I have the 5D MK IV and I wanted to replace my 7D MK II. So I decided to buy the RP. Sure, it is a slow camera, which is a bit disappointing. But be careful. It is still a canon full frame camera, with really good image quality. i do not regret it at all. I have tested all my EF lenses on it, and i can only say that this camera is underrated.
I'm planning to upgrade from my SL2/200D to a full frame. Currently I've 50 1.8 and 85 1.8 lens. I use camera 95% for photography (close up, headshot portraits, with bokeh).... I'm confused with 5dmiv, 6dmii and rp 😞
Funny how Vlogers rate a photography camera for video. I wish the camera manufacturers would stop listening to people like this and focus on developing an extremely good low light camera with excellent resolution and tell Vlogers to buy a video camera.
Can we PLEASE stop judging these cameras on video specs? If they wanted it be used primarily for video, they would market it as such. Everybody wants every new release to shoot 10 bit 4:2:2 internal raw at 120p 4k with no crop. How about a kick ass photo camera that doesnt even shoot video? I'll buy that!
D.E. SIGNS I agree with you. To me, it’s analogous to HiFi audio. From my 2nd system to my reference system, I had a separate power amp and preamp. In the reference system I even had mono blocks (2 separate amps) and a phono step up. The reason is that with an integrated amp a small box is being called up to do the work of separate equipment. No integrated amp will ever perform remotely close the separates. If you want all the best of video and all the best in still, get dedicated equipment.
One other thing I have shot everything from 35mm to 11x14, and I have to say that my favorite camera were my 4x5’s. Just a lens, bellows, focusing screen, light meter. The focus (no pun intended) was in creativity.
Thanks for the review. However I would point out that the ergonomics are much different between the two cameras. I own a 6D and have played around with the RP at the local Best Buy. The 6D is far superior in my opinion, the button and dials placement is almost perfect, the feel of the camera in my hands, it is probably Canon's best effort there. The RP feels awkward and cramped. Change for the sake of change. Too bad.
Exactly... so many “photographers” think an expensive body Is going to make them better. Learn fundamentals and spend money on glass, take your camera out of auto.
The 6D classic couldn't do wifi transfers of raw files. Can the Mark II that you're aware of? Shooting in-camera and sending raw to your phone to edit in Lightroom mobile is such a clutch game for instagram...
Preceptor Da that‘s true. But the wind tunnel test is very important for any photographer out there. And I just can‘t think of which is better since one is smaller but the bigger one has more aerodynamic edges.
Preceptor Da i don‘t know honestly. It‘s hard for me to give advice. I got a D750 after a D5300 since that‘s all I need. I know that you will get great results with an 80D, but the RP is not bad, considering the price and the most important thing: the mount options. Yout get this cheap ff body, now you get glass for it. If you upgrade your camera in the future you already have glass for it. Ok, you could also buy the ff lenses for your 80D, but in my opinion get the fullframe mirrorless for that price. Makes more sense than a DSLR now.
@Preceptor Da No problem mate. yeah I experience the same thing. It's always hard to start when there is no friend with the same hobby/passion. And no TH-cam videos will help, cause doing something with your friends is always cooler.
@Preceptor Da Sure. In the end it all depends in how important is this hobby for you, how much do you wanna use your camera and do you wanna keep doing it in the future. These questions should help you in how much you maybe want to spend. After that you I think Jared's camera comparison help you decide if you need certain cameras cause of their feature or if you can go with a cheaper/different model.
The RP may also be an option for a user of an older FF EF camera (I have been using the original 5D and 6D), that does not care about sports or video (only stills), already has good EF glass to use, and wants to move to a lighter mirrorless camera, suitable for travel photography.
amateur here, bought the rp with the 35mm lens as an update to my 5dii, i really like it, alone the autofocus upgrade is worth it to me, had to center focus recompose all the time and missed many shots on my kid and dog. low light is great too and the lightweight really has me bringing the cam along again after not bringing the 5d with me lately. Don't care what the haters say, i won't film much with it. didn't film with the 5d either. got a bunch of lenses that work fine with it and i'm very happy with it
I've not held/used an RP...but I tried using the Sony a7ii and a7iii and couldn't figure them out. I'm sure that I'll get should I spend more time with them ...but I picked up the EOS R and it was very intuitive (despite the mode dial)...in 5 min I was navigating it's functionality. As for the haters...when the 6Dmkii came out everyone said it sucked...I used it last year for a week, and was blown away by the quality of the images. I presume that the RP is victim of theirs as well.
@Silviu Vulcan no regrets so far, i really like the cam, plus the 35mm is awesome too. Been thinking of getting a 35mm for a while and couldn't be happier with it. The cam so far is great, sure battery life is a lot shorter than the 5dii but i bought the cam with a second battery and haven't had a day where i needed 2 batteries, one thing i also kinda notice is that the metering is sometimes a little inconsistent, but that might be something on my end. I have been looking into sonys as well but to be honest i was too lazy to do a whole system change, i have about 5 canon lenses which i really like and wanted to keep, they all work great with the adapter, also i'm probably too nostalgic to ever sell the 5dii so it will probably sit in my house waiting for a while cuz i didn't feel like using it after the purchase. I'd say go ahead and buy it, it's a great cam, fullframe is great too and you can keep both bodies in case you ever needed something for sports.as for the lenses, that's actually something where i would safe up to get a nice one, i have a 24-70 2.8, the first gen and it's great, buy good glass bodies come and go, cheers
@@KaReEdCa yeah it is intuitive, once you used canon before you're good to go with it. i really was looking into the 6dii when it came out but the focus system held me off the most, focus is great on the rp.
Same here was using 60D but i tried a friend's 5DMkii kinda wish mine is a full frame on a 35mm it's so wide compared to a crop frame camera. my only worry is EF adapter during auto focusing will it focus properly are you using one for EOS RP? i heard bad reviews about 6d mkii mainly it's video which i don't really care since i don't shoot videos with it. only thing that worries me now is the continuous shot. how slow is slow. need to put both camera photo and shoot side by side to tell the differences. idk if can survive with 60d probably can survive with EOS RP. another thing is the mount to third party lenses will it work?
