Celsea has 10K gear in the bag, has no money left for spare batteries.
pretty sure she can just bring a power bank and charge it on the go using cable data...
But where would the drama be in that?
Since Tony's a geek, consider the size of virions (viral particles) and then consider the efficacy of wearing a cheap face masks to prevent inhalation. Wearing a mask outdoors (as Chelsea was doing) is especially ineffective. Most surgeons use N95 Respirators though these must be carefully installed and are one-time use applications. Wearing a cotton, paper, or nylon mask might give you a false sense of security, but understand it does not protect you from the virus....
Yup she has on shit load of money piled up there! But she looks so good just holding it..
@@navis5284 it is not to protect you from virus, mask is to prevent your droplet from spreading and infecting other people... if other use mask then we are safe and if we use mask then other will be safe... when everyone use mask then we can contain infection in to small scale and not becoming super spreader... tony is a geek and even he and chelsea use mask, so you should use mask too...
Wait I thought we already switched to the R5? Tony better be glad he’s not a camera body 😂
Hmmm. She did say "My room." :].
@@vhc7764 no joke, I think Tony plays for the home team
Chelsea, as a fellow R5 owner, I had a problem with the battery life as well. I would turn the camera off overnight and still find it considerably drained the next day. I turned off the GPS and the Wifi, and that cured the problem for me. Now I turn those on when I shoot and off when I am not shooting. I hope this helps.
Maybe it should be an option to have a battery saving mode, which turns off stuff like that when the camera is off.
Isn't there an option to no not keep the BT connection to the phone when the camera is off/standby? The R has it and the the 5D IV had a similar setting for the built-in GPS receiver.
don't they have airplane mode? my sony sure have airplane mode, it turn off all the wireless things...
The R5 has built in GPS for Geo Tagging? Awesome.
@@TherconJair I did some research (I actually read the manual) and the method for turning OFF those features while the camera is sleeping or off is to TURN ON Airplane Mode. Thanks for your reply!
So I made the change from Sony to Canon, after having the A7Rii, A7Riii and A7Riv
I’ve been out with the R5 a few times
If I don’t use video, 1 battery lasts a full day with about 1000 shots
But if you turn on wifi the battery drains EVEN when the camera is turned off. But I've taken 500 photos in 2 hrs and had plenty of battery left.
I took 900+ shots over 3 hours last night and still had 16% left.
the way she dumpt it in the boot still on the tripod I bet it wasnt off
So it seems (absent video) 1 battery will take between 1000-1200 actuations/photos
Not at the Sony level , but seems quite acceptable.
what made you switch from sony? I'm also considering it
These reviewers are switching cameras every year. Today the Canon R5 IS amazing, last time oh my God the Sony was amazing, before that nikon is amazing. Tomorrow oh my God nikon is amazing.
you may not require to be too serious with youtubers, there are always some commercial strategies in behind...
That's their job. You can't review something you haven't tried. They try and compare so we can get an idea of what we might like.
Except Nikon won't be amazing, so...
R5 is the king of cameras now. That’s why it’s out of stock everywhere. So many used Sony’s everywhere.
They are all amazing these days.
I don’t know what is happening with all the sensor dust with your R4. I shoot a lot of seascapes/wave movement & constantly change lenses on location & in over a year of shooting, I’ve only had to clean the sensor once. I don’t find it an issue.
As for battery life: Did you leave wifi on, or 120 EVF refresh rate in the view finder when not needed?
There are lots of settings which will reduce battery drain. Turn off WiFi and anti-flicker , turn on power saving and eco mode. Turn off viewfinder review and set disp. Performance to smooth may help lagginess. As you say many people praise battery life on R5 and R6 but the way I shoot eats up batteries so I carry several spares. I noticed how slickly you changed lenses. Either turn off IS before power off or wait a few seconds after power off before changing lenses or the IS in your lens may be damaged.
Chelsea, Please tell me what arca plate do you use for EOS R5? Is this a gitzo plate for sony? I'm looking for a good fit. Unfortunately, Canon does not have a socket in the middle. It is shifted forward and many plates, including my Gitzo arca and the old ones, go beyond the outline of the camera
The R5 is better, but man oh man is an A7RIII with Tamron and Sigma glass WAY more affordable.
