Dear Canon, please allow us to shut off your in body denoising.. I don’t want you touching my photos.

"I will say this, if the specifications and features are accurate, then this is quite the shot across Sony and Nikon's bows..."

In Canon's official strategy document they write in bold text "Achieve overwhelming No. 1 share in mirrorless camera market with full lineup of EOSR system". They aspire to make popular products that increase their mirrorless market share.

Shoot RAW then.

The NR is applied to the RAW files. There is no way to get around it as far as I know.

Since when? The 'neural network noise reduction' is applied during RAW processing (to jpg or heic), not to the RAW image itself. Not saying that there isn't NR baked into the RAW file, but that's not what's being discussed here. Rather, this feature is bringing what was formerly available via Canon's defunct cloud RAW image processing (paid service) into the camera itself.

Now the question is: New RF glass and Canon R6MKIII (and rent the CanonR5MKII when I need more pixels) - or buy the R5MKII......

 

[Traveler]

Still not top LCD?

 

[Jayk0607]

So then is it pretty much 24mp R5II?

I don’t think the poster you were replying to was referring to the in camera processing option. In any case, there is signal processing at the raw level on basically all digic X cameras based on the captured energy spectra. Some (bill claff probably most notable) have deemed this to be NR. Some analyses suggest that it is something else, though unclear what exactly.

R5ii notably appears to have less signal processing done to the raws than other recent Canon cameras. Similar to Sony’s A7R5 and A1 (but aren’t labeled as having NR on the photonstopixels site)

There is suspected to be low pass filtering but that could be necessary for other reasons than simply NR.

also, under most cases you'd never be able to detect a difference anyways.

Guess you need to analyze which is more critical for you..... do a chart and compare....

 

[neuroanatomist]

In-camera processing is specifically mentioned in the CR post, so I would think people were discussing that and not other processing the camera may or may not be doing to the RAW files.


Should be obvious, but anything like that which is listed as a feature will be able to be turned off in settings.

For the R5II and R1, you can only run the AI denoise on JPEGs, not on RAW files. Canon marketing people said that’s because running it on RAWs ‘would take too long’.

Like the blur detector and other features: JPEG only.

Will the R5ii's bad DR trickle down to the R6iii as well?

This camera hardly cries out BUY ME. No real innovation, just a few add ons to attach to the parts recycle bin. And you'll be able to steal this camera and sell it as well, since no security features. And because of insta's crap crop ratios, it would be nice of canon to maybe extend its range of ratios to match social media platforms and maybe even add ratios to raw files as well if thats possible. Think ahead Canon, c'mon. Every criticism thats's been levelled on the R5ii like wobbling etc, fix ALL of that, maybe throw in global shutter at an affordable price and beat sony. Improve the noise performance at iso6400 and higher. Make sure no reviewer can find any negatives about the camera.

If this rumor is completely true, then the sensor is the same as the R3's sensor, so the DR performance should be very similar to the R3, which is basically indistinguishable from the R6 Mark II.

Trolls do find that to be 'horrible DR' though. Compared to what, I'm not sure. Probably to the a9III.

Feel better now?

If it's a stacked sensor at R6 prices I'm buying it day one.

RAW video internally is a massive win. Doesn't seem like there is a full frame 60fps raw option though which is a bit disappointing, but still 6K30fps is great.
