Perhaps another step when using it on a tech camera, as the back has no way to control light hitting the sensor so it tells the user when it needs the shutter closed or lens cap on. But it still avoids so many steps that it’s easier and very nice when the scene allows it. really isn’t complicated, the back tells you in needs to do a dark frame, so you click the shutter closed on the lens, touch the checkmark on the back, and then open the shutter again. A step, but not complicated or confusing.Wow, using the ES seems to be complicated especially with respect to the Dark Frame.
Using it on the XF also has some advantages (as mentioned by Paul), and on that body camera handles the dark frame. I’ve been thinking of buying a used 300, which most of us have given up on because it is nearly impossible to get a sharp shot because of shutter vibration. I’ve heard the EFC has helped that, but now it seems very viable in some circumstances using ES.

Anyone tried it on a seascape with large portions of the scene covered by waves?As stated by Christopher. No problems so far with any natural subjects.
Clouds, water or leaves. Water is blurred anyway due to the shutter speed I tend to work with.
