Built-in GPS was NOT mentioned. So no built-in GPS in the R5 II?The EOS R5 Mark II is a worthy successor
GPS would’ve been amazing but I guess they didn’t manage to fit it in

4K is only sRAW, isn’t it? I never used sRAW. Can anybody explain?4k RAW is just awesome
I would agree on the R5, lets hope noise is controlled in this new sensor, but it also looks like the suggestion that DR was to also be increased is not true, nor any mention of illuminated back buttons, Currently does not look offer any improvements for low light landscapes work.I\'m worried about the low light performance. My current R5 struggles quite a bit when it gets dark, is there any significant improvement?
Said on the spec v2.0 though unless that will be updated via firmware.Of course, cfexpress is compatible in both ways, you can use a 4.0 card in 3.0 camera in vice versa.
You know that is not going to happen.“can capture an incredible amount of images through its super high-speed CFexpress dual card slots. Plus a UHS-II SD*** card slot”
That reads as if there are three slots.
Why would it need a separate shutter shield if it has a mechanical shutter which can functions as a shutter shield. It’s only a matter of „software implementation“ but the shutter is already in the cameraIt has a shutter shield?
Canon is doomed.
As I suspected, it looks a bit underwhelming for landscape photography tbh, if considered as an upgrade from R5. Seems like it'll be a great step forward for sports/action/birds/wildlife, but I don't see great selling points for landscape. That is, why upgrade to R5II from R5 if you shoot landscapes primarily?
PS. It'll be even more underwhelming if there's no built-in GPS (again useful in landscape/travel photography).
No mention of dynamic range yet tho, so there's still a chance that it'll be a good upgrade if you just want it for landscape.As I suspected, it looks a bit underwhelming for landscape photography tbh, if considered as an upgrade from R5.

it says cinema names not OS. You have to realize how confusing it would be for people that used canon for decades to get 2 menus out of no where. Most sills shooters don't have a cinema camera to be comfortable with it. The R5C also had a delay when switching that is terrible for people that do events and shoot video and photo back to back.As an R5C owner i'm stoked at the R5II and will definitely buy one.
Clog 2, full HDMI, 4k Raw, Cinema operating system in video (if you haven't used it it's AWESOME), optional cooling grip for continuous shooting without worrying about overheating, better AF in video, better rolling shutter - i'm actually surprised Canon gave us so much. Perhaps it was Sony and Nikon pushing the limits that woke Canon up and got rid of the dreaded Canon cripple hammer!
I'm slightly disappointed at it being CFe 2.0, but I hope that it's full speed 2.0, e.g. 1700MByte/s, not the 500MByte/s the R5 is limited to. Also, €4800 is more than I expected, but not 'needing' the more expensive CFe 4.0 cards cancels out the difference“Card 1: CFexpress memory card (Type B, CFexpress 2.0, VPG400 supported, up to 2 TB)Card 2: SDXC/SDHC/SD memory card (Compatible with UHS-II, Eye-Fi cards and MMC not supported)”
Definitely only two cards according to this. The dual talk is likely copied from the R1 and failed in editing.
True - but so far it doesn't look like a pre-order to me. If future tests and reviews show reasonable improvements in the image quality/DR (including that hot pixel issue), it may be a good buy in a few months once the dust settles and the price goes down a bit. E.g. Christmas discounts etc.Canon should just pack it in and sell everything off to Cosina.
I'm not sure - knowing your use cases outside of the sensor may be better DR (but the R5 was already good in that regard) and also the cooling you may still find useful. it could be a sum of a lot of small things that add up.