I currently have the Canon 2000D, and want to upgrade to full frame and in general a better camera. The RP and 6D Mark ii are in my budget, but can’t decide which one to go for, I shoot landscapes, portraits mostly, and possibly a wedding next year which I am hoping to do more of
On all of my cameras, 6 cameras at this time... From Canon 5D MK3, to Nikon D610, Fuji X-T1 & T2, Fuji X-PRO1 & 2... I am always using the center AF focusing point, for my needs, type of pictures, I only need this central AF focusing point, so for me 4779, 12343, 45, 63, 153, ... focusing points I don't care at all ! :-)
I just got an RP with 50mm F1.2. (I already have a 6Dii and a M50.) I'm delighted with the RP. For me the advantages over the 6D are the light weight, the EVF, the headphone jack, and the RF mount. I shoot video at 25p so the lack of 24p is not a big issue. When Canon brings out a 5D equivalent EOS R I'll get that and use the RP for a second camera. The 4K is good for interviews where you can punch in for closeups without using 2 cameras. BTW, that extension thingy would be good for mounting on a tripod with the 50mm F1.2. A battery grip would be a good option. Everyone has different likes and needs, but if you can't take good photos and videos with an RP, YOU have the problem, not the camera. But if you want a different or better camera, that's fine. Also a big thank you to all the haters out there, I got my RP with 50mm F1.2, 35mm F1.8, adaptor, spare battery and filters for the equivalent of US$3,400.00 + tax.
I own the 6D II and truly enjoy using it. I think if anything, the EOS-R would be an "upgrade" to the 6D II. But the price point of the RP for someone wanting a 2nd body or getting into photography, it's hard to beat.
I’ve really hated the fact that DSLR has video over the years.I feel like they could pack extra features without video and stick with video only cameras.
Got my 6D2 on a smokin' deal right after it came out because everyone was bustin' its balls..... Picking apart the specs doesn't do this camera justice - I take it with me everywhere, and it impresses me everyday. There's no camera I'd rather have, and it also happens to be one of the best looking cameras ever made!
Dear Jarred, on all Canon DSLR cameras I had, they all had a pop-up flash. I bought a Canon R7 in May 2023. Unfortunately, it did not have a pop-up flash. I was in a somewhat dark situation and would have liked to have the pop-up flash for fill-in flash. Now I don't read anywhere in the reviews why the Canon R cameras no longer have a pop-up flash. I miss this one for a fill-in flash on the spot. You don't always have your external flash with you. Is there a reason why Canon no longer makes these pop-up flashes on the R cameras. Why is so little explanation given about this? please your commend.
I had the 6Dmii for about 2 months and finally switched to the RP. Basically as a weight consideration. The 6D with the kit zoom lens was so heavy that it made me not want to use it. The RP is so light and powerful that I keep it with me and use it all the time. Unfortunately, the flip side is that the battery life on the RP is appalling. The 6D I could shoot for days without thinking of battery life. The RP, I have to decide which hours I want to use it before rushing back to an outlet to charge it. If you get the RP: get another battery.
@@skullybeatz8183 I’m not sure. Image sharpness is something I’ve only been aware of when watching camera review videos 😄 I’ve not ever scrutinised the photos or edited them on a big screen (old computer). That said, I do generally feel like the as-is pics from the 6D were more satisfying (so not so much about sharpness, but the sense of depth & overall result or “vibe” of the undoctored 6D pics is for me a bit more juicy and punchy).
@@chriskaprys I've got a 6D and want to add a 2nd body, I was almost about to go for the RP, but the small size and battery life looks like a problem for me. I'm already carrying spare batteries and a charger on longer trips, I don't another ecosystem to manage. The issue with the 6Dmk1 that I have is the pretty rubbish 11 point AF sensor system, everything has to be focus and recompose. Hopeing the mk2 will be easier to track things....
But does the Wi-Fi actually work? This seems like just reading the specs off the tin. Actual reviews seem to say that the connectivity features are illusory and can’t be depended upon.
I think too often we tend to ignore the more important part is, if the camera is an upgrade to our current model we own. I own right now a Canon t7i, and to me, the Canon 6d Mark II is a huge upgrade to my gear and to my abilities to create better photos. I find too often that review videos lean away from that message. I lean to the 6d simply for the fact I prefer not to need to buy an adapter for the glass I already own. I truly think overall these cameras are very similar if you were to remove that one is mirrorless.
It’s funny how the tech world thinks if it’s not a new mirrorless, it’s crap, forgetting that the best images ever taken are from dslr’s, or even slr’s. Go out and shoot!
I have the canon SL2 and I was looking at what to upgrade first the RP might not be the best but it seems like the great investment for lenses in the future
I love the SL2. I have the 6d II and the 80d and use the SL2 more than either of them. Thinking of selling both and getting the RP. Tired of big, heavy cameras. Definitely keeping the SL2, regardless.
I remain amused by the comparison between not only these two cameras, but between mirrorless and DSLR in general. Mirrorless is typically thought of as advantageous thanks to smaller, lighter bodies. Two ways they achieve that are shorter focal length and lack of a mirror and pentaprism. So then we have R series glass - some of the biggest and heaviest, not to mention most expensive lenses on the market today. But wait - you can put on an adapter to use your EF mount glass. Well, that just compensates for the focal length difference... hey wait a minute... yep, there goes your advantages. Oh, and if you like your body and lenses to have balance on the tripod and in the hand, well sorry but the EOS R will not have the same balance characteristics as an equivalent DSLR. So then maybe its just about features? Does the EOS R offer enough features to drive people to switch to this system? I don't personally think so, but maybe some folks do. Lastly, the apparent price advantage. Well, that evaporates as soon as you load on that nice 24 - 105 R lens it typically comes with and frankly if you're not investing in RF glass, why bother making the switch? As far as i can tell the few extra "check marks" that went to the EOS R do not really tell the story. For value you would be hard pressed to do better than the 6D MKII. It's a brilliant camera with some limitations, but with the exception of the focus points the EOS R does not overcome those limitations well enough to matter.
Thanks, that was a great breakdown. It is a tough call between these two for me. I don't shoot action and shoot mostly handheld with heavy lenses so dropping a pound would be nice. The odd thing is I have come to prefer the optical viewfinder over the Screens for the most part. Somehow I just feel more connected to my subject. I loved the digital viewfinders at first but going back and forth I keep reaching for my old Canons over Olympus/Fuji bodies.
Im thinking the EOS RP will be my first full frame camera because I mainly do landscapes, portraits and street photography plus its a big step up from my 200D
Rtfm, the 6d mk 2 has NFC and Bluetooth connectivity, not sure if canon makes software that works or not though,haha. Love the vids keep doing yo thang
Hi, Thank you for the wonderful video ❤️ I'm looking to buy my first camera my budget ranges from 1- 1.5 lakh, Iam not a professional photographer, just a hobby Photographer I'm a person more on to photography mostly potraits, Pre wedding & sometimes wildlife, Video I do might shoot for particular occasion. After checking on video I found, Canon 80d /90d, Canon EOS RP/ canon 6d mark ii /sony a 7 iii Sony a6400 considering that i want to buy a 50mm prime lens f 1.8 makes me go blank with respect to mirrorless as the price of lens is way to expensive Iam confused on which to buy as my 1st camera to get my skills up, where should i be investing money.
im a small youtuber and use the eos T7i and the G7X Mark ll , my question is im looking to upgrade , what would be the best youtuber camera in your opinion?? thank you
Get the Eos m50 or m6ii your arms will thank you in the future. Also TH-cam algorithms put a higher preference to 4K videos so if you start 4K you may see more views. Look at Potato Jet vids
I love my 6D Mk2 it feels like camera should feel the RP feels like a baby. I was going to get the RP, but ended up getting the R and I still love my 6D Mk2 more even though the R is a better camera. The 6D MK2 and R both have the same battery and I am glad I went with the R instead. battery.
