I'm glad to have folks in supply chain that monitor such things. It was certainly a problem especially in 2021 when some products were super difficult to source (like the microcontrollers) and had insane prices or >80 weeks lead times for some custom items we needed in large quantity (not...

That's more like an investment in your LLC than coughing up money. :LOL:

The R5 was a bit of a nightmare in 2020 and better with 2021 FW. An R5 II and an R5s with more pixels would be nice. From the start the R5's reduced bit depth, fixed 20FPS, and mediocre scan speed were all a headache in ES mode.

I don't know about Swedish prices, but the smaller Canon batteries are rather much per Wh. The R5 II should be really good when it is finally released.

You will want spare batteries. A 7.5Wh battery does not go far for MILS.

Those work fine with Canon adapters. I have two of the 100-400 IS II. They were the first lenses I ever used on the R5. Canon croppers pretty much suck due to archaic sensor designs.

30MP was well rounded in 2016. Now it is for sports and events. The R5 is killing me. Where are the R5 II and R5s?

Is that for your personal use? It looks like the first 6TB I see is this: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1820408-REG/sandisk_professional_sdphe1g_006t_gband_g_drive_armoratd_space_grey.html

So the crappola de Canon continues. R1 resolution is rumored to be only 30MP. 🤢 🤮

Since SSD prices are going crazy, I'm sure that the mobile drives are not dead yet. One of the few HDDs I had that failed was a 4TB Passport around 2016, when that was considered large. I'm willing to buy a 6TB if it is CMR, but not the painful shingles.

Video AF is rather different. My understanding is that you need slow, but steady AF and good tracking. For sure all MILS suffer from AF acquisition with tele lenses since the on-sensor AF has an inadequate effective base length. The better MILS now use some kind of AI logic to decide if the AF...

Don't expect reliable and fast AF from Canon lenses on S*ny bodies. I have Metastones and Sigma adapters and dozens of FW updates. Canon EF lenses work very well with the Canon EF-RF adapter, in some cases better than they did on EF. Don't buy weird brand EF-RF adapters. Some of the new RF...

https://www.westerndigital.com/company/newsroom/press-releases/2024/2024-05-16-western-digital-unveils-worlds-highest-capacity-portable-hdds So now you can get 6TB, probably slowly with the shingles.

It probably depends on how Win 7 handles the NPU and GPU. I really would just use 10 at this point.

I did not see anything about price but that is not unreasonable. We were paying nearly $8K for the 1Ds II back in 2004, which would be roughly $13K today. Big tele lenses are much more expensive today though.
