The EF mount was introduced in 1987. It's 36 years old !! The reason Canon changed the mount going to RF 5 years ago, is because the communications interface was not fast enough anymore and they were running out of bandwidth. RF has so far allowed to add yaw and pitch information between lens IS and camera IS. Additionally focus breathing correction has now been added to RF lenses. Again, this was not possible on EF because of limited bandwidth on the 36 year old communications system original designed for 35mm film stills cameras.

I have both systems and they both are great in there own ways. I have 2 A7SIII and a Canon R5. I absolutely love the image of both but think the R5 looks more like cinema. I do love the dynamic range on the A7SIII and am hoping the R5II will be as good with 14 stops. The IBIS on the R5 and photography is unbelievable. This is why I reach for the R5 when I leave the house over the A7SIII.

Did you say the pocket6k looks more digital? Imho the bmpcc6k has better highlight roll off than both Sony or canon and looks more filmic but are a pain in the butt to use. Nice video btw.

PIZZA vs. BURGER - Why I switched to the BURGER!

CLog2 is considerably better than CLog3. But you have to step up to the C70 at that point. But my goodness the C70 is insanely good. I still think Sony’s skin tones are bit too orange saturated. Personally I think Canon’s skin tones look more natural and that was a big deal to me.

Thank you Brother, At least someone talked about Canon R5C, I also use canon R5C. Love from INDIA.

I'll have an R5C by May. Looking forward to upgrading all my gear

I just subbed and watching some of your videos now but let me just say that seeing those cameras without a cap exposing the sensor like That with the exception of the R5c is driving me crazy 😂

Your color grading is so good!

You should make a video about how to expose clog3 without an external monitor

very underrated. love your compositions. amazing, truly.

EF lenses adapted to RF work pretty much 99.9% the same as native mirrorless. I'm using all adapted lenses and they are super quick, super sharp. In fact my Sigma Art 50 1.4 is about 2x faster than the RF 50 1.2 (and just as sharp).

Yep I'm also on both systems. Sony for agency/production house work and Canon for freelance. Sony (A7S3/FX3/FX6) has better DR and low-light but Canon has 6K/8K/RAW and better color science. Lens wise, its kind of a toss up as Canon has RF+EF whereas Sony has a wider native E-mount selection. I love the Zeiss glass but also the RF/EF L glass. Ergonomics is a clear win for Canon imo. I'm really thinking of getting an R5C for the cine features and better IQ but I'm afraid of losing IBIS as I shoot handheld a lot.

The best comparision between these cameras i have seen and what a beautiful video. Sad to see Sony people (nothing against Sony at all!) giving you the thumbs down just for stating your choice... I have an R5C as well with the Canon RF 24-105mm F2.8L and it's a beast combo. Much love from Finland, keep it up!

Canon just "improved" the Clog3 performance on the R5C, curious if you noticed a difference.

love the look of your video. your LUTs look great in both systems. in my opinion, how much time and effort it takes to edit the look of the video matters and I find I can get the look I want faster with the Canon. I can tell Canon footage from Sony unless it's ultrastylized. I don't understand videos where people make videos to prove that you can make images from 2 camera systems look the same because, of course, you can take the effort to make them look the same but that's not real life. In real life, you have a desired look you want and then you edit to make that look happen. I think with the Sony cameras, they tend to be more greenish and as a result, as KZfaqrs have proliferated, videos tend to look more green these days so that's kind of been normalized. It's not hard to change it but everything you do adds to your work. But back to the video, I'm seriously tempted by the R5C but I'm kind of waiting for the R5 Mark II to see what that's like. Between the R5C and the C70, I prefer the C70 in terms of form factor, because it has Canon Log 2, and because it has the built-in ND filters which is such a convenient time saver. The dynamic range is also insane on the C70. But I love how crispy the R5 and R5C video is (and of course you can dial back that sharpness in-camera or in video) whereas the C70 will never look as sharp (digital sharpening still looks digital no matter the video editor). The supersampling of the 8K down to 4K is fantastic. But filming in 8k60 12-bit raw on the R5C is amazing and finally workable.

Love how you put this video together 🔥

I did the exact opposite: from R5C to FX3 😄In my opinion, everything is better on the FX3: dynamic range, colors, IBIS, autofocus, more compact body...It's a no-brainer for me.

i know this is an old video at this point, but giving the handling to the r5c over the fx3 because its easier to run around with and not need a monitor is kind of crazy to me. you get less than 30-45 minutes on a battery with the r5c, but can get close to 2-3 on one battery with the fx3. i swapped to the fx3 this year because i just couldnt deal with the hassle of the poor battery life with the r5c. overall i definitely preferred the r5c but yah the battery issue was tough for me. for a travel camera as well the fx3 can be muuuuch more compact.

If the native lens selection was a bit different I would switch to Canon in a heartbeat. The RF lenses are simply too big. Until now, Canon RF has no other chance against Sony (other manufacturers and especially 2470GMII) how does your PC handle the RAW files? With Premiere Pro (Win 11) I have no chance to play Canon's RAW videos properly at all, except as a proxy. That would be an interim solution, but it takes a lot of effort and storage space.

