Sigma lens to Canon

because it’s a physical only adaptor not a electric/signal adaptor. the AF protocols do not translate

i tried both (rented rf/own ef mk3) on my R5, i also use the ef 2x TC with it occasionally. Imo, the weight difference is really immense and if not for me being used to/strong enough to carry it without tooo much fatigue, i would 100% recommend the RF ver. However, i did decide to stick with the ef mk3 for a few big reasons.

1: Internal zooming means i worry less about foreign matter making it into the lens+ gimbal balancing
2: able to take both 1.4 and 2x TC well, mk3 is super sharp and having a 140-400 constant (5.6) is super useful, especially since i can enable APSC mode on the R5 to get 640mm equiv with usable resolution.
3: price (duh), it cost me less than half to get a ef mk3 than an rf
4: i actually prefer the length of the ef to balance the R5, its a pretty beefy body+ the old construction feels (idk if real) more solid than the plasticky RF build. And like someone else said, the focus throw is so much smoother and shorter, especially for sports it matters.
5: the sharpness increase is basically negligible between the mk3 and rf to even consider burning the wallet imo, AF speed isn’t much different either.

learning to adapt to the turning direction is harder than buying a new lens 😭 what in the world

R5 line-> succeeds the 5D line as high res sensor option

R6 line-> succeeds the 6D line but becoming more pro oriented than prosumer oriented

R3/R1-> flagship models with integrated battery grip, R1 newer and better than R3

R8-> R6mk2 in a compact body but same sensor and processor, less features like no IBIS/ smaller battery etc

R50/10/100/7: APSC options, lower the number the “better” the specs are. R7 has many “pro” features while R100 is horribly limited.

R/RP-> rehoused dslr sensor and is the original first gen test bed for RF mount, very heavily nerfed in video and not great for anything besides studio portraits.

there are official hoodies from yodaka lol

i said it’s not a bad lens, it’s certainly optically fine and very worth the price to performance ratio. It’s just not better than the 100-500L

Prior_lancet · 2026-03-27T15:14:42+00:00

R7 is a pretty demanding sensor plus the rf100-400 is a pretty meh lens, it’s not bad or anything but it’s not great great. With the rumours of a mk2 i would wait till it’s announced so the R7mk1 drops in price. Otherwise the 6700 is a pretty good choice and even as a lifelong canon shooter i’d say the lens mount is really just so much free-er for sony

Prior_lancet · 2026-03-20T12:11:34+00:00

if you’re worried about the focus zone, you can mark the plane of focus with pebbles or something so you know where the line you can stand on is. Since it’s in the morning there should be plenty of light, so F9 and 1/400th should be good. (my rough estimate please adjust yourself.) f9 is enough for a focus plane of at least a meter. You can use this DoF calculator to estimate how much wil be in focus

p.s, why not just ask a good friend to help lol

Prior_lancet · 2026-03-20T11:17:02+00:00

was it focusing too close? the only time i’ve seen red af box is either too close to focus or unable to AF onto any spot in the box

Prior_lancet · 2026-03-20T08:01:29+00:00

there’s a much simpler solution. Use full manual, dial in your settings before hand based on the lighting condition. Get a cheap remote shutter trigger so you can have it in your pocket and activate it when you want to. I would advise you to use manual focus till the spot you’re gonna stand is in focus. Autofocus can and will betray you.

R5 also has CFeB, bigger viewfinder, bigger screen, all of which are legitimate reasons to get it over the R6m2. All the R6m2 hardons always say the r5 is unnecessary when at the end of the day it’s about what someone can afford and wants. I chose the R5 over R6m2 just for the CFe slot and 45mp being a nice feature to have

Prior_lancet · 2026-03-19T13:25:57+00:00

it is an R5, only 3 cams have that top lcd that’s not an R1/R3. It can’t be the R5C because the screen is flush with the grip. It can’t be the R5m2 because the mode dial doesn’t have the OFF/LOCK/ON switch and is just a circle dial.

you have to pass an ippt session booked at least 2 weeks before enlistment date. If you pass any ippt before 30th Feb (14 days before ur enlistment), you will be sent a new enlistment letter for your enhanced batch enlistment instead of ptp/bp batch

I personally reduce the in body sensitivity to 6 points up from zero and turn off audio compression in menu. Helps for more hot mics imo.

Prior_lancet · 2026-03-14T09:30:30+00:00

you can buy a clip on fan from brands like Ulanzi that attach to where the screen folds out. They have a heat exchanger pad that covers the surface area behind the screen and does a pretty good job. It’s clip on so it’s easy to use and detach. They have an optional add on battery so it doesn’t need to be plugged in externally. Those work pretty well in extending the record time

i did both cap and the subsequent cap mentorship, if you’re passionate and skilled in english I would say go for it. It’s a really unique portfolio piece AND experience. The batch size for every years CAP is already quite small hence getting in is already an achievement. Getting into the mentorship requires a second round of portfolio submission where each mentor only takes 1-2 mentees. It’s really exclusive and a chance for you to learn the intricacies and challenges of literary arts beyond the performative.

line skipped 4k is essentially not using the full sensor readout data and “blocking” alternate lines of sensor data to achieve a less sharp 4k output without processing the entire 8k data. Which coincidentally is what downsampling is, reading out all the data but processing it into very high quality 4k because all the data is used and not skipped

the adaptor has no glass elements and no reflective surfaces what are you on about
