You can now preorder the Canon EOS R5 C.
typical canon mentality of castrating, look at 90D which comes with Type-B micro connection while M6 mk2 announced alongside has Type-C connection.
I preordered from Adorama and I think it said shipping at the end of March.
I was hoping for IBIS. But I have trouble with it on the R5. Weird wobbles when shooting wider than, say, 35mm.
If you're vlogging on a wide-angle lens, IBIS can cause some issues. These are well documented on YouTube. There's still OIS in many lenses and digital stabilization in the R5C with a 1.1X crop. But if you're more photo focused, the R5 is probably a better way to go. You can still do amazing video with it at 1080p, 4K Standard or 4K downsampled crop without overheating, and you'll still be able to do 4KHQ or 8K in bursts or longer with an external recorder. Biggest limitations of the R5 are the 30 minute software-record-limit and the overheating on internal 4KHQ and 8K.
NO IBIS at all, fortunately most EF and RF lenses do come with Lens based IS.
I bet that's a heat constraint. If the sensor moves, it can't be bonded to a heat sink. IBIS isn't as useful for serious video work, and I'd think it'd be a choice between that and 8k.
Makes sense if the sensor is the main heat source. I have read (though I don’t know if it’s true) that the main heat issues arise from the media card(s).
Really? No IBIS at all, even with still photos? That (to me) is devastating! I don't know why Canon would do such a thing which I view as a "deal-breaker" for getting it vs. just getting the R5 or waiting for the next R5 version (with IBIS and whatever new stuff they add!). I'm just so shocked over that decision! I can understand if they can't get enough heat off the sensor with IBIS, but I'm just surprised that they couldn't configure it so that there was a really good air-flow around the IBIS unit which would keep it under control.
How was $4500 a shock to you? EVERY Youtuber, EVERYONE here all thought it woulf be around 4500/4600.
That has 100% been debunked. If you plug an R5 into a capture card or NINJA it still overheats even with the media card not in use. Even more you can take the CFexpress OUT and it still overheats with a capture card. If you have it set to turn the monitor and evf off however it doesn't overheat.
