The R5 video review from DPR is up:
For the stills side, I did not get much news out of this. At 3:00 IBIS gets some praise as the best one found in any FF cameras. At 3:30 we also get some positive impressions about IBIS on EF lenses, especially coupled with IS EF lenses. That's good to hear.
Nothing too interesting on the EVF. I didn't hear anything about lag or perceived blur, but the tone was very positive.
Picture quality is on par with competitors in terms of DR and noise. Colors are still great.
At 8:50 the AA filter actually seemed to get a compliment as having only very little effect on sharpness while effectively combating moire. An in the sentence after, the electronic shutter read out (rolling shutter) get's called the best we've seen from any high res FF sensor. I guess that wording includes everything but the A 9 bodies?
At 15:23 the camera gets a recommendation for mainly stills people and it is said that stills shooting was never impacted by heating issues.
The second halve of the video is about video. The point their making is that the 8K, 4K HQ and 4K 120 mode of the camera are really great in terms of quality and are the main attractions for video folks. Unfortunately, these are exactly the mode that will build up internal temperature and therefore require making changes to your work flow and restrict how long it can be used. So the frustration comes from wanting to use these features, but having to compromise on shooting style in order to do so. Which is an understandable frustration I think.
Overall: Not the kind of insights I would want from a review. I think more valuable Info can be found reading the threads around here from people who were lucky enough to get one already.
