Anyone Using A Telephoto Lens & Pistol Grip w/XPro3?


Recommended Posts

I've recently added a 2X teleconverter to my 50-140mm Zoom lens. While it is not too hard to handle, I'm wondering if a pistol style grip slapped on the lens mount would be helpful at all? I really don't do video much. 

Crazy idea I know. I see rifle styles, which might be better, but I'm concerned about something thinking I'm walking around with a rifle.

I was using canon 100-400mm 2 with my x pro 3  and just using a monopod . 
 

didn’t gave any issues until I left the lens in my car and it was stolen including my backpack with all other equipments (about $5k worth , canon 7D , 1.4x canon , the lens , profesional mic, iPad and who knows what else was in that bag ) 

 

Thanks God I took the x pro 3 for a walk that day 😀

 

back to the topic , waiting for a Fuji tele to be release. That 200mm not convincing me , and the 100-400mm is not bad but I am into saving mode for a 300mm 2.8 maybe 


 

how is that 2x working for you ? I mean I understand 1.4x but sometimes I didn’t want to use it to get better photos . trying to picture 2x with  not good light 💡 

cheers

    • Because the sensor assembly is moved electrmagnetically. When there is no power it is essentially free moving.

      This is the equivalent of 43 minutes, 40 seconds of exposure. NGC 1502 is a neat little cluster located in the Camelopardalis Constellation. This region of space was thought to be fairly empty by early astronomers, but as you can see, there is a lot there. Kemble's Cascade (a.k.a. Kemble 1) is named for Father Lucian Kemble, a Canadian Franciscan friar who wrote about it to Walter Scott Houston, an author for the Sky And Telescope magazine. Houston named the asterism for Fr. Kemble and the name "stuck". NGC 1501 is the Oyster Nebula. A longer focal length telescope is needed to bring this one into good viewing range, but it is well worth the effort.

    • Looking for input; there are some decent deals and might want to take advantage to expand my lenses for my 100s already own: 110/2 32-64 35-70 100-200 + TC   Shooting mostly family shots, bringing my kit to capture family outings indoors and out. Tracking the 63/43 effective FLs on the two, but has anybody used both? Would the 55 (covered by two zooms right now) be redundant? Would the 80 be too similar in character to my 110 for portraiture?
