    I chose the wrong horse. Wtf Canon, I’ve given you fuckers tens of thousands of dollars over the years and you artificially restrict functionality to nickle and dime me?

    Guess I’ll sell my lenses and switch to Sony or Nikon then. Sucks to suck!

      The until-very-recently closed off RF mount was another indicator. Their first party glass is great, but it’s not cheap.

        Yeah, on my old Canon 7D and 1Dmk2, my favorite lens was actually a Tamron (pretty wide zoom, super sharp, and aperture got down to 2)

          I’ve been using Tamron’s 150-500: for a lot of sports and have been really happy with it. Also have two Sigma primes that are also both great.

              I’ve been very pleased with it. It renders really nicely, the focus is snappy/reliable and tracks well, it seems well built, etc. My only complaint is that I haven’t figured out how to attach a lanyard to it without the tripod foot.

              There aren’t really any smaller options for a FF sensor if you want that kind of reach, or at-least I didn’t find any.
