Hello, Johns Hopkins Medical School is an unreliable source? Please explain why you think so.

Hello MrOllie. I have replied to your impression about undisclosed financial stake at [[User talk:Alex.Thunder.UA#March_2021]], but you have not reacted. Are you going to fix the template or undo to the earlier versions of affected articles, or expect me to do that? 
[[User:Alex.Thunder.UA|Alex.Thunder.UA]] ([[User talk:Alex.Thunder.UA|talk]]) 07:35, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

As there is no any feedback, I've undid the "undisclosed payments" changes as mistaken. Please let me know if you have any concerns.

Hey there, I've run into a few of your reversions in the past few days. You can report some of those accounts to [[WP:UAA]] if they meet the criteria, usually I see accounts where it's not clear it's being run by an individual (e.g. 'TechNews' instead of 'John at TechNews'), and those accounts often linkspam, etc. For example, I reported the user you [[Special:Diff/1011784459|reverted here]]. Just thought I'd let you know. (Twinkle has a UAA-reporting option under the ARV dropdown menu if you haven't seen it yet.)

:You're trying to advertise for diffgram. One of your colleagues was blocked for doing the same thing last summer. If you keep this up, I think it is likely that your domain will be added to the spam blacklist.

== Communities magazine updates ==

Hi Mr. Ollie,
Thanks for being alert to this kind of thing. I am NOT being paid to update these pages. I am doing it because a reader alerted me to the fact that the magazine information was grossly out of date, with expired links to its previous publisher. I am the one best positioned to update it, as I am indeed the magazine editor, but I am actually not being paid at all even for editing the magazine right now (let alone for any Wikipedia entry updating, which would not be paid anyway), as the nonprofit is short of funds. I am responding not to any staff-related instructions or offer of payment but instead the requests of a reader, who wanted to see the information current but didn't have all the info herself. I hope that's acceptable. I spend very little time on Wikipedia myself, which is why I didn't realize the page was so out of date--I hadn't looked at it in years. I just wanted to make it more current. I hope this meets your concerns. Thanks. [[User:Ornithologistics|Ornithologistics]] ([[User talk:Ornithologistics|talk]]) 17:44, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

:If you work at the magazine, you are considered to have a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]] under Wikipedia's policies, and you should not be adding links or editing the magazine's article. - [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]] ([[User talk:MrOllie#top|talk]]) 17:47, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

== Pentagon's UFO Videos ==

I am simply following the rules as provided to me. There is currently pseudo science on the Pentagon's UAP Videos page from a retired video game programmer that is making unsubstantiated claims. He is stating that the Navy's AN/SPY-1 3D Radar system has mistaken balloons for advanced aeronautics craft. A retired video game programmer is not a recognized authority on classified military technology and has intentionally ignored the fact that these systems are able to identify the difference between a balloon and aerospace vehicles. The an/spy-1 gets data from a locked target from multiple sources and could not have been a balloon. This is not a possible or even plausible explanation and has not been scientifically peer reviewed or backed up by any credible sources.

== References to sites with camera or lenses image samples ==
Hi [[User:MrOllie|MrOllie]], in my opinion, links to website with image samples are valuable reference for users but I do understand the concern of excessive links in references.
For consistency and to keep competition equal advantage, can you therefore remove links to pixelpeeper on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panasonic_Lumix_DMC-FS3 ?

==Features==
The Canon EOS R6 camera uses the [[Canon RF mount|Canon RF lens mount]].

It is also possible to use older [[Canon_EF_lens_mount|EF]] and [[Canon_EF-S_lens_mount|EF-S]] lenses with one of the three available EF-EOS R mount adapters.

The R6 uses the same 20 MP sensor and [[DIGIC X]] image processor as the [[Canon EOS-1D X Mark III|Canon EOS 1D X Mark III]].<ref name="dpreview" />

It has [[Image_stabilization#Sensor-shift|in-body image stabilization]].

It can shoot 4K video at up to 60 fps, and 1080p video up to 120 fps, in 10-bit C-log or HDR.<ref name="dpreview" />

== Reception ==

=== Overheating issues ===
Shortly after the EOS R5's initial announcement, concerns arose about issues of [[Overheating (electricity)|overheating]] while recording video, especially [[8K video]], after short periods of time. In response to users' complaints, Canon issued a media alert addressing these overheating issues, including how long it will take for the camera to overheat at each resolution, why a fan was not included, and how users can prevent the camera from overheating. According to Canon's reported data, the EOS R5 will begin to overheat after recording for just 20 minutes at 8K resolution. A fan was not included to preserve its compact size. Users can delay overheating by toggling on "Overheat Control" in settings, which will adjust [[Image resolution|resolution]] and [[frame rate]] automatically to prevent overheating.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Rumors|first=Canon|title=Canon releases an official statement about the EOS R5 and EOS R6 heat concerns|url=https://www.canonrumors.com/canon-releases-an-official-statement-about-the-eos-r5-and-eos-r6-heat-concerns/|access-date=2020-07-19|website=Canon Rumors|language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Canon Explains EOS R5 Overheating, Why There's No Fan, and More|url=https://petapixel.com/2020/07/14/canon-explains-eos-r5-overheating-why-theres-no-fan-and-more/|access-date=2020-07-20|website=petapixel.com}}</ref> Although Canon offered this explanation, users have continued to complain.

Other testers, however, discovered continuous shooting is possible for up to four hours in 4KHQ mode with an external recorder if no memory cards are inserted, the screen is off, and a dummy battery is used. With an actual battery, again overheating can be avoided for the life of the charge of the battery, about an hour 45 minutes.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnG00Fhu5pI</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_xqX4_Qe9E</ref>

The '''Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* E 24mm F1.8 ZA''' is a [[wide angle lens|wide-angle]] [[APS-C]] [[prime lens]] for the [[Sony E-mount]], announced by [[Sony]] in December 2011.<ref name="sony">{{cite web|url=http://www.sony.com/electronics/camera-lenses/sel24f18z/specifications|publisher=sony.com|title=SEL24F18Z Specifications | α Lenses | Sony US|accessdate=2017-06-18}}</ref><ref name="dpreview">{{cite web|url=https://www.dpreview.com/products/sony/lenses/sony_e_24_1p8/specifications|publisher=dpreview.com|title=Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* E 24mm F1.8 ZA: Digital Photography Review|accessdate=2017-06-18}}</ref><ref name="imaging-resource">{{cite web|url=http://www.imaging-resource.com/lenses/sony/e-24mm-f1.8-carl-zeiss-sonnar-t-za-sel24f18z/review/|publisher=imaging-resource.com|title=Sony E 24mm f/1.8 Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* ZA SEL24F18Z Review|accessdate=2017-06-18}}</ref>

==Build quality==
The lens features a thin [[aluminum]] shell over plastic internals and a detachable petal-type lens hood. The lens showcases a minimalist black exterior with a Zeiss badge on the side of the barrel, nearly identical to [[Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* FE 55mm F1.8 ZA|Sony's Zeiss-approved 55mm F1.8]] full-frame lens.

Given its unusually high 1:4 (0.25x) image reproduction ratio, the 24mm lens can be considered a [[Macro photography|pseudo-macro lens]].

Its autofocus is fast and silent.

==Image quality==
The lens is exceptionally [[Acutance#Sharpness|sharp]], on par with Sony's other Zeiss-approved prime lenses.
