Wow ! This video was pertinent on SO many levels for me 🙂 I owned the R5 for a year, but after buying the R7, I loved it so much, I sold my R5 and bought a second R7 for my backup. So yes, for me, reach was everything ! Oh, and my favorite lens for my R7's, is my RF 800 F11 👍 1280mm all day long ! Jan, I'm SO anxious to see you do a full vid on this combo. I know how well it has worked for me, so I'm sure your results are going to be even better 🙂 The Allen's Hummer is awesome, AND it was my buddy who shot it 👍 And that final shot of the Blue Grosbeak, Fantastic ! What are the odds, I just got some really great shots of a BG myself only a few days ago. Still trying to decide on some shots to send you guys.... But your viewers shoot some crazy good stuff ! Stiff competition for sure 🙂 Thanks for the awesome video guys.

Good show, Jan and Glenn. I have the R5 and the R7 and I love the R7. I’ve had 3 friends switch to the R7 since I’ve had it. We are all birders and wildlife photographers and the reach that I get with the RF 100-500 and the RF 800 on the R7 can be really good and very portable. Today I was out after osprey, as usual it dove at a distance, but extra reach with the crop on the R7 really helped pull it in.

I need some advice, my wife has my old 90D with a Tamron 18-400 , The loves the flexibilty and weight of the lens, but has ZERO interest in swapping lenses in the field. I dont think much of the lens for wildlife,. Options are, another lens, any ideas? upgrade to a R7 or R10 with the Tamron. She was not interested in the RF100-400 because she wants the wide angle.

As of January 2023, I've been using the Canon R7 with my Sigma 150-600mm Contemporary. At times, the lens will not focus properly, but this does not happen often. When it does, I simply turn the camera off and then back on, and everything works well afterwards. A few days ago, I read where someone had updated the lens firmware and that brought on many problems, hence I won't bother doing that. I've tried Electronic 1st shutter curtain but switched back to mechanical shutter as my go to option. I must say I like the camera-lens combo very much and am amazed at the quality of the photos I've taken, including many of Cooper's hawks and the elusive brown creeper. On a side note, I was out up to 3 times per week all winter doing bird photography in Montreal. Canada, and I must say the camera battery held up real well in the cold. I was very impressed! Cheers and thanks for another amazing video guys :)

I used to have the R5, and sold it after I got my R7. May sound crazy to some, but I haven't found a ton of downsides for the "reach". It doesn't do as well with low light, but I accept it. I also gave up my much more expensive 500mm mkii for the 100-500mm. The stabilizer is so good, I just don't feel like I need to carry around so much gear. Personal tastes. F4 is great and everything, but how often do we actually shoot wildlife at F4? Very rarely for me.

Entertaining and informative as always! I agree with Glenn on the R7 rolling shutter. It limits the benefit of the electronic shutter, but then again the mechanical is still 15 fps which is usually enough. Still my main thought is the same as I had with the 7D which is, its an excellent camera in optimal lighting, but it lacks in IQ when the light is even slightly less than optimal. It is still a great value overall though.

The nature of the beast of APS-C. I don't find rolling shutter as big a deal as folks on KZfaq make it out to be. One or two warped shots here and there amongst dozens that are fine. I have been shooting a lot of flying birds and getting amazing stuff with electronic shutter (though I am using H, 15fps, not H+, 30fps). Detail is unbelievable! More shots are missed due to the quirky af (some shots soft even though the focus point is squarely on the eye) than rolling shutter.

I am fortunate to have both and can say each performs so well that I think it does come down to reach (both long and short). I actually prefer the R7 ergonomics, but do wish it had the quieter shutter and battery grip option of the R6ii. The biggest issue, as you guys pointed out, is getting confused when I switch back and forth. I don’t shoot wildlife, but the R7 is outstanding in my most challenging shoots, event photography in large poorly lit churches. Love the images I’m getting with both the 70-200 f/2.8 and 400 f/2.8. Now, when I need to go wide that crop factor is a problem. Enter the R6ii . . .

As hobbyist photographer and Nikon Z50 (with the kit lenses). I mainly shoot while traveling, family events and general photography. I like to start shooting wildlife and I have used my Z50 with the 50-250mm to shoot some wildlife, but the lack of AF and no ibis in the camera has made it a bit difficult. So I have thought of changing brands, but struggle with the cost of changing. So I may wait a bit longer to see if Nikon introduces a D500 mirrorless replacement with IBIS and lot better AF. Great comparison on the R6II and the R7.