Yes. And proven. And lots of videos on how to set them up and use them. And a mature resale market.
That's why I don't switch even if the R5 is really appealing to me with the much better Ibis, ergo, articulated screen, animal AF, better weather sealing and dust protection. Except for the battery life, it's probably the best still camera right now. But sooo expensive.
Sony owns 18% of Tamron and sits on the board.
Get a Nikon d3500 and Sigma f2.8 glass. Wayyyy more affordable...
@@vaibhavpisal and wayyyy different level (just to remind you sir).
Thanks for the quality revie.
I have a question for Canon full frame mirrorless cameras. The adapter for EF lenses physically represents the same ring as for macro photography, which should zoom in on the image, i.e. change focal length. Plus, the EF's flange(the segment between the matrix and the objective lens) is longer by definition than the RF's. What will we eventually see on the matrix? In my opinion, the image on the matrix should be enlarged due to the camera-adapter-EF lens system. The question is how much to change?
Thank you.
Chelsea, love the video’s, thanks for putting these out. I always learn something!
Hi Chelse What would you recommend between Canon R5 and Sony a7iv ... or even Sony a7RV? Thank you.
Oh look! Chelsea is switching again. It HAS been all of five minutes, after all. 😂
Hypergamy aka Monkey Branching. Watch out Tony!
Hi Tony. I just Got a Canon R5 and yesterday I filmed for my TV production for the first time and I decided to use 4K-D ALL-I 60P, the files looks fine on the camera if I play there but when I got home and tried to download the files they are ZERO bites on the computer. I use a different computer with the same result. I found online another guy with the same problem and he solved the problem by using the Conn EOS utility software. In this way he was able to download the files. All the 4K-60P -IPB I can download without EOS utility, just by copy past or drag and drop, but this is not working with 4k-D all-I 60 p. All the 4K-60P -IPB and HD files I can import in my Vegas pro 17 but the 4K-D ALL-I 60P that I download using the EOS Utility I can't import in my editing software.
Can you please test with your R5 if this is an issue? Thank you so so much!
Have not been able to post process my EOS R5 Raw. Don't shoot video. How do I use Lightroom or Photoshop? Help.
Great video! Quick question, what is the neck strap you are using on the R5?
Main reason I sold the A7III and got the R6 was sensor dust. It was beyond annoying. I barely ever switched lenses and still got dust. Sony needs to fix that huge issue.
Have had the Canon R6 for almost 2 months and love it. Will get the R5 when it comes in stock.
I don't see how they can. Even if the shutter comes down when you change a lens, there will still be dust rest on the shutter which would likely be redistributed when you're using the camera.. I shoot with the R3 and it's really only an issue stopping down alot. Was surprised it showed up in their shot in the video at f5.6.
@@sic04250f Canon has better sealing. I barely ever took my lens off my Sony’s and always picked up dust. No idea where it came from.
Ryan B Sony‘s mount sealing really has some issues. It even accumulates dust when you don‘t switch lenses. I believe part of the problem is dust that accumulates underneath the support surface of the mount. Blowing out those areas that are covered by the mount with a blower improves the dust issue a lot. But I also think that the mount is just not sealed to the same degree as Nikon’s and Canon‘s.
@@ryanb8736 I'd agree with you there, Sony still have plenty of room for improvement.
Hi Chelsea, may I know the model of your Gitzo tripod?
Are you adjusting all the settings manually between shots or are you shooting on auto?
Love your videos. What is your settings on fcp to get those perfect videos?
Scott
high-quality stuff as always. Keep on with your fantastic reviews
im thhe same chelsea im considering swapping from nikon z7 any recommendation looking at the sony range as well as the canon r6 and 600 or 800mm lens or fuji x-s10 with 100-400 with 1.4x converter or the 70-300 with 1.4x converter equivalent 35mm is 650mm or with the 2x converter 35mm is 920mm any helps greatful
Just wondering if you exchange your lens with the sensor facing down and the lens front element side down to the ground? I usually have the 2nd lens and camera next to each other with the back lens cover screwed off but just sitting on top, and the lens on the camera half mounted, then I can take both off and swap them quickly with swift movement. With the occasional aid of a blower, I almost never get sensor dust that way, even on holiday out and about. However, I also probably don't change lenses anywhere near the amount of times you do.
