So much more than an R5 with a fan, the Canon R5 C really did surprise me. Here are my full thoughts on the R5 C and how it stacks up against the regular Canon R5.

I bought the R5C 20 months ago with my primary business being photography but pressure from my clients to shoot film. Having a high end performance cinema camera paired with everything bar IBIS really smashed it and increased my business. The battery really isn’t an issue. Photography just use normal batteries however if using for film use a dtap battery in your pocket or rig it up. Shutter angle has spoilt me. Never stress about calculating shutter speeds. Audio options, limitless 4k 120 & 8k 60. I don’t find the fan on the back makes you anymore visible as a photographer. Number of customisable buttons is a game changer. Simply love it. It’s a true hybrid of both professional stills and film.

Why would anyone want you to shoot on film, film is vastly inferior. That's like choosing a Ford Model T over a Ford GT.

I have two R5c cameras and they are fully rigged out. I have used them extensively for TV productions and they are outstanding. My clients have many times said how excellent the image is. I rigged them out in part to have my high end clients feel good...but do love the matt box, monitors, cage, follow focus....etc...part of the system when needed. And when I don't need all of those attachments, I have a small portable camera that is excellent for video and stills.

Awesome! I've recently made the switch from the R5 to the R5C and it's been incredible. The battery life (for my style of shooting) hasn't been the biggest issue. I'm loving all the R5C specific features and it has been well worth the switch.

Awesome man! Sounds much my like experience with it. Battery wasn't really an issue at all, I was using the power saving mode mostly though!

@TKNORTH, Lucky to have both and as you mentioned, if shooting mostly stills, it’s the R5. If more video or hybrid work, definitely the R5C for all the things you mentioned in this video. Have a couple battery solutions for long form recording on all day shoots. What bugged me the most was Canon never lifting the 30min recording limit on the R5. But as you said, the R5C video mode has so many options and menu like the C70 and cinema cameras without internal NDs and other audio options. But the OIS + DIS is way good enough for handheld.

@TKNORTH 5 ай бұрын

Sounds like a great set-up to have! Since I currently still have the R5 and R6 it would probably make more sense to switch to the same... still considering it! Yeh I hope to see the 30min limit gone on the R5 MII, slowly seems like more cameras are ditching this.

Great video. For someone who is using a 5D MarkIV to either the R5 or R5C what would you recommend for someone who mostly shoots stills but really appreciates a good video menu? Also, I’m primarily traveling with it, occasionally diving with it in a housing shooting video.

i switched to sony last year and while i dont regret it outright i do miss the stills i could take on the fly. the battery life was just so bad for shooting video. even with the power saving modes using this thing as a travel camera was so inconvenient (for me). with my sony i bring 4 batteries and only have to charge every 2 days or so

I hope the R5 Mark II is an R5C without the fan, but with IBIS and the dual/separate menus. Which would make the R5 mark II the true "hybrid" the R5 should have been to begin with.

@TKNORTH 4 ай бұрын

I would like to see the R5 with similar features but I just cannot see it happening! I think Canon will keep clear separation to their cinema line. Hopefully I am wrong though 😆

@FrontmanMedia Ай бұрын

I do a lot of hand-held video shooting and I'm so incredibly impressed with the IBIS in the R5, that the lack of IBIS in the R5 C has been a deal breaker for me with the R5 C. I'll stick with my R5 and C70 for now.

The only thing that lets me down about this camera is the inferior auto focus

@TKNORTH 4 ай бұрын

It definitely was notable at first, but once I tweaked the settings and sped up the speed a bit I didn't find it a major downside - although I also wasn't using it on any fast moving scenes. That slower adjustment for video can definitely be useful at times, but it is quite different to the R5.

@ksharky888 4 ай бұрын

@@TKNORTH I totally agree on it being great on slow moving subjects especially when the subject isn't moving towards or away from camera, I find it struggles quite a bit when the subject is further away (maybe 1/5 of the the frame) it tends to shoot the focus to the background. Occasionally using tracking auto focus and tapping on the screen, it will also not pull focus. I've tried many of the settings but doesn't seem to get to a good place compared to r6 II. Would love to hear what your settings are if I've missed anything 🙏

my canon r5c camera broke down, the motherboard burned down, that's what I was told at an authorized service center in Georgia, I'm on a business trip and I can't get support from Canon, they don't respond to my emails. The service center in Georgia refused to repair the camera because they sent a request to Canon and Canon reported that they did not have a motherboard for Canon r5c. I can't work, my camera is broken, the service center has refused to repair and canon support is not getting in touch. Thank you very much canon company!

The fan is in a separate compartment. It is sealed from the internals and has the same weather rating as the R5.

Lol semantics. The camera is jus an R5 with a fan and works well on stills. I don't know who will be shooting in rain with any camera.
