What's a good price on the Refurbished RF70-200mm F2.8? I missed out last time but feels much higher now @ $1999.

Interesting that all of those RF lenses were in stock the day before the sale started but were out of stock the second the sale started. I have my doubts about them selling out instantly.
They do sell very fast. I got notified that the lens I wanted came back in stock yesterday. I ordered it and it was out of stock within a few hours. Use the notify me option on the product page if you really want one.

If you are considering the RF100 please consider this:
1. Does not have touch screen
2. Does not have articulated screen
3. 4K video will produce crop and not Dual Pixel AF

As pro: easy to use and affordable.

From Canon's website:
Refurbished Products
Products are returned to Canon for a variety of reasons, including overstock balancing, miscellaneous returns from retailers, suspected mis-operation, and minor damage to the box.
Products that are refurbished must pass a comprehensive quality assurance inspection before final packaging and shipment.
Rigorous function and cosmetic inspections are performed by trained Canon technicians so that each refurbished product meets operational specifications and strict cosmetic standards that we have established.

The R50 is back in stock. Here's a comparison between the R100 and R50: https://www.rtings.com/camera/too...shold=0.10
IMO, it's worth the extra money. Almost ordered one because a new one at Amazon with the RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens Kit is $749.
That was quick. When I posted this it was in stock, now OOS.

Last time it was on sale it was about 250 bucks higher than this price. It has been lower before. But if you need it now it's not a bad price.

I want to shoot some painting in A4 size, what kind of lens do I need? I tried with my kit lens 18-45mm, shot it from about 3 feet away from the target. And I couldn't zoom in enough to have the whole painting to fit the frame.

Not sure why it's not listed on the deal but the R50 with 18-45 kit lens refurb combo is also in sale for $449. I believe that's the lowest I've seen an R50 combo so far. R50 body trade in vale is $405 right now so I think this deal is pretty slick.

Just got mine this weekend, i'd strongly suggest anyone looking at the R100 to consider the extra $150 bucks to make the jump to the R50. I sold the kit lens for $75 and picked up a used rf-s 18-150, rf 16mm f2.8, and rf 50mm f1.8 to put together a nice little travel kit.

R50 adds touch screen, articulating screen, better evf, higher res screen, newer image processor, down sampled uncropped 4k video, fully featured AF and more. It's well worth the additional cost. Canons X50 class cameras are always top seller and thus retain their value for a long time too. Mk1 m50s still trade in for over 50% of their original MSRP.

I've also ordered the R50 today after seeing it in the inventory and couldn't resist the price. It will be my first camera and it's refurbished. How was your experience with it? Since I'm a beginner, I will probably go with the kit lens, but after some time, what would be your suggestion for a second lens? Also, I'm mostly interested in landscape and street photography.

I am also a beginner who also purchased the R50 to learn photography. I've really enjoyed using the R50 so far, although I'm still learning all the different settings and controls. Photographs are so much better than smartphones.

I'd recommend you stick with the kit lens for awhile before you jump into your next lens. Learn what focal lengths you like to to use before you choose your next lens. Learn how to use your camera, learn to use lighting, learn composition, learn everything. Like they say, "Your first 10000 photos are your worst".

Watch Marc Levoy's free courses [youtube.com] on digital photography

Also, if you wait. Sigma and Tamron just announced [sigmaphoto.com] new third party RF lenses for the APS-C Canon R series. I am also looking to getting into landscape and street photography. The 18-50mm looks like like a great lens for both.