Enjoyed the presentation and setting info! Thank you.
My D810 battery will last all week and I only need to clean the sensor about every two years 😂
Ha Ha...My D500 will give me 1200 shots easily and like you I never need to clean my sensor..Long live the DSLR!!!
I shot a wedding two weeks ago and got 1320 pics on one battery on the R6. I still had a quarter left. My R5 had over 900 with a grip and never passed the halfway mark on the battery..
@@pianofinger you must have some good batteries
@@bassangler73 I only shot stills and just noticed Chelsea shot video as well. I was surprised so much that I posted pics of the back screen on Facebook
pianofinger The D810 could shoot a dozen weddings and still have three bars left 😂🤣😂
One thing that doesn't get mentioned very often is that the Sony A7RIV has 26MP in APS-C mode which gives you a 1.5 crop. So if you have a Sony 70-200 with a 2x Teleconverter (as see in the video) you can cover 140mm to 400mm in FF and 210mm to 600mm in APS-C. The R5 has only 17.3MP in APS-C mode.
you can also use R5 in APS-C mode with 600mm lens which gives you 960mm...
It's the same as cropping in post. I use apsc mode on my RIII with the 100-400 GM. This paired with the 24-105 is a great combo, chuck in the 20mm f1.8 for astro and I'm done.
Why would you shoot in APSC mode ? Just crop in post. Storage is dirt cheap these days.
@@nordic5490 depends what you're shooting. I find it very useful shooting birds with my 100-400. Don't use it for anything else though.
@@jaegerschtulmann the canons have the crop mode also, in what way is the a7r4 superior???
Which camera are you using to vlog this? Looks crisp!
I need advice! What camera is go for zoom from long distance?!
Nice video Chelsea but can tell me how many shots did you get on r5 before battery died thanks Aussie
What is the model number of the gitzo tripod Chelsea is using in the beginning of the video?
Yeh second that??
Good vid!
And about batterys Im having m50 and yeah now waiting for my r5 Im ordered 4 extra batterys 😁
Cant you two try out the rf 85mm 1,2 L USM DS lens? So i have something look at while waiting... Cheers from Sweden
Don’t know what it is about Sony and sensor dust. My EOS RP’s shutter stays open when the camera is off and yet I haven’t had any dust problems yet. Do the Sonys have auto sensor cleaning? Is it just not very good?
Chelsea, can I ask you witch Camera Backpack from Manfrotto you have ? Is nice no to big, no to small, thank you.
You guys are often complaining about dust on your sensors, and I noticed that when Chelsea went to do a lens change (@ 15:10), you had the camera body facing the sky, and if this is how you normally do it, that is why you get dust. You should always keep the body facing down when changing a lens.
especially where there's waters, sands, winds, etc...
using a7 r4 for 6 months now. changing lens about every two days, always very accurate, always doing proper cleaning. still never needed to clean sensor. and when i bought camera i thought it will be major problem... they said even if you not changing lenses dust can get on sensor... so i dont get it ......?
Does anyone have problems with lighroom. When I export the R5 files in jpg, lightroom introduce bending on the image.
Need help
Do you mean banding? Or the actual picture bends? If you meant banding, then you are probably shooting with the electronic shutter instead of mechanic. Shooting with the mechanic shutter and not silent mode should fix that. If you meant bending then check lens correction settings
thanks so much Can i recomend olypus camera to you i think it is the best for this job
Its good to see you guys out and about, something i am definitely miss8ng!
Curious, dose Canon have super 35 mode like Sony? as I don’t know anything about other camera brands I have always wondered that? With the R Sony cameras I rely on super 35 mode to get that extra 1.5x punch with decent megapixels left. My go to is my 135mm gm in crop mode 202mm just beautiful. Main reason I got the riv for 26megapixel crop mode photos. Very nice while traveling. Less lenses to carry when you can double your lenses potentials. ; )
How do your convertors perform on that Dust Sucker 70-200
I truly enjoy learning from you Mrs. Chelsea and Tony. Keep up the great teamwork 🙏🏾🇸🇱
Chelsea, helpful information! I await your wildlife review with the Canon R5.