Same. I was between the rp and 6D2. I went with the 6D2 because it’s more refined and battery life being a big deal to me, glad I got the 6D2 instead of the rp. I might have regretted the RP
@@El_Lonli I have a 60D along with a 6DMk2 and just bought an RP a few days ago. Buying extra batteries was a must so I went ahead and did so along with ordering a battery grip. Being able to load two batteries should help with the shooting time.
I'm late to the party on this. But I think the UHS II card in the RP is useless. The camera doesn't take photos fast enough to use them, outside of shooting 4K. Which isn't the reason why I'm buying a still camera.
I bought a t7i 3 months ago. Did some research and bought the 6d mark ii because I wanted a full frame camera. I will use both. I'll stick my 70-200mm f2.8 on my t7i and fill the frame up and not lose megapixels. I will use my 6d mark ii on shots I can fill the frame up. I'm just starting so correct me if I am wrong!
I have had full frame envy for a couple of years. I own 2 great crop sensor Canon cameras and my lens are EF. The 6DMkII fits my budget and my expectations as an amateur photographer. The real irony for me with all this new mirrorless stuff is that I started with a Fuji mirrorless some years ago before they became cool. I didn't lke it and that time developed SLR envy haha. I am going to buy a 6DMII. It's specs are close to my 80D which works for me. Thanks Jared, always a pleasure.
How did you get on with it? I have a 6D and whilst the mk2 got slated because it was supposedly inferior, I think that was largely nonsense about noise and saturation that is really easy to fix, and probably not noticeable in the majority of applications. The trick is to stop pixel peeping, it doesn't make the images any better!
Anyone have low light experience and thoughts about both of these cameras? I'm certainly leaning towards the RP. I need low light intel though - indoor mostly.
I just got the 6D mk2 and i Love it. I heard so much negative views about it but than I held my head and realized that it surpasses my old trusty 5D mk2 in any parameter including the video. I paid 750€ for a hardly used second hand. I got it on the original box with all the extra equipment and an extra battery. So far I'm blown by this camera capabilities. Certainly exeeded my expectations.
I am thankful that I have camera, and I have still way to go to improve my photography. I appreciate your amazing and detailed cameras reviews based on your personal experience not the camera specifications. Thank you Jared.
6d mk2 in Europe is ~€1100-1200 that's $1200-1300.Which makes mk1 even cheaper.Not to mention older cameras like 5d classic, 5d mk2, nikon d600,610, 700, sony a7 mk1.. These days you can have a decent setup of ff body and a 50mm lens, even for less than $400. But if you only sit and watch videos and gear reviews for 24/7, than you believe that the only way to snap a good photo is if you only buy the latest gear.
Great comparison. Both are excellent cameras and I like the emphasis you put on glass and photography fundamentals over bodies. Both cameras have strengths and weaknesses. I use the 6d ii alongside the 5d iv (events, kids, crowds, people). The flip out screen is something the 5d just doesn't have, so the 6d ii is a great partner for this. I also love that both the 6d ii and 5d iv use the same battery. I often pair the 6d ii with the 16-35 iii and use it with dual pixel AF while the 5d holds the a longer lens (e.g. 70-200 2.8, 85 1.4 is, or even the 50 1.2 depending on the situation). I seldom shoot any video at all. I might upgrade the 6d ii to the R (or some next version of it), but not the RP. The RP gets minus two (-2) checks, in my situations, for being slow on paper. I should probably try it out, but I think this video confirms the slowness. Also, it's worth noting that while the autofocus points on the 6d ii are clumped when using the SLR system, you can use the dual pixel AF system on the 6d ii and get better (and slower) af coverage (albeit on a flip out screen). Along with that new 50, i imagine once those new 85s come out, it's going to be hard not having an RF mount. One more thing, I imagine that I *might* enjoy quieter shooting in some situations from the mirrorless. Is it noticeably quieter? Thanks again.
I can’t comment on the RP, but I have the 6D mark ii, and had it 6 months and is still blowing me away with the vid and pic quality, I can’t imagine what better video must be like, I upload to YTube and insta and have to lower the bit rate and compress it so the in built app compression doesn’t do its horrid thing, so it is not quite as nice as straight out of the camera. So for me better vid would be a waste of spending thousands more. The only thing I wish for is 120fps, if it had this I would be happy as punch.
I have a EOS 5DSR and EOS R and EOS RP. a selection of ES and R lenses all L lenses except from my 16mm 2.8 R. My goto camera is the RP with the R 24-105 f4 L.
Hey Jared, I've got a question. Since deciding I want to pursue photography as a career, I'm going to school this fall for photography. I mainly do portraits and some street photography. I don't have much money but I'm hoping to get a full frame camera before or early into college. I have a canon sl2 which has the same battery as the RP but I found out sony still makes and sells their older A7 and A7ii for really cheap new. Would you suggest an A7 (original) or the RP?
Luna Wroblewski I would go with either. They can both do street and portrait quite well. Have a think of which camera eco system you prefer. Look at the cameras above this and what lens selections are available which you might want. More often than not, most photographers stick with the brand they buy first ... just my two cents
@@touringband I've always loved L lenses. My high school photo teacher praised it. I started with a t5 then. I've got a few cheaper canon lenses so that's why I was thinking if I switched new, I wouldn't be outta money with the big glass, however like I said, my current camera uses the same battery as the RP and I've got 5 of them (the one with the RP would be 6) it would also mean I've got some lenses to start with. I've got time to think about it. Thanks for your 2 cents, it did give me some perspective
Hey this is me from the future to past me - this video made me buy the 6D for 1200$ on a sale and even with it having a front focussing that got solved by re-adjusting the AF Sensor via warranty im really happy with it - i dont have to do an adapter fiddle for EVERY lense i own and the fact that i only own EF lenses makes the 6D the right choice eventhough its a bit on the "large" side - Although i can still use my old 77D OR buy.. say a fuji xt30 for "travel" if its too much to carry. - Oh and past me, there is going to be a R5 and R6 soon end of this year so look out for thems! Oh and the RP uses the same battery as the 77D and there is a reason why i have 4 and was constantly recharging them especially in cold weather while the 6D ones.. yea i have 3 but on a shoot i rarely use more than one, and thats starting at like 70% charge... those 5D/6D / R batteries are real heavy duty things - for once totally worth the absurd canon OG battery price :D
I am currently deciding between the Canon EOS RP and the Sony A7 II. I don't shoot video so I need it just for stills and none of the videos could help me decide. If anyone could help me sort this out I would be really grateful.
