@@coppensbram Yes, it is, and also not always, as it turned out that produces a substantial color shift in the whites when filming screens (iPads, MacBooks, iPhones, etc.) Any solutions, other than buying the standard adapter as well?
Hmmm an ND filter will always shift colors, maybe apart from the more expensive ones… Can’t you just tweak the white balance and color temps in Final Cut afterwards? And then save it as a preset. Or even better, hold a white paper or color card next to the screen in the beginning of your shot, so you can map WB and color to it in post in Final Cut!
@@coppensbram Hey, thank you so much for these suggestions! I really appreciate it! Now that you mentioned I think it may be due to forgetting to use my white card to set the WB before the shot. I'll try everything else you mentioned, though I'm not using Final Cut. I am a Premiere user (I know it's such a shame, lol). I wish you nothing but success in the new 2024! You are one of the dopest channels. Your videos helped me pick the r7 and the Sigma, and now I am considering getting a second, though I have other things to invest in. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos! Thanks again!
You can manually close down the shutter for changing lenses by manually initiating sensor cleaning and then turning off the camera. The shutter will stay down.
Nice workaround 😊 however not very handy to do every time you want to switch lenses… I usually just hold the camera sensor down when changing- reducing the possibility of dirt and dust catching on.
Please say first what you shoot. If you do wildlife then you need to put énfasis to rolling shutter, buffer, pre-capture, af-c and subject recognition for wildlife.For landscape you need to take other features in consideration. So comparing feature per feature does not make sense.
Yes indeed - makes sense 😊 I shoot video professionally and in terms of photography, portrait, landscape, street and casual. If you do wildlife or birds, get the R7. But then you’d already know you want that aps-c sensor for reach, better shutter etc. Comparing feature by feature definitely makes sense as you need to consider the sum of the parts in order to get the best for your needs 😉
For social events like weddings, which one is better for photos? It would be a good idea to have an R8 as the main one and a secondary R7, or an R8 as the main one and a RP as the secondary one. Thanks in advance!
For weddings or other professional work, I’d go with the R7 instead of the R8 because of the dual SD card slots and longer battery life. However… I’d actually recommend you to go for the R6 mark II instead. That is the one to invest in for pro work!
@@coppensbram Thank You! Update I found an incredible deal and purchased the R8. The idea of needing the R8 was because in events the R7 fell a little short in ISO since at ISO 3200 at night it lost a lot of detail. Now, I don't know if I did the right thing by buying the R8 and if I should use it as the main one taking into account that it doesn't have the double slot, although so far I have never had a memory fail and at the beginning when I bought it it only used one slot.
@victorchay12 ahhh I see. In your case the R8 will do just fine! It will definitely be better for low light than the R7! Just get a couple additional batteries and you’ll be set! 😎 Same here - no card fails yet 🤞
I currently have the R8 and am wanting to get a second body. I like having 2 bodies to avoid constantly changing lenses. I am undecided as to whether to get another R8 or to get the R7. The pricing is similar. I don't use video much. My photography ranges from sport, concerts/shows (low light), wildlife, family. Your advice would be greatly appreciated.
I’d probably opt for another R8 in your case. You’ll be able to use the same batteries etc. Although, the R7 might be a good addition for wildlife - you’ll get more reach out of your lenses. The R8 is definitely better for low light. If you could stretch your budget, you might want to take a look at the R6 mark II. That’s basically a step up from the R8! And an ideal combo 😎
Definitely the R7, will give you much more reach with the aps-c sensor and a higher megapixel count - so you can crop in more in post! Hope this helps 😎
If you want the R7 to shoot birds in Flight you're going to have terrible banding in ES. The other problem with the R7 is it tends to lose focus when tracking birds in flight. On a burst shot of 60 shots you might lose anywhere between 40 and 50 at times. I travel sometimes across the state to shoot Eagles in Flight and when I was using this camera I was losing hundreds of shots a day and it was frustrating because sometimes they would be my best shots. I do have a love-hate relationship with this camera as I wanted to work. The R8 on the other hand is another camera that's in our family because my wife shoots a daily side-by-side with me. Her biggest issue is battery life out in the field. Apart from that she gets great low light performance she gets great images but she does not get the crop factor. The R7 has image stabilization as the ra does not but the R7s image stabilization is horrendous at times. Both of them have their pluses and minuses it just depends on which minus that you want to deal with on a daily basis. Unfortunately for me I still have the R5 and currently purchase the R6II, so when the R7 starts to act up in the field I can just grab one of the other two.. I actually just compared them all recently.
I bought the r7 because it had 1/2 a stop better highlight retention DR in clog3, making it very close to fx30 in 4kFine24 and 30. But the overall I never use the r7 over my other cameras. But the r7 wins for bird video and bird photos
Regarding the R8's lower battery life performance: you can easily attach the battery block from the Canon RP.
It works perfectly
Another great one. Went with the R7, and man I couldn't be happier. I also got the 18-35 the internal ND adapter, and an awesome cage.
That’s a killer combo! 😃 it’s so easy with the internal ND isn’t it

And turn off True Tone and night shift on the screens too 😉

Regarding the EOS R7, what is the best noise reduction software?
I just use Lightroom. The new AI noise removal is awesome! 😎

@@kimhofmann7040 you’re very welcome :-) the R8 is an awesome little camera!
cool !!! Thanks !
Agreed, good comparison 👍🏻
Thanks! 😊
which is better for bird n wildlife photography
Definitely the R7, will give you much more reach with the aps-c sensor and a higher megapixel count - so you can crop in more in post! Hope this helps 😎
Useful video! 👍 Thank you Bram! I have preferred to buy R8. If i took wildlife photos mostly i would definetely prefer R7
Thank you for the kind words! The R8 is a really nice compact camera! It’s quickly becoming the one I pick up the most 😊

R8 - small low battery. Problem with overheating. I prefer R7.
There're no any problems with R8 overheating.
R8 = Image and Video Quality
R7 - Durable camera physical
Choose whatever u want 😀
@@NeezhomPhotomalaya I don't see neither of them durable physically
@@stanislavmikhailiukov1005 Yes not that durable. I only compared both two only (regarding to topic), not other cameras. 😀
@@stanislavmikhailiukov1005 There are so many people complaining about the overheating. This is why I am not getting the r8.
Which is better for video R7 or R8
Here you go :-) Canon R7 vs R8: Which is the Best? Ultimate Comparison!

R8 hands down 💯

Yup! For birding things, the R7 is the way to go! 😎
R7 double card slot
and what about the R7 + a speedbooster ? 😅
Good point! However… that won’t work with RF lenses though. But still a valid solution if you’ve got EF glass!
