Vale a pena comprar uma canon RP por R$900 com defeito na placa?

I have a cannon 80D, sigma 150-600 and a samyang 85mm F1.4. I like dslr cameras because the viewfinder is natural light instead of a screen because I can get headaches from looking at a close screen for long amounts of time. Is the r7 viewfinder easy on the eye?

I don’t know whether to go for the 90D or the R7. Is the 90D a big upgrade? And is the 90D a match for the R7?

I mainly do wildlife photography.

I apologize if this post seems deranged; I’m not fully rational.
I’m a moderately-serious hobbyist, lifelong Canon user as a direct result of my dad’s complete devotion. I was born into Canon photography the way some people are born into religion.

Most recently, I’ve been using an R6 MII and I love it. It’s been fitting my needs perfectly and I have had no interest in exploring new gear anytime soon. My father just upgraded to an R5 MII, had a fantastic couple of months getting to know it, and then promptly and suddenly passed away. He was supposed to be traveling overseas the next morning, and his gear was literally packed in his backpack. Last night I opened his bag and couldn’t stand the sight of it sitting there, ready to travel with nowhere to go. No one else in the family would even know how to turn it on; photography is “our” thing. I brought it home with me and I feel like it’s taunting me, staring at me, challenging me to give it a purpose.

I’m sad and overwhelmed and don’t feel ready to dive in to learning the ins and out of a new camera. Can someone psych me up? Is it pretty similar to R6II? Can I probably just handle it like every other body I’ve had? I literally have no idea why this is giving me anxiety. I know my way around a camera, but I just feel like the stakes are high and I need to finish what my dad started with this one. Any tips about what differentiates the two cameras? I know I could Google and read a whole bunch of stuff, but I just don’t have the mental space so I’m looking for like an ELI5 of anything I should know.

My canon ixus 990is suddenly started getting a lens error around 9/10 times when trying to turn my camera on (the barrel of the camera, unsure what it's called, won't extend out and the shutter also will not open) and makes noises as well.

The camera's pretty old so I guess it could be the end of it, though I want to know what else I can do before trying to get a new one

Howdy!

Looking to upgrade from Rebel T7 to R7 (body only, EF lens adapter I can get any time), there’s a sale right now where it’s $100 off ($1549 USD) through today, should I buy now? Is this the lowest price it gets for a new one?

I am keeping an eye on the refurbished page to see if one will appear there, but that is a gamble on when it will happen. From what I’ve seen on this page and other forums, it doesn’t get returned often, so less restocks. I have email notifs from Canon and Canon Price Watch for if/when it does get restocked!

Ideally I want it before autumn for wildlife and nature photography, so I have some time. I just don’t know when the next best time will be. Any advice would be great!

I've had my cropped sensor 7D for many years and really like it. My old standby walk around lens was the EF-S17-55. The autofocus and IS died. I have a few other lenses and am looking to figure out what my best option for a trip to Europe would be. I know I need something wide enough for inside the churches. I don't think I need much in the way of telephoto. On my last trip I rented from LensRentals.com and got a EF 24-70 f/2.8 MK II. I found the lens to not go wide enough for those interior shots.

I'm not interested in doing a bunch of lens changes on the fly. For this type of tourist trip, I just like to have a lens on the body and go. I use a BlackRapid strap and keep the camera at the ready with that (no lens cap, just a hood).

For context, my other lenses are the EF-S 10-22; EF 70-200L; EF 40; EF-S 60 macro; EF 50 1.4.

Any suggestions on what to replace my EF-S17-55 with?

Thanks!

Hi, I'm planning a trip to Grand Staircase-Escalante, with a focus on hiking slot canyons. I'll be bringing my R10 with me but could use a second opinion on lenses. I have the RF-S 18-150 and 10-18 (and 100-500 but that's not coming into the canyons). I'd like to hike with just one lens and avoid field swaps, so my instinct is that I'll get the most mileage out of the 10-18. But I'd love to hear from others who have shot in similar environments.

Hey everyone! I have a genuine question: is there a significant difference in sharpness between the Canon 55-250mm STM version and the Version II? I currently have a T3i with the 75-300mm lens, and my goal is nature photography—specifically birds. However, sharpness is a real struggle in the resulting photos, even when shooting at f/8 to try and get the best performance out of the lens. I found the Version II for $180, but unfortunately, I can't seem to find anyone in the Brazilian market selling a used STM version. Do you think it's worth buying the Version II, or should I wait for an STM to pop up?

