Mirrorless Cameras (MILC) and Lenses

OTOH the 24/1.4 has highly distortion and needs to be severely corrected for rectilinear viewing.

Is whatever Sigma 70-200/2.8 all that fragile or sensitive to heat/humidity?

As with all things Sigma, it's bulky AF. It's forgivable for an everyday walking around 24-70/2.8 but the long lens is an extra-special complication.

AF was never the strong suit of Sigma.
Have you ever used the 150 or 180 HSM macros, the last ones before OS?

I think the only non-stabilized EF/RF lenses I have are my Sigma 50/1.4 and Canon 100/2.8 Macro.

The Sigma tele macros had super slow AF on natively EF DSLRs. They are actually a little better on MILS.
I don't know the AF issues with the Sigma 70-200/2.8, but the Canon RF 70-200/2.8 Z would be better in almost every way.

Adobe is apparently increasing the price of its baseline Photography plan from $10/month to $15/month for users paying monthly. It's still $20/month to get the 1TB plan monthly and $120 for the plan if it's billed annually. I think Lightroom Classic + Photoshop is the cheapest package deal it has either way but even if they don't change the cost of the annual plan, knowing that they can just decide to charge more whenever they want is a huge reason I've never signed up in spite of the temptation to do so.

Reading your post inspired me to go see what the price here has done. It went up in the middle of this year. And it seems they learned from the cable TV industry years ago. I only want Photoshop, Premiere, and Illustrator, but the cheapest way of getting that is paying for everything.

Resolve Studio is $350 as a lifetime payment and Corel Draw shows up in Humble Bundle for like $20 every three months or so.
