I don’t think Canon have an RF-EF adapter. I have only seen 3 adapters mentioned, and all are EF to RF adapters

That's what I meant :ashamed:
The question assumes greater significance when posed the other way around: will an RF to M adapter be provided
Again, that's what I meant. :blink:
Canon have also released a whitepaper on the EOS R system. I would recommend this as a good read even for those who are not interested in the Canon ecosystem
I will check that. It's 40+ page, will read it.

^ So, they have announced pricing for Indian Market. In line with Japan pricing.

Pricing is too much, esp 50mm. There is no lens around ~10k like 50mm f/1.8 (F mount lens).

Canon DSLR can use Nikon F mount lenses using adaptor and there are adaptors available. The difference between two mount's flange distance is 2.5mm. If this is possible, Sony/Nikon could adapt RF lenses. :Fingerx:

Good news is that panasonic leica and sigma will have same mount..i think more companies should join hands like fuji, olympus togather

More mount less choice for consumer..let there be competition like sd card or usb standardisation

Zeiss built Adobe Lightroom into its full-frame, fixed-lens ZX1 camera
Yaah saw the camera today morning...was surprised and found it interesting..maybe competing with leica..would cost very high.

Yeah, it's costly $3000. But, it's good to see some innovation.

BTW, got GoPro Hero 7 Black delivered today :bananana:

Hi,
I want to get into the Photography game in the next year or so.
What is the best beginner DSLR ?
The Nikon D3400 ? What kind of moolah should an absolute beginner be expected to spend ?

Welcome @Nerevarine ...

I would say first be very clear what you want to achieve in Photography ..blindly going for DSLR is not worth anymore.
if you really have that enthusiasm to travel and lug around 2 KG of photographic gear then you decided right :D
I have seen most people leaving photography after shooting with Kit lens for a year after initial enthusiasm drops.
Most reasons - heavy, additional bag to carry, costly lens, kit lens not enough for birds, hassle of changing lens every now and then.

if your interest is just good quality photographs then better go for RX100II or Panasonic FZ1000 which will cover a lot.
If you have the patience and enthu to get inside then you are most welcome in this world :)

regarding your question of moolah....what do you love to shoot most...the kit lens is lot capable for landscape and portrait...but it dont have the range for birds or macro..

landscapes, portrait and macro. Not aiming for fast action (birds)
I want to practice using the stock 18-55 lens first, before moving on to the higher end ones.
I am interested :

Let me know all entry level DSLRs with their pro's and con's.
Im not buying now, will start buying body + 18-55 lens sometime within next 4-5 months. Will move to better lenses afterwards..

I would also suggest going for sony a6000 range of mirrorless..its the future..nikon and canon are lagging right now
I have heard its kit is very good

Never thought I'd see a day where Sujoy recommends mirrorless

Welcome to the madness buddy, you'll realize that you can start photography even before you get your camera. Tons of amazing phone photographers out there. Start getting the basics right, read up on the web (digital photography school), check youtube (adorama) and start experiments on instagram. That'll give you an understanding of what you'll want in the camera you get
