I currently have a Canon R5 on pre-order but i feel like i could be making a very expensive mistake.
Firstly i want to say that i own the canon 1DX ii and that i am a wildlife photographer. I am interested in the R5 due to its animal AF capabilities and the 45MP. I feel that it will be beneficial to me.
But i also feel as i am used to the 1DX then maybe the R5 isn't for me, Smaller form, not as rugged, the battery life does concern me a little also.
I have thought about getting the 1DX iii but it doesn't have the feature i am most looking forward too (animal AF)
Do you think that a R5 would be a good purchase if you owned a 1DX ii? would you consider it a downgrade even if it would be an additional camera (still keep the 1dx ii)
If you owned the 1DX II and was looking at getting a new camera what would be the deciding factors against the 1DX iii & R5
Do you think the R5 animal AF is not a big deal against the 1DX iii AF?
I would love to hear peoples opinions, i feel it could make me look at things in a new light.
I have worked out that it will only be around £1500 in difference between the R5 & 1DX iii after i have brought the grip, another battery and a card for the R5
