@@alexmatute5228 thank you for your response, I am looking at this model for landscape and portrait photography as well as cinematic short videos. This will be my first camera and I am a beginner. Do you think this is a good choice or should I look at other brand competitor like Fuji and Sony due to limited and expensive lenses for R7? Thank you so much! 😊
@@HelloÁine In my opinion, this would be a good beginner camera. It has good battery life, 2 sd ports, and works with RF lenses. I also don't have any issues with overheating on this camera, as I tend to do with the Canon R6 when shooting 4k video. If you can, and if you want to save some money, get a refurbished one straight from canon. This will save you a few hundred dollars that you can invest on lenses, which are ultimately far more important than a camera body. But if you can only get one lense to start with, I would buy the EF to RF adapter and purchase the sigma 35 1.4 EF for portraits. Then, I would invest on the sigma 18-35 F1.8. Also, canon has a loyalty program, where if you provide a serial code from an old powershot camera, they will give you an extra 10% discount on any of their refurbished products and up to 15% on new. Look for their loyalty phone number online and give them a call. You will have to purchase the camera through one of their reps over the phone though.
I was on the line of either getting this flash and staying in the Neewer ecosystem or going with a Godox, and this solidified my purchase. This video was also very educational!
Goddox Definitely has more options, but their flashes are twice as expensive as neewer. I haven't had any issues using neewer for the las year and a half.
Nice clicks. It was too bright to use a slower shutter, but I would like to have seen a little motion blur. Maybe if you were stopped down to f/22? I don't know. I have the same setup and want to try street photography.
Regarding the "losing focus" issue. It sounds like you shoot at full H+ continous for 15fps photos. Canon themselves recommend changing it to H (I believe that is 7 or 9 fps) for a more stable focus without any hunting in between. It happens as the R7 has the R3 focus setup, however, the R7 does not have the stacked sensor, which makes the focusing a bit slower and a bit less stable. That being said, 15 fps is nice but I tend to have way too many photos anyways, so more often than not I choose the H instead of H+ and thus rarely have issues with focus. I hope above made sense.
I have the same combo but the IQ deteriorates badly at 400 MM especially during the birding. I tried with an R6 Mark II with same result. I tried it with an older full frame Canon camera and the images were very sharp. The camera with its kit lens (18-135) gives me really sharp images (Even through a glass door). I can't figure out how to fix the issue.. took it multiple service centers but no luck. Would you have any suggestions? Would be great if you could share your thoughts. :)
@@incorrigiblesam After having Tamron 100-400 for over two to three weeks I returned it. It was fine with stationary subjects, but not good with birds in flight. I bought a Sigma 100-400 that woks very well Recommended.
I have the Tamron 100-400 which I use with my R6. I keep the setting on auto focus however I found that while it is good when photographing non-moving objects , I still frequently need to use the focus ring to fine tune the focus. If photographing moving objects, I need to use the focus ring and sometimes have issues focusing. Any thoughts?
@@alexmatute5228 The answer to both is yes (back button and animal detection). Further even when photographing non-moving objects, I have found the need to adjust the focus ring to fine tune the focus. I also set with the Tap In Console to the default settings and took any firmware updates.
@@mikeklubok7270 in that case, I dont know what could be going on. I have not had that issue with my copy of the lens. One option would be to rent the same lens for a few days and see if you run into the same issue. If you do, then you can send your copy for a repair.
Thank you for the review. I'm looking at exactly the same pairing and it's good to hear that the AF works without issues. On DSLR it was regularly an problem with Tamrons for me.
Definitely a great lens for the Canon R6. Although, if you want to go native, I believe canon has come out with a similar 100-400 mm RF lens at a similar price range.
@Alex Matute I don't mind adapting since all my current lenses are EF. Also, the Tamron is sealed, better build, and faster. New it costs more, but I'm getting it second hand for the price of RF, so it was a no brainer.
so sorry for the late reply, I have neglected this channel for the last few months. Should be posting more videos soon. But to answer your question, I did use the lumix G9 to film the video I believe it was the panasonic lumix G9 and the Sigma 18-35 f1.8.
Haven't noticed any pulsing, unless there is obstacles in front of the subject, which could lose focus or get lost trying to find it back. But i think that could be more of a camera thing. Over all, I really have enjoyed this lens and has become one of my favorites to this day.
