The following opinions have been automatically translated with Microsoft Translator. | Canon EOS R6 Mark II Pros: AF (alone would be enough to give them 10), electronics, stabilization, viewfinder, battery, compactness Cons: materials cheap to the touch, "only" 24Mp (but more there is still the R5) Opinion: I came from Canon EOS R: definitely wrong choice for the type of dynamic photo I'm preferring, but probably something was wrong in terms of AF with that, while here I found everything I was looking for. I am not so professional and technical as to appreciate and be able to judge every parameter of the machine on paper, but for practical purposes the camera for its AF and burst qualities is effective for those sessions of high speed and dynamism, understood as a variation of the figures and / or poses during rapid movement (for contrast, racing cars / motorcycles or cycling are high speed and low dynamism in the sense that on a straight line the pose is that, and changes corner entry but not with sudden variations), allows you to have the mathematical certainty of having not only one result, but several useful results. This changes the prospects of "work": no long and repetitive sessions with frustrating results to be thrown away while waiting for the good one, but with a one-shot one-goal logic you reduce time and effort. This does not mean that other cameras are to be thrown away or that this one does the work by itself, but simply eradicates the old problems of repetitiveness in search of the right shot. For my needs this is worth the expense, all the rest of the judgments on dynamic range or post producibility of the files I leave room to those who know more. Excellent stabilization, for me who was not equipped with it before it seems possible to shoot almost forgetting the golden rules such as 3-contact position (hand, elbows, forehead) and / or safety times. Defects only on the feeling side: plastic materials seem cheap and to the touch they are not pleasant, but if, as on the R where the feeling in hand and in sight was refined, it is the price to pay for lightness and performance that's fine with me, I need to feel confident towards the result rather than feel cool with the beautiful stuff in my hand. For those who wonder about ticking motion from the camera off: it's the sensor stabilization system off when the camera is off: it's chilling to hear, but it's very right. 10 laude, considering today's price. sent on October 28, 2025 |
 | Canon EOS R Pros: Solidity, materials, screen resolution, classic canon menu. Cons: Burst, AF and sensor (I must have been unlucky with an "unlucky" model but for my use badly) Opinion: I am not a professional photographer although I am trying to become one in some areas, and I am not even a photographic technician able to evaluate and appreciate the individual data of dynamic range et similia, but for some years I have been photographing in a reasoned way and I have an idea. It holds well in the hand in terms of size and weight, the materials are valuable to the touch and to the eye, even the elusive touch bar comes in handy once you make the "finger". For me, the purely positive experience ends here. I must have been unlucky to run into an unlucky specimen (as happened on old canon lenses or generally on third parties until the years 2010-2015, if we can also say of a camera body). The AF module did not arrive, in the sense that it sometimes gave an almost micro blurred rendering with an area of focus offset from where the focus point should have fallen. It's true that I moved towards sports photos and that she's not for that, but in the set of dynamic photos having a couple of static opportunities and not taking them home anyway had never happened to me with other bodies. I forgot: recently I come from an 80d that I still keep with me despite the years and some whims (flash turret errors, but patience). I came to doubt my ed 70-200 f2.8 is usm ii L for the total inconsistency of focus (sometimes stopped impaled, sometimes in the middle of the action not even a shot in focus with the plane in focus clearly stopped a couple of meters from the subject I was following both in single point, and expanded point, and tracking). Taking the r6mk2, which in my hand looks like a toy in comparison and which is potentially a downgrade even in resolution, and after 5 minutes without even reading the menus, throw it in manual and test it in the same conditions as the R and pull out everything that I didn't get from the R even after studying the menu and the manual 4 times and the various videos made me understand why in less than 2 years Canon has thrown out RP, R6 and R5. For those who are satisfied with AF-S or try in servant and see what comes out is fine, for those who need to get a result out every session it is better to raise the budget (not even that much) and look for something else. sent on October 19, 2025 |
