Get ultra-fast stills from this Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L lens. It gets you closer to the action with its short minimum focusing range, and image stabilization delivers exactly the right shake reduction so that you get super-sharp images. This Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L lens has an ultra-quiet motor so that you can use it to shoot videos.

i love the 70-200mm F2.8 sigma that i used with my pentax .. beautiful results sharp photos ,, and this canon 70- 200mm is the same now that i finally bought a canon body ..
but i also seen that the MIII was better with subject back lighting results ,, which is why i got this as oppose to the 2 earlier .. but have not tested it for that yet .. and since I did not have the canon M1 or MII ,, it was why I got the 70-200 MIII ..

Step up your photography with the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV body. It has a 30.4-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor and a 100-32,000 ISO range that lets you take large photos that are sharp and bright. The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV body is ideal for shooting action photos with speeds of up to seven frames per second.

Not for beginners confusing options in the menu it may be the same with the mark III? You really have to know what each thing does or what it doesn't do, it maybe easier for someone who has worked with pro level cameras before? color is not the same as most canons (lighter not as vibrant) and that is one thing I wish they didn't change cause I loved canon's color .It was said in a review you rarely miss shots with it , I found I miss just as many shots as I do with my 6D and my T6i and that is using a center focus point, I also used the auto focus and moved focus points and it missed shots. I think people would be better off with the mark iii until the price drops on the IV unless you feel you need the extra MP's and it would be worth it to you paying the higher price. It's not a terrible camera but not worth the high price tag in my opinion.

I was searching for a remote control to do some self-shoots with my husband. Technically this works, but you must point the remote directly to the IR sensor of the camera, otherwise it will not be recognized. If you don't want to have the remote in all your pictures you will (depending on your camera) possibly need a firmware update or add-on to get a delay between pressing the button and the actual photo.
The biggest issue I had was finding out which cameras are working with the remote control. The internet isn't helpful at all and even the QR code on the package itself leads into nowhere. I can at least tell that it works with my (old old) Canon EOS 500d.
So, with some minus points still a working accessoire.

The advertisement claims the complete accessories, but the actual package is missing a couple accessories, blade oil and cleaning brush. I returned it and got another one from a local BestBuy and same issue. Why the package is not as advertised?
the one i purchased ,, all the accessories were in a sealed clear plastic bag ,, if you get a box with all loose accessories not in a sealed bag ,, i guess you now know what ..

Connect up to 4 devices to the coaxial connection from your cable or indoor/outdoor VHF/UHF/FM antenna with this mini drop amplifier. It works with the DC power provided by components, or with the AC power provided by the included adapter.
I have 4 TV's wired for cable & trying to switch to antenna. Purchased RF-G1179 splitter. Installed antenna & plugged antenna cable into INPUT, & connected power. When I disconnect first TV cable wire & plug into output can't scan any channels no signal??
it looks like you are doing a first time ota tv antenna , either indoor or outdoor ,, you may need to point your antenna to transmitting tower .. and get a signal ,, if weak , then the amp will boost the signals .. if you have no signal the amp will do nothing ..

Would like to use this lens to photograph the Grand Canyon. I am an amateur photographer with an EOS Rebel SL1. Would I be able to use this lens with this camera & have it on auto focus? Thank you for your time.
if your question is real ,, my personal = no ,, for many reasons ...you would not understand based on your experience level ..
if you can spend $2k lens with $400 camera ,, i would recommend getting a bridge camera like a nikon p1000 or p500 series ..
and have way more of a camera setup for your experience level to use and save you at least $1000 ...
if you just a lens recommendation , i see bestbuy has the Sigma 8-16mm as a better match for you level and camera ,, to just answer your question which is for the wide angle view and auto ..and save you about $1300 .. .

Charge small appliances with this Insignia extension cord. Its 9-foot length lets you run the lightweight cable around the room for versatile placement, and the three grounded outlets provide extra charging points. This 16-gauge Insignia extension cord has a PVC coating for long-lasting use, and the easy-grip plug is quick to remove.
wall outlet is a two prong is there any extension cords that will fit in two prong but be able to plug a grounded cord from a tv lets say
you are better off just changing the old wall 2 prong outlet ,, home depot -lowes or hardware store sells 3 prongs ,, swap out your old and connect the ground ,, and you are not just better off but safer too
