Re: Replacing C100 Mark I
I have much EF mount glass as well; it’s taken me a while to get to the lenses that work for me, and I’m reluctant to part with them.
Most EF-mount have been discussed here. The C200 would be a...

Re: How much light for Church stage/alter?
Positioning new lights “a little above the altar” is concerning.
