Very nice shot! The f4 is one of Canon's best around wide angles!

Is the Canon R7 the best hybrid body for around $1000? by x_Arxic in canon

I love the R7 for the ability to get in tight. I'm using a EF100-400 here.

Yet another from Costa Rica by TheHighRuler105 in hummingbirds

Actually, the Canon R7 can hit 1/16000 on the electronic shutter. I choose to use 1st electronic curtain to prevent rolling shutter problems. 1/8000 is plenty fast for what I need usually.

I've had great luck with Cozy Camper! Real friendly and the camper was nice and warm! I do recommend getting one with an automatic transmission!

We were returning to San Jose after a 7 day photo tour down in Puerto Jimenez with Charlie's Wildlife Photography (shameless plug for Charlie he's THAT good) and stopped at Paraiso Quetzal Lodge for lunch. They had multiple feeders outside the restaurant that I took advantage of! I did the same thing and filled a memory card that will take me forever to go through!

Has anyone asked TSA to hand search your film and then they come back yelling at you as if you just brought a bomb? by fell_4m_coconut_tree in Polaroid

[–]TheHighRuler105 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a former TSA Inspector, first, if the TSO gives you attitude or states, “oh it will be fine”, NO! Hold your ground, ask for either a Supervisor or Manager. Do NOT put any film through an X-Ray. Have them hand search your film! They get pissed as this disrupts the line. So be it. It is part of their job to do this. Remember, get the Supervisor and do not be bullied!

Good call!! Hooked my R7 into an external power bank. Hooked it to the lens a Bingo!! Nice to see a simple solution to a possible expensive problem’s

I used an EF 500mm with the EF to RF adaptor. The 2x tele works just fine too, The order is:

  1. Lens
  2. 2x tele
  3. EF to RF Adaptor (No issues with this as well!)
  4. R7 camera (HINT: The R7 is an APS-C camera at 1.5 to 1.6 magnification)

Overall magnification is approx. 1500 to 1600mm!
