I just got a new Canon Rebel SL1 for getting into more serious photography, with maybe a bit of video in there as well. I'm decently fluent camera-wise, but one thing I don't know much about are these image quality settings. I obviously don't want M or S as those are lower resolutions. However what is the difference between the two L's at the top and the 'raw' settings at the bottom, and what should I use?

I'm looking into buying a lens for astrophotograghy. The Rokinon 10mm f2.8 is the option I'm leaning towards, specifically because I have a camera with a canon aps-c sensor and the wide angle will compensate for the crop. But the 14mm f2.8 is very popular. The 16mm f2.0 has the highest astro lens score (learn more here) for roughly the same price as either option. But again I'm on an aps-c sensor so 16mm seems a little high for astrophotography. I'm just wondering what I should spend my money on. Rokinon 16mm f2.0 Rokinon 10mm f2.8 Rokinon 14mm f2.8 -
I have a Canon G2000 printer and it's printing quality is problematic. There are some missing / darker lines when printing images in standard. However when I print in photograph quality, the image is fine. I've attached pictures. I took a picture of them so the quality looks bad but lines are the real issue here. Does anyone know how to fix this? Also, the printer is new, I just bought it last December. I attached pictures of the printouts.

I have a Canon 70D and 1200D and i've heard that installing Magic Lantern opens up endless possibilities on cameras. I'm wondering if anyone here has used it and if so what do they think? Thanks.

Hello, I have started exploring photography by utilizing my sister's unused Canon EOS 600D Body + CANON 50mm lens & Sigma 70-300mm macro lens. I am now on a verge of purchasing a wide lens, aiming for the CANON 10-18mm to be exact (for video recording purposes mostly) Is it worth it to buy 2nd hand or buy new one? What would be the pros and cons? Any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

Hello there. a new forum member here. Avid watcher of LTT on his YT channel. Anyhow my issue is that my Canon printer won’t recognize my black original Canon cartridge at all. I’ve tried all troubleshooting steps I could find, like cleaning the nozzle, rubbing the contact points with a dry cloth etc. But it won’t just detect it. In the attached picture as you can see, there’s a warning symbol light right above the “B” icon. That light flashes 4 times in quick succession and repeats. After some digging I found out it means it’s not able to detect a cartridge or the cartridge isn’t installed properly. I read somewhere that it requires both color and black cartridges to be installed to work. Can anyone help out?

Hello. So I am considering buying my first camera, for now I am using the Huawei p20 pro which has really nice camera but I want to step it up a notch with a real camera. I have concluded that either the Sony A6000 or Canon EOS M50 is my best option in my prige range. Both are at 5000 NOK with the kit lense. Done my research on the interweb and I have seen that alot of people still recommed the Sony even though it is 4 years old. Was wondering what you guys and girls would recommend for a beginner. The camera is going to be used.on trips and on work etc.. I need to be able to send the pictures to my phone, but as what I understand both of them ha e the option to do that. I am not a vlogger så 4k is useless for me, 1080p is good enough, if i am gonna film it is gonna be timelapses. Soo help please to decide and advice me. Thank you :)

Hi people in the LTT forum! I'm hobby photographer who likes to do alot of stuff under low ligth conditions. especially when it comes to shooting the milkyway, i get into some trouble. im shooting with Canon 80D, a solid DSLR but it has a cropped Sensor. i know the lens is very if not more important for doing such things but still, most videos/vlogger/tutorials tell me that cropped sensor just arent as good in low ligt as a Full frame sensor. Especially when bumping up the ISO above 3200, the 80D starts to look kinda crappy. Does anyone have expierence shooting stars or low light in generall with the 6D mark II Does it make sense to sell the 80D to get a 6D mark II, wich according to reviews shouldbe really good in low light conditions.