Comparing Eos R focus points to a DSLR focus points is nonsense. With live view on the 6D II you can achieve a similar "5 billions focus points" or whatever results
What a coincidence Jared! Exactly one year after your video, I am looking to replace my current Canon setup from many years ago. I looked at the 80D, 90D, 77D and the EOS 6D Mark II as well. I don't really mind the continuous shooting speed but care more about the WIFI functionality, UHS-II support, 143 AF points, touch and drag feature which looked so useful in real life scenarios, official support for EF lenses using a mount, DIGIC-8 for an updated image processing, much lighter, less bulky and yes, I would probably buy another spare battery considering the small size (1040mAh or about 250 shots). Thanks for this easy comparison video!
Maybe a strange question but when talking about video in cameras these days we refer to 1080p and 60fps. I understand the "p" in 1080p has a specific meaning but why do we say "p" in 60p when it's 60fps? Doesn't the "p" just stand for per? I'm no video guru so maybe I'm way off on this but 60fps means 60 Frames Per Second, correct? Why do people say 60p?????
I can see the benefit of using the sensor to set the focus point, means no lens calibration errors etc, so presumably the mirrorless body will return a greater number of sharp in focus images compared to a DSLR? I really like the idea of sliding my thumb around on the rear screen to set the focal point whilst using the EVF, that's really cool and way faster than focus and recompose, which is what I mostly do now (I use a canon OES 6D mki) and I'm undecided between these two bodies to add to my bag.
your autofocus comparison is not valid. While 6D only have 45 points, they are using old method and all 45 is cross point, and its very great with 1 dual cross point in the middle. Also when you are using LCD, both af performance i think basically the same.. While RP doesnt have optical vf. I still choose 6D mk ii, they are more mature product through years of development, while RP and R is still new here.. maybe in next 3 or 4 years i can completely change to EOS R system, while i still enjoy using 5D4 without any problem til now after 3 years
One thing about these cameras that you didn't address at all, is something that concerns me greatly. I have a "Dust Pump" otherwise known as Cannon's 100-400L f4.5-5.6 Series I Lens and I am deeply concerned about sensor cleaning, I presently shoot with a Canon 70 D and I am forever cleaning the sensor. does having no mirror in front of the sensor on the Canon EOS RP mean the sensor will be even more prone to dust spots, if not even more so because of the larger sensor?
Just listened to this dude for the first time. While reasonably informative, his presentation is jarring, loud and drowns information. Slow down, tone it down and simmer down and you'll be okay. 1.17M subscribers? Really?
I don't care about video so the RP was a no brainer for me, really easy to take with me spontaneously, whereas I'd leave a bigger camera at home for casual day trips.
I upgraded from my canon t6 to the 6DMii last August and am quite please with it. When the rp was first announced it was really tempting to switch with the adapter and everything included but the more research I did the better my current camera looked. The major drawbacks for me were no top mount lcd, not a lot of external buttons for adjustments on the fly, the lower FPS, and the much smaller battery was what really killed it for me. The only thing the RP really has over the 6DMii is the auto focus and the evf.
With the firmware update and price drop, I'm thinking about getting the RP... AND it's commign from a guy who got a shiny X-T3 only a few months back ^^'
I bought a rp in mid 2020, and don’t regret it one bit. I upgraded from a T7i which I bought holiday season of 2019, to upgrade from my super ancient xti. The rf ecosystem is very enticing moving forward.
(sorry about my bad english) Well... I really love your videos, but now, the most part of it is about gear.Its all about buy, and buy, and buy. Lenses, camera bodies, etc. And we all know that photography are not about it. Its even too captalistic, you know, in a dangerous way. Sebastião salgado, Irving Penn, Henri Cartier Bresson, Vivian Maier and a lot of another photographers never gets a equipment so good or tech as the ones that we use. (I know the quality of film, medium format and old lenses - the point here is this crazy technological capitalism). Here in Brazil - third world is especially hard to buy good equipments! Here's everything is so expensive, that we have to "work with we have". Well, peace! (never stop saying THE L MOUNT ALLIANCE!)
Take up Golfing.....that will really gull you, as you play next to all those rich captalists out on the green.....lol. Just make sure to take your trusty 6d Mark ii with you....for some great golf shots!!!
“You get the best of both worlds..” Now that song is stuck in my head. 😂 Honestly, Sony will always be a win for me, they just need a flip screens on more cameras.
the RP makes the 6D look like an old man but fails to dominate because of the 6D’s wisdom
Well said 👏
I have the 5D MK IV and I wanted to replace my 7D MK II. So I decided to buy the RP. Sure, it is a slow camera, which is a bit disappointing. But be careful. It is still a canon full frame camera, with really good image quality. i do not regret it at all. I have tested all my EF lenses on it, and i can only say that this camera is underrated.

D.E. SIGNS I agree with you. To me, it’s analogous to HiFi audio. From my 2nd system to my reference system, I had a separate power amp and preamp. In the reference system I even had mono blocks (2 separate amps) and a phono step up. The reason is that with an integrated amp a small box is being called up to do the work of separate equipment. No integrated amp will ever perform remotely close the separates.
If you want all the best of video and all the best in still, get dedicated equipment.
One other thing I have shot everything from 35mm to 11x14, and I have to say that my favorite camera were my 4x5’s. Just a lens, bellows, focusing screen, light meter. The focus (no pun intended) was in creativity.
4:10 Canon can do it. They just won't give that to you. Otherwise, what's the point in buying the R.
Thanks for the review. However I would point out that the ergonomics are much different between the two cameras. I own a 6D and have played around with the RP at the local Best Buy. The 6D is far superior in my opinion, the button and dials placement is almost perfect, the feel of the camera in my hands, it is probably Canon's best effort there. The RP feels awkward and cramped. Change for the sake of change. Too bad.
The 6D II is my favorite camera of all time. The RP is nifty, but the 6D is tried and true.
Yes ! It’s true the 6d is probably better
Exactly... so many “photographers” think an expensive body Is going to make them better. Learn fundamentals and spend money on glass, take your camera out of auto.
If I had to choose between the 6dii and the rp... I take the A7iii
Im a dog Garcia Hahahahahah
Is in nother level !!!
@Silviu Vulcan facts
@Silviu Vulcan controls on Sony are awful...
Jared, the 6D MKII also has Bluetooth connectivity and can also automatically send the photo to your phone or iPad. Just saying!!!
True. That's one of the features why I bought this nice camera.
The 6D classic couldn't do wifi transfers of raw files. Can the Mark II that you're aware of? Shooting in-camera and sending raw to your phone to edit in Lightroom mobile is such a clutch game for instagram...