Bought the R6 when it first came out and loved it. Then two years later I bought the R5. If I want to crop then I go to the 1.6 crop using my 800 f11. This suits me fine and don't see the need for a crop sensor camera. To add to the fun I also have the 1.4 RF converter.

Hi Jan & Glenn, this was exactly my dilemma end of last summer, like a month before Jan was the first to drop the news the R6ii was coming .. I used to love the EF 100-400Lii on my 70D, and of course the R6 which replaced my 70D in 2021 was miles better in nearly all corners .. yet it really made the 100-400 feel waay too short. And EF extenders came with a compromise. So I was torn between upgrading my R6 to the R5, or to add the R7 to my R6. Your comparison confirms getting the R5 was the right choice for me 🙂 I do understand the president of Canonda, but I'd say the R7 is the true heir of the 7D, yet we'll need the R7ii to have a successor for the legendary 7Dii and hopefully by then the suggested segmenting will happen ;-) As usual, awesome #birdphotoshow images and to the point remarks !

This video convinced me to order the R6mkii. I’ve been using my old 6Dmkii forever now so it’s going to be a nice upgrade. I miss the reach I used to have with a crop but ever since I went full frame APS-C looks mediocre. For me, image quality is king. I’ll buy longer lenses my 500mm f4 with 1.4x tc has worked for a long time now.

With the R6MKII, if you adapt it to a Canon EF-S lens, the camera will automatically crop it. The R6MKII will revert to FF for adapted EF lenses. So you have the ability to use RF, EF, & EF-S lenses on this camera. I just got one and it doesn’t disappoint. I’ll never get rid of my 90D and 5DMKIV but the R62 will become my go to.

Agree on the R7 sensor and body. I would rather pay a little more for something with a similar body, build to the R6II and faster censor readout. The shutter is much louder than the R5 and R6 and due to the poor sensor readout you will use it more often than on the other bodies.

I use the R7 daily and with FV mode I only need the front dial and rear wheel. I added a grip extender. I have tracking and eye af enabled on the front shutter button so I don't need an extra button for tracking or to enable the eye af. After shooting this way with the R7, the R6 felt like it had too many dials and buttons LOL. I love having the extra megapixels for cropping and I don't need 40 frames per second.

Completely agree that the rolling shutter is horrible on the R7. I want to use it more, but I only turn it on when I have to. The second minor quibble, which CBG solved, is there's no OEM grip/extension. I bought the extension from CBG and it makes using the R7 so much better. I also didn't like the layout change from my 7Dii, but got used to it. The R7 completely blows the 7DII out of the water aside from build quality.

I have both the R6ii and the R7, and I sold the R5. I think you guys did not give due consideration to the R6ii AF capabilities. I gave up on the R5 because the AF just could not get the bird fast enough. I've missed so many photo opportunities it was becoming frustrating using the R5. The R6ii is a huge step up in this respect because I can get the shot which I'd previously missed with the R5. Another birding friend also gave up on the higher MP R5 for the R3 and his backup is the R6ii. In terms of the MP count, through my month long use of the R6ii, I don't feel any major lost of resolution compared to the R5. I'm able to crop up to 66% quite easily and get good sharp shots. Bird photography in the South East Asian jungles isn't like putting up a branch and getting the birds to perch nicely on them. Babblers and especially wren-babblers are not attracted to open branches, so you won't get them on the 'ideal' perch as you like to postulate. Similarly trogons and broadbills won't sit nicely on open branches. I do appreciate PS's 'remove' tool in this respect, but most of the time we have to shoot them in-situ. I think you guys should be more 'open' to alternative bird photography, not every bird will sit nicely for a portrait.

R7 + R6 mark2 both are great combination.

With r6 mark 2 RF 400 2.8 becomes a real 400 mm monster.. with 2x Tc as a 800 5.6 lens even r6 mark 2 can capture great captures and witheasier framing.. So ..R7 plus R6 mark 2 combination makes all things better.

