@@adamhoskins8375 this was reported to Fuji in several countries: US, France, Singapore. But nothing has happened yet, even after the most recent firmware update. The Hasselblad HC lenses are actually made by Fujifilm. Works well with 50R, 50S, 50S II, 100, 100S. But not on 100 II. I haven’t tested on 100S II.

yeah sure...and it's AF is limited to only a percentage of the frame, it's slow AF aperture wise, and optically inferior to even the 200-800 zoom.

@@jasona59 can you do the work you are paid to do with this? Is the above an absolute headache because you didn’t have this? Before this did you not get anything focus , did you clients notice, do you make more money because of these enhancements ? Will you business model change because of this one camera ? These are the things I look at.

@@adamhoskins8375 I currently get my work done with both my main cameras. I already have a very high focus hit rate. The features I mentioned will make it easier to get the shots I want while improving the end product, and like I said the R5 Mark II has enhancements. Please note, that I personally have decided to hold off on upgrading to the R5 Mark II right away, because replacing my old computer first will have a greater impact on my workflow, especially when creating long format videos. I’d say the title of your video is a bit harsh, and that the questions in your reply are much more reasonable.

@@jrfstudio it has fallen a bit flat I think the hype killed it. It has been a weird month for canon

@@bomberbinz what would be good for the future would be smaller files then you wouldn’t need hard drives and fast card readers . This will then impact on transfer rates and so on. That would fix a lot of tech issues . If a redesigned jpeg or raw could be done then that’s a multitude of things sorted in one hit !

@@adamhoskins8375 That would be good for RAW but most press photographers won't shoot RAW they will shoot JPEG. Quicker to sort and file over to an editor. When I was doing events film premiers 12-13 years ago you had people who would be sending during (Front row with a laptop on a stand clamped to the barrier) or sending after.

@@bomberbinz yes press is a different work flow . You never know someone may come up with something eventually

@@UnconventionalReasoning I’d like to think that most consumers have a camera for 5-7 years . Minor iterations aside from certain cases it will suffice. Even most video content is still hd even though we have 4k and even 8k it has finite uses atm

@@adamhoskins8375 For a lot of consumers, it seems like it will be closer to 7-10 years. With the Canon 5D series, for example, a lot of people skipped alternate releases, so the were looking at options about 8 years apart. The release cycle for some mirrorless cameras was compressed in the previous decade or two, and that is now slowing down. Even Sony, which had so many similar releases in the mid-2010s has slowed down, now branching out to other product lines like the FX-3/30 and ZV-E1/E10. In a way, the exception proves the rule: Panasonic GH5 [3/17], GH6 [2/22], GH7 [7/24], where the GH7 was released to introduce PDAF, after Panasonic had stubbornly stuck with contrast-detection AF. Each new camera seems to offer one or two ground-breaking features. Many "camera buffs" seem to expect that their path is where the ground is breaking, but they might be on fairly stable ground.

@@parmanduke we are all entitled to opinions. Otherwise it would be very boring, I quite enjoy this I’m not doing it for subscribers I have free time to expand other genres.

in fact I only checked Wex and it still is £3600 but on some other sites its £2100 so yes that would be the better buy. Have you struggled with focussing then all this time until the r5 mk2? Very odd I think. Either way even it if did everything by thought I'd still be happy with the mk1. This is about cost versus business sense and value for money. Not buying because you can and have new camera syndrome. Like most it's not that impressive either way you look at it. Next you'll be going on about dynamic range ;)

@@adamhoskins8375 Sorry but were did I say anything about focusing ! Again I said nothing about dynamic range ! I never buy any camera gear or recommended it to others in a good or bad way before I have used the item(s) Unlike yourself in this vid !

@@paultrunfull3324 sometimes you don’t need to test if what you have works

@@adamhoskins8375 But you dont have the R5 II !

@@paultrunfull3324 yes I don’t need it , the upgrades are minimal and cost for someone who already has an r5

@@drgziut I can already cope with my r5 and gfx. Prior to these I had no issues with the xt2 and h1 . You don’t need obscene amounts of tech to do your job.

@drgziut I agree. I am an amateur who was shooting landscapes and got into the Nikon Z after years of using Nikon Apsc Dslrs. The Nikon imagequality was always outstanding. When I got my z6 ii my autofocus struggle began. Subjects moving towards you, faster than normal walking speed were a game of fortune. When my daughter started crawling and the lighting wasn't ideal I had to use single point af as eye tracking simply couldn't keep up. With my daughter now running around and playing with the dog I finally gave in and switched to the canon r6_2. Now I enjoy carrying my camera with my when my daughter is playing. The sensor although it isn't stacked is fast enough to use the electronic shutter most of the time, eye tracking is working as it was advertised. Overall the canon camera feels more like a coworker than just a tool. With the canon, I can take snapshots in situations full of action, and it feels like a companion.

