I had some off time between workshops, so I headed out to scout and try out the new R3 thanks to Chas Glatzer and CanonUSA. The focus and low light performance is quite amazing. It took a bit adjusting to the eye controlled focus tracking, but I'm growing to like it more and more.
Will it replace my R5 as my main body for wildlife? I doubt it. I’ve become spoiled by the R5's detail and cropabilty.
That said, in low light (it’s definitely the cleanest high ISO files of any camera I’ve shot) or where I need 30fps the R3 would get the nod. They are two different tools, one not better than the other.
