I'll be heading to Yellowstone National Park this week end. I'm only going for a few days, maybe 4 at the most.

The camera I got is the Canon R7, its a mirrorless crop sensor. So that means that all my EF lenses wouldn't work with the camera inless I put an adapter on the lens. Now when I am spending that kind of money I do my resurch so I new what I needed and how I would configure the camera for my type of photography. The camera came in Tuesday so I spent a good part of my evening setting it up the way I
