I don’t even know what a/v mode is

Signma 24-70 for pretty much everything right now. Video included

camera settings some people shoot in auto mode, some in manual where you can set the aperature, shutter speed etc. yourself. A/V mode you set the aperature mode and it handles everything else automatically

Oh like aperture priority. No I don’t really trust it. If it makes the shutter speed to slow I’ll end up with motion blur on moving people. I’m situations with more consistent light in thow on iso auto sometimes

I had it and took it back for the rs3. Not being able to balance the mini before I get to an event was the deal breaker

So far I like it, I'm still learning how to use it. When you mention you weren't able to balance it before you used it, you had to balance it everytime? So far I have it set on the measurements and don't take it apart, just pivot and lock the arms. My camera setup so far has stayed the same when it is mounted to it.

Grabbed the Canon RF16mm f/2.8 STM.

Feenin for the Canon EF17mm f/4 T/S-E lens. Fam has one and let me use, game changer for shooting landscape and architecture. RF version probably will be $2,500.
