    Here are different ways to cool the Canon EOS R5, watercooling and more

    Many use the DSLR/mirrorless camera for Astrophotography done this long ago... they cool it to below zero. I think some company sell this type of modded cool camera.

    Breakthrough Photography announces the all-new EF to RF filter adapter

    I create a simple diagram to illustrate this. The drop-in filter adapter is actually longer than the non-drop in filter adapter (basic and control ring adapters) to compensate the change of back focus due to the drop-in filter. If you use a drop-in filter without any filter, you might not be...

    Breakthrough Photography announces the all-new EF to RF filter adapter

    The filter is install between the lens rear element and the sensor, so the filter actually change the back focus distance of the lens (if you compare all the EF to EOS R adapter, you'll notice that the Drop-In Filter EF-EOS R adapter is slightly longer), so if you use the Drop-In Filter EF-EOS R...

    Tilta shows off a cooling module for the Canon EOS R5

    Astrophotographer had been modding camera to active cool the camera sensor, so I don't think it'll be difficult to do, but will void the warranty.

    The Canon EOS R5 will begin shipping before the Summer Olympics

    COVID-19 start to spread in Japan, so IMHO, it might impact the release date.

    Patent: Eye-controlled autofocus for mirrorless cameras

    If the eye control focus is responsive enough, I think will be very useful for wildlife especially BIF.

    Canon officially announces the Canon EOS R system

    Hi, When change lens, the sensor is covered... finally, Canon had some common sense. I hate changing lens with my M5 in the field as the sensor is fully expose to the element. Have a nice day.

    Canon officially announces the Canon EOS R system

    Hi, IMHO, this is not a sport and wildlife camera... it's basically a 6D2 with C-Log 4K. I personally will wait for the next EF or RF mount 7D3 or whatever. Have a nice day.

    Canon officially announces the Canon EOS R system

    Hi, I think Canon will still develop new EF mount lens because EF lens can work on EF/RF mount and the drop in filter is really useful.... only those special lens that can take advantage of the close flange distance will use RF mount. Have a nice day.

    Opinion: Canon is causing its own problems with the RF mount

    Hi, I think it's possible that Canon reserve the EF-M mount for the very compact and small mirrorless system. If this is true, future release of EF-M lens should be compact and small. Have a nice day.

    Here are the full Canon EOS R specifications

    Hi, I think someone answer this question already... Canon Rumor copy and paste summary miss an important piece of information. If you look at the pdf file, this table is for Auto ISO mode. Since the camera don't know the exposure time (B mode), it'll not be able to determine the required...

    Here are the full Canon EOS R specifications

    Hi, IMHO, IBIS doesn't always work well in all lens especially the longer focal length lens.... that's why Sony longer focal length lens also have optical image stabilizer in them. Also, if your camera IBIS stuck or fail, all your lens loss image stabilization. Have a nice day. PS: Still...

    Here are the full Canon EOS R specifications

    Hi, As usual, Canon bashing begin even before the camera announce... :p Hmm... -6EV with F1.2 lens, so -5EV with F1.8 lens?? :unsure: Anyway, this look like a mirrorless 6D2 with 4K if the launch price is same as 6D2. If so, I think it'll sold as well as the 6D2. Have a nice day.
