Nice addition to the thread. Well done, dpc.

I particularly like the first one, because of the deer's pose. He has spotted you.

On June 17, Sigma is going to have a big day of announcements. They will be announcing two very cool lenses for the RF mount!

Sigma has dropped "DN" from their lens names. It was previously used to differentiate DSLR lenses from mirrorless lenses but since they only produce mirrorless lenses now, "DN" has become superfluous. So the new new lenses are the Sigma 17-40/1.8 DC Art and Sigma 12/1.4 DC Contemporary.

Interesting times we’re in, for everyday professionals and non professionals, do we hold off for three years to see if the tariffs are rescinded or is that genie out of the bottle for good? We just don’t see any ROI on purchases now. Passing this on to our future clients is gonna be tough. Personally we have an R1/R5II, 24-105 and 70-200 2.8 Z’s and a 100-300, would love the new BIG white F2.8 and F4’s, just don’t see the ROI.

It is very interesting. I've been watching the prices of refurbished bodies (specifically the R8) and yesterday the price had shot up to $1619 (it had previously been $1349 normally). For some reason the price just dropped today to $1179 for the R8 + 24-50 kit. I ended up pulling the trigger and buying it at this lower price.

FYI a lot of the other bodies seem to be on sale at the moment on their refurbished cameras page (the R3 dropped back down to $3299 for example). So if anyone has been thinking about getting a refurbished camera I would look now.

Yeah, I was waiting to see the effect on profoto...they just released the b20 and b30 saying prices stayed the same as the b10x plus and b10x when they came out...but I always thought the b10x plus was like $2295 not $2395...still way too expensive! ha ha

I really like this one. Well done, dpc.

Thanks. Eye tracking is an amazing technology. And it doesn’t hurt if they fly right towards you.

Very nice shot, Gary.

Lovely shots, dpc.

Interesting. The R3 was on sale here in Norway just now for about $2900.

I have attached the same pictures twice. So the first three pictures are when IBIS was OFF and the second three are when IBIS was ON. The OFF versions are less blurry.

Pretty much the same

Thank you!

What happens when you take the same three shots but with IS off?
