So many options, but what one is right for you?

Hi, people who watch videos on youtube. If a video is only in 360p, it means youtube is still processing it. We export in 4k, we're not going to put out videos with terrible quality. Give it a min to process.

I can't afford to be watching this. I'll check back in 6 years 😱

36:05 Amen. I own the 6D Mark II. It's limited, sure, but everything you said after, especially Glass Glass Glass, and knowing what you're doing, compensates for it. It's does the job.

This is premium content right here. Personally I care more about the informative nature of this channel than the "what I had for breakfast today" vlogging nature of other channels out there. My opinion. Thanks, Jared.

We currently shoot weddings with a 5d4, a7r3, and 1dxmk2. The best tracking, focus, and reliable images are still the from the 1dxmk2. Still get more keepers from the 5d4 with the 24-70ii vs the a7r3 with the GM 24-70, but most likely due to the ability to fine tune focus points on the fly faster in the DSLRs. Favorite camera to use for stills is definitely the Sony. I can't wait for the next evolution in mirrorless, but for now I need the the ability to adapt to changing conditions of weddings and nothing does it better for me than the 1dxmk2. I have used the a9 and I still have trouble switching settings at the speed of the cannon. Missing a shot can be everything, that's where the 1d and d5 prove their worth

Jared, well done. Great side by side by side by side by brick. Very comprehensive and your commentary hit the important points. Also, Sierra Hotel to Stephen and Dan for the excellent production. For me...I’d grab the 5D IV...dual cards, weather sealed, and relatively affordable for a professional level camera.

Really love these comparison videos! One thing I think would be a great addition is a chart at the end showing which cameras won in which fields, as well as the total amount of checkmarks accumulated by each camera. These videos cover so many specs that sometimes it’s hard to keep track of exactly which areas a camera did well in, and there might be specs that are more important to some people than others. Keep up the amazing work!

I'm using 6D mkII as when I bought it Canon's mirrorless was just a gossip, and to be honest I would buy it again as RP doesn't seem to be as good (but is cheaper so I'm not sure) and R is too expensive. But I need to point that 6D II has built in bluetooth and GPS and you can select focus point on the back of LCD by just moving your thumb around the screen. Also you can use Canon Camera Connect app exactly same way you can use it with 5DmkIV. I don't think this are game changing features but probably worth mentioning. Anyway cool video and thanks for making it.

As an amature nerd that doesn't do video, the R would have been the dream, but at a $1,000 more without a good eye AF, the RP is a no brainier. I just got the RP yesterday with the RF 24 to 105... struggled deciding between the combo or the R at this price, but I don't have a lot of EF glass. But this glass is amazing..super sharp, super fast focus....the RP is a great camera.

EOS R all the way! Thanks for making all these videos. They really help.

I would go for a 5D Mark IV and i actually did! I will miss my vari-angle screen from my old crop sensor one, but to me that would be the only downside compared to the other ones besides the 1DX MK2

I don't find good videos on youtube very often. This is one of those that gives a lot of info and very well done. Great job.

LOL “ I’m not used to big things in my hands”

Get the one that inspires you to use it more. The EOS R has been a nice change from years of using the 5Ds and 6Ds and I find myself using it more.

DUDE! Not the brick! Hilarious!

I want that brick desperately cause it takes nice photo , nice video and even comes handy on hand-to-hand combat. 😁😁😎😎

I'm saving for the Canon R with grip and control ring adapter. I've invested in quality EF glass and like the idea I don't need to micro adjust mirrorless body for my lenses. I'm upgrading from 6D II, which is a great body within reason but the AF capabilities of mirrorless and accuracy of focus point positioning vs actual focus point position matching due to EVF is what has sold me, not to mention RF glass options. I found my optical VF with 98% coverage was focusing slightly above the actual displayed focus rectangle in VF, which totally sucks when trying to nail focus with shallow DOF, and contrast detect focus seemed to trump my phase detect focusing with DSLR technology. That's why Canon R seems a worthwhile choice for me, even though I fear that if I buy now, Canon will launch a pro R body that will leave me wishing I'd waited.

Probably won’t even see this but I just wanna thank you for all the work you put into these videos. I have watched endless hours of your content and learned so much. I ended up getting a 60 mark two and putting a 70-200 F4 is ii on it and my outdoor sports shots have become insane. Definitely about to buy your Lightroom package and take them to the next level.

every time the brick came up i was dying. absolute gold

“And this brick will definitely kick your ass” IM DEAD 💀 amazing vid

"Before the Olympics in 2020". We all know how that went down.

for work 1dx2 is the main body and 1dx is a second or backup, EOS R is the secret weapon in silent/quiet situation, but using EOS R silent shutter with extra caution in most indoor situation and it is quite challenging. thank you for your detail video.