Tony, did the new firmware for Sony allowing you to close the shutter when you turn off the camera help at all for dust control?
I think that was only for a9ii camera. I have a7riv and I haven't seen any firmware updates which would give this option. Wish it would have it tho.
Thanks for sharing this information. While I love the RF glass that my Wife has for the R we purchased last year, we are heavily invested in EF-R glass we have been using on our 5D Mkiii. Will you all be doing any reviews of the adapters Canon put out that will allow EF mounts to be used on an R5?
Question about the 600mm vs. the 800mm which one would you recommend? Is the 800mm too much reach?
Longtime subscriber, thanks for the content, but the motiony parts of these high fps videos freeze up my TV, after making me dizzy. Is that a common complaint? T-n-C is the only channel that does this to my TV. Why do you hate my TV?
What do you do with all the photos?
Beautiful, thank you!!!
Out of curiosity, why buy a 600mm f/11 when you can get a Sigma 150-600 f/5-6.3 + EF-EOS R Adapter for about the same price? More zoom range and more light goes in right?
What kind of drone do they use?
Great vid! I would recommend getting a battery grip for the R5 since you shoot portrait mode often and need longer battery life!
Hi @Tony & Chelsea Northrup. Another great informative video. Thank you! I do have a question or two. Chelsea, is the lag on the EVF bad even at 120FPS for wildlife autofocus? I know it might be more problematic on the 600mm due to the centre only AF zone, I guess? Is it better on the f/2.8 trinity lenses?
Nah, lag is lag, it's always going to be there with an EVF. We did have it on electronic shutter and 120 FPS. It's not unusable, you can get good shots, but it's definitely noticeable when shooting action with a long telephoto.
@@TonyAndChelsea Thanks for the feedback
I've shot quite a few birds in flight and not noticed any lag. Also some well known bird photographers Will Goodlet and Jan Wegener have both reviewed the R5 and reported they didn't notice any lag.
@@PatrickGarrettPhotos I use the R6 and I concur there is no lag, she hasn't set up the camera properly by the sounds of it?
Trolls commenting about "I thought Chelsea already switched" clearly didn't even watch 5 minutes into the video... Keep doing you Chelsea
5:09 to be exact and I thoroughly agree with what she said there.
You expect them to actually watch the video before commenting? What a concept. 🙂
I must say sensor dust is not an issue in Europe. I only uave to use a cleaning blower twice during the last 2 years. On the flip side the f11 lenses are pretty useless here. I barely manages low ISO images with my Sony 600 F6.3. Sunny days are few and far between here in the UK... The size of that Canon 70-200mm is darn good. I am definetly jealous of Canon users having that option
@Code Bunny thanks for the advice and the reply. I must say the Sony a7iii and the 200-600 f4-6.3 are very capable. I got nice kingfisher diving shots with it. I was just trying to say that f11 lens in the UK would be useless for fast flying birds. I would love to try the Nikon Z6 or the Canon R6 but as a hobbyiest i cant justify the rental cost or frequent changing of the system. The combo you are using though sounds impressive. Please leave your instagram below if you have one for me to have a look at your photos :)
I 100% agree because I used to work with a 150-600mm on my Sony a7iii and due to the lack of light (French forest are dense 🌳) so it only use my 70-200 GM plus Tc 1.4 (hide) I improved my work thx to the big aperture and the glass quality. I’m just waiting for the 300mmf2.8 GM a sweet spot for me😉
will you compare 5D Mkiv vs R5
Is it Canon dust protection really effective that much?
When you are changing lenses, dust will enter in chamber between the lens and sensor and will stay there even after lens is put back. From that moment on dust inside have a chance to hit the sensor anytime. Unless shutter has brush for sweeping sensor every time it trigerrs.
Can you post a link to the backpacks please?
How do you charge in the car?
Really curious... I've been looking for that typical Tony Northrup camera walk through for the R5, has Tony stopped doing these? The walk through on the 80D was what got me started following your channel and bought your guide to photography book.... hope he'll do one for the R5
Thank you Tony, for going into depth about the sensor cleaning (on the sony's), for once. I've never fully understood the problem, and it has never been completely explained, until now. Thank you Tony!
