Canon EOS R6 V Specs: Active Cooling and more…

I have unsubscribed from his channel long time ago because of the clickbait title frustration and time-wasting. But Google keeps recommending his stuff so I often end up watching anyway. šŸ˜…
Haha, same. When searching for rumors about Canon cameras rumors on YouTube, his channel often come out on the top 5 YouTube and sometimes the bait is to strong to not click :D

It feels like Canon is doing something Sony did a long time ago, which is something I've really wanted them to do and a big reason why I've been jealous of the Sony ecosystem. You get the FX3/ENG oriented cine camera body, the A7s3 photo-oriented body, and now you get the ZV-E1/creator oriented body. Same sensor, more or less the same specs give or take, but more choice for body style and price bracket. I travel and have adopted the C50 as my A cam and begrudgingly lug my C70 with me as B camera, but this would probably make a compelling travel companion to the C50 more so than the R63.

If this one (R6 V) has S&F mode on steroids meaning recording frame rates from 1/10, 1/9, 1/8 fps to ~ 50 fps in single steps PLUS 360° angle for all fps it might be my choice but I think this is utopia!

Generally maybe a good triple choice of cameras:
→ R6 iii: Photo optimized hybrid with good video specs / PPPPPPVVV (P photo, V video)
→ R6 V: Video optimized hybrid, excellend for gimbal, drone (compact, IBIS) / PPPPVVVVV
→ C50: Video system with good 2nd body photo capabilities for well defined productions (tripod, XLR audio etc) / PPVVVVVVV

So this is exactly as the C50 with ibis? Im not seeing the difference except for ibis
I think the R6 V is planned to be a good 2nd body to R6 cameras with similar user interface.
Another difference is "no handle" and "no XLR input"
Additional benefit: small, light for gimbal/drone use which might be a domain for hybrid shooters e.g. journalists.

A new remote? That tiny little detail in this rumor is what might actually interest me :) Does anybody use the Canon BR-E1 with the Canon R5? I“d love to hear about your experience. I“m getting tired of using "camera connect" as a remote and I am actively searching for BT option. It would be great if I can find one with a timer or a small display that shows the time in bulb mode. I am open for any suggestions :)
I actually have both, but I never used them together since that's not my style of photography.. I can check once I get back home :)

I have been begging and crying for a compact ff for years. Now it's here and I can't decide to be happy or sad.
It's the usual - it's too big, too heavy, too expensive.

- 5X(!) the _current_ price of the R50V, it's basically the price of the R6m3
- only 20% smaller than the R6m3 while the R50V is more than 40%(!) smaller than the R50 despite the R50 already being small
- only 100g lighter than the R6m3
- SONY's 33MP and 60MP ff compact is 40% smaller than the R6V!!!!! What is happening here?!?!

OK, maybe I'm looking at it wrong and this is absolutely a cinema camera since it's doing 7K raw and should be compared to C series only and by no means is this a ff compact for photography, any such capability is just a sideeffect...as in C series.
In that case, I need to wait for R8V maybe?


S9 showed me the promise of small ff than's not a leica or so (also the sigma bf). It's WONDERFUL. I'm not sure why the r8 design is so uninspired/goofy considering how sexy the m62 was, and it has no ibis either.

Speaking about Ordinary Filmaker, unfortunately i cannnot bring myself to like that channel due to the constant clickbait title and putting his face front and center on all the thumbnails of his videos and aso making multiple videos on a single rumors.

Not hating about him as a person tho, just not a fan of his channel.
In Simon's defense, I believe it's common knowledge that people tend to click on thumbnails showing the person's mug. As for his messaging, that's the business model.

I’m still using my MR-14EX Macro Ring Lite on my EF 100mm L Macro lens. I previously used it on the EF 100mm non-L Macro, which it was originally designed for. The Ring Lite ā€˜clips’ onto the lens’ filter threads. The EF non-L macro takes a 58mm filter, while the EF L macro takes 67mm filters. So, a Canon 67 Macrolite Adapter (58-67mm) is required. I’ve noticed no vignetting from this.

Perhaps the new Ring Lite accommodates new filter sizes for RF lenses; or, maybe more adapter rings?

Not sure I understand the big to do over shutter angle. The math is about as simple as it gets. If you want to subsequently increase the frame rate with an interpolator, then a faster shutter will give better results because each frame will be sharper and for that calculation, shutter speed is a better choice than angle.

I have been told that Canon will announce new adapter rings to benefit macro lighting. I am not versed in macro speedlites and shooting. What I have been told is that they're ā€œoverpricedā€, which is par for the course with Canon more often than not. Maybe there will be some feature that makes it ā€œworth itā€ to some shooters.
...or, maybe more adapter rings?
There are currently Macrolite adapters in 52mm, 58mm, 67mm and 72mm. That covers all current RF lenses with a macro designation (including the 24mm and 35mm that aren't full macro). Maybe there’s a lens coming that needs a 77mm adapter ring? The RF 24-105/4 takes a 77mm filter, if the 20-50/4 PZ is the same size and is a 1:2 macro lens, maybe they launch a Macrolite 77C adapter ring to use the macro flashes on it? 77mm would be big step-down down to 58mm, I'd worry about vignetting.
