Preorder: Canon EOS R5, Canon EOS R6 and new lenses

If you want a different perspective you have to move. If you don’t move it is the same perspective irrespective of framing or focal length. If you move the perspective is different even if you don’t change focal length or anything else.
that is what perspective is, your position in relation to the scene.

The one thing you can do by cropping is "simulate telephoto effects" because there's really no such thing as "telephoto effects", there is only the effect shooting distance has on perspective. If you shoot from the same distance, you'll get the same amount of compression with a 1200mm lens or a 12mm lens cropped to the same FoV as the 1200mm lens. Exactly the same compression, because compression is determined by the relative distances between the camera and the various objects in the scene.

And that is exactly my original point.
"And you could incorporate all the dynamic panning and zooming so when you complete an edit, you could make it appear as if you had multiple cameras recording a single performance. Obviously, you wouldn't get the telephoto effect of a telephoto lens, or the parallax effect from tilting/panning, but those would be lost on the untrained eye."
Some of you feel like you have this need to correct something, when there's nothing to correct.
This is also why I also said, I'm just gonna agree.
Today is a great day, I preordered my R5, I have nothing more to argue about.

1) Is the canon GPS receiver GP-E2 compatible with the R5?
2) Does the latest version of Lightroom Classic running on a PC correctly interpret the coordinates? Apparently it do not originally.

My mistake for saying "telephoto effect." But I do know that both examples look extremely different.

The ONLY difference is dof, and that his because in that example I was trying to illustrate the dof too. If you use a crop factor on the dof the images are identical.
Like this, 75mm or 150mm? It is the same thing from the same place. if you used a 75mm lens @ f2.8 from the same place and cropped it to the same framing it would be identical.

Avoiding the off-topic discussions!
We get 5 year local Canon warranty but the 100-500mm is too expensive. 10% more than the current RF70-200mm and the RF TC is 50% more expensive than its EF counterpart. I will cancel my pre-order for it. Disappointed as since I can't use TCs with my RF70-200mm (as I did for EF 70-200mm), I don't now have a reasonably priced option for longer reach... except to go back to EF100-400mm mk 2. Not a bad option especially if there are some good second hand copies handed down from people moving to the RF tele lenses.
Is there a website/document that specifies which CFexpress cards are qualified? Australian resellers are bundling a 64gb USH-I SD card (useless!?!) card but no RF-EF adaptor or CFexpress.

That would totally depend on the vendor. If you preordered from, say, Amazon, then you won't know. I'm still not convinced they ship in the order the pre-orders were received. B&H has told me in the past that I would be in the first batch of received goods for a pre-order. You can call them and ask.

I deliver in 4K. 8K will be great to shoot in for several reasons, first, reframing. I don't have to spend 15 minutes making sure the camera is perfectly centered on my set, I can roughly center by eyeball in a few seconds, then reframe a perfectly centered 4K shot in post without any resolution loss.
I can also punch in on a detail or for a close-up on the talent's face in post, or pan around the frame and still deliver in 4K without having to upscale.
Finally, when I scale down from 8K to 4K, it will increase sharpness and reduce noise in the final image due to sub-pixel sampling and you'll end up with a much cleaner picture than if you'd shot at 4K natively.
Will be curious to compare downsampling in editing software vs shooting in oversampled 4K mode from the camera, just as an experiment, I'll likely shoot mostly in 8K to retain the reframing abilities.

I was calling out what you said only because you put it right next to mentioning the changes you'd see via parallax when moving the camera position (true change in the images). Bouncing around in crops will be the same as throwing on a longer lens minus the difference in resolution and DOF (although DOF can be made equivalent as was demonstrated further back).
Anyway, sorry to have derailed this thread. It's just a myth that keeps getting perpetuated. I believed it for a long time and argued against it, but I finally understood once I tried some tests myself using my Leica Q's crop mode versus another full frame with interchangeable lenses. Zero difference between Q's 50mm crop (f/1.7) and another camera with 50mm @ f/1.8 shot from the same position. Only differences were those introduced by resolution, bokeh due to the lens designs, etc. But the framing and "compression" of the scene were identical. This is most often misunderstood on medium format forums where everyone thinks their sensor is super magic sauce – when in fact what they're seeing are things like superior sharpness, microcontrast, nice focus falloff, etc. due to superior medium format lenses. But the "compression" isn't better or any different.

1) Canon shows the GP-E2 as compatible with the EOS R5 under the "Supplies and Accessories" tab. https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/...dslr-and-mirrorless-cameras/mirrorless/eos-r5
2) I only use Canon DPP4, so I wouldn't know about Lightroom.
