as some of you might have picked up on I have been struggling for a while with the sheer weight of my equipment and looking into it no matter which way I turned I would either lose in weight .range ,i.q loss or price .
I have been bleeding off my canon gear over the last month or so ,and sold my big sigma sport at the weekend ,my initial plan was to get a contemporary lens but a visit to the shop and a trial didn't enthuse me .
so after looking at all the options i.e weight, price,i.q etc I have sold my 1D3 and purchased a Panasonic g80 micro four thirds system and a 100-400 Leica lens ,this will give me a effective range of 800mm and close focus ability ,time will tell if its the right choice but it was either that or give up as others before me have .
I will not be leaving the forum as I still have the eos.m3 and 55-250 which I'm keeping ,and also the use of jans 7d and 400mm f5.6 if needed
