Or Nikon / Sony equivalent? But f5.6 isn't that quick. The 600mm is f4 so again not that quick really.

Yeah he must have a lens that lets in an enormous amount of light, because shots like that would need an extremely fast shutter speed!

Should have multi quoted. Good light and iso setting and it is quite easy to get a 1/1000th shutter speed or better

He used a 400 2.8L on a 1.4 extender on an R6 :)

Why do people always want to know what kit a photographer uses? I've always found it quite insulting when people say to me "Fantastic picture Rilot. Your camera must be awesome". You wouldn't go for dinner at someone's house and say "Lovely dinner, your oven must be awesome" would you?

I go one up and say that in Michelin starred restaurants :p

I don’t disagree to be honest, I’ve managed some great shots with my old Olympus :D

True. You can take pics on your iPhone that are just as good as those on a £20k Nikon or Canon.

A company called JF Automotive in Dartford. Certainly perked it up, my previous mk6 was mapped as well, so this felt quite flat in its power delivery. Gave me a load of mid-range torque. It’s a manual, so there’s slightly less torque otherwise it would shred the clutch. The clutch is right on the limit IMO, so that’s next to be changed/upgraded.