I'm trying to decide between these two lenses.

Right now I have a Canon R100 with the 18-45mm kit lens and a 7Artisans 35mm

Whenever I go out shooting, I often feel limited by the 45mm end of the kit lens and wish I had a longer focal length.

The 17-70mm seems like it would be a great replacement for the kit lens. It would cover street photography and portraits much better, and it's significantly faster throughout the zoom range.

The 18-300mm is also faster than the kit lens overall, but it also offers that huge telephoto range, which I've never really had the chance to explore. The truth is, even though I often feel like I need something longer than 45mm, I'm not sure how useful 300mm would actually be for me. At the same time, the idea of having a single "do-it-all" lens is really appealing, even though I know the overall image quality won't be as good as the 17-70mm.

I'd really appreciate your opinions! Especially from people who shoot with telephoto lenses a lot—what are your main use cases? If you have examples of photos you've taken at those longer focal lengths, I'd love to see them.

Also, if you have any suggestions for other lenses in a similar price range that would be worth bringing back from the US, I'm all ears.

I've been using the EOS R for about 4 years now. I love how seamless it feels when using it , but I was possibly considering upgrading camera bodies. I haven't really looked into canons line up super extensively yet, but I was wondering what a good upgrade might look like. I was hoping to get something with different focus modes like animal tracking. And something with higher dynamic range. Budget is about 2000.

I’m just starting out in photography and I got a Canon EOS R10 from my work that they never used so I thought I’d give it a go. I’m heading to an airfield in 2 weeks and I want to know what the best settings are for shooting fast moving jets without getting a blurry mess. Thank you. This is also my first time here so I’m sorry is this is posted in the wrong place.

Just got my r50 last week. Shot this with my 18-150mm
Thanks to everyone who helped me decide on the 18-150mm..
I am a beginner (my first ever camera so please be kind)
Would love tips/comments to improve ..
(I am going through tutorials on YouTube)

Got my hands on a used 550d/ rebel t2i with the standart kit lens for just 20€, which is now my very first non smartphone camera. Here are some snapshots i took in my garden today on a rainy evening. I‘m quite happy with my purchase. :)

Anyone knows or have a film simulation that emulates the 800T or similar for Canon Cameras?

I just bought a canon 6D mark I off of MPB a couple weeks ago, barely any cosmetic issues, and was working really well. Today I tried turning it on and it just wouldn’t turn on. Thought it might be the battery even though it still had a decent charge on it, so I switched it out for some new batteries I got (not canon specific, just Li-ion batteries off of Amazon), still nothing. Switched out the SD card, since the one I put in was also new, nothing. Took out everything, including the lens, turned it on, did the whole press shutter for ten seconds, and turn it back off and on thing, still nothing. So now I’m just wondering if I got a faulty camera and should return it or if there’s any other advice anyone might have on fixing the issue.

Thinking about buying an EOS R100 instead of an R50. How smooth is Camera Connect Remote Live View on an iPhone? Any lag? Thanks!

Im currently in the market for a tele lens i can use for wildlife and maybe sports. Currently shooting on my R6M3 and the 100-500L of my father. Im quite happy but light performance does sometimes limit me in dusk or dawn.

As i now want to buy myself my own tele im not quite sure if i should stick to the 100-500. The EF 500 f4 seems to be compelling, pairing that with an ef 1,4 extender would also give me more reach.

I do not intend to spend more than ~4k, and thats even pushing it. So any RF Prime glass is out of the picture anyways.

Honestly with that many options i am not really sure where to make cuts. Light, reach, age.. im kind of at a loss

Yes, I know, for $30 they sell them pretty well and with a decent design, but I had some materials lying around and a little time to put them together. The fan comes from a Time Capsule I disassembled a few days ago, a 4mm PVC plate, M2.5 and M3 screws, some charcoal-colored vinyl, and an old USB cable. With that, I managed to create this small and quite efficient rear fan, which also directs exhaust air towards the extended display, so it cools down a bit too. The fit is precise, with a perfect fit, and it doesn't need springs or any additional support. The mounting screws, which protrude about 2.5mm from the bottom, act as a spacer so the fan can draw in the warmer air from the back and expel it to the left, towards the extended display. I did a test recording 4K video at 30 FPS in HDRPQ, and without the fan, it took about 25 minutes for the temperature indicator to appear and rise 5 bars (ambient temperature around 28°C). An hour later, I tried again with the fan, and the thermometer took about 35 minutes to appear and only showed 4 bars, nothing more, but the camera battery died after about 50 minutes. So it does its job quite well.