Great video! I think the choice between the R6ii and the R7 really comes down to personal preference. I shot with an R6 for 2 years after coming from Micro Four Thirds. I used several lenses with my favorite being the RF 100-500mm. I was excited when the R7 came out and pre-ordered the kit. I got mine the day after it started shipping. I used it for 6 months and while I got some great shots with it I was really never happy with it. But I didn’t want to go back to the short reach of the R6. I was very annoyed with Canon’s decision to skimp on some the specs of the R7 to meet a low price point. Since I don’t believe they will produce a crop sensor body with better specs anytime soon. So I sold all of my Canon gear and went with an OM-1 with the 300mm F4 Pro lens. I also have the PL 100-400 zoom and both TCs. I am happy with the choice after 4 months. The OM-1 feels much better to me than the R7. I have never even thought about the buffer because I have never noticed any issues with it. The AF works well in poor light. My R7 got noticeably worse as the light fades. We’ll see where things are when the R5ii comes out in the future. I do miss the RF 100-500. I do know several local birders using the R7 and loving it. It was an upgrade for them. For me it felt like and upgrade in reach but a downgrade in everything else.

I shoot with CRAW as it is recommended by canon and can shoot much longer than on my 7DMkII before the buffer fills up. I lso use fast SD Cards.

Have both R7 and R6MK2 button layout not a big deal. Auto technician for over 15 years repairing various auto makes and models so adapting to changes and layout is second nature for me. I like my RF800 on my R6MK2 more than it on the R7. But I prefer the 150-600 and my 100-400 on my R7.

There was a huge leap from the Canon 7D to the 7D Mk II. Many wildlife professionals jumped from the much more expensive 1D series when the 7D Mk II came out. I wonder whether the eventual R7 Mk II will be a similar leap in quality and features. Certainly, the R6 to R6 Mk II was a huge jump.

I'm still confused as to why Canon has a different button and dial layout for every body. I used to be a Nikon fan for their ergonomics and consistent layout from one model to another. Now that I've moved to Canon, I'm worried about switching back and forth between two Canon bodies and having switch gears in my brain as to the layout. I wish I had R5 money in my future but it's not going to happen. The R6 mkII could be a possibility though. Thanks for the comparison!

Canon is still looking ways to innovate their button layout. The video-stills switch is well received so Canon decided to implement on all cameras after R7. On the other hand, the wheel-joystick is somewhat controversial, so Canon decided to go back to the traditional joystick.

As a long-time Canon shooter, I have to agree that their current penchant for changing dial, button, and switch positions with each new camera release is frustrating. I understand that some changes may save manufacturing costs, but consistent and stable ergonomics have been a hallmark for Canon for decades. Constantly switching controls around makes it difficult for customers with multiple camera body models.

I'm going to buy the R8 precisely because it's a fast camera (electronic 40 and 20fps) and with excellent focus! Many told me that full frame is silly compared to APSC but when I personally tested it I saw a huge difference in the quality of the images, now for video also the RP is a negation but if I had to choose (R10/RP) I would prefer the RP for the quality of image! The best photos I have of birds, oddly enough, were with the RP and at the same time I had the 90D which was much faster without comparison but with poor focus and image quality below the RP.

I have an R7 after switching from Sony that I used for sports for the past 5 years. I have used Sony A9, A9II and Canon R6 mk 1. The R7 is a very good camera that takes very nice photos, but using it for anything fast moving highlights the fact the rolling shutter is very bad. I was spoilt using the Sony A9 series and Canon have only just caught up with the AF for sports with the current generation AF in the R7. I would suggest this is due in part to the significant sensor speed advantage the stacked sensors in Sony have had for many years. The R6 mk 1 was nowhere near as accurate as the A9 for fast moving small court sports. In the end the R7 is brilliant bang for buck, but I do throw away half the shots as they are completely distorted beyond saving. Photographing static subjects is fine.

I don't get the complaints on rolling shutter. I have been shooting this camera for almost a year. While it has its issues (quirky af that SAYS it's in focus on the eye, when sometimes it isn't), rolling shutter hasn't been a major one. I have shot a lot of flying birds and action. I get a warped image here and there, but not enough to be a major issue or make me stop using electronic shutter (which I need around sensitive birds). Would I prefer it never happened? Of course. But it isn't the issue (for me) that some make it out to be. Of course I do avoid the 30fps setting. 15 is fine for me. That's still 5fps faster than my previous APS-C camera, the 7dii.

I have my R7 for the reach. But . . . the first-curtain shutter is the first shutter I've seen that's so loud it frightens the birds. The electronic shutter readout is too slow -- not only distortion from rolling shutter, but variable focus. And the focus in/out can't be focus point shifting because, even at f/8 or f/11 (where it shouldn't make a difference) it ruins 2 out of 3 images. The R7 is almost purely a bird-on-a-stick or stationary bird camera. Very disappointing. But I keep it because 24MP isn't enough for bird photography. I will echo what so many have said . . . I would have gladly paid R5 prices for an R7 with R5 quality and features.

