Hello I have 2 lens the RF 24-105mm f4 L, and the RF 10-18mm f4-6.3 . I was wondering if any of yall have specific lens protector recommendations . I live in Okinawa Japan so the entire island is like one big beach so having the protector will really ease my mind . Yes I already bought hoods for them but I just want to be extra protected . I want protector that doesn’t affect the image quality or colors too much , but I’ll just so what you recommend specifically . Thank you !

Thinking of selling my Canon 70D. I have had it for 8 years and it has been a workhorse/powerhouse. Recently I have been seeing some images not to the best quality as before. I have gotten it cleaned and everything but still. So I think its time for an upgrade.

Thinking of getting the Canon R50 or even the Sony Alpha 6400. Trying to keep it under $1000. Selling my 70D body but keeping my lens's

is the 70D still worth keeping, or what would you upgrade/buy instead? Please post your opinions/recommendations for cameras.

Thanks!

Budget: $1000 or less

Country: USA

Condition: New

Type of Camera: Mirrorless

Intended use: Photography/landscape/recreational use

If photography: landscape, portrait, street, wildlife

Portability: Large/Small bag fit

I've used the Canon Powershot V1 for vlogging mainly in manual mode (auto iso). But with vlogging + manual mode, i always have to be aware of over/under exposure, aperture, etc. And always being wary of each shot slows me and my entire workflow down.

I hear a whole lot of good things of using Auto mode with the V1. What's your guys' experience with using Auto mode in this way? Any tips or things learned when shooting this way?

Note: i don't care too much about video quality (ok with grandiant bands since Auto shoots 8 bit color). I'll accept that tradeoff over efficiency of filming without worrying about exposure, etc. which is what Auto is advertised to do.

Hi! I am looking for some advice on my G7x mark ii. I’m not a legit photographer so I don’t know too much about cameras and just use my camera for fun and traveling with friends, but obviously the camera is an investment so I want to make sure I’m doing the right thing.

I recently dropped my camera in the sand and tried to blow on it to get all the sand off. It mostly worked and the camera turns on, takes photos, and seems to be functioning just fine. The only issue is that when I turn the camera off, right before the zoom/lens flattens back all the way into the camera, there is a little crunch sound. There must be a piece or two of sand stuck somewhere and I want to take the right route to repair it, but I am not sure what that is.

I know Canon does their own repairs where you have to send the camera in. Is this what you would suggest and do you have any estimate on how expensive this could be? Or is it something where I could take it to a Camp repair shop?

Thanks so much!!

Hi!

I’m not a professional photographer, but I’d like to get started in photography in my free time.

I’d like to know which lenses you’d recommend (I know it depends on what I want to use it for). But I’m looking for brands compatible with my camera, and I’d like to hear about the kinds of photos you like, so I can get some ideas and learn what I like and don’t like, etc.

Like I said, I know very little about photography and only take photos as keepsakes, but I want to get started with natural and urban landscape photography.

Thanks!!

Hi there! So I ordered the Canon PowerShot G7X MKIII 20.1MP 1" 4.2X 4K Black from Henry's for $1,249.99

I got charged on my credit card right away and it says the Expected availability: 2026-10-31 12:00 AM. Maybe jumped the gun but does anyone know how accurate this is? I was going to call the store and ask about it but it is closed right now!

Any insight would help so much. Thank you!

i'm going to a concert later so we'll probably take a few pics of each other in the venue but also maybe outside when it's still bright ?
is there any settings that'd accommodate both and look good or does anyone have any suggestions?

How do I clean the glass on my camera lens that got food on and has now dried? I have kids, it can happen when getting close for pictures. I probably should have a filter covering it, but just got the lens and just didn't get around to getting one yet. What is the best method for cleaning the glass without scratching it?

Hello I would like specific recommendations for cleaning product to clean the stuff mentioned above . Please

Some things I’ve gathered from reading around was to buy the rocket blaster and never wipe anything down before using air to push off dust particles . Next is a certain tool and has super soft bristles for the lens , but could I get a specific lens cleaner and brush please . For the body of the camera should I use isopropyl alcohol and a tooth brush ? For the sensor what is the best way to clean the sensor ? What’s the best way to clean the outside of the lens (the black portion ). Any advice helps thank you !
