Thank you Gonzalo! Really pleased you enjoy the content. Wishing you all the best over in Spain. RR

Cheers Ciaran. Hope you are keeping well. RR

@@RoyRiley Same to you Roy

Thanks for this. appreciate your support. What a camera the 90d is. Incredible machine!

Between 16-200mm range the only thing the 24-70 really offers is 50mm. I'm thinking of going with the 16-35 F4 and 70-200 F4 MK2. I would be inclined to add a 50mm prime to fill in that gap. I also own the 17mm TS for my RE photos.

Thanks Ray! appreciate your comment. the 16-35 f4 is a great buy these days. I dont think you will regret it! All the best. RR

Nice! Really pleased you are enjoying using this lens. Deeply jealous of you being in Greece because it’s utterly horrible in England at the moment. Wishing for some sunshine! RR

Really pleased you found it helpful! Thanks for your feedback. RR

Nice! So I was about right with my price prediction… what camera are you shooting it with Henrik?

@@RoyRiley I shoot with a 5dsr, also bought second hand.

@@donJaneiro I am interested in the 5dsr. Ever compared it to the mk4?

@@RoyRiley I haven't no. Was considering the mark 4, but chose the 5dsr because it was more affordable in my case.

I have not used the 7d for a while but will look to pick one up and review at some point. Good luck to you in Bolivia and thanks for your comment. RR

Nice. I have the Nikon 16-35mm F4 too. My friend passed away and left it to me. Need to shoot with it more often. R

@@RoyRiley that is gear with a story and history... I know it will hold a place in your heart...

I had one a good few years back. Shooting an around the world yacht race killed mine but I seem to remember it was fine during the years I used it. What price are you looking to pay?

Afraid I have not used the 90D but did shoot quite often with the 80D and 70D. I have always been a fan of this line up and would imagine the 90D is a great camera especially for longer lens work because of the crop sensor

Awesome lens for video ! Glad you are maki g the most of it. RR

Haha! That’s an expensive lump of glass.. glad you are wise. RR

Should work fine with the full frame 5d mark2. 7d and 60d are both crop sensor cameras so the 16-35f4 will work but will not have the same wide angle view as you would get on the full frame 5d2 due to the smaller sensor. On the crop sensor cameras the angle of view is more like 25-50mm. Hope this helps! RR

Nice! The 1DX is an awesome camera. 14mm would be very nice but I guess could be a bit wide for everyday use? Really these things depend so much upon what and how we individually like to shoot. Good luck with it all whichever way you go! RR

I just got a 1 DX also, I can't decide between 24-70, 16-35 or 17-40. I shoot mainly portraits and some skateboarding action shots so want something pretty wide

@@ElementForLife78 Skip the 17-40 and 24-70 especially if it’s a version one. The former doesn’t have a good reputation for image quality, and the latter has a clumsy AF motor. Plus that 24-70 is heavy, and the weight doesn’t balance well, being that it’s a reverse zoom. It’s also not robust, the extending element feels unnecessarily loose, so you’ll need to shoot exclusively with a lens hood which is cumbersome.

Honestly I would say stick with the f4 lens.

Nice move returning the lens.. what goes around comes around and all that.. I have limited experience with the 17-40 but I wonder if the extra reach of 40mm actually adds a very useful extra bit of reach in real world use..(I had a 40mm prime on an old Pentax years ago and it was awesome!)

@@RoyRiley we'd like to think so wouldn't we haha. Oh mate the extra reach is brilliant in fact I use to run it on a 1dmkiv quite a bit on the apsh, and the wide plus extra reach I could easily shoot fill weddings on it without even swapping lens, obviously limited with no 2.8 for shallow dof, but It never bothered me in all honesty.

Yes! That neck of the woods. Nice area around the Barbican. I will stick my head in if I’m down that way anytime soon. Good luck whichever way you go man. RR

Hi Luca. Thank you for your message. Firstly can I ask what camera you are using and what do you most like to shoot? The rule of matching the minimum shutter speed to the focal length is a good habit to get into and an old school rule that I still use daily. Also understanding what shutter speed you need to use to freeze action is important as no IS or IBIS will help totally to avoid subject movement. In my opinion the 16-35mm F4 is one of the best lenses Canon ever made and I choose it 99% of the time over the 2.8 version.. We each have to choose the lens that is right for us but you wont go far wrong with the F4 lens

