I have the R, I was considering an 'upgrade' to the R8,this has convinced me not to bother, the R does all I need,thanks for saving me some money.

I happy the R is still holding up against the other newcomers. Keeping my R for a bit longer!

I scooped up an R8 just recently with this recent price drop. Very very surprised at how good it is. So light and feels great in the hand despite the smaller overall body. Excellent picture quality. Excellent video quality. And with the right settings, the battery has been surprisingly well behaved. Very happy and surprised thusfar with the R8.

I consider upgrading from the R every once in a while, but it's still better suited for me than anything than came after it. The R5 is objectively better, but you really have to NEED those features to make the price worth it and I just don't. The R has fallen out of favor since it's older now, but it's one monster of a stills camera for the price.

Your videos are so informative, while wildly entertaining, and fairly succinct. Awesome job, man.

Ive had the R8, it was really impressive for the price and 4K 60 with no crop with amazing low rolling shutter latency 👌🏻

I must say the Canon EOS R held it's ground 👍, it's still a sharp camera 👀

Preferred the R8 in the split side by side, but I spend time color grading 8 and 10 bit video. Not sure most people would notice much difference... and that's surprising. The tones and variation of color is much better on the R8 imo.

I use an R as a B cam to a C70. I shoot in 4K all the time…crop, yes but after tweaking the picture profiles in the R I can get fairly close to what I need. The R is a work horse…a good lens goes a long way too. People basked the R so bad when it came out and the used ones are selling like doobies in Toronto.

Really cool of you to give away the Action 4 to an up-and-comer.

Very happy with R8. Very capable video camera for outdoor sports. Do need to keep an eye on temperature when recording longer at 4k 60.

10:30 even when you are Toneh, the disappointment was visible in your face lololol

surprisingly entertaining, hard to find other review that really talk about the dynamic range. its very different in a good way. eos r is ok i guess but if you are from RP its definitely an upgrade

“I have this do you want to buy it” made me lol

You can clearly tell by the highlights in the trees that the R8 has better dynamic range. Which is nice. But my heart is with my Original EOS R. And I dont mind a bit of a glowing background.🙂

I’ve just bought a used R and love it, it’s satisfying to shoot with, lives in my bag with the r7

this man is hilarious but very informative !

One more thing I forgot to mention the R records in two codecs for each frame rate All-I and IPB.

Great review dude 😀Added a sub. People seem to be panicking over R8 not having IBIS where I think that the digital stab does a better job anyway. Had the R6 with the weird warping when trying to use the IBIS with wide angle lens - the R8 with the digital one produced much better results - especially with the Canon 16-35mm f2.8. Even better if you've got lens stabilisation + digital. If you need a proper stabilisation in shots there's no way around a gimbal. As for battery - adding a battery grip totally solved that for me. Also an USB-C battery pack did an amazing job.

I wish Sony made entry full frame camera like the R8 full frame 4K60p, good digital stab , false color , subject detection only AF are really good

Waited for this. I got the R8 and bought additionally a Powerbank which can quick charge. I even can run the camera with it, has to be a battery inside but for me it does the trick.

Well, for someone coming from a 70D the R8 is a beast. And also,from what I can gather the R8 is more of e replacement for the RP than the R.

You have shutter protection on the R8 Start a manual cleaning process and turn the camera off as soon the shutter closes.

One of the truly GREAT intros, you little whippersnapper! 🤣

I like Zeiss for their 3D pop effect specially the Vintage Carl Zeiss lenses

The R8 footage looked yellow compared to the R. Having problems grading C Log 3? Outaide, they looked the same but the Zeiss lens on the R8 has more pop.

hahaha want to see some sharp, its my knife)))) killed me from the beginning bro)))

Loved this video, it hit on so many levels with what I am currently contemplating for my next move to shoot video with the vintage lenses I have supplemented with some of the EOS lenses I have for shots I need autofocus with. I like that there are a few affordable RF lenses for hobos that don't jave $3k to spend on new lenses for a new system. Sony a7sIII is definitely a target camera I know would perform well but it is out or reach at the moment and if I wait till I find one used for a decent price we may be living in an appocoliptice world with no more digital media and we may have reverted back to filming on 8mm mechanical cameras in the post skynet wastelands. The R8 looks better than I expected and you've peeked my interest. Great video again! Thanks for sharing this content!

Yes the voice Iso worked pretty good to cancel the jacket sounds .

Thanks for the video. Still rocking the R in 2024.

“1080p is the sweat spot you little shit!” Hahahaha Love it!

I own an R. If Canon had put a joy stick and the wheel on the back, like my 5Dii and 1n RSvit would be perfect. I love what the Zeiss lens did for it. I think the color is better on the R than the R8.

