Hi all, Paul from Warmington, Northants here (please note - not Walmington On Sea!). Recommended to this forum by a fellow Canon snapper to get an answer to a current software editing issue I have (see different thread). I have been using Canon equipment since buying my first DSLR (used Nikon on film). Started with an EOS 350 which was still doing good service until a few months ago when I passed it on to a DSLR beginner. Upgraded to a 40D about 8 years ago which is still doing good service, and now have a new 80D which is excellent. Never had any issues with any of them. I started as a school sports photographer in the days of Kodak Tri-X B&W after my dad was a keen amateur on 35mm slides. Shot quite a bit of F1 back in the days of Senna and early Schumacher when you would get 36 pictures back from BonusPrint or wherever and find 30 of them only had half a car! Seriously, I have actually got a lot of good F1 action shots from that era which I must get around to digitising, like my Dad's slides.
Now I shoot mostly wildlife (which means mainly birds in the UK but bigger stuff in Wyoming) and landscapes - some US examples and a recent local buzzard are shown below.
I use the 40D with an 18-200 EF-S lens and the 80D with my beloved EF 100-400 L USM, now with a 1.4 extender which works (anyone wanting a 2X extender ping me - doesn't work on AF on this lens), I keep these configs pretty static as I do a lot of walking and changing lenses is a hassle.
Anyway - looking forward to joining the debate and any Apple users please take a look at the thread I will be posting shortly on DPP and Photos!

Some here will suggest you upload via Flickr to avoid losses in quality by direct attachment such as these. Yes, some will, so I won't