@Roy Riley Thank you for your prompt reply! I'm using a Canon 80d just for photography, I've no interest in video making. I actually have a efs 18-135mm kit lens that I enjoy using mainly for landscapes and I also possess an efs 10-18mm that I'm not using much despite the idea I had of photographing super wide angle scenarios was good when I'd bought this last lens.🤷🏻‍♂️ I like landscape photography, however at the moment I do not have possibility to do it so I'm doing a bit of street photography. Actually I'm mostly exercising,while walking around cities,on catching/using lights&shadow to give the image the feel and look I would, the outcome it's not encouraging, not but I'm learning. I paid more attention to what focal lens I'm using while photographing. I lately shoot between 24mm and 50mm, sometimes I go over to 85mm. At first I was oriented to the EF 24-105 F4. But I think it's going to be a bit heavy (Once I reach the location or the place I want to be in I take the camera from the bag and I walk a lot with the camera in my hand or on a shoulder strap checking surroundings areas) and I would loose a bit of the wide angle feel I like for landscapes.(although I'm not doing it at the moment) So I suppose my choices are : Or the EF 16-35mm with a prime lense like ef 85mm for a longer reach. Or the EF 24-70mm with a prime wide-ish angle lens. I'm sorry for the very long message, I tried to make it as short as possible not to waste much of your time, but I also wanted to make sure to give you a precise idea of where I'm at. Thank you again for your consideration to my dilemma and help, your dedication towards us as viewers of your channel when we ask you about anything. And your time.

@@anordinary_snap thanks Luca. My honest opinion might not be what you expect but maybe will give some food for thought. My opinion is that you have the perfect set up already. I would suggest that you stick with what you have and learn to develop your creativity and perspective. The gear you have is very capable of producing amazing pictures under nearly every situation. I would consider adding a 50mm 1.8. For working in low light and to create shallow depth of field. Also might consider the EFS 24mm pancake prime lens because it is very light. I would steer clear of the big and heavy L zooms. Save your money and spend it on wine, women and song! Hope this helps some. Good luck and let me know how you get on. R

Im afraid there is no easy answer. I dont currently shoot with crop sensor bodies so im no expert. the bokeh with wide angles is much less obvious though.. thought about the 16mm RF prime?

@@RoyRiley sounds like all my considering options are suggested, just need to think about which one to go for

No idea about the sigma im afraid.

Haha! Yes but which one? Big question..

These are the challenging decisions we are all faced with when a new lens mount comes along. I don’t think any of the lenses or options you mention are better or worse just different! Good luck whichever way you go. RR

@@RoyRiley Good thing I'm not in a hurry at this point thanks to my trusty old 17-40mm F4L. However, your realization about the utility of image stabilizers on wide angle lenses is spot on. I had a similar experience when I was choosing a 24-70mm F2.8. Canon had no IS while Tamron had one. I found that even at 24mm the IS has been pretty useful.

@@mirasga always good to know others come to the same conclusion! Good luck with it all. Where in the world are you?

@@RoyRiley Greetings from the Philippines. 😊

Nice! I believe it was the mark 2 that has the bigger filter thread. I took that 17-35 around the world with me several times before it got wrecked on a sailing boat in Cape Town

Roy Riley I hate when gear ends up that way. I recently had to sell a Leica Monochrome at a loss because the sensor that Leica replaced corroded six years after being replaced.

@@bngr_bngr agreed! Leica make great cameras but they have questionable history when it comes to sensors. Really they should have replaced all those cameras that had issues or offered refunds. I have an old M9 with a replaced sensor and I do worry about its future

Roy Riley Leica replaced the M9 sensor but the first one also ended up corroding in time. Leica quietly used a second sensor replacement that didn't corrode. The second replacement sensor is out of production. Leica provided a discount on new cameras. Some companies will repair the sensor for $1.6k to $2k US. I still have a bunch of M glass and plan to buy a Canon R6 to use my M glass.

@@bngr_bngr makes sense because the glass is superb. Would love to hear how you get on when you get your hands on the R6

It’s an interesting thoughts that the faster AF of the R cameras might have an effect on the life expectancy of the older EF lenses. Honestly I guess only time will tell. My experience of the EF lenses has been that they are extremely well built and durable. I have an old 300mm from the mid 90’s that has been through the toughest of times and still works fine.

@@RoyRiley I've got a 24 to 70 f4 which seems to be going the same way :( It's mostly okay but throws the error 01 a little bit more frequently than it should.... Which is a pain if You are shooting a client, Got to get good at small talk when that happens and you just wait for the camera to restart . also kills any Wi-Fi connection you have between a laptop which is very Frustrating. Maybe if I get a macro lens it will be an R to be on the safe side :)

@@ademcfade it’s horrible when cameras have a problem in the middle of a shoot, but it’s just one of those things.. happens to everyone. Don’t panic, breathe and talk easily and honestly about what’s happening would be my advice!

@@RoyRiley banter and bad jokes save the day ;)

Might be worth considering the 10-18 efs lens or sigma equivalent. However the 16-35 f4 will work fine on the aps -c sensor so long as you factor in the 1.6 crop factor