Having been a wildlife shooter for decades, and a very happy user of the 7D series, to me the R7 was never a true successor to the 7DII as a flagship pro APS-C camera and like you, feel it should have had its place as a different ID, leaving a space for a true top of the line APS-C unit. To me this camera was not a well-balanced unit. 1. The image capture system was bottlenecked - The sensor was too slow for 30FPS, resulting in shutter lag, it should have an a BSI/Stacked sensor, a bigger buffer and at least one CF-Express card - perhaps a type A with the ability to also use DS cards. Then it would have been an awesome unit - yes, more expensive but the right tool for the job. 2. The 32 MP sensor was not great dealing with lower light or higher ISO 3. No battery grip - both for energy capacity, but more so for the lack of balance with heavier lenses and lack of portrait controls. 4. I prefer that the controls across all my cameras are in the same layout, so moving the control wheel was not a positive for me. I have encountered far more people claiming issues with 3rd party lenses when using the R7 than any other camera. I put this down to a doctored focal system from the R3 but adapted to a far higher-density pixel sensor. BTW, Sigma put out a vide clearly stating that their lenses work with the R-series bodies, demonstrating that on the R6. I have had the same experience - no issues with the Sigma 150-600c or 60-600s lenses. I put this down to how the focus system is configured and it is reported to work better if the OIS on the lens is turned off and one use the IBIS instead. I agree with your conclusions about cropping, but on the suitability of output, much depends on what one is going to produce. For example the R3 is not really a wildlife camera per se, it's a sports camera optimized for fast transmission of modest-sized 23MP images to a client publication, and the likely use of such images on magazine-size documents, or digital output. Thus an R5 would not be so efficient. So, for similar purposes in a wildlife context, the R6 MkI and MkII have served me well - virtually all of my output is now showing on digital devices. Nice to see a BC photographer! I am a dual-citizen Canadian and Kiwi and loved living in BC. I still miss the macro mammals: orcas and other whales, bears, moose, mountain lions and wolves that I photographed when I lived there. Now resident in NZ, it's pretty much only birds now, and most of them are in the bush - and not the relatively sparse and open Aussie bush either!

How is the R7 inferior to the R5 for shooting birds and wildlife, pre-capture and macro when it's putting more pixels on the subject and a larger subject in the frame? I understand the autofocus is a little more jumpy but for shooting birds and wildlife and bugs and blooms out in the field how is the R7 a camera for beginners and the R5 so much better?

R7 AF is not as good as R5. Low light is ok. I use R7 in good light and walk around. Bad rolling shutter when using electronic shutter mode for hummingbird and panning. Have to use mechanical shutter for hummingbird

What’s your recommendation for a 2nd body if you have an R5?

@GlennBartley Жыл бұрын
Its a tough question. If money is no object then a second R5. But for me I still dont have a second mirrorless camera. Trying to make it to the R52 and then R5 will be backup.

Question, I currently own the R5 (coming from the R6) and primary use it with the 100-500. When I pair my lens with the 1.4 extender I see the quality and sharpness drop a lot. This is understandable ofcourse. I am curious how an extender on the R5 stacks up against the native lens on an R7. Is this something someone has an opinion on?

Personally I never like to use TCs on zoom lenses.

@@r2hildur I understand, what I mean is comparing an extender to increase range vs using the crop of the R7. The lens by itself is not soft. I've used sharpen AI and sometimes it is usefull to save a picture when you just missed focus by a hair or on fast moving subjects, but in general I tend to find the result over sharpened and only use it very sparingly or only in specific regions of an image

iQ will be be better with the r7 with no TC, as there is no loss of light and AF than the R5 with the TC

I sometimes use the 1.4x with the Rf100-500 on an R5 but have not noticed a drop in quality. If it's there, it doesn't seem to matter.

well, people should spend as little as possible of their precious time on image processing, as the latter could be time consuming, unless the latter is a primary source of their "unhealthy" income. Digital image processing, in most cases, translates into unhealthy sedentary lifestyle, also known as 'diabetes_typeII_lifestyle'. I hope that R6 Mark III will reduce rates of diabetes_typeII worldwide. Therefore, primary task for Canon, Sony, Nikon engineers is to minimize image processing, and the latter should be done on-fly.