I just want to point out that I've seen the 6d2 with a battery grip for $1299 several times now. Just gotta wait for the end of the year sales. Makes it a pretty tempting purchase.

I chose the EOS RP. Since buying the body only I have purchased a UHS II card, the RF 35mm lens. Full frame goodness at a price under the EOS R with a better card as well as a RF lens makes this a wise choice for me and my budget. I am a happy camper, lol!

Since the Canon 5div and 6dii are part of this video, those are the cameras to look at first. Why? Because they won't be around for very long and the mirrorless cameras will be. Maybe not the exact models but a version of them. If you want/need a dslr get them while you can. Lens mount is a consideration. Think about those features you really want or need. You may not really need a given feature or miss a given feature. Respectfully, not all cameras need video. If your business requires video, OK you do. But there are those of us who shoot only stills. Video capabilities don't just come along for free. Though it may seem so. Having video as part of the feature set, likely effects the mix, ie. you may miss out on something you woud prefer as a result of video being included. Finally, "if you know what you are doing." Your right, Jared.

I still use a 5D MK3 and a 5D MK4 for event photography . I am looking forward to the next 5D MK5 , hopefully sooner.

Just got my canon mark lV.. looking at the 5dsr next

I'm seriously considering the EOS R

Canon 1DX Mark II. It still rules. Sport/Action/Wildlife.

I use DSLRs, and I don't really care about edge to edge because I only ever use my center point, and the 'focus and recompose' technique

Used my EOS R for a paid shoot yesterday and the single memory card DID NOT FAIL . . . but the glass is amazing

I'd say the RP or the R are the best ones for me. I couldn't care less for video, I enjoy macro, architecture and landscape (in that order), so it would be hard for anybody to distinguish between a still and a video. And I really like the smaller size. Coming from that, the RP doesn't offer too much additional value to justify the price, except for the higher resolution. However, this is a big advantage for macros. Hmm...

This was a great side by side! I am looking at the used Mark IV versus 1DX II and you made it a much easier decision!

Jared, can you do the same video with a aps-c lineup? 7d, 80d and m50?

Broh..the brick is legend, it can give you a house. seriously :)

I love my 5d mark iv!

If its a Canon then its all right for me. If money wasn't an issue the 1DX Mark ll wins hands down for me since i'm only interested in photography and not video. Can't wait to see what the 1DX Mark lll is going to offer, for now the 5D Mark IV is awesome. How about learning how to hold a camera instead of IBIS, you do realize that you don't need IBIS it's just a marketing strategy hyped by Sony. Optical stabilization is better than IBIS. Okay maybe IBIS is good for video, if that's what floats your boat! Great video Jared, this must have been hard for you since your a Nikon/Sony shooter hahaha

I do think the “R” is the best (if you can afford) of the line up. It can fit the new glass (which is claimed to be fantastic) and has really good 1080p and focusing (which I believe is the most important), only bummer is no 120fps.

I want eos rp, i don't care what people say but rp can make my job done as wedding photography. Currently owning 6D mk i, and none of my clients complain my photo's.

You forgot about the 5Ds & 5Dsr! But they need an update!.

Jarod, I know you’re a very busy guy. I want to say firstly, I highly enjoy your content, and ability to break things down. I’m a little lost in a choice. I’ve been doing a huge amount of research. I started my career with the canon eos 7d. I started with it with the mentality I would learn everything I could, and push my camera to its complete limits. Small portrait sessions, big, even a couple weddings, and between the camera and really good editing, with my skill set now, I’ve achieved gorgeous images, but I’ve done what I set out to do. Push my camera to its max. A big problem is low light (dynamic range) coming back from shadows etc. it falls apart at like 3500 iso. I know my camera is way out of date and with my thought process, I was thinking about jumping into an rp for a year, and saving next season to make an r5 my main, and rp backup. So I’m thinking rp main 7d back up. Do u have any sort of advice. Yes I’m on a budget atm. I’ve seen so much hate on the rp, but it looks like a huge upgrade from my favorite dinosaur. Interested in ff, and expanding my wedding capabilities. I’m a firm believer it’s the man behind the specs more than the specs alone, but yes, it’s a time for an upgrade. Any help would be appreciated

You should’ve included the 5dsr in the mix also, you can still buy it new. I shoot with the 5dsr and 1DX2 and unless I know I need the fps or higher iso capability I’ll grab the 5dsr over the 1DX2 all the time.

I wonder how Sony's Eye autofocus compares now with the R & RP with 1.4 firmware update.

Dear Jared, with all of these mirrorless cameras what will be the outcome of the 7D MK2? It’s solid, quick, rugged, weather sealed and faithful in rash weather. Cheers from The North.

Great review from the Fro. You're selling me on the EOS R for sure. Now to get the funds...

