I read some posts saying that they are not reviews for stills of the R5. It´s a true, there aren´t and I guess it´s because Canon didn´t allow youtubers with pre-production cameras to put stills online. I only saw at the moment some stills...of course we need more to see the sensor capabilities. But....When you see a video review it´s kinda like seing a stills review also. The AF capability is the same thing in stills and video. And that animal eye af...Woaahhh!! Also with the image quality..after watching some videos in youtube i just think that the image quality in still it will be superb!! Of course...we all expect more reviews and more examples...
Regarding for video....So much as been said about his camera....My god! Yes....overheating do concern me....I can´t lie. But unless I do use the camera i can´t say for sure it will be a problem for me! And that´s why I bought the R5...and the R6!
When overheating the R5 I will pass to the R6 giving R5 time to cooldown. Only thing I lose is the 120fps but I´ll get more 30minutes of 4k60fps
I am a wildlife filmmaker and Yes I intend to use this camera as a primary camera! I want to sell the Sony Fs5 mkII. Because a lot of reasons but the primary reason is portability! To have a camera that can record 10bit 4:2:2
[email protected] this without the need to carry an external recorder...Ohh...and totally weather sealed! Man....this is insane! This means 2 less backpacks and lot´s of less worries with weather!! To add, having this wonderful DPAF II will improve a LOT the possibility off using AF to track animals!!!
Just need some days in the field to test if I can do that (use it as primary camera)! In wildlife, shots usually don´t last too many time and I usually shoot in the Arctic and Antarctica so maybe I think overheating will be less painfull...What concerns me is Africa....
Well....I am just waiting that my retailer calls me and tell me the good news...! "Hey your R5 is on the way!!" I´ll let you know after how it behaves!