@@mikepawlikguitar yes it can! Had it since jan 2018
I still don't understand the logic of Canon on AF points of 6d Mark II.
It was a way to keep cost down. DSLR wasn't so advanced
You forgot the sniff test and wind tunnel test Jared LOL
Oh shit. This comparison is not legit.
Preceptor Da that‘s true. But the wind tunnel test is very important for any photographer out there. And I just can‘t think of which is better since one is smaller but the bigger one has more aerodynamic edges.
Preceptor Da i don‘t know honestly. It‘s hard for me to give advice. I got a D750 after a D5300 since that‘s all I need. I know that you will get great results with an 80D, but the RP is not bad, considering the price and the most important thing: the mount options. Yout get this cheap ff body, now you get glass for it. If you upgrade your camera in the future you already have glass for it. Ok, you could also buy the ff lenses for your 80D, but in my opinion get the fullframe mirrorless for that price. Makes more sense than a DSLR now.
@Preceptor Da No problem mate.
yeah I experience the same thing. It's always hard to start when there is no friend with the same hobby/passion. And no TH-cam videos will help, cause doing something with your friends is always cooler.
@Preceptor Da Sure. In the end it all depends in how important is this hobby for you, how much do you wanna use your camera and do you wanna keep doing it in the future.
These questions should help you in how much you maybe want to spend. After that you I think Jared's camera comparison help you decide if you need certain cameras cause of their feature or if you can go with a cheaper/different model.
The RP may also be an option for a user of an older FF EF camera (I have been using the original 5D and 6D), that does not care about sports or video (only stills), already has good EF glass to use, and wants to move to a lighter mirrorless camera, suitable for travel photography.
WHY DO AMERICANS FEEL THE NEED TO SHOUT AT THE TOP OF THEIR VOICE ALWAYS ON CAMERA? FFS, I AM MARRIED ALREADY!
I bought the RP before I saw this and I'm happy with it also it is my first full frame
I think 6D is better but the RP would be a better investment for the future, since that is the direction Canon seems to be going
Why is it in every comment section about photography/sound production everyone just making love to their stuff instead of pointing out pros and cons?
amateur here, bought the rp with the 35mm lens as an update to my 5dii, i really like it, alone the autofocus upgrade is worth it to me, had to center focus recompose all the time and missed many shots on my kid and dog. low light is great too and the lightweight really has me bringing the cam along again after not bringing the 5d with me lately. Don't care what the haters say, i won't film much with it. didn't film with the 5d either. got a bunch of lenses that work fine with it and i'm very happy with it
I've not held/used an RP...but I tried using the Sony a7ii and a7iii and couldn't figure them out. I'm sure that I'll get should I spend more time with them ...but I picked up the EOS R and it was very intuitive (despite the mode dial)...in 5 min I was navigating it's functionality.
As for the haters...when the 6Dmkii came out everyone said it sucked...I used it last year for a week, and was blown away by the quality of the images. I presume that the RP is victim of theirs as well.
@Silviu Vulcan no regrets so far, i really like the cam, plus the 35mm is awesome too. Been thinking of getting a 35mm for a while and couldn't be happier with it. The cam so far is great, sure battery life is a lot shorter than the 5dii but i bought the cam with a second battery and haven't had a day where i needed 2 batteries, one thing i also kinda notice is that the metering is sometimes a little inconsistent, but that might be something on my end. I have been looking into sonys as well but to be honest i was too lazy to do a whole system change, i have about 5 canon lenses which i really like and wanted to keep, they all work great with the adapter, also i'm probably too nostalgic to ever sell the 5dii so it will probably sit in my house waiting for a while cuz i didn't feel like using it after the purchase. I'd say go ahead and buy it, it's a great cam, fullframe is great too and you can keep both bodies in case you ever needed something for sports.as for the lenses, that's actually something where i would safe up to get a nice one, i have a 24-70 2.8, the first gen and it's great, buy good glass bodies come and go, cheers
@@KaReEdCa yeah it is intuitive, once you used canon before you're good to go with it. i really was looking into the 6dii when it came out but the focus system held me off the most, focus is great on the rp.
Same here was using 60D but i tried a friend's 5DMkii kinda wish mine is a full frame on a 35mm it's so wide compared to a crop frame camera.
my only worry is EF adapter during auto focusing will it focus properly are you using one for EOS RP?
i heard bad reviews about 6d mkii mainly it's video which i don't really care since i don't shoot videos with it.
only thing that worries me now is the continuous shot. how slow is slow. need to put both camera photo and shoot side by side to tell the differences.
idk if can survive with 60d probably can survive with EOS RP.
another thing is the mount to third party lenses will it work?
I’ve also got a 5dmii. Trying to decide what to upgrade to.
I bought my 6DMKII for $1200 w/o lens but w/ battery grip.
I love my 6DMKII

Jared is just not a fan of both cameras 😂🤣
This is the second video I have watched by you where you have failed to realize/mention that the 6D Mark II has bluetooth along with wifi....
Exactly why Mr. Nimrod needs to redo this entire video and set the record straight!!! We love you Jared, even if your not always perfect!!!
On all of my cameras, 6 cameras at this time... From Canon 5D MK3, to Nikon D610, Fuji X-T1 & T2, Fuji X-PRO1 & 2... I am always using the center AF focusing point, for my needs, type of pictures, I only need this central AF focusing point, so for me 4779, 12343, 45, 63, 153, ... focusing points I don't care at all ! :-)
I just got an RP with 50mm F1.2. (I already have a 6Dii and a M50.) I'm delighted with the RP. For me the advantages over the 6D are the light weight, the EVF, the headphone jack, and the RF mount. I shoot video at 25p so the lack of 24p is not a big issue. When Canon brings out a 5D equivalent EOS R I'll get that and use the RP for a second camera. The 4K is good for interviews where you can punch in for closeups without using 2 cameras. BTW, that extension thingy would be good for mounting on a tripod with the 50mm F1.2. A battery grip would be a good option.
Everyone has different likes and needs, but if you can't take good photos and videos with an RP, YOU have the problem, not the camera. But if you want a different or better camera, that's fine.
Also a big thank you to all the haters out there, I got my RP with 50mm F1.2, 35mm F1.8, adaptor, spare battery and filters for the equivalent of US$3,400.00 + tax.
I own the 6D II and truly enjoy using it. I think if anything, the EOS-R would be an "upgrade" to the 6D II. But the price point of the RP for someone wanting a 2nd body or getting into photography, it's hard to beat.
Give Canon a HUGE down-check for making DPP Express only available for iOS! They leave Android users out in the cold.
I will take the faster FPS and extra battery life of the 6D MK2. Great video!
I’ve really hated the fact that DSLR has video over the years.I feel like they could pack extra features without video and stick with video only cameras.
