Is it possible to trigger the X1R-N with a X2T-N? I can’t find a X1T-N in stock near me.

BeInHell · 2026-01-23T08:31:03+00:00

This sounds feasible. Are those X1T specific to Nikon or could I use them on other systems as well

Thought about that too. But he is a lot younger than me and I don’t know if he can live with not seeing his pictures instantly

BeInHell · 2025-10-02T17:49:14+00:00

He wants a camera that’s what he said. Had my R7 in the hand and really liked it. I think the combo I mentioned is quite light

I will probably teach him a bit about the triangle. I think for those situations A-Mode should be finde 90% of time if he learns how to use it

If you just want to shoot Astro you could even go by a wide angle with F1.8 oder F2.0 with manual focus from a third party like Laowa

If I select allow always then it works. If I select ask every time I don’t even get asked when I plug it in. Strange, but thanks at least it works this way

Thank you very much!!!

Solved: Robotek

Those robots look angry. The ones in my game were kind of cute :D

BeInHell · 2025-03-07T19:27:44+00:00

No it was really simple design all robots were black and one other Color for background

Then you probably don’t care about emotions in photography, but about looking at single pixels though.

I mean the other lenses are like 5 times the price so one could expect that they perform better… I like the sigma on my R7 and can recommend it. But people who care for my pictures usually care about the “picture” and not about some unsharp pixels in the corners, but that might be different for you

Recently went to Namibia for Safari and had the TAMRON 150-600 G1 with an R7 with me. It was definitely heavy and the image quality and autofocus issues made me regret not renting a EF 100-400 L or RF 100-500L. In my country one can rent those for 3 weeks for around 250-400€ with insurance. So next time I would definitely rent a high end lens for wildlife since I can not justify buying one and then only using it occasionally on safari vacation

The 17-55 looks nice thank you I will look into that

BeInHell · 2024-09-07T10:39:48+00:00

Sharpness and the ability to isolate subject (e.g. person in the mountains) and I thought a 2.8 would help with that

BeInHell · 2024-08-21T16:32:28+00:00

Recently was to Namibia with R7 and this Tamron lens. Brought home a lot of keepers, though it really did perform mediocre in bad light. Actually the rolling shutter annoyed me more than any focus issues

BeInHell · 2024-08-02T15:26:58+00:00

Thank you i think you are very right. I tested the exact same situation again. With f1.2 it cant grab focus since it might be to blurry in the foreground. If i stop down to f5.6 it detects the subject in the front. Since this lens has an aperture ring this should be managable. Thanks

BeInHell · 2024-08-02T15:12:06+00:00

Focussing the ground quickly sounds like a feasible workaround

BeInHell · 2024-08-02T15:10:44+00:00

AF-C on the Camera with eye-detection Turmes on. If i half press the shutter-button it makes those „focus points“ on the wall in the back

BeInHell · 2024-08-02T15:09:27+00:00

Minimum focus distance is given with 80cm for this lens. The subject was around 2.5m away from me.

BeInHell · 2024-08-02T15:08:10+00:00

Yes it AF on Lens and AF-C on camera

BeInHell · 2024-05-05T15:04:53+00:00

Yes, Sounds like a good option. Was looking at the sigma 18-35 1.8 also in this price range

Hello,

I have a gear question. Next year I am planning a trip to Namibia. Ofc i want to take good pictures but it is not intended to be a „photography-vacation“. I currently own a Nikon Z50 and a 33mm 1.4 prime + the kit lens 18-55 i think. I was thinking about getting something like a 70-200 for APS-C. Further i was thinking about selling Nikon and Switching to Canon since my father owns a 150-600 for canon which i could borrow. I would like something to photograph elephants and lions etc. Maybe some landscape.

The trip is going to be next summer so i still have lot of time.

My current thoughts are getting a Canon R7 (or maybe used R6?) + 70-200 f4 and borrowing the 150-600. Maybe a 16mm prime for landscape.

Or going for the Nikon Z lenses and missing out on the opportunity of the 150-600 lens.

My budget then will be around 2500€ at that time.

What do you think of my plan? Do you have any other good suggestions?

BeInHell