I have a 42 inch 4K monitor. The 4K is clearly nicer. The Zeis Lens on the R8 had much better colors. The RF 50mm T1.8 looked more washed out. Now, we don't always want the "skittles" look, but it looked nice in the clip. Apparently, the R8 does not know how to find close things, unless you choose subject detection. The R8 at 4K had brighter colors. Especially in fall that is nice. Might be freaky in the high desert. Glowing green cacti? You should send the Action 4 to MarcusPix. I bet he never got a nice present from somebody, despite how nice he is.

😂 the beginning skit was hilarious and informative.

Canon really does have nice color science. I might try one. I’m no good at color-grading.

The wig thing killed me dude. Hahaha

The R8 is more of a replacement for the RP than the R.

Thanks for this video!! Although there were a few situations in which the R8 in 4k looked better to me than the R in 1080, overall I don't think it is a substantial enough upgrade for me to ditch one or both of my Rs and go to an R8. Very much appreciated! Hate to say it, but I may actually consider trying an R5C one of these days. That might just be the answer to it all, just have to rob a bank first.

I could listen to these dialogue clips for days!

Canon´s color science is really a pleasure, and it´t more important than 120 fps ff or other spec. Colors look much pleasant than Sony . No need to spend time adjusting colors in post.

My rebel t6i with the zoom kit lens is my favorite

What camera would you recommend to have squirrels roll up and chill with you? My budget is $100 USD, need active stab with 2 inch sensor. Thanks.

5D v < Ra < R5 < R5ii < R5iii andd.... 6D < 6Dii < RP < R8 < R8ii or R6 7D < R7

I am shocked to admit… the R „feels“ more cinematic and nicer to look at, than the r8.🤷🏻‍♂️

Read the R8’s spec small print… keep the RF lenses on RF bodies and leave the vintage lenses on DSLR’s 😉

I am in hysterics--the slow mo focusing killed me

Hey Kasey. You can just buy a cheap 40bucks grip for R8. The grips made for RP fits perfectly fine on R8. Put 2 genuine batteries inside and voila.. You have better grip..better battery life.. R8 is a crazy good camera both for video and stills. The false color is a game changer. Even the semi pro Sony video cameras didn't have it inside. Unlike the histogram it stays on while recording. Just the false color is enough to pick this camera over any Sony. Super easy to get the correct exposure every time. Unbelieve camera for the money! Edit: There is also a workaround for the curtain to be closed while changing lenses. You can go to the menu and choose manuel sensor clean and while doing so shut down the camera. Now you have the curtain closed on the sensor while changing the lens. Edit2: The digital stab is amazing as you said. I think IBIS is only handful for stills and if you need it R6 m2 is there but for video no need for the jerky ibis help in Canon. Edit3: Yes the Canon video codec is hard to edit on most PCs. But buttery smooth with any mac with m1 or m2. Edit4 (lol) : This camera also has much much better rolling shutter performance than most of the other 4k cameras out there. You don't need to get afraid while moving your camera fast :)) Why would I choose a Sony ZV-E1 or even A7s3 over this camera? Maybe a little more dynamic range. But terrible screen at daylight , no viewfinder on mot of them and no false color will eventually force you to buy an external monitor. I am not that much geek sorry :) I will not rig my camera to look pro :)) I am pretty sure R8 will sell a lot.. Canon did great this time!

This young man his SOOO entertaining 🙏🏾😂😂

the Planar looks much better than the RF 50 when you are in focus. The background blur is more pleasing.

"...snap your neck..." LOL! Thanks for the morning laughs, have a great day...

Man!!!! That was a dark intro... LOL! Cool video though..

Wild how you got 85mm compression on the OG R using a 50 in 4k. 😂 17:27

Planar rules. One thing that gave the RF50/1.8 away was the horrible field curvature. Thats where the Planar name comes from, being very well corrected for a perpendicular plane of focus.

Nice one just upgraded the old m50 to a rp but that was looking for something to use for landscapes while I kept the 200-800 on the r6ii but found the rp just too small so just upgraded that again to the R as my 2 nd body plus I’ve got a few spare batteries for the R already so looking forward to trying it out alongside the r6ii and see how they compare

On my 32" 16:9 4k Benq, there is a noticeable difference between 1080p and 4k. Even on my 16" Wacom. On my phone, not so much.

Straight to the meeting 🎉😂

As an upgrade from EOS RP, that's way better! not bad at all. You have more RF or EF lenses, aren't you? Let us hear thee blessing of reviews.

I owned the Eos R and now own the R6 Mark II and it's a huge upgrade in almost every way. Even the 24 MP I find upscales to match or beat the 30 MP on the R. The only downside is that the R had a body more like the R5 with a bigger LCD and a top LCD too. Can't figure out why Canon put in a smaller LCD and removed the top one on the R6/II. The R8 is a much, much cheaper price point than the R when it was released. Internals are better but the externals are most likely not. The R6 is the successor to the R imho not the R8 (which is a RP repalcement).

