I need some extra batteries for my 6D. I read that Wasabi Power and Sterlingtek both make decent 3rd party options. The Wasabi power seems like a better deal and has a better warranty. Any experience with them?

dorkanoid posted:I just bought a 6D (it was 30% off with the 24-105L, how could I not?!) - and it turns out the provided software really hosed up not only my computer, but the rest of the network. Holy poo poo. I thought I was the only one. Killing the Canon wireless transfer program worked for me.

geeves posted:The WiFi with the 6D, in the previous pages, has been mentioned to kill networks and was terrible software. This is only if you use the Canon proprietary software. Connecting it to my network, my computer then sees it as if it was plugged into USB and I can offload files as normal, albeit a little slowly. The software is a piece of poo poo, but the wifi remains perfectly functional.

Going to take the a train trip from Portland to Glacier National Park, and then to Chicago. I've wanted to add a telephoto to my kit for a bit more reach, but I can't decide between the 70-200 F4L IS and the 70-300 F4-5.6L IS. I have a 6D, 24-105, and a 100L macro. What does the goon hive mind say? I'm interested in getting better wildlife and landscape shots, and love bug pictures.

INTJ Mastermind posted:Canon 100-400L is great for wildlife. And you don't overlap range with your 24-105. Does the 100-400L hold up to the other two in terms of quality? I understand it to be an older lens and I am unsure about the push/pull.

It's a bit out of my price range. The 70-300 is pushing it, but I'm willing to stretch if I find it compelling enough. I like the reach, but not the relatively poor aperture. Reverse that for the 70-200.

BetterLekNextTime posted:I'd also suggest the 70-300L. Great IS. The difference between 200 and 300 is pretty substantial for wildlife. Compared with the 100-400, the extra 100mm on the 400 is not as big proportionally as the jump from 200 to 300, while the 70 is very useful on the wide end for landscapes or portraits. It's a great vacation lens if you aren't specializing on birds or sports. Yeah, yeah, I bought it. And a Gorillapod with a ball head so I can attach that poo poo to trees and actually be in the picture. My checkbook weeps. But it feels so NICE in my hands.

Encor3 posted:If you can wait for a rebate, you can get a new newer camera, two lenses, a printer, and photo paper for $50 more. I got a similar rebate with a lens and it was processed and in hand within 2-3 weeks. Also, the printer is great and I've been making prints for family and friends. Stop your bitchin', boy!

Am I the only one who thinks that he shouldn't spend hundreds of dollars on new camera equipment for his dad when all he knows is that the lenses are 'big'? Find out more about what he has and what he uses and we can give you some real suggestions.

I have the 40 2.8 and recently it's spending as much time on my camera as my 24-105L, 100L macro, or 70-300L do combined. It's fantastic on full frame. Get it.

alkanphel posted:I used to be a Canon user too, but I too jumped ship. The last Canon camera I ever recommended to friends was the Canon 5D2, now I mostly recommend Sony or Fuji. Those who didn't heed my advice ended up selling off their Canons like a couple of months later when new Fuji/Sony cameras came out. To be fair, there are some reason to use Canon cameras but most of my friends don't fit into those niche use-cases. I use canon because nikons don't fit in my hands well. :-(

Can you both shut up so we can get back to pixel peeping and bitching about how Canon’s DR shits the bed by a millionth of a stop too much?
