great review. I'm looking forward got try mine on the field soon. What kind of skin wrap are you using ?

Thanks for the comment. The skin wrap is an acrylic wrap that doesn't damage the lens in any way. www.lifeguard-design.com/categories/canonlensskin

Hello Mathew. I am very curious about the telephoto lens from Canon Rf 100-300mm f2.8 Would like to hear a review about that lens. Would you be doing a review on that lens?

Hi Andy. That was the Lowepro Fastpack BP 250 AW II. But i have since bought the Lowepro Pro Trekker BP 550 AW II which is capable of carrying my 400mm prime lens. Hope that helps.

Great video! What did you use to cover the lens?

Hi Nic. Thanks for the comment. I put an acrylic skin over the lens and camera bodies. I was finding that even after one trip the gear was being damaged. I bought from here. www.lifeguard-design.com/categories/canonlensskin

Excellent and helpful review but constantly playing with the lens is distracting and (sorry!) the background music sucks.

At the moment I have a Sigma 150-600 C and am contemplating this lens as a replacement, but just for the AF compatibility with my R8, would the step up be worth it?

It's worth the investment, I was initially using my R5 with the EF 100-400mm MKII due to RF lenses being hard to find due to Covid. Once I finally got one I completely stopped using my EF lenses, and the Sigma can't compete with the RF lenses.

Do you think this lens can be used for portrait photography regarding a short minimum zoom range?

It probably could be used for portraits. I've used it for landscapes and lifestyle shoots before.

Hi if I'm choosing between the Sony system with a significantly cheaper 200-600mm and brighter max aperture, how would it stack up with the canon 100-500mm? At the time before I purchase my Sony, I dun mind considering the canon but the cost of the 100-500mm is the reason I didn't go for it. I'm wondering if anyone can let me know if I miss anything when I use Sony instead of Canon.

Hi Thanks for the comment. I would probably do some more research with the Sony lens. There are so many pros and cons to each set up. The Canon lens will allow you focus at subjects very close because of the 100mm focal range a close focus optics. You need to check with the Sony as i've heard that the 600mm isn't actual 600mm range. It falls short unless you use extenders. Ive never used it personally but check these things over and buy what you think is best for you. The 7.1 compared to 6.3 is barely noticeable but the Sony lens has internal zoom which makes it much larger to travel with. The Canon is very compact for travel. Hope that helps.

I have both and i must tell you that the rf100-500 is considerable sharper than the sony 200-600. both provide excellent results but in terms of detail the advantage goes for the canon.

The biggest issues with sony for wildlife is that their sensors have incredibly slow readout speeds, so rolling shutting will be a big problem. Also, their burst shooting speed is only 10fps and that's with lossy-compressed images.

Wow, that's strange how people criticize in the comments about music, way of speaking...On every review i look at, people are benevolents but they seems irritated here 😅

I don't find 7.1 an issue. Chances are high that this lens will be mated to the R5 or R6, both cameras handle higher ISO's with ease.

Does it pair well with the r10 as well?

@mstarling79

Жыл бұрын

Unfortunately, i've not tried the Canon R10. A few things worth considering is that the R10 is an APSC sensor so the 100-500 is effectively a 160-800mm lens. So you will have much greater focal reach. However, the camera only goes to ISO 32000 and is limited to 15fps.

Great review but for me, the music is irritating. I'm trying to listen to you not the music.
