Today was maybe one of the last days of warm weather before winter rolls around.. next week is snow and below freezing a few nights. So with the portal sun cloud I set out to shoot around home and a pond I grew up on.. The leaves are falling super fast these days so I figured now or never.

Ok so... this past week I decided to change the photographer I was and move to something new and different camera wise. I really love to be the underdog so it had to be something no one would think a guy like me would shoot. Had to be completely different and if 50% of the population hated it ...well it made me like it twice as much.

Now I didn't really want to spend $20,000 on new gear just to satisfy my need to be out in the woods playing with all the critters I have here in my home town. Now I tried to redo an old friend in the 7DII but that was just not to happen after using it for a month.

And I really loved my 100-400LII since my wife bought me mine shortly after it came out. Yes she's like that... She ordered it and it had come in ... me not knowing a thing.. she just told me one day that we needed to make a hour and a half drive to Barrie and pick something up from Henry's that she had come it. lol

So having an eye exam last Wednesday into same town of course I had to stop in at Henrys to take a look see... What kind of a camera guy wouldn't lol That morning Laura Jean my sales girl had taken a camera that they just received and put it in the display case. She and I were the only ones how had touched it. And as I picked it up it felt like it was meant to be in your hand... still had a little weight... but nice to hold on to.

It was a kit which included a super nice 24-105L RF lens ... lol I left it there in the display case after molesting it for a while... It smelled so good... Like Christmas Morning Lol...

Thursday Now I'm thinking I really want this camera.. I watched all the video's since its release.. maybe twice.. three times some of them lol

So I got in my truck and drove back to that little store and threw down my cash on a gamble I would love this little camera and its big ideas and promises.

Soooo being me I decided to have a little fun and not say what I was shooting and I hoped to go a good week but these guys are to smart and figured me out. So this is the place I have decided to tell the story..

Hope your not to bored with my story because I've only just begun to start the next chapter....

My... EOS R... with 24-105L RF Lens attached and control ring adaptor for EF and EF_S lenses

I wish the game could have gone on longer but hey. next time lol.

And Thats The Rest Of The Story.......

Thanks Craig.. What I have shot has all been in wintery conditions but it sure shows you what a camera has in store for you..

This morning was a winter wonder land... Just after sun up this morning.

I have a lot to say about this camera in due time. Unfortunately forum is not up on the new Canon EOS R and RF 24-105L