Thinking about upgrading the Eos R to R6 mark ii, but still love my R, also I have many L Lens but finding myself using tamron 24-70 2.8 95% of the time so still can find justification to move to RF 24-70

5:30 at first picture seems too yellow, but then i realised that you were looking so much younger

After watching all the this Canon R8 and 8 video, it all just blurred together and I have no Idea what camera is what! But great comparison! Btw who is your co-host? Seemed very nice!

The R8 with Zeiss is nice!

Interesting that the R8 and R used are comparable price wise. Shame it’s not the case in the UK. I’m thinking of upgrading from my old 100D to either the R or R8

Can you tell what mic did you use fro this entire video test? So clean...💯🎧🔉 Thanks for sharing!

i kinda preferred the one with jacket sounds. it feels more right like it's supposed to be there.

Thanks for always being so interesting and informative. You have a wicked sense of humor that always makes me laugh so hard. I’m wanting to be a vlogger and I think I have a good sense of humor but when the camera turns on, I feel like aunt Bessie that’s stuck at the back table just hoping somebody will fix me a plate of corn beef and cabbage. Anyway, keep being awesome, informative and always funny.

The video on the EOS R so so much better IMO. With the R you can film in 1080 ALL-I and upscale it to 4k for KZfaq and it looks great.

Apart from the Canon R, Is there any other mid-range Canon camera that supports the ALL-I compression mode ? This feature is rarely mentioned by reviewers and people giving commentaries, although it affects the quality of the videos. A pity that the ALL-I option has not been retained on the Canon R6. You have to pay extra cash for it on the Canon R5.

I just got the R8 and I agree the stabe on the R8 is better than Sony even my Z-VE1 with Active Dynamic. I don't know what magic they do over there at Canon but the stabe is amazing. I plan to do a Z-VE1 vs Canon R8 video to see which is best. Cheers.

04:12 YEEEEESSSSS, You did it-- B-Roll:-)

The squirrel behind you was in focus..animal tale detect on..🎉

1080 p Is the sweet spot u little s word 😂😂😂😂❤❤it!1 classic

I have had the EOS R since it came out. I have always used 4K. I used a Canon 16-35 4L. The video is very good. I have never understood why people didn’t want to use a wide lens can complained about the EOSR 4K. Silly. The 50mm 1.8 RF lens is not in the same league as the Canon 16-35mm 4L. Your test was not a fair comparison. A cheap lens versus a good lens.

I like the R8 vintage better, i chose that one. Looks more like a documentary, professional

I think it would sound much more natural if you would add some silent artificial noise after doing the voice isolation run.

The zeiss blows the canon out so badly its not even funny lol. Beautiful glass. Although 90% of people wouldnt even notice

R for the win! Oh sorry, that's for photographers. Still, R for the win!

I like cinematic look on cameras released between 2016 and 2020. Since 2020, they look more poppy but I prefer editing my files like on the Sony cameras look (more flat and cinematic and poppy only on brighter light)

This look is sick bro

Looks like the R8 colors are snappier and a little more contrast

Please review the pocket 3.

the digital IS on the R8 is really exceptional

WOW,... dope episode. SUBCRIBED.

Canon only has 3 EOS cameras that can record Video in ALL-I, the rest record Video in IPB. They’re the EOS R3, EOS R5 and yes!! the EOS R. The EOS R records 4K cropped ALL-I video!, it can also record IPB video. ALL-I has lower compression rate than IPB.

Good review. Thanks to MarkusPix- always the best!

Lmao I love this guy 😂

Alll these fancy 4k comparisons. Now I have to get 4k monitors to follow along. Can you actually tell the difference in youpoop?

4k vintage lens vs HD new lens. Genius!

dope video informative and hilarious . 🔥🔥🔥 I shoot with the R its great.

Switching to the R8 at 4:40 was bad, dunno if it's a grading issue, but the OG R looked far better. I was considering 'upgrading' to the R8 but the battery is a killer for me, but I guess the R6 Mk2 was really the intended upgrade path for OG R users, that, or the R5/C

He’s funny great video 😂

Guess I should start vlogging just so I can take advantage of this generous offer

Wow I haven’t watched ur videos in a while and now you are not trashing Canon? Apparently people can change for the better. Cheers

If I only want to do portrait photography what should I choose between R, R6 (mark 1) and R8? All 3 have the same price in my country

A new video from CC 😍 about my future camera 🥰 what have i done to deserve this?

By customizing quick menu, do you mean the one that looks like the old DSLR style, with no image preview, or the one where the buttons are around the screen? If you mean the view where the buttons are around the live preview, you can customize the buttons that appear and their placement.

I want to get the R8 but I would also have to get a whole new set of lenses coming from apsc. Does gopro 8 count as scrub status?

R* Shutter acts just like an RP. go to Clean sensor now and press. When you hear the camera sensor click turn the Power Switch off, Shutter will close. When you turn Power Switch on the shutter will open and you're ready to go!

I liked the R8 with Zeiss 50mm. Though I can't say I can always tell without you pointing the combination out. I'm not sure if that says something about me or about the quality of the lenses and cameras.