So here is the thing. I currently own a Canon 80D. Ive had it for a few years now, got it a couple of months after its release. Ive had a great time with this camera and it has done me well. Its been great for photography and has worked really well for videography aswell, despite its relatively low and friendly price. I am however looking into upgrading it. Its not a huge upgrade, not going full Linus here, but ive been looking at a used 6D mark ii. The reason i want to upgrade is beacuse id love to have a higher megapixel, full-frame sensor, which can deliver higher quality images and video, especially in lower light. I dont NEED 4K, but it would be nice of course. I am aware that the 6D does not have this, but id love to stay Canon, as i have invested in several EF-lenses. The question now is. Is it worth it to sell the 80D and spend a little extra for a 6D mark ii? I know the word "worth" is quite subjective, so i can say that upgrading would hurt slightly economically, but wouldnt be a disaster (could also sell a lesser used lens and just spend like 150$ upgrading). Ive seen a bunch of reviews on the 6D Mark ii and it seems like it would be a decent upgrade to what i have now. Now it doesnt need to be a 6Dii ofcourse, is there maybe another camera that has more value to it (around 1500-1600$), that would be better upgrading to? Keep in mind that both videography and photography are equally important, low-light capabitlity is appreciated (full-frame?), and the rest is up to you. Not sure if i have been specific enough, but if i need to clarify anything, please forgive me and tell me bellow. (my first post, please dont tear me apart if ive done anything wrong ?)

Please any body could help me start photography and suggest me lens for wildlife and landscape as I am planning to purchase Canon EOS 80d. Please suggest me lens with their prices as I am very much tight in budget.

I'm stuck on which camera I should purchase, either the Lumix G7 or the Canon Sl2/200d, the af on the sl2 is great and it's especially better when using it on my steadicam and not being able to use the manual focus when moving, the g7 is also a good camera especially with its 4k feature with its price point. I will be doing filmaking and I'm stuck on what camera I shall pick, I recently broke my camera so I'm looking into buying a new camera.

Hi guys, so a friend of my just sold his 450D and a 18-55mm IS kit lens to me, but the kit lens has a black spot in between the lens, and i'm planning to buy a new lens. I've found the following used lenses: -EF-S 18-55mm f4:5.6 STM(around 40$) -EF 50mm f1.8 II (around 45$) -EF 50mm f1.8 STM (around 65$) So what would be a good replacement? A newer kit lens (18-55mm f4:5.6 STM) or a prime lens (50mm f1.8 II/STM)? Is there any differences between the two 50mm lenses i mentioned above? T4R

Hey so I’ve been into photography for a while now, I am currently using a canon 200d with a sigma 18-250 f3.5 lens and I was wondering whether it would be better to upgrade to a new body or new lense the options are: canon 5d Mkii with battery grip canon 17-40mm f4 lens my main idea was that I would like to upgrade to the canon 5d because of it being full frame and considering I’m going travelling over Christmas this year the dual battery might be worth it, what would be the best option ?

Aside from showcasing phones, TVs, sensors, automated driving and other bits of tech, CES also seems to be a hot place for the launch of some new camera equipment. And it seems that the crowd-pleaser is the launch of the EOS-1DX Mark III, Canon's latest entry in the EOS 1-D line of flagship professional-oriented sports camera, aimed at photojournalists, sports and wildlife photographers. EOS-1DX Mark III There are some other big launches as well, notably Nikon's new D780 DSLR, an update to the brilliant-but-aging D750. Nikon D780 Aside from all the big guns, there were some other small announcements, which include but are not limited to; The unveiling of a physical Nikon D6 body but without any other information aside from that. The Nikon Coolpix P950 ultrasuperzoom bridge camera, now with 4K recording, an improved EVF and support for RAW files. The Nikkor Z 70-200 f/2.8S lens launch for $2600 and shipping in February alongside a Nikkor 120-300 F-Mount lens for $9500. Canon confirming that no new EF lenses are in development, with all new lenses being for RF "unless there is demand". Source(s); Opinion time; -
So, I have a Canon rebel sl1 and my CR2 raw files preview in Windows 10 file explorer just fine. However, my friend has a Canon rebel 6ts and her CR2 files do not show up in preview on file explorer. We see the files, but the thumbnails don't appear like mine. We've tried clean install of Windows 10, we've tried different images from different cards from her camera. We think it may have something to do with her camera but we are unsure....help? Ps, yes, we are photographers on Windows and not Mac OS lol ? -

