Agree, repairing it might mean dismantling the front barrel, removing the lens elements and re-calibrating it after that. If it's really an eyesore and you don't wish to mount the hood full time, spending a lot of money on the rear might be your only option.

Finally bought these today. Thanks for all the information!

Thanks for the suggestion bro, I still prefer battery grip for the convenience and have been so used to using it. Having used in numerous events and wedding shoots, it just fits my needs. No doubt the best is to head to the shops to get a feel, then will only know the ideal camera as I've not...

I prefer to use it with batt grip as with my current 5D since day one I bought it and it's very useful to me. Spare batt would definitely be essential for the grip.

Thanks for the suggestion bro, but the R6 is a little off my budget at $3K+ for body only. If I add batt grip, extra batt and the adapter, will be over $4K. No doubt better than R, but budget is also important. I just need a replacement for my 14 years old 5D and plan to use it for many years to...

Hmmm, I suppose have to try it out personally to know. That adapter with the ring costs over $100 more than the standard adapter, but I'm totally new to the mirrorless system so there's a lot of exploring and studying to do before jumping in. My impression of the EOS R cameras is a hybrid...

Yes and I intend to use it for many years to come. My current 5D is still working OK, except the LCD is starting to degrade and the rubber covers for the ports on the side are starting to disintegrate as well. It has been changed before but after some years, will still degrade. Also knew that...

I see, thanks for the info! But these are all targetted at professionals. The R5 body is already in the $6K mark.

Excellent explanation there! Had a nice read to get a better understanding. Seems like the EF lineup is being discontinued gradually but I still have 3 of them. So going the R system should be the correct path now but R5 and R6 is not within my budget as now concentrating more on family so...

If I were to get the EOS RP, I'd definitely get the adapter as have to use with my existing EF lenses. That being said about the mirrorless system, are regular flip mirror system phasing out?

Thanks for the recommendation. So I presume the R system is the way to go now, cheapest is the EOS RP with R6 being the costliest. Might consider the RP if really getting the R system but previously I went Funan and asked Alan Photo, was quoted $154 for the standard mount adapter EF- EOS R. I...

Hi everyone, I've been out from photography for years since I got married and my son was born and have absolutely no time for my old fave hobby. Lately I've just been a little starting off back my passion, though not as much as before. My equipment has been sitting in the dry cabinet ever...

Yes and currently in Jeju now and today rained the whole day, but still brought it out together with my 24-70 and shoot, excellent job! I'm just planning to use it until it dies completely then change. In another note, I also brought my 600EX-RT with me but never use it.

True, but I'm still sticking to my first gen 5D which I'm taking it with me to Korea tomorrow midnight.

The 5D MK IV is on sale at Changi Airport T2's e-gadget mini at $4800+ body only.