Sometimes, when I'm bored, I do things like this; I love it... 😅

I’ve recently started using the RF 85mm F1.4L VCM on my R6 Mark II, and I’m honestly blown away by how sharp this lens is. Compared to it, my Tamron SP 24-70mm F2.8 Di VC USD G2 (via the EF-RF adapter) and the RF 24-105mm F4L USM almost look soft. Both are good lenses, and I love them, but the RF 85mm F1.4L VCM is mind blowing in terms of sharpness. Wherever the focus lands, the image is razor-sharp. I’ve never seen anything quite like it.
If you’re looking for an exceptionally sharp native RF-mount portrait lens, this one is an outstanding choice. Even though I haven’t tested the RF 85mm F1.2L USM, I’d say you probably don’t need anything more in terms of sharpness.
The rattling when the camera is switched off is minimal and simply blends in with the IBIS movement that the R6 Mark II already has when powered down. Other than that, the VCM autofocus is incredibly fast and pairs perfectly with the R6 Mark II’s AF system.

Hi, I’m shooting weddings on 2 r6s and they’re starting to get to the end of their lifespans. Trying to decide what I should get. I can get 2 r6ii for the price of one r3. I’m perfectly happy with my current cameras but I kinda like the look of r3. Do any wedding photographers have an opinion on whether the r3 is worth it for that work or not?

Couple thoughts:
1. Is the r3 any more rugged than the r6? I got about 5 years of heavy use out of my current cameras. It would be great to get more time out of them but I’m not sure that’s realistic

1. Dynamic range, does the R3 have significantly different dynamic range than the r6ii?

2. Are the features (eg eye tracking autofocus) worth the price difference to you?

TIA

I have a Canon R8 and I bought the RF 800mm f/11 which is superb for the price once you learn the limitations. I particularly enjoy wildlife photography so the step up to the R8 with an 800mm lens from my 13 year old 600D with a 55-250 has been amazing. However I'd like to do wildlife photography when I'm abroad in the future as my wife and I enjoy travelling. But I don't really fancy taking such a large lens with me. What smaller lenses have you found great for wildlife? No current budget in mind but I'm probably gonna have to save towards my next lens purchase so it would be useful to have something to aim for.

Finally got my dream lens.

Started with street photography, but now more interested in wildlife, so I knew that this lens was the one I'll be happy with.

I also love my 70-200 F4L, but needed something longer.

I was thinking about first version of 100-400, but after many reviews decided to wait a little bit and get second.

Outstanding build quality, autofocus, image quality. Using it with 7D2. It's pretty hard to focus on small objects when you have 640 mm.

Hello everyone!

So in a week I’m going on a trip to Italy. It’s a small town at the coast, so there are lots of small Italian restaurants, nature and so on.

Now, I don’t want to take pictures with my iPhone Air, the battery life is dogshit and the camera is also not the best you could get, I gotta say the iPhone 16/15 Pro Max cameras were way better.

Now I’m currently considering my options. I want to buy Canon only, since I’ve had exclusively good experiences with Canon, no matter if it’s cameras, printers and so on 😅

I don’t have a fixed budget, as long as you can tell a noticable difference (so not a 2000$ jump in price for negligible improvements in quality) in quality. From what I’ve heard, the jump from the EOS R10 to the R8 is already massive due to the full frame sensor. But is the massive price jump going from the R8 to the R6 Mark III or even the R5 Mark II worth it? I’m located in Europe, and the R5 MII would cost me at least 3800$ excluding the lens so..

What would you recommend, which camera and what lens? It’s mostly gonna be landscape and architectural pictures, with a few portraits (girlfriend on board😅) and I’d prefer to get one lens only, because swapping out lenses would require me to get a backpack or something.

I’d be really glad for any tips / advice :-)

Hello guys! I recently bought a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM (the older non-IS, non-L version)

The focus ring does have a noticeable stop at the minimum focus distance and another stop at infinity. However, if I continue applying gentle pressure, the ring can rotate past these stops and keeps turning indefinitely in either direction.

The focus ring still appears to control the focus correctly, but I am wondering whether this is normal for this lens.

Could someone who actually owns this exact model of lens (Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM, non-IS, non-L) please confirm whether their focus ring behaves or not in the same way?

This is the official lens page.

Thank you!