Damn! Excellent footage.

mean while a whole feature film was just shot exclusively on the Fx3... But let's blame the tools ya know? but in all honesty if the R5C makes you feel like a better creator then go out and make the craziest stuff with it. Would I have done that... No but variety is what pushes innovation.

Not a surprise. You’re coming from the BM system which is Canon EF mount so it’s a smart move to go with Canon and keep all your lenses.

I have the C70 and just order a R5C which should be here in a couple of days. I do not care for the Sonys but I know they are good cameras.

you resemble the actress Gillian Anderson... i choose the r5c anyday canon squad

Amazing intro!!

The R3 shoots in 6k Raw, which is really Clog2. And it has great handling and battery life, great for stills too. Also, F sony LCD, so low res. And the color is too green.

Insane content! 🫶🏻

Great video brother, I have a canon r5, I am debating if I should buy another canon r5c for videos but I'm seeing a lot of videos that the battery of this camera is sucks lol, even though I have 3 batteries already.

I am currently with Canon. However, I am seriously considering switching to Sony due to the dual native ISO (I am aware that R5C has dual native ISO, but it does not go as high as the Sony's). I keep finding myself in situations where I want to push the ISO. I really love the look of canon footage, however, I might need to prioritize flexibility over aesthetics.

Not many ‘youtubers’ promote or covers the R5C, not sure why as it’s a fantastic camera? Only issue is no CLOG2 and as a canon shooter that kinda hurts if I were to pay $4k+

Did you say 6k Pro has a digital look:) Jokes apart, how is the R5C in low light compared to the FX3? Also, the Canon has the EVF and creates great stills. Thank you.

Have you considered R5?

Great video. I was wondering why you didn't brought up any of the cons comming with the r5c. I am a sony user figuring if I will be able to switch but most of the reviews show a tons of problems with r5c

Does it REALLY matter? Is one TRULY better than the other? Honestly do not think so. People use Black Magic which you know is M43 & the footage out of that is pretty awesome (no not perfect) as well & used in big production movies and TV series or Panasonic or RED (Nikon know). Is it not whatever works best for YOU and YOUR taste!? ...is there a right or wrong answer here? I think trying to compare Sony & Canon is like trying to compare, Benz & BMW or Adidas & Nike or Coke vs Pepsi, Apple vs PC is it not a matter of what YOU like at the end of the day? 🍎🍎Sony got more lens (& 3rd) party, that might e important to YOU. You got me to engage, see what you (mission accomplished - lol) & subscribe and give you a thumbs up, look what you lol. You would looks great & I am quite sure which ever camera system you used it would work for you because it is truly about YOU, it always has been in the most positive way. ps: I like fuji color science the best, it just speaks to me and i do not shoot Fuji just incase you are wondering:)

What do you use to edit

Hi, thanks for the vid! I was wandering what was the lens you used for the part at around the 0:25 mark? Was it an anamorphic lens? Thanks in advance 🙏🏻

canon beast... epic comeback

amazing content! Subbing!

calling the Blackmagic Pocket 6k "too digital", when talking about sony is the funniest sh!t ever hahaha ... but like your style, nice shots! 🙂

Hello, can you help me, as you know, I downloaded an update for the Canon R5C, I don't know after the update, should I go to buy a Canon R5C or a Canon C70

Bro why are your sensors exposed 😭

Canon and Sony both are very good cameras but Sony invest much more money in advertising and fanbase. I prefer Canon for the same reason most people prefer Sony: body size. I HATE little cameras.

Man that intro video shot with the R5c did you shoot that in Raw or XF-AVC and what lens did you use

You seems really confused, the way to solve that is easy. just buy all of them!

i really laugh with the "cinema" word spam from all the people above... What is cinema? ANd mostly what is cinema to YOU... Cinema is a whole bunch of staff more than the main camera gear and we still use this word just a camera body that we own. Most of the industry is trying to imitate "cinema" by saying the soft image and the crappy oldie image of the film.. WHY THE HECK do we still try to imitate this? Soft image is nice but i really enjoy the full sharpness of sony and other cameras even in hollywood. So many movies where shot with very sharp cameras and THEY ARE CI NE MA! For me Sony always win overall. Even if i see an image in another camera i will never betray my 12800 iso which in most of the cases saves the day. Because guys...we are not cinema, we are videographers and mostly we do run n gun scenarios... I will be honest and say that i find r5c better than my fx3 but still in most of the real world scenarios i prefer my fx3! Also the industry is full of sony and when people reach out to find a videographer they prefer to be someone with sony to match their gear!

How do you manage battery life on the r5c?

nah canon def = apple sony = android

yes i agree Canon is like Apple and Sony is like Android hahaha.Canon gives u what u actually use in real life and gives u beautiful result without stuffing you with those unnecessary features that you probably wont use 90 percent of your life hahahaha

lets be honest those who buy sony and say good things about sony are those who likes to play playstation...they are diehard fans

nobody cares

It’s funny you say sony wins for lenses. I picked canon for the lenses alone! I don’t care about bodies i just want those gorgeous fast primes

I have fx3 and after watching r5c motion and cinematic colors, i hate sony’s digital video look.

mistake

id say Sony is more like Apple, in that most creators/influencers have theem. Canon is more like Android, where you know it's not the popular choice but we love them because we know lol

What camera did you take this video with?
