    Pete. I'm about to purchase this lens but need to answer a question because at my old age every oz of weight matters. Do you know if the heavy looking tripod collar is removable? Sure would be nice.

      Hi John, thanks for watching. The tripod collar is non removable I am afraid, it would be great if you could take it off to save a little weight, but in all honesty I didn't find it a struggle to carry around and shoot with throughout my time using it. It's a great setup and a lens I can see becoming a firm favourite for years to come. All the best Pete

    Good stuff! Were you using an extender on the moon pics or did you crop in?

      Thanks for watching. I was using the 2x Extender for that shot, so handheld at 1600mm.

    F9 full frame is equivalent to F4.5 on M43. :D

      Only when it comes to depth of field. You are still getting a brighter lens with the MFT.

    • @mousbleu
      @mousbleu 8 місяців тому

      Yes, and MFT sensors are more sensitive and less noisy. @@sangria687

      @@sangria687 Yes... and no. While having a smaller sensor doesn't change how much light is physically entering/exiting the lens, it does change how much of that light actually enters the photosites and is recorded. Assuming you compare systems of a similar age and resolution, this is why smaller sensor produce more noise and less DR at the same ISO; less of the light actually gets recorded, so they have to increase the gain to achieve the same brightness, thus increasing noise and lose DR. (Also assuming you are comparing lenses with equally-accurate light transmission.)
      It's not the same amount of light coming through the lens, but the larger sensor is recording more of the light coming out of the f/9 lens, while the 4/3rd sensor misses three quarters of the light coming out of the f/4.5 lens. Only recording one quarter of the light means it is working with an exposure two stops darker than the f-stop indicates, which the camera compensates for by pumping the gain.
      In other words, f/9 on a 24mp FF sensor is the same depth of field _and_ the same amount of light _captured_ as f/4.5 on a 24mp 4/3rds sensor would be. This is why f/9 ISO 1600 on FF gives you the same result, in all regards, as f/4.5 ISO 400 on 4/3rds. Same depth of field, same brightness, same noise, and same DR. (Again, assuming you are comparing cameras and lenses of a similar age/technological generation, resolution, and light transmission. Obviously if you compare _wildly_ different systems then there can be further differences.)
      (Also, the 'M' that both of you used in 'M43' and 'MFT' is not part of the format name. The 'micro' refers to the mount, not the film or sensor format. The format is simply 4/3rds.)

    Why would you buy this lens when you can buy a 100/500mm L series lens for about the same price..just add a converter to get the extra focal length...

    • @polejhone7810
      @polejhone7810 8 місяців тому +7

      Lol, 100-500 lenses cost '$600' more than 200-800. And even with 1.4 teleconverters, the maximum focal length is 700mm, and the aperture reaches a whopping f10. In addition, there will be a drop in the image quality. This lens is almost exclusively for wildlife photographers, you don't need to buy it if it doesn't fit the purpose. It doesn't make much sense to compare it to a 100-500L lens.

      @@polejhone7810 I think this lens would make a nice additional lens even if you have a 100-500, if you have that luxury. Aren't very many option that can go to 800mm, and zoom back if necessary, that you can are compact enough to lay on the passenger's seat while you drive around. No, it's not an all purpose lens. Not an action lens for sure, especially in low light, but there's definitely a place for it in your bag. It doesn't "replace" anything, but it does add something.

      For a super telephoto up to 800mm I'd say it's pretty compact and light, but I guess it depends what we are comparing it to. Switching to the new RF-S 10-18mm on the R50 afterwards was a bit of a shock though ;)
