, the RF 24-105/2.8 addresses a long-running quandary of wanting more range on the long end vs wanting a wider aperture for my standard zoom. I've had both the EF 24-105/4L and the EF...

    The crop UWA zoom is an important part of the kit for some. I use M-series bodies for travel, and the M11-22 is my most-used lens on them (followed closely by the M18-150, which was among the first...

    Nope, Bryan's comparison is not valid, because Canon changed the way they plot MTFs in 2018. The big clue is the old format has 8 lines and the new format has only 4 lines, you cannot compare the...

    That's what I'd do, as well. But I'd suggest Loctite Blue because if it doesn't work you'll want to be able to remove it!

    If that doesn't work... I use RRS replacement feet on my EF 600/4 II and...

    The APS-C : FF ratio was ~9:1 for many years, but over the past few years it has shifted to ~7:1. That is certainly consistent with a greater fraction of people buying more expensive cameras, but...