 | Canon 80D Pros: lightness, true reflex ergonomics, LiveView that still has its say (2025), image quality and mid-high range dynamic range (at Canon) Cons: in 2025 not being a mirroless, that usual annoying safety of the ring of modes Opinion: I am not a very experienced amateur photographer, so I will limit myself to judging as much as I can appreciate with my hand. Ergonomics: holding it in your hand gives a good feeling, despite being made of plastic (of good quality though), and has the necessary buttons and reasonably capable devices. The only drawback for me is that "damn" button in the middle of the mode ring that acts as a safety to be able to turn the ring: it is true that accidental rotations are avoided, but given where the ring is it was difficult for them to happen (for comparison with eos R and the multifunction touch bar that is either used with release pressure or messes up), And, for those like me who were looking for a camera with excellent value for money to be used for diving at low prices, this creates a bit of inconvenience. But it was not designed for that purpose so that's okay. Of course, being a reflex camera it can have problems with F/B focus, but switching to liveview everything should be solved so you can adapt and, indeed, in liveview you gain the tracking of subjects (only faces, but we are talking about reflex and not mirrorless, mid-range and not high, from 10 years ago so for me VALE) which is always welcome. As said by other users, you can't expect to use it in low light by pushing on ISO: the noise catches the eye in these conditions, especially that of color, but just stay below 800 and shoot with good light. certainly to date there are more performing APSC mirrorless cameras even being at Canon, but for those who appreciate reflexes, ergonomics and want to spend little is fine. I would recommend it to those who want to start with a respectable body without breaking the bank, and for those who want to carry around a second body without spending much and having the certainty that charged the battery a week before it remains a ready and reliable back-up in terms of quality and duration (e.g. Safari) sent on June 20, 2025 |
 | Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM Pros: sharpness, compactness, AF Cons: nothing relevant, just not usable on FF in the future Opinion: As a non-professional amateur I am really satisfied. I use it occasionally in diving (diving suit of course), and I hope sooner or later to find the square with diving suit and flash in the same output as when it happens right stuff for macro. On clay I use it purely for family portraits, and being attentive to the definition / sharpness to enjoy the detail (the iris, the eyelashes, the contour of the lips, the fingers of the little ones etc) it gives me satisfaction, with a pleasant and regular blur. Precise, reliable AF, maybe not a missile. Used is along the lines of 200 euros (180-220) and is worth them, for a promiscuous use from family portraits without obligation to medium close-ups. However, if you want to make pure portraits (perhaps for services) it is better to do something with f 2 or f 1.4, if you want to do real macro thrusts it is better to have a longer focal length or lens dedicated to the purpose (to go well beyond 1:1 without really getting too close), perhaps tropicalized. it's not IS but that's okay in my opinion: for static portraits you can avoid blur, for macro shots you use the tripod so you don't miss it and indeed less is more (discontinued lens, therefore old, so more likely that it can break, the less stuff there is that can be broken the better, especially if not necessary for the purpose). sent on January 08, 2025 |
 | Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM Pros: weight/portability, sharpness, AF, minimum focusing distance Cons: ergonomics, controls Opinion: This is my first review. I use the lens on 80d, and as a non-professional amateur I am fully satisfied. Nevertheless, as an amateur with a few years of practice (not assiduous/daily) who experiments in different areas with a fair amount of optics, I would like to try to list my impressions in a thoughtful way after months of use. He always finds a place to be carried around, even in his pocket, so he lets himself be used and this is a great pro. I don't know if it was a project subject to differences between copies and copies, but mine is really sharp already at 2.8 (a bit of a nerdy obsession of mine of zooming in on photos to look from the pore of the skin to being able to count eyelashes by eyelashes, and with him I can). If on the fly you need to get closer to a subject to make a "macro" on the fly (macro is another thing let's be clear, we are more on the close-up, but always of quality), it allows it. Cons: as many write it is true that it tends to counter-unbalance the body-lens duo (against because it is strange to hold in the hand, and I think that the feedback of the brain used to preparing the hand and the general balance tends to make you tilt the set backwards), as well as it is all in such a small space that you easily touch the focus ring looking for the auto/manual focus command, and the ring itself is too little friction so it seems to me to run away. But, honestly, the real pro is the autofocus: very fast and very precise, at least for the semi-static use I make of it (I haven't tried bursts, but honestly you don't see it as a semi-sports use to chase the movement, even if a couple of bursts in servo to get closer to a butterfly I tried them and it went well, nothing striking as a result but given the price and the components the result in the end far exceeds the expectations), so at a certain point those of before are "just for" cons. I don't pronounce on colors because I don't have enough evaluation experience, but in my own small way I don't find problems, as well as on distortions or aberrations. In short, they are the best 100 euros to spend on an optic to always have with you (those who sell it then regret it...) sent on January 08, 2025 |