Canon R5... Sony A7r4... yeah yeah yeah.
But that BMW tho! Can you guys adopt me? 😋
As a German the camera gear is much more impressive :D
@@PyroNikPyro I'd rather have the cameras too.
lol Its just 8er gran coupe
The BMW will hold it's value better.
@@Be-Es---___ hellll noooo
Is there any way when doing these reviews, you could see how this camera performs with the legacy glass. Thank you. Enjoyed the review.
I noticed on my R5 that stuck pixels (or are they hot pixels?) appear whenever the shutter speed is set to below 1/10 sec with a black image (lens cap on), and get more evident the slower the shutter speed - most noticeable at 30 sec shutter. Any shutter speed above 1/10 sec and faster, they completely disappear. This leads me to believe perhaps they're hot pixels, not stuck pixels? Interestingly, they appear on the EVF and LCD even before taking a picture. Does anyone have this as well?
U need to set up that "drag and point" on your R5 Chelsea. U can drag with your right thumb on the screen while u are looking thru the viewfinder. Ive had my R5 a week now, love it
And you can setup the af-on or a couple others to quickly toggle servo/one shot focus and another to quickly choose face tracking or single point focus for you landscape work.
Pretty sure she knows all of this. But touch and drag is very different than simply tapping where you want to focus.
@@longliveclassicmusic worked great for me. I set it up for the right side of the screen
@@joeblow9931 I have an EOS R and have been using touch to drag for a year. I love it too. But it's different from tap to focus…
@@longliveclassicmusic isn't it toych and drag focus?
Can't you tether the R5 with a power bank and keep shooting? I'm about to buy a USB dummy battery for my main cam. I reviewed the LP-E10 dummy battery recently and so far, no problems with 'unlimited power'. These problems still do happen though with all the technology available.
What travel bag do you use Chelsea?????
Roaming around my childhood stomping grounds. Thanks for the fall tour! Im waiting to pull the trigger on the R5. I bought 3 new lenses at the beginning of the year on the "old" system and the lenses are just hard to let go of. I know there is a converter but eh..........Once again, thanks for the ride!
iso 50, i I have an r5 how do you get it down to 50
I shoot with an A7R-III and carry that camera backpacking all over the Desert Southwest, we are known for our dust. I blow off my sensor maybe once a month if that. I rarely get sensor dust. I'll use the 16-35 GM, 24-70 GM or my favorite, the 24-105 G, never a problem.
Can you please make a video for canon 5dsr vs r5
I have the Sony a7iii and it's a great camera, but you're totally right about sensor dust!
Thanks for another great movie. Is there a chance for that Tony can make a video about cleaning the sensor?
Already recorded! But search our channel for an older video.
Great video; I am very interested in the R5 for wildlife; thank you
I bought an A7R IV last month, I took it out several times, and didn't get sensor dust, I used the air blower thingy every time before I went out, but I always checked the sensor and never saw dust particle on it, could it be because I bought it recently and newer copies handle sensor dust better?
It‘s because your camera is still kinda new. With sony cameras (also most other MILCs but to a lesser degree) dust accumulates underneath the support surface of the mount (the part that hangs over the sensor) over time. Cleaning those areas regularly with a blow helps to reduce dust issues a lot in the long run
@@romanpul I don't mind the complaining because making the a7R IV close the shutter when not in use is such an easy thing to implicate, like the in the a9, I have absolutely no idea why sony chooses not to do that
Yaman Tarakji Yeah, but this closing of the shutter doesn’t actually help that much. Dust will still accumulate inside of your mount and fly around it while you are using it. And also the air that comes into your mount when you remove your lens has dust in it. So the closed shutter is only preventing dust from immediately settling on your sensor. Regular cleaning of the entire mount with an air blower is probably the most effective way to prevent sensor dust. From my experience most sensor dust does not fly straight onto your sensor when you have your lens but is dust that already is inside of your mount
interesting on the sensor dust..i have Eos RP, without sensor cover and still has no dust. been shooting over 15k photos
i have had my canon M50 for 8 months, it doesn't have the shutter cover the sensor and i haven't had any dust on mine at all, if you getting that much dust on your sensor you need to change the way you changing your lenses, esp if you laying the camera on its back when changing them as you did in this video.
