To change the subject, I'm not a vlogger and don't want to become one, but I have to wonder: using only Canon equipment, how would one construct a "perfect" vlogging camera? Maybe Canon sees the M cameras partly as their entries to the vlogging world, a world for which R cameras and lenses are just too big.

The infamous Andrew...
I can't post link here without getting banned.
Try "EOSHD" under google
It's actually the same Chinese guy as last time.
There are plenty of new temperature measurement that shows that Canon did a great job at keeping all temp under control.
Just a software that time the video usage to shut it down.

alot of pyrometer

I'd be more interested in a protest but how many really care about this? It's always the same old story when it comes to "progress".

I did finally preorder the R6. I am still trying to decide 70-300 ii with adapter or rf 24-240 for some extra reach.

a problem is you don't want the security camera to be so valuable that people just come in to steal the camera

Not a problem if you mount it between remote controlled twin 50's .

Any program or library that actually follows the standard and expects filenames to be in the specified format. It is beyond 100% certain that there exists code that only considers filenames that end with exactly four digits.

Can you name a few programs or libraries that do?

I got the same. I was hoping for better news than that. I ordered at 10:30 EDT and I’m wondering if I’ll get one before winter.

Great news!

So their interest in EF-M mount seems to show that the next M series will have serious video capability that production people will actually use it (along with their S35 A cam). This is interesting.

Hopefully it won't overheat. Since the sensor is smaller, might be a possibility. But then again, the hammer seems to never go away...

You have to use the AF tracking mode. There's a setting for "Initial Servo AF point for tracking" which lets you set it to the same AF point selected for single point modes.

I have my control ring set to change AF mode between single-point and tracking, so I can easily use single-point when I need a generic focus mode for one-shot or difficult servo situations, and then roll the ring to the left to switch to AF tracking mode. With the setting set to the same AF mode as single point, this makes it super easy to choose whether I want that single point to follow and track, or to act like a normal single-point.

Friends,

Before I purchased my Canon C200B, I extensively researched and watched most of the YouTube videos I could find about both versions of this camera. If you are in the midst of buying one of these yourself, here's a selection of my favorite most informative YouTube videos about both the Canon EOS C200 and the C200B that I hope will help you decide which one to get:

I was considering buying a Canon EOS R5 but after much research I decided to go with a C200B for basically the same amount of money ($100 more). I don't have any photography needs, so the C200B fits my YouTube channel needs. Following Rubidium's 10bit workflow was a big selling point for me (watch 'Canon C200: 422 10 bit Workflow').

I hope this helps other folks looking to buy their first cinema camera.

Cheers to your success!

Peace,
Ben

Was only replying to those replying off my initial comment. Canon has you on your knees, mate. Its perfectly fine to criticize your holy brand.

There have been plenty of superior products who lost the marketing war.

The classic example is VHS vs. BETAMAX.

Or Tucker vs. GM/Ford/Chrysler.

Click to expand...

As usual, lots of throwing around of 'marketing' without any basis in facts.

VHS vs BETA: Beta was more expensive for both the players and tapes, it's video and audio quality improvements were minor and not able to be discerned except on the highest end home theater setups, and most importantly, it's recording times were half of VHS which was a huge issue given the price of the tapes was also higher. It lost on price and features, not due to 'marketing'.

As for Tucker, starting a car company was hard and they engaged in some shady business practices which resulted in an SEC investigation. The demise of that company is again much more complicated than 'marketing' and they were actually innovative at that aspect for their time.

You're a genius!!!! I went into the software and reset everything and put it back on the camera and the menu option for IS was now available! Works great!!! Thank you...and sorry Canon, but I won't be buying the RF lens just yet. LOL

Great news. Enjoy your 50Art.

Before I sold my 5D4 I was on the verge of trying out EOSmsg. Never did though, but it's the only Windows app I know of. EOS R is listed as supported it seems.

thanks seniors for the guidance as always ..I love the canonrumors forum and members

RF has an 85 with another on the way, a 50 and a 35. Surely the next needs to be a 24mm. Either a 1.2 or a 1.4L or a 1.8 or a 2.0 IS. A 24mm something and the 70-200 f/4L IS are on my short list. I'm somewhat embarrassed to say that the only fast wide I've ever had is the 28 f/1.8 I picked up very early on before I learned about lens reviews...

I only use eye-AF in servo mode, which seems to be accurate enough on my RP and M6II. Does the hit rate increase for you when you use eye-AF in servo mode?

Thanks for the feedback. I'm yet to try it in servo mode. I'll give it a go and report back.. cheers

If I refresh the BH order page every 30 minutes, that'll move me up on the queue every time. Right?

She seems to be putting out a good amount of videos and even though she is a Canon EOL I have faith in her experience, photography, and enthusiasm and don't take her videos as infomercials. She did do a video on the 28-70 but it was on the R6, she liked the lens but it didn't really fit her style and she did say it was very heavy, but you probably saw that one too!

Click to expand...

Yeah, saw the one with the 28-70 f2 + R6.... was hoping to get an updated one w/ the R5.

I am still using the 24-105 f4 kit lens for that range, and am seriously debating replacing it with the 28-70 f2 vs 24-70 f2.8. With the R, the f2 wasn't really on my radar... but with IBIS, it looks way more attractive. The only thing that would prevent me from getting the f2 is size and weight... but not entirely sure that would really stop me. Always wanted to take up weight lifting again .

That really sucks, sorry this has happened to you. But now, we should see at least one R5 in the refurbished stock.

Andrew Reid bought a 1DXIII and returned it due to a malfunctioning scroll wheel, hard to believe given that its an EOS-1.

Ok I did another comparison, this time with something that wouldn't have a chance of moving. Both 10 second exposures at f16 this time, first one with IBIS on, second one with IBIS off. I also used the exact same focus for each. In the last one, I autofocused before each one, so that might have thrown off the results.

I really don't see a difference in this one.

AlanF said:

In your opinion, is it now acceptably sharp? If so, then fine.

Click to expand...

Looks a little soft to be honest, which is why I boosted the sharpness/clarity to begin with. It was at f2.8 on the EF 70-200 2.8 ii.
