Rumour is that the 4gb thing will be fixed in the next firmware. Fuji is pretty good when it comes to upgrades.

I imagine Canon and co have teams of people with a huge amount of data to figure out who will buy these cameras and lenses and at what point they become profitable. The Canon R might even be a loss leader, with the next model planned to be the one that really sells the native lenses.

Ahhh... i didn't know Canon's future depended on one specific town? There are literally 100,000s of pro photographers shooting with Canon/Nikon, worldwide

hmmm... professional photographers?

Anyone have experience with this... https://www.iledgear.com/vr-2500-led-soft-panel/ I've seen a few youtube vids with this light and others in the range... seem a really versatile soft light.

Out of interest, do you have the XF 18-55 or 16-55? Would be very interesting to see a shoot out to see just how much the glass adds to that filmic look.

Agghhhh... salivating!

I'll just hang my 6 pack of "work" beer on it

One extra little thing about the wing... Due to the engineering of it, you can't really slide the full 40cm as the pressure gets too much at the start/end.... but.... for the same reason... you get a natural ease in ease out on your slide. It's like an accidental feature and really cool.

Now I am getting used to doing the slide with one hand... I think I could easily use that setup at a wedding. I've realised that if I have the wing pointing parallel to one of the legs, it adds stability. I'll mainly be using the bigger manfrotto tripod though, but this is doable.

You're still able to post, jon! I thought you'd well and truly put your dick in the hornets nest earlier

Thanks! though I will say that when trying to move the wing over it's full length, you need to put one hand on the tripod to fully steady it , when the tripod is at it's full size (still totally usable).... With the 90mm attached, this is even more pronounced. As I have it in the photo though, perfectly stable, leaving both hands to get even more smoothness

I got that second hand for £170... about $220 i guess? This is v1... v2 new is about $700. I've done dolly like shots with ibis and gimbal, but nothing comes close to the real thing imho Great username btw!

Everything shown so far with the xt3 and that lens has looked a step above... very nice

It's called a MeFoto travel tripod... Surprisingly sturdy for the size (I think the mobile phone camera made it look smaller than it is). Though the wing will be on a bigger Manfrotto at weddings.
