This is just a Sunday reminder of the Canon EOS R5 specifications
- Thread starter Canon Rumors Guy
- Start date
I couldn’t take the wait any longer... my 5dmkiii and lenses got stolen back in April, and with my insurance money I bought the RF 50 1.2, RF 70-200m and RF 35 1.8, was going to wait until the R5 to come out to buy it but, I’ve been dying to use my lenses so I decided to buy an EOS RP to play with these lenses and to use as a compact back up for when the R5 will come out, whenever that is... I found myself going too crazy just waiting for any bit of news for the R5 and having these lenses but no body to use them on.

Nah. If they can still work in meat processing plants with plexiglass shields in place, it would be trivial to do it for bulk to retail repackaging operations.

yes I'm talking rawat this point that should be a given
There you go again. Wanting to buy a Rolls-Royce at a Toyota price, or a Rolex for a Timex price.
The Canon EOS 1D X Mark III is the first digital camera in history that has an unlimited raw buffer shooting at the camera's maximum frame rate. And suddenly we think it should be a given for every new digital camera on the market? I guess you'll next suggest that it should be a given that every sub-$500 APS-C and µ4/3 camera body heretofore introduced should be capable of 8K60 as well?
For most of us, the practical real world difference of being able to shoot bursts of raw images longer than, say, three seconds vs unlimited is trivial. In the real world where actual revenue is being generated by photographic activity, shooting at high frame rates for extended periods of time is still done almost exclusively to JPEG.
Even when it is not, there are plenty of other considerations that guide those who are doing it for a living (or even in sufficeintly large enough quantities as a hobbyist) to use the types of bodies that currently do offer extended buffer capacity. If someone is shooting sports or action more than just occasionally there are other factors that weigh heavier on the decision of what type of camera to use as well as in what file format to save them. Durability becomes a prime consideration. Thus build quality and shutter life rating are just as important as sustained burst rates.
Speed to market also becomes critical, thus dictates that most sports/action shooters go straight to JPEG so that they can push the image to their client/employer within scant seconds of shooting it when necessary. This has only recently begun to change as those sports/action photographers who do not need speed to market have only recently had the opportunity to shoot extended high speed bursts and also save raw files at the same time.

The RP has unlimited buffer shooting RAW with a proper UHS-II card
The info I've seen says 50 raw images at 5fps. Though for most use cases that's not much different from "unlimited", it does mean you can't keep shooting raw at 5 fps until your card is full or your battery is dead.

I just tried it on my RP: M, 1/200s, High Speed continous, MF lens, Anti-Flicker off. After 150 pictures I got bored and the buffer was still at 43 available out of 50.

That is a zero problem to overcome. They design an adapter, you insert the ssd/m2 nvme thingy, problem solved.

Good to know, even if Canon does not make that clear on the official spec sheet, which apparently only includes the 50 shot buffer when using a "standard" SD card, whatever that is.

That's incorrect. Wrong perspective.
It's good to post all known and rumored specs after a while in ONE article because they're spread on several different posts.
Some people who didn't follow ALL posts don't have time to check EVERY post to get a clear idea.
This post is very useful.
Comments on it are another story.

“Only in 8k RAW and 8k/4k DCI mode” and/or calling 16:9 video from a 3:2 sensor not a crop.