Why did you use the ND filter in the first shot? No clouds, the water seemed flat, just couldn't figure out why you used it.
I grew up in Fairfield so this brought back a lot of memories. I have an R5. I love it. I have a number of RF lenses including the RF 100-500 and an extender. The 100 to 500 is a real joy.
Having my own channel for a year now, I don't have time to watch yours nearly as often. I see your videos different now, understand the effort and thought behind each one. I also appreciate the shutter protection. I switch out the 50mm and 24-105 a lot, sometimes outside and have yet to end up with a dirty sensor after three months. I wonder if Sony can't offer sensor protection in a firmware update. A small issue, but with such a big impact.
Out of curiosity, why is the camera held up towards the sky, when changing lens? This helps "funnel" dust onto the sensor by gravity. It specifically says not to do this in the owner's manual. This explains why you are having so much dust on your Sony's.
Exactly.
With all due respect I know this is irrelevant but I just love your videos and how they look! I want to know what lens you use shooting car review ?? Thanks
I really love the comparison of focal length part
Please compare the rf 800mm f11 vs the rf 100-500mm on the R5 body:-)
You change camera systems more than I change my socks.
I loved this video, thanks for the review ☺️ I did the switch from Sony equipment to Canon r5 and couple of lenses just few days ago and I'm waiting for the delivery 😍
If Tony was shooting with the A7R IV to compare with the R5 why was the A7S III used for the video comparison (08:33)? I can't say definitively what the relative battery lives are BUT one of the commonest pieces of advice I've come across with mirrorless cameras is to carry 1 or 2 spare batteries! I had 2 Canon and 2 third party batteries for my 80D which I now carry with my EOS R. With heavy use I tend to go through just over 1 battery per day. I'd certainly rather carry an extra battery or 2 than forever be cleaning the camera sensor or having to remove dust spots in post processing all the time. Interesting to see that 600mm f/11 being so useful for landscapes.
This really sells the options available in the Tri-State Area... and the Aperture logo gear really came out amazing. Waiting for the Pantone 192 (crimson) or Pantone 321 (teal) version. This is me manifesting all the positive vibes in the hopes the gear launch is successful enough for that to be a thing!
Haven't done any research but I have been wondering where does the dust go from the Canon's shutter it lands on instead of the sensor 🤔. I think that the shutter pulls at least some of it inside its mechanism and that doesn't sound good either.
It's mostly not a problem because the shutter closes when you turn off the camera. So there will be less dust getting that far in the first place.
In addition to the image stabilisation making the handheld 1 second shots possible, I imagine having an EVF where you can continue to see the scene while holding the shot still helps?
Canon would benefit significantly from third-party manufacturers, like Sigma and Tamron, producing lenses for their RF system.
Coming soon
I’m sure they’ll let them eventually, they just want to push some RF sales to $$ customers while they’re mostly selling high end bodies.
Yeah, the third-party lenses are mostly what is keeping me with Sony over Nikon or Canon. Sony is brutal for left-eyed shooters, but...can't argue with the glass.
Sony has an 18% share of Tamron. I will leave the speculation up to others
@@ZjZade;;;
You guys never miss a beat to sneak in an commercial endorsement 😃😃😃
I have been checking several video reviews, including a couple from your channel, and finally I'm convinced, I'm changing my Sony for the Canon R5. Thanks Chelsea!!!!!
Does anyone know where I can buy drones second hand
KEH sells drones... sdp.io/buy
Great video Chelsea. I am doing the same - switching to Canon from Sony. Just sick of them not making flip screens that are fully functional touch screens. Did you guys move from Maryland to Connecticut?
So why did you buy it in the first place?
@@renestaempfli1071 I have enjoyed the Sony’s since the A7RII, and beyond. But I am getting really sick of their menus and touchscreens, and so, I will hold all my gear (lenses and mics, etc.) and wait to see what if anything they ever do to bring their cameras on par with even our iPhones. The screens don’t flip out and their touch function is crap. Bye.
