Thank you. I trust that Canon does not bother users with too complicated hardware and software ergonomics. Wouldn't fit to their philosophy which I appreciate much. In fact, one of the reasons why I switched from Nikon to Canon when I went digital, many years ago, was that I felt quickly familiar with Canon's DSLRs when I tried them in a shop, Nikon's DSLRs not.Yeah, basically, on the R, you set up C3 in video mode with your typical video settings, and when you're in photo mode but want to take a quick video, you simply press the red button and you start recording using your C3 settings. Going into video mode entails pressing your mode dial button and then pressing the info button to change to video mode. There you can set specific video preferences and change your custom video modes, etc. It's really convenient.
That said, I never shoot video, so I remapped the red button to AF modes while in photo mode. If I do need to go into video mode, I don't mind going into video mode first.
It sounds way more complicated than it actually is. It's just a matter of learning the system and getting used to it.
Problem is so many car enthusiast prefer petrol/diesel powered cars now days that its actually hampering electrification. Which means people are deciding with their wallets. Manufacturers can make something in hopes that it will be accepted but at the end, i prefer not to pay for these "features". But then again in 10 years camera industry will be gone because of onslaught of mobile phones. Whos to say that in future camera manufacturers will not go back to its roots just to make more of distinction aka RETRO compared to said mobile phones?

There IS lots of distinction to mobile phones with the most prominent being the image sensor that is 35 times larger in area with all advantages w.r.t SNR etc!
Just making it bulkier for no reason is not meaningful. Form should follow function! And fact is that when mirrorboxes dont exist any more and flange distances are smaller -> smaller form factor is possible.
What makes you think it's not just an R? I couldn't really make out much detail.The video is about the 1DX III. But, last I checked, RF lenses do not mount to DSLRs.
Potential R5 in the wild? Check out 10:26...
I am not sure I could tell the difference between an R and R5 given what is shown....
Never mind the cameras - I want one of those swivel chairs with the trip/gimbal attachment contraption - where can we get those??The video is about the 1DX III. But, last I checked, RF lenses do not mount to DSLRs.

I am more wondering if someone on the forum can spot something definitive.What makes you think it's not just an R? I couldn't really make out much detail.
Haha. True. Those got my attention in addition to the 1Dx3s.Never mind the cameras - I want one of those swivel chairs with the trip/gimbal attachment contraption - where can we get those??![]()
Actually in studio shutter speed isn’t as important, at least not for portraiture. Where flash sync at any shutter speed is useful is outdoors or a daylight interior shot mixing ambient with flash. One example where a lot of photographers would use this is weddings and event photography. Editorial portraiture and location fashion are others.true, its an outstanding feature, but I think its a pretty specific need and not that important in like 95% of photographers daily work (unless you do highend studio/fashion shootings)
Yeah--they're pretty neat. Pangolin Photography Cruise boats on the Chobe river. I'm going to be on one in Sept for a few days after shooting the Carmine bee eaters in the Caprivi Strip. A fellow photographer went on one last year and gave them rave reviews.Never mind the cameras - I want one of those swivel chairs with the trip/gimbal attachment contraption - where can we get those??![]()
Thanks! Totally agree. Sorry, saw that at the end of the day and had to head out. 1 button vs two = RView attachment 189104
I played the game of 7 differences and found out that it is a R on the video considering the front edge and also the evf focus knob that is not on the left side but on the right side on the R5.