@@johannes3154 I’ve always had canon and like The interface and ergonomics . Having Fuji later on was different but not to much of a jump. The Sony menu was more Difficult . Only used Nikon when the released the d800 which I loved . I was so use to using continuous single point it became my staple

@@adamhoskins8375 i even loved my d5500 feature where you were able to move the focus point via touch and drag. But the z6 ii, even in single point felt like focussing in Live view on a dslr. ;-)

@@markshirley01 thank you

@@brookscurran we are in an area which is sort of at the edge of what we can do and not much more can be gained in real terms of making our work better or easier.

​@@adamhoskins8375 Then shut the fuck up and keep your old camera, if you don't have constructive feedback then don't bother giving it at all. Saying we're on the edge of what we can do and then saying it's a fail makes you look stupid.

@@jdavidmusic it wouldn’t surprise me at all , canon are on the back end of releasing tech currently . Sony will have another iteration up soon . Canon are pressing the privilege cost of owning a camera with their badge on. I too feel there are so many better options. Nikon are doing very well and have made massive leaps

Actually for $4300 you could simply wait for the Z8 + 24-120 f/4 lens kit to be discounted again come November. The two benefits I could see with the R5 II over the Z8 is its smaller size, full pre-capture mode, and improved AF. The question I have is are those features worth spending an extra $800 for. Canon makes some great lenses, but where they fail compared to both Sony and Nikon is coming up with some decent mid-range telephoto lenses. Does Canon having anything in its lineup that competes with both the 600 f/6.3 and 800 f/6.3 PF Nikkor lenses? The 35, 50 and 85 f/1.8 prime lenses are fantastic and AFFORDABLE!!! To me Canon's biggest problem is justifying the prices it charges for its products. If I were a Canon shooter I would feel I am being ripped off.

@@michaellee3903 pricing for canon is just obscene

@@dylanstaples4130 exactly that.

Perhaps we could avoid thinking that the only role for the R5 mk2 is to be an upgrade for the R5 mk1? Photographers can be coming from a lot of other current use cases than just that. Perhaps someone got the original Canon R, and it suited them when the R5 was released less than two years later. But now, 5+ years later, they're ready for something new. Perhaps they're using the 5D mk3/4 and held off from the switch to mirrorless, and decide now is the time. The R5 mk2 technology should be sufficient for them for another 5-10 years.

@@UnconventionalReasoning I think if you are coming from the old 5d or R model then yes get it if in your budget. I was more thinking of people who were looking to upgrade or get a second body more so. I would buy another r5 if weddings were my main thing

@@adamhoskins8375 Sometimes we know why an upgrade helps our photography, especially operationally. Other times, we get the new tool and realize a way it allows us to do something we had avoided before. It does seem that you're locked into one product path, the person having an R5 already. It kind of fits the mindset of the typical commenter more than the video creator.

@@UnconventionalReasoning I do a mix of both but it does serve both purposes for me with out having to upgrade . Using the gfx for large work and r5 as the work horse .

@@taylormade190599 you don’t need to use such a tool when most cameras are very similar . Specs alone can tell you a lot. Most of it is just hot air you are not gaining anything. Most real world views are similar and canon have been late to the party with nothing special

@@adamhoskins8375you really need to improve your communication skills and actually think the entire video through before recording

This is exactly what it is to me. It's the camera I'll buy that will cover me for the next 10 years and be relatively competitive throughout.

@@matthewjames4268 couldn’t agree more as an upgrade from an 80d it makes sense completely

@@brandonthede7452 worth it in this context

better to go with a used R5 in about 3 months as idiots upgrade to the R5II. You'll get a great camera at a bargain price.

@@davepastern absolutely I’m all about a bargain

@@ajss3756 but nothing really anyone needed as such. Big specs don’t really make it better. Do you really need all this stuff to capture a picture ? Do you need that much help ?

Sony’s AF is better than Canon’s for video. For photo most of the brands do fine

@@adamhoskins8375 Then why even release a new camera - these workhorse cameras and new features make it easier for the working professionals to earn their living.

@@vinhsanity it’s splitting hairs these days but it’s been over hyped . Sony are way ahead I feel

The readout speed is not on par with the others. It is about double or half the Z8 which has been out for a fair while now. It had to be faster the Z8, what was the point of a new backside sensor if it still has rolling shutter? Makes me wonder if Canon just can't compete anymore in sensor tech. I was really hoping for a fully adjustable fps electronic shutter with no rolling shutter. I was also hoping they would get rid of the anti aliasing filter as well.
