Hi V! I’ve been using my new-to-me R5 for a while now. I’ve shot a wedding and the reception, and recently my first bridal shower (which was, in all honesty, quite boring). I knew the R5 Mk II was soon to be released before deciding to go ahead with purchasing the R5. I have no regrets. But I don’t rely on photography for income so I can’t really say if the Mk II would be better for the full time working photographer if they already have the R5. What say you? 👍🏼👍🏼💜👍🏼👍🏼

Hey appreciate the comment. As of right now I haven't had the R5 mk II for 24 hours yet. Initial impressions are good but i'll need more time to get to know the quirks of the camera before I can say anything with certainty. It's going to be hard to top the R5 because it's such a good camera. In a month i'll make a detailed video comparing the R5 and R5mkII and i'll have a solid answer for you :)

You don't advise to back up your camera settings onto a blank SD card first as the update resets the camera and your settings will be lost. I know, I was that man.

The EOS R is perfect for studio environment und professional work. Unless you rely on 20fps for whatever it is perfect. I have it since day one. Perfect piece piece of gear. Don't let the nerds tell you about a single card slot, 4k crop bla bla. If those things matter to you you probably have 5k for a r5 Mark II 🙂 For everybody else it's perfect. My girlfriend does weddings with the eos r. No problem. For aprox. 800 bucks it's amazing.

That's strange. Did you unzip the firmware before you transferred it onto your card? You need to unzip the download you get from the Canon webpage before putting it on the card. Another option could be that there is something wrong with the firmware. Maybe try downloading it again. Other option could be an issue with the SD card. Maybe try another card. Hope that helps.

Non the R5 has a 30min record limit. Hopefully Canon gets rid of that in a firmware update. But if you use an external recorder like the Atomos Ninja V you can record pro res raw for hours. It all depends on how big of a hard drive you put on the Ninja V.

I don't bother using a DSLR or Mirrorless for videography. I have a dedicated video camera that is DESIGNED for video and it won't get hot or overheat and shut down. its the Canon Vixia HF G60 camcorder. It is an amazing video camera for the amateur. If you're more of a pro Canon also has a lineup of professional video cameras. The current Canon Vixia HF G70 Check out the XA60, XA65, XA70., XA 75 and XA605 Prices range from $1599 to $4300 which at the end of the day will save you lots of cash. If your work is more serious then the Cine line of canon videography equipment the EOS C70, EOS C300, C400 and C500 prices start at $6,000. Additionally, beginning with the XA line of cameras you can have two XLR terminals plus 4-channel linear PCM bring a suite of pro audio options. You won't get that from an R1 without spending more for accessories. You will have magnificent video but less than acceptable audio unless you move up to the pro series of video recorders. Why spend the money for a video camera shoved into the body of a SLR/DSLR when you can have a body designed AROUND a video camera from the ground up.

I used the price as the factor that determines entry level. But it is more of an entry level camera for photographers than videographers. There are better options for video. By the way the EOS R can shoot 10bit 422 via an external recorder.

Hey! I know this is an off topic question but I have an RF24-105mm F4-7.1 IS STM and whenever I zoom in, the f stop raises and the image I’m looking at through my LCD screen gets darker, is that normal?
@MichaelThomas-qh4yv14 күн бұрын
Yes, this is normal for a variable aperture lens like yours, as you zoom in, the aperture closes down; thus making your image darker. I trust this is of help. To over come this effect you would need a "constant" aperture lens, say the 24-105 F4L IS USM, or 24-70 f2.8L lens.
@vaskoobscura_13 күн бұрын
Yes it’s normal. Your lens is a variable aperture lens. It ranges from f4 to f7.1 as you zoom in. A constant aperture zoom lens will maintain the same aperture when zooming. Hope that helps.
