Just wanted to say Hi!

I'm a long time Canon shooter, having moved over to Canon from Nikon when the original Canon 5D came out. Prior to that I shot Nikon 35 from the Ftn, up to the F6.

Currently I'm using R5's with the R versions of 15~35 2.8, 24~70 f.2.8, and 70~200 f.28.  These are my bread and butter lens.  I have some of the long glass that is like never used in the old mounts.

I shoot primarily glamour, advertising, and events\clubs.   Always fun!

Stay safe,

JimiV

Welcome, @jimivphotography! I'm a big fan of the EOS R system and plan to review a lot of Canon mirrorless equipment later this year. I used the R5 for a few months of testing and still consider it one of my favorite cameras. How are you liking it? Your type of photography is very different from mine, I mostly shoot landscapes.

@spencer I'm really liking it. Very different than my previous 5D4 and 1DX3 bodies.  There are things I love about the new mirrorless and things that drove me nuts in the start of the transition. But now, I've really started to get comfortable and 2nd nature with it.  I know I have more to explore with it, but it's a learn as I go thing!

I love good landscape and costal shots.  Love great wildlife shots as well. I suck at them, just not my thing to do, but I sure like looking at them!  I have two friends that shoot for NatGeo.  They lay in freezing streams and in crazy locations to get their images.  Not for me!  I much prefer to direct a model, or weave my way through an event.  :)