Summary In July, Canon Japan released a marketing video showing the capabilities of their next-gen(?) image sensor. Along with the specs are showcase videos are test footage of what the HDR will look like. My thoughts This makes me super excited about APS-C, Micro 4/3rds and Super 35 sensor-based cameras in the future. Also makes me wonder how can companies leverage this tech to smaller platforms, i.e. laptops and mobile phones. I think it's hightime that laptop manufacturers started borrowing camera tech from companies like Sony and Canon and give us GOOD QUALITY webcams. It's 2020 and no webcam seems like a better option than a crappy 720p one. Sources -
Cannon Launches the next gen full frame RF cameras, R5 and R6 the R5 does 8k raw and 4k 120, 45mp sensor 3900$ R6 does 4k60, 20mp sensor 2500$ both have IBIS, digic X processor, output 4k 60 4:2:2 10 bit, can focus at F22 with lenses R5 has issues recording for long periods of time due to heat RF lenses 85mm F2 macro 500g 5 stop IS stm motor 600$ 100-500mm F4.-7.1 1.35kg expands during zooms and only works with teleconverters over 300mm 5 stops of IS dual nano AF 2700$ 600mm F11 telli fixed f11 950g 5 stops of IS expands before shooting STM motor 700$ 800mm F11 telli fixed f11 1.2kg 4 stops of IS expands before shooting STM motor 900$ RF teleconverters 1.4x 500$ 2.0x 600$ My thoughts the r5 is a 5D mkIV replacement but I doubt the headline 8k video will get much use given in raw its 2600mb/s filling up a 512gb CF card in 20 mins which is also how long it takes the camera to overheat. the R6 is the better buy for video especially with an external recorder 85mm macros are nice, so far looks to be a good lens. it is cheaper than the L f1.2 85mm macro or 100mm L macro 100-500mm: I don't like non fixed aperture zooms but its a long zoom 600,800 the fixed aperture and expandable nature almost make these feel like spotting scopes, not a big fan of STM motors but not bad. teleconverters are useful and are a needed add-on Sources https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/explore/product-showcases/cameras-and-lenses/eos-r5 https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canon-eos-r6-initial-review https://www.dpreview.com/reviews/canon-eos-r5-initial-review https://www.dpreview.com/articles/9552347046/hands-on-with-canon-s-new-rf85mm-f2-macro-is-stm https://www.dpreview.com/articles/3349669626/hands-on-with-new-canon-rf-100-500mm-600mm-and-800mm-telephoto-lenses

Hi this may sound like a stupid question but if someone could help it would be much appreciated. I have a Canon 1300D. When I take a photo it looks fine; but recently when im taking video it seems as though there is some blue tint on the video? Anyone know why? Thanks.

So I am not sure if anyone is going to be able to help here but ill give it a go: I use a remote trigger for my Canon EOS 800D and I opened it up to find a motherboard (I think) and the wire for the AUX (3.5mm Headphone jack) to plug into the camera. How does they do they get the code onto the motherboard and is there any way I would be able to see the code on the motherboard? I would also like to view the code on the motherboard to code my own similar device. My thinking is that if I was to code a similar program and run it off a phone or tablet with a proper User Interface it would be a fun project to try and do. I have tried looking this up however it seems this isn't a very common topic lol. Below are the images of the motherboard if it helps in any way?

When is Canon's Website coming back? -
Hey everyone, I currently shoot classical guitar performance videos on my Canon T5i with the kit lens. I did a bit of research and read good reviews about the EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM lens. It seems to be a good value for it's low price. I'm wondering if anyone thinks it's enough of an upgrade from the kit lens for video to spend the $129. Thanks so much! -
I've recently been asked, very nicely, to do some unpaid video work by a "company" in exchange for brand exposure, I accepted since I don't really have much work in my video portfolio and this provided an opportunity for me to get my work out into a high traffic website. But based on the video they had in mind I require a form of stabilisation for my camera. My camera is an 80D with a Sigma 18-35mm lens as per my trusted setup, so my question is, what steadicam style stabiliser is cheap and relatively easy to learn to use. If I were to go for a standard Steadicam (as in ebay cheapo one), how many months or weeks of practice would it take on average to reach an acceptable skill level with it? The people want a flowing kind of shot, like a long showcase take. A tiny bit like this but no aerial or complex shots, just smooth continuous take, in and out of buildings and similar. Oh and I'm taking a holiday later on in the year to New Zealand for skiing. How much less battery will I get from my camera battery pack up a mountain at around 2-5 degrees celcius? And any acclimation tips for lenses and cameras which run minimal risk of damage? Many thanks in advance

So I currently own a nikon d3300, its been an amazing camera for me however I need to upgrade. I have some great pricing on nikons available to me while canons I get for normal pricing. The main cameras ive been looking at are the following Nikon: D7500, D610, D750, Canon: 80D, 6D mark 1 I will be using these for mostly photos (90-95% of the time) While doing occasional video. I like the really quick turn on time with my current nikon and would like to keep that, I also would like to get one with a flexible screen for more difficult shots but id rather get something better without flexible screen than the other way around. Not sure what else to add. But I appreciate any advice/questions etc.