We never lived in MD
@@TonyAndChelsea I am so sorry, my mistake. I will tell you, the fact that I am switching has a lot to do with Chelsea’s video’s and others. I think it may be just a user interface improvement (and stabilization improvements too), but I am so looking forward to getting that baby in my hands! 😍
@@TonyAndChelsea thank you. Not sure why I thought that. So CT. A gorgeous state.Looking forward to the next R5 video, thank you!
All these "switching systems" videos are just so tedious to be honest, guys. It's not the camera holding you back, and you know that.
You say you do it because you have to review the systems but you present it as a full switch and I think that perpetuates the GAS issues many photographers have. Thinking they have to upgrade their cameras all the time... when travelling and lenses would benefit them way more. Because hey, if you guys do it, it must be the best way, right?
Yep I find it strange when people switch continually, If I buy a camera I expect to use it until it breaks or gets to the point where it is so old that I'm missing major features. It's not what you've got, it's how you use it.
I switched from Sony to Canon too. It was actually a great move. I was nervous at first, but glad I did. Canon finally can compete with Sony. R5/6 are amazing cameras.
the a7r3 is an older camera. it's not like she switched from an a7r4 or fuji xt4. wtf you talking about
Gosh, I wish I could afford to drop $15k or more on a new system while I have another $15k system in my kitchen!
Gotta love tool envy... Professional tools are expensive. And her job is to review gear. Some high end; some not so high end. Not sure where your disconnect is?
Then do the work
Fifteen grand is not a lot of money for a self employed person to spend on a complete set of professional gear. This isn't about toys for a hobby, it's working tools. How much does a restaurant owner spend on kitchen equipment?
Thanks Chelsea as this was a great review and brought out some great information for me. As I'm debating staying with DSLR or going mirrorless. As I was planning since just retiring to really getting into photography as it always been a dream of doing wildlife and landscape or if lucky enough portraits and other areas which though I probably want get to in my time. But have been looking at the 90D and the 70-200 as that is my dream lens that I've always wanted. Though I have a about 4 other lens that are DSLR already and wanted to keep because of all the cost involved to move to a newer camera and get the lens of my dreams. But now with mirrorless I question to stay with DSLR or go ahead and move to mirrorless though that expense is going to be a way bigger move than I planned and wonder if worth it.
Though seeing a lot of great reviews that maybe the better choice in the long run and maybe hope to get enough on selling my other lens I wanted to keep and get a few of the newer mirrorless lens along the way. Of course now 90D seems to all be in backorders status and makes me wonder if they'll be back once this pandemic stuff get controlled that maybe they'll be manufactured to restock them or maybe not and mirrorless may be our only choice now. So waiting and watching to see what happens and which way I will go when things kinda of get back to a norm hopefully in the coming year.
Also looking forward to you testing R5 on wildlife as I've been reading and watching your videos on shooting wildlife as big fan and though no where near where I need to be after watching Tony and you in the previous video on learning I'm going to work on coming up with a learning plan on basics and then moving along making sure I get the basics that when I do start shooting more and more I get those great shots as I should. Though I do have that habit of watching a video and getting it over fast that I can do it as you pointed out. But in the end you both agreed learning on TH-cam is not really the best way but does prove useful in its own ways.
Be safe and can't wait till you shoot wildlife with R5 and hope you use the 70-200 as well as 600 though haven't check prices on it yet but bet it will be on the pricy side as well. Just may have to hope and pray maybe I can save up enough if I go the pricy way with mirrorless and hold off long in my plans and dreams of shooting photography and in the right way as well. 👼🌹🤗❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
I did wonder why they went with a 5 as essentially the flagship of their mirrorless lineup. Are they going to drop an R1? If not, are they doubling down on the "less bulky" thing, and thats why they dont give it the larger grip profile with greater battery of, say, the 1D? I feel like it would do much better with that massive extra bit, including cooling and battery. And maybe people won't like the size, but I'm the type to buy the battery grip anyway, so why not just integrate it?
I love to have miroles body but i think im going to bye d850 someday. I love wildlife photografy and i just cant handle the sensor dust. Some day when nikon have same system what canon have protekting sensor i will bye one. Sory bad english but i hope you gedit! :)
Tony we appreciate your unbiased research, and opinons.
