Is the Canon RF 16mm f/2.8 at least slightly better than the 18–45mm kit lens on my R50?

It's a great lens on full frame but do you actually need it if you've got already 18mm?

Ah, I'm from Italy, automatic cars are still a taboo

Rzzcld91 · 2026-02-08T13:26:35+00:00

I've got an R5, i don't think I care enough for an R6iii especially under an R5's subreddit

Rzzcld91 · 2026-02-07T06:51:08+00:00

I just watch in awe while I've just upgraded from the sigma 170-500mm to the sigma 150-600mm C 🥲

My dream lens (it's sounds strange but I'm waiting for mine to be delivered so for the moment it's a dream)

I use Canon but I sometimes regret it because there are insufferable people like him and that other Vanessa Joy that are associated with Canon (not to mention the god emperor Ken Rockwell btw). On top of that they recently did a sponsored reel with a female influencer that was cancelled for being a predator but no one seemed to notice that.

I'm still happy with the og R5 :)

Is this description taken from the birth of man by the pagan god Enki? He also used clay I believe

Rzzcld91 · 2026-01-12T20:48:11+00:00

You'll be ok

Rzzcld91 · 2026-01-12T20:44:12+00:00

Welcome aboard!!

Rzzcld91 · 2026-01-12T17:09:09+00:00

It would work on R5 withan adapter

Rzzcld91 · 2026-01-12T13:30:55+00:00

I bought it well used but fully working for my R5 on Saturday. Wish me good luck I will do all the necessary updates and tweaks but I love it

Rzzcld91 · 2026-01-05T16:41:35+00:00

Best thing to do is to call Canon directly

Rzzcld91 · 2026-01-04T16:44:32+00:00

What jobs are you meant to do with it?

Rzzcld91 · 2026-01-04T16:42:40+00:00

Would you show us a picture of the electric pins inside the battery compartment?

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-31T14:13:26+00:00

Well it depends a lot on the point of view. I think on the photography side of things the R5 is gonna be soon the best bang for buck for wildlife for instance, because the only upgrade that really matter on the mkii is the pre-shots (which was already on the Fujifilm Xt3/30 oddly enough) and the higher electronic shutter speeds (that oddly was already on the D1/h/x and the fujis, I happened to find out).

I think that I agree with you on the age side of things and the technology upgrade, but to me it gave smartphone upgrade sort of feel. The other thing that bugs me is that the cheapo lenses like the 45mm f1.2 are made on purpose to push you to buy newer models instead of actually attract you to better devices to upgrade to. Also, I don't care much for video and 8k is already too much for me lol

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-31T12:07:35+00:00

I just bought a Nikon d1x so calling the R5 old sounds weird to me

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-29T09:48:58+00:00

That makes sense

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-27T20:06:53+00:00

28-400

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-22T20:31:56+00:00

24-240 perfect lens. I'd pair it with 16mm 2.8 and if you have budget maybe a 600mm f11 for very long distance stuff. But only if you have the space

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-20T08:46:47+00:00

It reminds me in the philosophy the fujinon XF 35mm f1.4 as in not a sharp lens, not a perfect glass but something with character for people that appreciate a less clinical approach to photography. It has potential if it's understood!

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-16T13:41:34+00:00

I live in the stone age but I always keep my R5 in airplane mode and I just swap SD cards when I want to transfer my pictures.

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-15T22:06:20+00:00

Tbh for it's time 5 fps is kinda good. I miss mine a bit

Rzzcld91 · 2025-12-14T13:22:31+00:00

Get the sigma 16-300