Hey Jared, why don't you make a video about the Fv mode on the Canons. Flexible mode lets you shoot manual style faster.

There is no single all-purpose body, each of these have strengths and a common audience of buyers. Mechanical vs mirrorless doesn't make the picture any better. Most cannot buy multiple bodies to shoot optimally for sports with a 1dx2, landscape/portraits with 5d4 or R, timelapse with R. Instead most will hope for the best buying what they can afford like the 6d2 or RP and do just fine.

I love the 6D M2 and the 7D2 as well. The 7D2 is great with a long zoom lens like the Tamron 70-300 for street photography, because you can be a long way from your subject and still get the benefit of the crop factor (eg about 420mm on the above lens). Its 65pt auto focus will still allow a lot of coverage of the frame and allow for rule-of-thirds style portraits. On the other hand, the 6D2 maybe will need a little cropping with street photography and you have to be a little closer to your subject. In very busy places, with a 24-105 lens such as the Sigma, you need to be a little nearer your subject, but even if you have to allow for the 45 pt auto-focus in editing and crop a wee bit, the resolution is still about 25 megapixels. More than the 7D2. The 6D2 is fabulous though, for portraits and for subjects such as architecture and landscapes, that can't answer back and ask, "Why are you taking my photograph?" If you have time to frame your subject, the 6D2 will always give the best results. My answer to those who point to either camera's slightly out of date video capabilities is, can you really tell the difference between 1080p and 4k? Especially when viewed on an iPad or even a 27" i-Mac? I would guess that in blind testing, the answer would be no in either scenario. The 6D2 and 7D2 have video capabilities that will thrill anyone moving from their mobile phone - even if that has 4K. As Jared points out, it's the glass in front of the camera, and even the kit lenses associated with an APS-C (18-55mm), will give much better results than a tiny piece of plastic on a mobile that has been stuffed in a handbag or pocket, and has never been cleaned.

I just bought an EOR r to replace my 5D mkiii but im keeping my 5D as an backup.

I just got a 5diii with the 24-70 f2.8 in the 10year anniversary kit for 1400€

I just picked up the Canon 6D Mark ii a long with the canon 24-105mm Mark ii AND the Tamron 150-600mm G2 I love my setup. Thanks for the awesome vid✌🏼🤘🏼from Denver Colorado

I have an eos r and if you set to shoot only in raw, not raw + jpg, it will automatically transfer a copy to your iPhone in raw format, and if you have a network connection you are safe because your backup is in cloud. So, in my opinion, this is the best backup.

It’s like comparing every Volvo in their lineup. They all serve a purpose for someone.

Just bought the 6dii the rp is to slow for a mirrorless the 5div I was thinking about it but I bought a another L lens. first FF still have my 77d n t6s .. 6dii good starter

Thanks for that video, most informative. I'd like to see a similar line up for Nikon and Sony.

Jared, have you done a video on high ISO and the grain of a picture. I find that the higher the ISO the more grain you get. Is there a way to reduce grain at high ISO?

6d Mark II

do this for the rebel line

Best 360p in 2019! Mine 200 Mbps connection is struggling

None of them. Waiting for a better R camera (30-40MP). Canon are buying time by releasing EOS R, RP to ensure their next R camera is good enough for 5D3/4 users to upgrade to.

Thanks for giving me an intelligent description of each camera now I can choose the one that I want thank you!

Hey Jared, great video. I was wondering, since there at least 4 lenses for R mount already released, could you do video compering old canon system vs new system. Not just a lens or camera but complete system. And maybe also adding Sony and some other ones that have similar range glass. Thank you!

Great video Jared as always. From some of the things you mentioned about the 5D Mark IV, I’m feeling a lot better about my 5D Mark III. Looks to me like the Mark IV wasn’t really a REVolution over my Mark III per se, as much as it was an EVOlution...and maybe not as much of one as people would have wanted at that. I’m still saving my cash right now for a Nikon Zed 10 professional-grade mirrorless camera. That camera doesn’t exist yet, but hey...details!!!

Great review as always I'm torn between 5D Mark 4 and New Eos R 🤣🤣🤣

Cool comparison; but it leaves an empty spot and me wondering... why did you omit a brick for the 5Ds/5DsR? Although it's the oldest beast of those, it's still a current camera along with the other ones you included. Perhaps more of a niche camera, but should win hands down for Canon shooters who shoot architectures, landscapes and studio work. Personally, I'm not even tempted to change it to any of these cameras - only Canon's rumored high-res mirrorless camera will likely change it.

Thank you!!! EOS R PURCHASED LAST NIGHT!!

Thanks, that’s very informative, I will go for 5d mark IV..

Thanks for the reviews. I have an SL1 and am looking to upgrade probably to the 6D Mark II. I just do vacation photos which are mostly landscapes and architecture photos.

