Thanks for the great video. Currently using both an R5 and an R6 II for astro, among other genres. Would definitely be interested in a comparison between R5 II and R5 & R6 II !
Only been back into photography since March 2024. I have followed your setting on two occasions with both the Canon R6M2 and the R5m1. I have enjoyed the R5 results. I did get the 24mm you used once in a video with the same issues in the corners, but they did turn out pretty good. After watching this video I really need to get the 3rd party stacker for the Mac. Thanks for all you do to enlighten us newbies.
Bro your videos are awesome 👌. Love you from KASHMIR ❤. Please make more videos on S24 Ultra and phone photography in general. Also teach us some photo editing too😊. Please 🙏
Hello Brent, thanks for your Review and showcase! Would be very interesting to see your procedure from the beginning to the end like setting up your R5 (mk2) with the startracker, stacking pictures and editing them. I bought the MK2 aswell and would continue shooting astro with the R5. When I would buy the Startracker you mentioned in your description, I'd have no idea how to use it or edit the photos alltogether :)
I took a star trails image with my R5 ths summer. Worked great. The stacking was more intensive due to the large file size, and for that type of image the benefits of the extra resolution are not really there. But from noise or ISO performance there were no issues related to the sensor.
Great video! I would love to see a video on photographing/stacking/editing of the Atlas comet that is visible now. Not sure about algorithm and how popular that might be or not but here is hoping :).
@@BrentHall OMG I did not expect that lol :). Thank you, Having breakfast and watching right now. We had clouds for last three days in Ottawa Ontario but the weather is supposed to be Easter side "nice" so I planned to head out today and s shot it in the face :)
Brent, I'm new to astro and have only use the r5ii a couple of times. I'm curious to know why you shot with iso? My mind is telling me could of compensated with a longer shutter to allow for the more light and in turn reducing iso
Max shutter speed must be set according to lens length to prevent star trails. The rest of the exposure is up to ISO and aperture. To prevent star trails, your shutter speed should be 500 ÷ focal length (or equivalent because distance is what really matters.) So, if your full-frame equivalent focal length is 20mm, the needed shutter speed would be 500÷20, which equals 25 seconds. If you're using a 50mm lens, it would be 500÷50, which should give you a 10 second shutter speed.
The ef-rf adapter works flawlessly. And, no I never use a cable release. I usually do timelapses with the built in intervalometer. You can always use the built in 2 or 10 sec timer delay as well.
comparison video with the r5, r5ii and r6ii would be fantastic!

The noise banding is being introduced by your lens corrections. If you turn them off the noise pattern becomes more even.

That video was hilarious with the "choice words" for people who think astro isn't possible with high megapixels and with the mountain lion.
here we go! combat rolling into the stars. boy i am excited 🌃🌃🌠
Does "rolling with the stars" beat "dancing with three stars"?
@@spidersj12 apparently. but how can we be ever sure...

Thanks for the video. I will keep my R5II for wildlife and use my R6II for astro and landscape. R5 is now backup...
Did some astro r5 mkii 20mm 1.4 sigma I thought it came out very well
Hey, Can u do another video for S23U/S24U taking photo of Our solar system planets? Please.😊
Great video! I would love to see a video on photographing/stacking/editing of the Atlas comet that is visible now. Not sure about algorithm and how popular that might be or not but here is hoping :).
Finishing it right now. It should be live in a couple hours.
Okay it's live now

Lovely 👍🏼 great story telling, hate the shutter noise sounds like the mirror Nikon 😢 but thanks an enjoyable watch with fabulous Wolves 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I use an R7, which has twice the pixel density of even the R5, for astro, with excellent results. Yes, choice words, indeed!

@JakeWalksAmerica surely an exposure/shutter time of say 10 seconds wouldn't cause star trails, would it?
@@Operation_aviation If your lens is longer than 50mm then yes, a 10 second shutter speed would create star trails.
What about making it for iPhone 16 Pro series?
Sorry, I've never used an iPhone and don't have one to try.
Man I really want the R5 II but is a mount adapter detrimental because I dont want to get rid of my sigma zoom lenses
and do you use a cableshutter to minimize vibrations and just keep shooting short exposures to stack or is it build in the camera?
The ef-rf adapter works flawlessly. And, no I never use a cable release. I usually do timelapses with the built in intervalometer. You can always use the built in 2 or 10 sec timer delay as well.
What is your sense of the high ISO performance compared to the R5 I ?
The R5mkii isn't any better for astro. I'd daresay the mki is better by a small margin.
All words are "choice words". Otherwise, we'd not say anything at all.
