Welcome to Day 8. We have 4 days before Christmas. It’s almost the cutoff to getting packages delivered before Christmas. I hope you have completed the bulk of your shopping already. The eighth day is eight maids a-milking. The term “a-milking” had different connotations beyond simply milking the odd cow here and there in the 15th and 16th centuries, but I’m not sure that was what they meant. Let’s just leave this as the subject of 8, and maids. Canon EOS R8 The ultimate (and only really) Canon RF full-frame compact travel full-frame camera. It packs great features and capabilities…

Welcome to Day 7. We have 5 days before Christmas, and this list is getting down to the short straws. The seventh day is seven swans. That sounds even worse than 6 geese, but who am I to judge? Since it’s the 7th day and swans, bird photography isn’t a bad idea to highlight here. Canon R7 The R7 is Canon’s RF lineup’s APS-C 7D variant. It’s a weather-sealed, excellent constructed camera featuring a high pixel density APS-C 32.5MP sensor. Canon EOS R7 We also have a great kit available with the R7, which I highly recommend.

Welcome to Day 6, and we have six days before Christmas, and this list is half done. The sixth day is six geese. That sounds like a decent gift back in 1790 or so, but now it seems like it would be up there with a 300-piece tea set for your 3-year-old niece. Because it’s day 6, and the number 6 – the choices today are still obvious. Even though the R6 Mark II is destined for replacement next year, that means great deals are to be had with it now.
