Special Forces Command - a photo on Flickriver

            Swiss Special Forces Command (Kommando Spezialkräfte - KSK) during 2022 Axalp shooting event 

Perhaps helpful information for users of the Canon 1D series APS-H format cameras:

For some of Canons more modern EF-S lenses there are replacement EF mounts available to buy. The DIY mount conversion is easy, as there are only 6 small screws (4 for the bayonet; 2 for the contacts) holding the EF-S bayonet.
Additional advantage is the now metal mount, as there was always criticism for the plastic lens mounts. 

I have successfully converted following EF-s lenses to EF mount:
Canon EF-S 10–18mm f/4.5–5.6 IS STM (covers APS-H from ~12mm and even full frame from 14mm upwards)
Canon EF-S 18–55mm f/3.5–5.6 IS STM (covers APS-H from ~22mm)
Canon EF-S 55–250mm f/4–5.6 IS STM (covers APS-H at all focal lengths)

Now feel free to write me comments about the silliness of using cheap plastic kit lenses on professional 1D cameras :-)