Got my 6D2 on a smokin' deal right after it came out because everyone was bustin' its balls..... Picking apart the specs doesn't do this camera justice - I take it with me everywhere, and it impresses me everyday. There's no camera I'd rather have, and it also happens to be one of the best looking cameras ever made!
Thinking of selling mine and getting the RP. Tired of the weight.
Dear Jarred, on all Canon DSLR cameras I had, they all had a pop-up flash. I bought a Canon R7 in May 2023. Unfortunately, it did not have a pop-up flash. I was in a somewhat dark situation and would have liked to have the pop-up flash for fill-in flash. Now I don't read anywhere in the reviews why the Canon R cameras no longer have a pop-up flash. I miss this one for a fill-in flash on the spot. You don't always have your external flash with you.
Is there a reason why Canon no longer makes these pop-up flashes on the R cameras.
Why is so little explanation given about this?
please your commend.
I had the 6Dmii for about 2 months and finally switched to the RP. Basically as a weight consideration. The 6D with the kit zoom lens was so heavy that it made me not want to use it. The RP is so light and powerful that I keep it with me and use it all the time. Unfortunately, the flip side is that the battery life on the RP is appalling. The 6D I could shoot for days without thinking of battery life. The RP, I have to decide which hours I want to use it before rushing back to an outlet to charge it. If you get the RP: get another battery.
@@mickeytran1936 word
do you get the same image sharpness with the RP like u do with the 6D?
@@skullybeatz8183 I’m not sure. Image sharpness is something I’ve only been aware of when watching camera review videos 😄 I’ve not ever scrutinised the photos or edited them on a big screen (old computer). That said, I do generally feel like the as-is pics from the 6D were more satisfying (so not so much about sharpness, but the sense of depth & overall result or “vibe” of the undoctored 6D pics is for me a bit more juicy and punchy).
@@chriskaprys I've got a 6D and want to add a 2nd body, I was almost about to go for the RP, but the small size and battery life looks like a problem for me. I'm already carrying spare batteries and a charger on longer trips, I don't another ecosystem to manage. The issue with the 6Dmk1 that I have is the pretty rubbish 11 point AF sensor system, everything has to be focus and recompose. Hopeing the mk2 will be easier to track things....
@@steviesteve750 hopefully. I remember the tracking being pretty darn great when I was taking pics of my niece running around at the playground.
But does the Wi-Fi actually work? This seems like just reading the specs off the tin. Actual reviews seem to say that the connectivity features are illusory and can’t be depended upon.
I think too often we tend to ignore the more important part is, if the camera is an upgrade to our current model we own. I own right now a Canon t7i, and to me, the Canon 6d Mark II is a huge upgrade to my gear and to my abilities to create better photos. I find too often that review videos lean away from that message. I lean to the 6d simply for the fact I prefer not to need to buy an adapter for the glass I already own. I truly think overall these cameras are very similar if you were to remove that one is mirrorless.
The weight. Big difference. And the size. Also, RP has a newer processor, Digic 8. That should mean better IQ than the 6d II.
ive just realized that your videos have a tiny bit of vignette
It’s funny how the tech world thinks if it’s not a new mirrorless, it’s crap, forgetting that the best images ever taken are from dslr’s, or even slr’s. Go out and shoot!
Couldn't agree more
For me 6D Mark II seems like more subtle choice. But, both are great nonetheless.
I have the canon SL2 and I was looking at what to upgrade first the RP might not be the best but it seems like the great investment for lenses in the future
I love the SL2. I have the 6d II and the 80d and use the SL2 more than either of them. Thinking of selling both and getting the RP. Tired of big, heavy cameras. Definitely keeping the SL2, regardless.
I think 6d is better but rp is future
Yes, mirrorless is the future.
But it's not the future yet.
@@akeiai If its not the future, it is the present. Soo, logic would say it is the future...! haha
@@kenspo yeah, the logic of time is very confusing, yet not so confusing.
Tesla vs oil car
Didn't get where I can see side-by-side RAW photos he talks about in the beginning 🤷♀
I remain amused by the comparison between not only these two cameras, but between mirrorless and DSLR in general. Mirrorless is typically thought of as advantageous thanks to smaller, lighter bodies. Two ways they achieve that are shorter focal length and lack of a mirror and pentaprism. So then we have R series glass - some of the biggest and heaviest, not to mention most expensive lenses on the market today. But wait - you can put on an adapter to use your EF mount glass. Well, that just compensates for the focal length difference... hey wait a minute... yep, there goes your advantages. Oh, and if you like your body and lenses to have balance on the tripod and in the hand, well sorry but the EOS R will not have the same balance characteristics as an equivalent DSLR. So then maybe its just about features? Does the EOS R offer enough features to drive people to switch to this system? I don't personally think so, but maybe some folks do. Lastly, the apparent price advantage. Well, that evaporates as soon as you load on that nice 24 - 105 R lens it typically comes with and frankly if you're not investing in RF glass, why bother making the switch? As far as i can tell the few extra "check marks" that went to the EOS R do not really tell the story. For value you would be hard pressed to do better than the 6D MKII. It's a brilliant camera with some limitations, but with the exception of the focus points the EOS R does not overcome those limitations well enough to matter.
Thanks, that was a great breakdown. It is a tough call between these two for me. I don't shoot action and shoot mostly handheld with heavy lenses so dropping a pound would be nice. The odd thing is I have come to prefer the optical viewfinder over the Screens for the most part. Somehow I just feel more connected to my subject. I loved the digital viewfinders at first but going back and forth I keep reaching for my old Canons over Olympus/Fuji bodies.
Im thinking the EOS RP will be my first full frame camera because I mainly do landscapes, portraits and street photography plus its a big step up from my 200D
Did u get it?
What about the Eos R, compared to the R6 Mii ?
It would be nice if jared can show a table in the end of all the comparison or check marks of all the specs & features.
I don’t think I’ve ever heard a camera be described as “chodier” Hahaha!
Rtfm, the 6d mk 2 has NFC and Bluetooth connectivity, not sure if canon makes software that works or not though,haha.

Thank you for the wonderful video ❤️
I'm looking to buy my first camera my budget ranges from 1- 1.5 lakh,
Iam not a professional photographer, just a hobby Photographer
I'm a person more on to photography mostly potraits, Pre wedding & sometimes wildlife,
Video I do might shoot for particular occasion.
After checking on video I found,
Canon 80d /90d,
Canon EOS RP/ canon 6d mark ii
/sony a 7 iii
Sony a6400
considering that i want to buy a 50mm prime lens f 1.8 makes me go blank with respect to mirrorless as the price of lens is way to expensive
Iam confused on which to buy as my 1st camera to get my skills up, where should i be investing money.
An adapter will allow u to use dslr lenses. Sony will looy you when you need lens. Buy eos rp or 6d mark ii. Whichever is cheaper in india.
im a small youtuber and use the eos T7i and the G7X Mark ll , my question is im looking to upgrade , what would be the best youtuber camera in your opinion?? thank you
6d Mark ii with the flexible screen.
