I am extremely happy with my Z 180-600 to AF-S 500mm f/5.6 E PF ED VR switch . Combined with the Z 100-400 it is all you need for wildlife photography.

The R7 pleases me VERY much for handheld macro while the AF is just incredibly fast and accurate.

My RF50mm F1.8 arrived... :D Last Friday I ordered an RF 50mm F1.8 lens for occasional portraiture or snapshot in low light with my R7 as a compact, lightweight setup. The R7' crop factor turns it into an 80mm F1.8 which should be perfect for portraiture... Of course, I ordered this lens @ Audiophi...

From this morning, a dragonfly-in-flight with my R5 & RF 100-400/5.6-8.0 IS. Shooting conditions were optimal. Sunny, no wind so I could go for a slower shutter speed than I normally use for dragonflies-in-flight. Slow shutter speed shows wing motion, what I like better than "frozen" ...

Yesterday I met a swarm of dragonflies. They were chasing and flying extremely fast which obliged me to go for 1/4000 shutter speed.

Yesterday I met a swarm of really big dragonflies. Never saw such big ones in this region. I wonder if their size is influenced by climate change...They were chasing and flying extremely fast which obliged me to go for 1/4000 shutter speed.

I did the update from 1.5.2 --> 1.6 and everything went well. I made my download from the Canon UK website as I always do.
2 weeks and a couple of hundred pictures later I encountered no issues.
