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.
 
nice lens

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 ..

The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV body is ideal for shooting action photos with speeds of up to seven frames per second.

i been on pentax for 6 years and finally went canon , after watching and waiting for 3 years .. when the sale happens and finally this black friday canon took 500 off with free battery grip .. i wanted to go nikon 850 but no price break ,, i finally am going off pentax ..
i am not going to state canon specific but just post comparison with pentax ,, i was hoping big difference but it was not so for picture quality ..
pentax was limiting me with lens to buy and where to buy pentax which made me leave .. but canon has now let me expand what i wanted .. but of course cost went way up too .. if you know and want certain hardware and specific results .
so for final statement, , i will get a 5DS/R soon to compliment the 5D M4 and use one for big zoom and one for wide-macro ,, ,which is what i done with all my pentax hardware .. if the 5ds/r would have been on sale, i would only gotten that ..
4 stars for end result of a photo compared to pentax for this body .. and much higher canon costs .

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 .. .

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
