    Damn, people are almost giving away the OG BMCC!

    Indeed. He was complaining about very bad battery life in the ad, but I still get 60 to 90 min out of it!
    Would have prefered the MFT version, but the EF one is fine for this price. Hopefully one day I find a magicbooster for it.

    I've had good luck with camera gear in general, but I guess its a bit more specialized so you have less idiots. Not that you can't get screwed selling anything. Ebay sucks

    Kind of the same when trying to sell something in person. Never had any problem selling photography/video gear, always nice and friendly people. But try to sell instead a smart phone, tablet, etc...

    I passed that phase too. It was a royal pita, because it is very stressful. I remember thinking how can I make it sure 100% with a video that I am sending this box. It is nearly impossible, unless you do everything and then hand it out to the courier, in the same take! 

    It's not like eBay will take the time to watch that video anyway.

    Interesting. Probably a 20MP sensor. 

    Indeed makes sense. The R1 will be like the R5 a higher megapixel body and the R3 like the R6 a lower megapixel body. That way they probably give the R1 8k video as well.

    Hopefully they will also release some new entry level full frame and crop frame bodies in the near future.

  5. Okay, got time to finally repair the LCD rotation problem on my C100 II.
    Where the screen rotates is a small plastic cover you can take of by removing 2 screws.
    Inside you find a small PCB with a micro switch on attached with a wire on a plastic mount.
    Pop off the PCB from the mount and replace the micro switch.
    You can find a new one on aliexpress/ebay/etc.
    Search "new orientation switches lcd screen rotation Canon EOS 750D / Kiss X8i / Rebel T6i, EOS 760D, ..."
    Some soldering skills are required to remove and solder a new one.
    Try not to heat up the switch to much or the plastic inside of switch will melt breaking it!

  6. I think this year will even be worse than last year. Vaccinations are going slow in Europe, will most likely take until late this year before everyone is vaccinated. Infection rates are still fast rising over here, so do not expect the rules to be flexible enough to have any weddings this summer. Only positive is you somehow can sell your gear for more than it is worth at the moment...
