RF 100-500/4.5-7.1L IS USM First Impressions - A Point in Focus Vlog 2021-12-10

I just got my RF 100-500mm f/4.5-7.1L IS USM ripped it out of the box and these are my first impressions of the lens. I haven't even shot anything with it yet, other than a hand full of test images to make sure it works.

Also covered in this vlog is some thoughts on DXOMark's sensor performance testing for the EOS R3, and my initial thoughts on Firmware 1.5 for the EOS R5 and R6.