Get the Eos m50 or m6ii your arms will thank you in the future. Also TH-cam algorithms put a higher preference to 4K videos so if you start 4K you may see more views. Look at Potato Jet vids

battery.
Same. I was between the rp and 6D2. I went with the 6D2 because it’s more refined and battery life being a big deal to me, glad I got the 6D2 instead of the rp. I might have regretted the RP
For sure you would and shutter count is much better on 6D mk2
@@El_Lonli I have a 60D along with a 6DMk2 and just bought an RP a few days ago. Buying extra batteries was a must so I went ahead and did so along with ordering a battery grip. Being able to load two batteries should help with the shooting time.
I'm late to the party on this. But I think the UHS II card in the RP is useless. The camera doesn't take photos fast enough to use them, outside of shooting 4K. Which isn't the reason why I'm buying a still camera.
I bought a t7i 3 months ago. Did some research and bought the 6d mark ii because I wanted a full frame camera. I will use both. I'll stick my 70-200mm f2.8 on my t7i and fill the frame up and not lose megapixels. I will use my 6d mark ii on shots I can fill the frame up. I'm just starting so correct me if I am wrong!
Why didn’t they just make the battery wider ... no one would begrudge the extra width for 50% better battery life I don’t get it ....
Actually 6D2 has dual pixel in live view mode. And it's ergonomic is way more pro-like.
I have had full frame envy for a couple of years. I own 2 great crop sensor Canon cameras and my lens are EF. The 6DMkII fits my budget and my expectations as an amateur photographer. The real irony for me with all this new mirrorless stuff is that I started with a Fuji mirrorless some years ago before they became cool. I didn't lke it and that time developed SLR envy haha. I am going to buy a 6DMII. It's specs are close to my 80D which works for me. Thanks Jared, always a pleasure.
How did you get on with it? I have a 6D and whilst the mk2 got slated because it was supposedly inferior, I think that was largely nonsense about noise and saturation that is really easy to fix, and probably not noticeable in the majority of applications. The trick is to stop pixel peeping, it doesn't make the images any better!
Anyone have low light experience and thoughts about both of these cameras? I'm certainly leaning towards the RP. I need low light intel though - indoor mostly.
I'd like to know that too.
6d mark2 any day.. One of the best cameras available in the market right now for the money.
I know there are better cameras than the 6dMII but in my opinion is the best all around camera for the price.
I just got the 6D mk2 and i Love it. I heard so much negative views about it but than I held my head and realized that it surpasses my old trusty 5D mk2 in any parameter including the video. I paid 750€ for a hardly used second hand. I got it on the original box with all the extra equipment and an extra battery. So far I'm blown by this camera capabilities. Certainly exeeded my expectations.
I am thankful that I have camera, and I have still way to go to improve my photography. I appreciate your amazing and detailed cameras reviews based on your personal experience not the camera specifications. Thank you Jared.
I love it when Jared called out the 50 raw files part. Such bs fps from the RP
6d mk2 in Europe is ~€1100-1200 that's $1200-1300.Which makes mk1 even cheaper.Not to mention older cameras like 5d classic, 5d mk2, nikon d600,610, 700, sony a7 mk1..
These days you can have a decent setup of ff body and a 50mm lens, even for less than $400.
But if you only sit and watch videos and gear reviews for 24/7, than you believe that the only way to snap a good photo is if you only buy the latest gear.
Great comparison. Both are excellent cameras and I like the emphasis you put on glass and photography fundamentals over bodies. Both cameras have strengths and weaknesses. I use the 6d ii alongside the 5d iv (events, kids, crowds, people). The flip out screen is something the 5d just doesn't have, so the 6d ii is a great partner for this. I also love that both the 6d ii and 5d iv use the same battery. I often pair the 6d ii with the 16-35 iii and use it with dual pixel AF while the 5d holds the a longer lens (e.g. 70-200 2.8, 85 1.4 is, or even the 50 1.2 depending on the situation). I seldom shoot any video at all. I might upgrade the 6d ii to the R (or some next version of it), but not the RP. The RP gets minus two (-2) checks, in my situations, for being slow on paper. I should probably try it out, but I think this video confirms the slowness. Also, it's worth noting that while the autofocus points on the 6d ii are clumped when using the SLR system, you can use the dual pixel AF system on the 6d ii and get better (and slower) af coverage (albeit on a flip out screen). Along with that new 50, i imagine once those new 85s come out, it's going to be hard not having an RF mount. One more thing, I imagine that I *might* enjoy quieter shooting in some situations from the mirrorless. Is it noticeably quieter? Thanks again.
I can’t comment on the RP, but I have the 6D mark ii, and had it 6 months and is still blowing me away with the vid and pic quality, I can’t imagine what better video must be like, I upload to YTube and insta and have to lower the bit rate and compress it so the in built app compression doesn’t do its horrid thing, so it is not quite as nice as straight out of the camera. So for me better vid would be a waste of spending thousands more. The only thing I wish for is 120fps, if it had this I would be happy as punch.
Both are better then my Canon Rebel T5 so either one will be an upgrade
정말 멋진 내용일것 같지만 전 한국인이라서 울면서 나갑니다....

Great Review. I may have missed it but i did not hear if the RP was mirrorless?
The RP is mirrorless
Hey Jared, I've got a question. Since deciding I want to pursue photography as a career, I'm going to school this fall for photography. I mainly do portraits and some street photography. I don't have much money but I'm hoping to get a full frame camera before or early into college. I have a canon sl2 which has the same battery as the RP but I found out sony still makes and sells their older A7 and A7ii for really cheap new. Would you suggest an A7 (original) or the RP?
Luna Wroblewski I would go with either. They can both do street and portrait quite well. Have a think of which camera eco system you prefer. Look at the cameras above this and what lens selections are available which you might want. More often than not, most photographers stick with the brand they buy first ... just my two cents
The big issue with the A7 is the AF system. its very unreliable. especially in low light.
@@touringband I've always loved L lenses. My high school photo teacher praised it. I started with a t5 then. I've got a few cheaper canon lenses so that's why I was thinking if I switched new, I wouldn't be outta money with the big glass, however like I said, my current camera uses the same battery as the RP and I've got 5 of them (the one with the RP would be 6) it would also mean I've got some lenses to start with. I've got time to think about it. Thanks for your 2 cents, it did give me some perspective
@@MikedieONE I was unaware. I thought all Sony's were just supposed to be good at that stuff. Thanks!
Hey this is me from the future to past me - this video made me buy the 6D for 1200$ on a sale and even with it having a front focussing that got solved by re-adjusting the AF Sensor via warranty im really happy with it - i dont have to do an adapter fiddle for EVERY lense i own and the fact that i only own EF lenses makes the 6D the right choice eventhough its a bit on the "large" side - Although i can still use my old 77D OR buy.. say a fuji xt30 for "travel" if its too much to carry. - Oh and past me, there is going to be a R5 and R6 soon end of this year so look out for thems!