First off great video! What are your thoughts on buying a lens for a newer photographer when trying to decide between the Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 EX DG OS HSM vs. Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 sport. My wife plans to use it primarily for video footage of our son playing lacrosse, but plans to use it for photos as well. The price point difference between the two appears to be around $600 to $800. Based on my research the sport has weather sealing and 11 aperture blades vs 9 blades on the EX, along with some other minor differences (lens length and diameter). Wondering if it makes sense to spend the extra money on the sport version as it would be primarily for sports. We plan on pairing it with a Canon EOS R10. Thanks for your input in advance! Also curious what websites you recommend for buying used camera gear!
I'm debating this lens vs the Sigma 100-400. Thought about the Canon RF 100-400 but It'll only go on the R & R5. My EF-S 55-250 renders as a 400mm on my crops. Also shoot on a 77D and EOS M6ii where the crop will make a 400mm seem like a 640mm, long end or speed boost it to the M6, where it gains, I think, 1 stop. Want something to replace my EF-S 55-250 USM but smaller than the 150-600 G2. Or there's always the RF 100-500 L, lol. Basically I'm down to this or the Sigma.
I was in the same boat before purchasing this lens. I ended up going with the Tamron due to its waterproofing and lightness. Sigma is also a great choice but I think its a bit more expensive.
Exceptionally well done, love the unscripted approach. Please keep up the excellent reviews, your Sub will surely go up! I already subbed & look forward to seeing more of your videos, the location was also an amazing choice btw! Perfect pace overall! 🤩🍾🍻🌟
Appreciate it! Havent had time to create another video lately, been busy with work, but will try to make a review of the sigma Sport 70-200 f2.8 with my R6 soon.
Thank you. My two previous cameras were the canon SL2 and the Lumix g9 with attached canon lenses, that is why my R6 has felt like a dream with its amazing autofocus. I'm sure the R5c is an amazing camera! Congrats on the upgrade!
Definitely! The lumix g9 is a great camera, I love it for video using manual focus, but it does lacks on autofocus! Hopefully panasonic realizes that their cameras could be some of the best cameras on the market, if they only put the effort to fix the autofocus issues.
Thank you for the review. I would be curious to give a fast Canon lens a try, to see if it makes different colors than the M43 lenses. Did you consider the Panasonic 40-150mm ? It is small, cheap and native lens with OIS. Not as fast though. btw Maybe you did already but for those auto focus issue you could try the near and far focus option on the G9. Greatly helps telling the camera your preference on focusing distance. I have set the 2 front buttons of the camera to near and far and it is so handy for macro/close up shots.
Yes, I ultimately ended up buying the Lumix G 40-150mm a few weeks ago. Found it for about $80 on eBay and decided to give it a try. I am actually quiet impressed with the results I have gotten with such a small lens so far. I would much rather recommend it over the Canon, although the reach is not as long. I haven't had any issues focusing with it, I would say its even good while using the Continuous focus feature on the G9 with it. I did not know that such far and near options existed on the G9, I will play around with it tomorrow and see if I can set them as well. Those would come in very handy. Thank you for letting me know and checking out my review!
@@alexmatute5228 Hi Alex, here's a video that details the Far and Near shit focus options and how to set them up ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-G-tisDjT3kk.html I don't have the 45-150, I thought it would be equivalent to a FF 300mm. Maybe for the speedbooster is changing the focal lens too ? Anyway 150mm is a bit short for wildlife for sure. The Panasonic 100-300 is not that expensive. Sure you can find a bargain 2nd hand for this too.
@@laurentyarp514 Thank you for the link, I honestly did not know about that feature. I love the 45-150, its honestly a lot sharper and faster than I thought. As of today, for wildlife, I have sold my canon 75-300 and bought the Tamron 100-400. Its a much sharper lens and although the autofocus is still slow, I enjoy taking it out on the field with my g9 a lot more because of the longer reach. i also own a Canon body, which works fantastic with that lens.
Not much of a review actually. First impressions -- okay. It would be much more informative if you put more samples/examples of that pros/cons and overall experience of using the lens.
Yeah. First video review, lots to improve on but its a start. Will make sure to include your tips on the next one! But honestly, I wouldn't recommend this lens for a serious wildlife or sports shooter on the G9, not fast enough focus and too soft. Overall experience, its okay. Good for when taking your kids out to the park, or photographing random birds in the backyard. Only reason im keeping it is because I own a canon Dslr and its very light weight to carry around. Im working on a website, ill post more sample pictures about this combo when im done creating it. Ill make sure to place the link in the description of the video.
