At least this will stop all the people screaming "CROP 8k cripple hammer canon is *******"
Edit: as long as its not using Mjpeg.
When the market started shrinking and a sizeable group started using the word ‘*******’ when describing Canon, I remember thinking ‘but they’re making solid business decisions’...
This is good solid business from Canon. I’ll be the first to admit, I’m sure it’s reactive, not proactive, but that’s okay with me. Bring on the camera!
I am loving this camera already! From a wildlife photographer and videographer this camera is reaching everything we desire!I will definitely preorder this one and for the first time in my life I will preorder something! It´s just a pain to wait for it...And hopefully we can have a reasonable number of cameras in July or sooner, why not! :D Canon, my birthday is on 23rd June, this would be a hell of a present!
BTW, today i started building my R sistem. I bought a EOS R and a RF35mm. My firsts of the RF and R sistem! Happy! ;)
This might be the biggest “all in” of them all.. I predict a MASSIVE success...
Depends on how far over budget. I can always save a little longer if I get that more capability and further future proof. I am just concerned over currency fluctuations.
I read some YouTube comments and it's hilarious. There's still some people out there who seemingly didn't read or understand any of the material that was released. Almost as if they just mindlessly keep beating the old 'Canon is *******' drum for the sake of it :ROFLMAO:
For the slow guys: Canon has dominated the ILC market without being leading in specs for a long time. This R5 leaves a ton of other bodies in the dust on a number of specs. And you can see the hype that's created. Hype! For a Canon camera! Has there ever been such a thing? :unsure:
There’s no need for everybody to get excited, but acting as if this was a boring Camera release and they should do better is beyo d silly.