Oh and the RP uses the same battery as the 77D and there is a reason why i have 4 and was constantly recharging them especially in cold weather while the 6D ones.. yea i have 3 but on a shoot i rarely use more than one, and thats starting at like 70% charge... those 5D/6D / R batteries are real heavy duty things - for once totally worth the absurd canon OG battery price :D
I am currently deciding between the Canon EOS RP and the Sony A7 II. I don't shoot video so I need it just for stills and none of the videos could help me decide. If anyone could help me sort this out I would be really grateful.
Sony lenses are more expensive....
Comparing Eos R focus points to a DSLR focus points is nonsense. With live view on the 6D II you can achieve a similar "5 billions focus points" or whatever results
I don't know why but I still dislike the idea of mirrorless. I would take a 6d/5d any day over a mirrorless camera.
You forgot to consider 3rd party glass... not all 3rd party glass will work on the Eos RP adapter... if you're in a budget that is important
What a coincidence Jared! Exactly one year after your video, I am looking to replace my current Canon setup from many years ago. I looked at the 80D, 90D, 77D and the EOS 6D Mark II as well. I don't really mind the continuous shooting speed but care more about the WIFI functionality, UHS-II support, 143 AF points, touch and drag feature which looked so useful in real life scenarios, official support for EF lenses using a mount, DIGIC-8 for an updated image processing, much lighter, less bulky and yes, I would probably buy another spare battery considering the small size (1040mAh or about 250 shots).
Thanks for this easy comparison video!
Jared made a mistake on the 6d Mark ii. It actually does come with Bluetooth and NFC, so you know.
Maybe a strange question but when talking about video in cameras these days we refer to 1080p and 60fps. I understand the "p" in 1080p has a specific meaning but why do we say "p" in 60p when it's 60fps? Doesn't the "p" just stand for per? I'm no video guru so maybe I'm way off on this but 60fps means 60 Frames Per Second, correct? Why do people say 60p?????
Google Interlaced vs. Progressive Scan and you will understand what "p" stands for. It's not about the frames per seconds.
Interesting....
I can see the benefit of using the sensor to set the focus point, means no lens calibration errors etc, so presumably the mirrorless body will return a greater number of sharp in focus images compared to a DSLR? I really like the idea of sliding my thumb around on the rear screen to set the focal point whilst using the EVF, that's really cool and way faster than focus and recompose, which is what I mostly do now (I use a canon OES 6D mki) and I'm undecided between these two bodies to add to my bag.
you are the reason for my choice to get canon 6D mark II man xD
your autofocus comparison is not valid. While 6D only have 45 points, they are using old method and all 45 is cross point, and its very great with 1 dual cross point in the middle.
Also when you are using LCD, both af performance i think basically the same..
While RP doesnt have optical vf.
I still choose 6D mk ii, they are more mature product through years of development, while RP and R is still new here.. maybe in next 3 or 4 years i can completely change to EOS R system, while i still enjoy using 5D4 without any problem til now after 3 years
The overt stepson generically waste because glider proximately frighten like a curly sentence. calculating, high-pitched citizenship
One thing about these cameras that you didn't address at all, is something that concerns me greatly. I have a "Dust Pump" otherwise known as Cannon's 100-400L f4.5-5.6 Series I Lens and I am deeply concerned about sensor cleaning, I presently shoot with a Canon 70 D and I am forever cleaning the sensor. does having no mirror in front of the sensor on the Canon EOS RP mean the sensor will be even more prone to dust spots, if not even more so because of the larger sensor?
Minus a check mark on the RP for no GPS !
Just listened to this dude for the first time. While reasonably informative, his presentation is jarring, loud and drowns information. Slow down, tone it down and simmer down and you'll be okay. 1.17M subscribers? Really?
Please check out his other videos......he grows on you......HONEST!!!
I don't care about video so the RP was a no brainer for me, really easy to take with me spontaneously, whereas I'd leave a bigger camera at home for casual day trips.
I upgraded from my canon t6 to the 6DMii last August and am quite please with it. When the rp was first announced it was really tempting to switch with the adapter and everything included but the more research I did the better my current camera looked. The major drawbacks for me were no top mount lcd, not a lot of external buttons for adjustments on the fly, the lower FPS, and the much smaller battery was what really killed it for me. The only thing the RP really has over the 6DMii is the auto focus and the evf.
I have a great stable of EF lenses so the change does not make sense for me. Also, the 6DMark2 takes excellent photos for me. I like the bigger body.
that RP battery. Jesus!
The Canon 90D does 10fps! And 11fps in live view mode.
And is not a full frame camera.... and requires top shelf glass. 2 different ball parks.
With the firmware update and price drop,
I'm thinking about getting the RP...
AND it's commign from a guy who got a shiny X-T3 only a few months back ^^'
I just ordered one
Go for it!
Is 6D markii much better than 80D? I mean, for studio photos and low light photography
Full frame vs APS-C, it's obvious.
@@enaje3rd yea, but what exactly is the difference between images of those two?
I prefer the 6DII because of more direct control options, and more fps for Dog action shots. By the way the 6DII has blutetooth too.
And NFC to boot!!!
I bought a rp in mid 2020, and don’t regret it one bit. I upgraded from a T7i which I bought holiday season of 2019, to upgrade from my super ancient xti. The rf ecosystem is very enticing moving forward.
How is it going so far? I own a t7i and thinking about upgrading to the rp. Have you noticed an improvement in quality?
its about mirrorless and DSLR , if you completely ready for EVF then go for RP otherwise 6D ii is awesome camera .
(sorry about my bad english) Well... I really love your videos, but now, the most part of it is about gear.Its all about buy, and buy, and buy. Lenses, camera bodies, etc. And we all know that photography are not about it. Its even too captalistic, you know, in a dangerous way.
Sebastião salgado, Irving Penn, Henri Cartier Bresson, Vivian Maier and a lot of another photographers never gets a equipment so good or tech as the ones that we use. (I know the quality of film, medium format and old lenses - the point here is this crazy technological capitalism).
Here in Brazil - third world is especially hard to buy good equipments! Here's everything is so expensive, that we have to "work with we have".
Well, peace!
(never stop saying THE L MOUNT ALLIANCE!)
Take up Golfing.....that will really gull you, as you play next to all those rich captalists out on the green.....lol. Just make sure to take your trusty 6d Mark ii with you....for some great golf shots!!!
"If you want a chodier camera.."
“You get the best of both worlds..” Now that song is stuck in my head. 😂
Honestly, Sony will always be a win for me, they just need a flip screens on more cameras.
midnight oil's where its at