Hey Jared, Could we see a 70-200 Tamron G2 vs Sigma Sport battle? I'm on the fence as to if the Sigma is worth the extra $300. Shooting with Nikon D5600 with plans to go full frame soon. GO FRO!!

Thanks Jared. This video was very helpful. I'm looking for a new body the 2021. This was very informative.

Glad you mentioned the fact the vary angle screens don’t stick out straight....really made that feature bittersweet for me on 6dii. Moved to 5dsr and never looked back. Also the AF and arrangement of AF points on 6d vs 5d/7d series... It’s too bad, there’s a lot I liked about my 6di/ii but canon is intentionally crippling the series to distinguish between it and 5d/7d

Thank you, this was very helpful in narrowing down my options!

Jared good review! Would have loved to see you do another canon comparison including canon 90d.

I have the 5d4 & 7d2, holding out for Canon full frame mirrorless with IBS, one can hope can't they? :)

So, if you merge Colin Kaepernick and Jeff Lynne, you get Jared Polin! LOL!!! ...Seriously though, thank you for the comparisons! I was actually considering some of these so this was really helpful, but I think I might pull the trigger on the EOS 5DSR because, I think the extra detail and resolution will fit my needs (among other things), and the price is lower because it's older, so I think it could be a good value option for what I'll get...

Finally I choose the 6DII, because the 4k it doesn't important that I should have

The price of 5d mk IV is much lower now, in Europe you get it at 1700-1900 euros. Fantastic camera. We will see how R5 will be.

Why is the Canon 5Ds (R) not included?

I mainly like the big shiny *NIKON* sign in the back of a Canon camera comparison! :-D

Great vid. Love listening to your style of presentation and thought process.

I would pick the EOS R, 'cause it's like the best option ignoring the battery life and the slow speed shooting... Edit: BUT the Sony A7III is better, ignoring the fact that can't use Canon lenses without an adapter, so it slows the focussing process.

Great survey, would be interested in a comparison including the 5DS R as well.

Hi Jared. Thanks for this comparison. I am late to the game but planning to upgrade to a full frame from a Canon T7i. This video has been helpful. One thing I haven't figured out yet: How will NOT having Bluetooth on the 5D Mark IV effect what it does? Right now, I can open the Canon app on my phone & download photos to the app. Will that option go away with the 5DMarkIV? Thanks for taking a moment to reading this. I appreciate your videos! Angie

Hello. Thank you for your very beautiful video. I wanted you to help me buy a new camera My previous camera was an 80D lens, and I mostly use it for theater photography, portrait photography, and modeling. Please, between these two options, which one do you know is better for my work: theater photography, portraits, and modeling Canon 6D Mark 2 Canon RP

1:02 If there ever was a "Best Reviews Moments of the Year" this should be a strong candidate. Epic.

“if you don’t know shit about…” hahahaha I needed that thanks Jared, you rock!

Fro! Love your videos, you are still not mentioning that the EOS-R cameras also support the EF-S lineup with the adapter. Which may be a selling point for those that have had a Canon APS-C camera for a few years, and have "specialty" EF-S glass such as the EFS-60mm Macro, or the EF-S 10 - 11mm.

on a budget, which camera of those you recommend for shooting sports and possibly small time filming would you recommend the 6d mark II, 90d, or the Sony a7III

I know I'm late to party on this video, but I just wanted to say I have the 6D that I use for motorsports photography. I love it and it works great. Would I love the 1Dx, HELL YES but at the time that I upgraded from my 8 year old rebel XS it was all I could afford. I am however now saving up for a 1Dx to use as my primary since I don't think the Canon mirrorless at quite there yet for motorsports photography.

Hi Jared, I am a newbie photographer looking to shoot portraits and headshots in a studio environment only! I have a small space in my studio apartment perfect for this! I would like your opinion on which camera would be better for this? A Canon EOS 6D? or a Canon EOS 1DX Mark II? Thank you in advance for your advice.

Great review Jared

Great video Fro thanks. Excited for the RF future

thanks for another great video Jared, still unable to decide , so I guess I will wait a little longer.

Awaiting an EOS R Mk II with the bump in FPS, then I'm in.

I absolutely love your videos. You have made me laugh when I needed it and taught me things I didn't know I needed to. Thank you. 🥰

Seriously considering the EOS R because of the spec and this review. Stuck between the RP and R. With current prices I’d have the RP with RF 24-105mm lens for the price of the R body. It’s difficult to choose between the extra spec or extra lens.

Is the 1DX MII the cheapest Canon camera with dual card slots right now? I'm going to shoot my first wedding soon and would be much more comfortable having that redundancy.

Thank you jared.. I'm going with the rp

In November 2018 I picked up the 6Dii refurb for $1,279. Not a bad deal at the time. First FF camera.
