paddler4 Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 (edited) Not surprising given the superb AF tracking abilities of the best mirrorless cameras. Seems to me that sports photography is one of the genres for which upgrading to a new mirrorless body makes sense. For others of us, less so...

Ricochetrider Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Agreed that it was only a matter of time. Things change, new gear outworks old gear. No surprise in any of this, it seems. Perhaps tho, there's plenty of challenge in changing to a wholenew system... Maybe Canon & Nikon have designed their mirrorless units to use older existing lenses? IMO that'd be huge, and an incentive for an easy transition from old to new- shoot new gear now, buy new glass later. Everybody wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark_leha Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 pro sport use a lens attached to a camera. The lens comes first, depending on the sport: football and soccer: 300mm 2.8 on a cropped sensor, 400mm 2.8 on a full frame. Mandatory. if a camera doesn't "sport" that lens then the user is an amateur, not a pro. because? the pictures that sell are from those two lenses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canon EF lenses generally work well with R mirrorless bodies, using one of the Canon adapters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, for me not having to MFA any lenses was worth it alone. All my lenses worked better in the R series than the 5D series cams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the fabulous AF is great for candids of kids, which I do a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
