Stoked for this new part of my career. Had no idea Canon would be releasing such a beast in the R5 or that the C200 would be as affordable as it is currently. It looks like this is going to change so much for so many. Amped!

Update: I bought a used C200 for just under $4,200 USD. Pumped. Now praying every day that the R5 is less than $4000, but I'm not hopeful on that one.
Eric Floberg thoughts on buying a new C200B for now $4000? I have a 1D X Mark II (with James Miller/Atomos CLOG3) and it’s been amazing, but since I have a 7 inch monitor and other rigging, makes sense to get the 200B right?
Honestly, I don't think anyone should buy a 2+ year old camera brand new. There's just so much savings to have with getting a used one, and almost no reason to pay the extra. Totally your call on if you'd rather get the C200B. I wanted all of the bells and whistles because I plan on using the top handle, arm, & monitor to rig out my R5 as either an A or B cam for specific circumstances. But, now that I'm looking online, seems to be really difficult to find a C200B used..If you could find a price like mine, I would just get the C200 and keep/sell the accessories.
hahaha. I think the R5 will be more than $4k for sure man. Gotta pay that "Canon Tax".
Hey can you tell me the price for what you selling your 1DX mark II? So I can see if I can afford to buy from you if you planning on selling it to me.
The only thing I’ll miss out on selling my 1DX ii is the 120FPS otherwise I’m ready for new tech
I always like the thought too, that sometimes you just want some new gear. New gear can inspire and re-spark a flame. Or maybe I’m just trying to justify it for myself. Love your videos. Thanks for staying safe. Enjoy being out of the city.
TOTALLY agree. Thanks so much, Jason!
You know what feels better than selling 😁😏?
Me:(whispers in your ear) Free Give Away😉😎
lololol
lol this is dank
Grats on the c200. Always enjoy your videos, fam.
your rigged out Mark II is actually so sick, thinking I might need to do the same for style points!
i have been shooting on sony and recently also picked up a black magic and it really has inspired me to shoot way more. something about having a dedicated cinema camera really makes a difference for me!
Love your videos. You have such a calm and relaxing style. I'm keen for the Canon R5 too so you can keep your Mark 2 :)
Thank you for another excellent review!
I love my 1DXII, it never lets me down, however I shoot mostly stills. We’ll see if the R5 changes my mind...
Me too just upgraded for my stills from the 1Dx to the ii. I’m curious to see what the R5 comes in at but prob btwn $4-$4,500. 🤞🏽
Great vid man! :) i just bought my 1Dx Mark II and im super happy! Uppgrade from my 6d Mark II, just makes me want to create more as you said! Thats what its all about!
Yes!! Enjoy it! I've absolutely LOVED using it!
Eric Floberg 😁🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
C200 +R5 is for sure great choice! Excited for you man! Selling my 6d2 and buying R5 to just keep that one and R as a backup
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
I can't get enough of that Intro! Music and choice of shots were awesome!
I would LOVE to buy the camera!! The look that footage has is simply amazing!!
Eric! I just picked up a used C200 for 4400 and couldn't be happier! I pair it with my Canon EOS R and it's a great workflow! Nice!
You just reminded me that I have to run more, so tomorrow morning I wake up early to run a little. Thanks men :)
...noticed in your video that you mentioned getting an R5 with a metabones adapter to use the EF glass on the R body. Canon makes an EF to RF adapter specifically designed for the R mount, so you don't need third-party gear for this.
I want an R5, I love my EOS R, but for image and codec on my Blackmagic is so much easier to work with in post, and still looks great!
I just went for the C200 over the P6K. Both are good but I needed that functionality like AF and XLRs
I'll never forget the first wedding you shot with the 1DX. Sad to see it go, but alsoooo hello R5!!!
Dude. That was SUCH a blast. Honestly, so sad to see it go too, but so amped for all of the newness.
Hi Eric. You'll like your new C200. Built in ND's to start with. Pity about the codec gap but the 8 bit is remarkably good for 8 bit and the Raw Lite gives wonderful quality at your price point. Enjoy! Stay safe. BobUK.
I do only stills and I was also looking for a backup to my 5D MK4. So I bought an RP and I did not like it at all. I missed the sound of the mirror and the image quality and shutter speed were not that great. I also have 4 EF L lenses and I did not want to get rid of them, because they do a fantastic job. So I sold the RP and I was still looking for an alternative with better shutter speed for sports photography when I came across a second hand 1DX MK2. I got it for € 2,000 and had some repairs done (Canon support did a great job here :-) ). This is the best camera I ever had! Great image quality, comparitively low noise at high ISO, incredible shutter speed, sharp, fast and precise AF etc. I would not sell it until I buy the MK 3 one day, when it gets affordable one day. I do not want to consider mirrorless cameras right now because they do not offer the required shutter speed for sports. If I still had the money, I would buy the 1DX MK3 without hesitating.
Sold 1 out of 3 back in July in anticipation of the MKIII.
Dang! Currently i have a c100 mki and i love the fact that it is all in one. But i would love the hybrid option. My stills camera is the 5D3 and again i love it. We shall see if Covid lets me earn enough this year to buy a 1dx mkii and have some fun!
Yes! Go with the C200! It’s my daily driver and I’ve recently paired it with a 1DXii as a B-cam but also wanted a still cam as I do photography on the side! And you’re right, 1DXii are dropping in price as I got mine on eBay with an offer I couldn’t refuse. My workflow is usually pumping out 1080p content for corporate and government projects so speed is a factor. The C200 wrapper is easy to edit with also and when the time comes, the C200 will be still be relevant with it’s Raw Light...great video and good luck with the upgrade! Cheers from Saipan 🤙🏾
Justin Rohrer $3,200 (good deal?)…shutter count less than 7,000 and mostly used it for video…guy had to let it go to recover some cost after getting a C300 mkiii.
Currently shooting on a 6D Mark ii, I am thrilled about what is coming out soon
Seriously. If the R5 is $3500, it's going to dominate the industry.
Just bought a C200 last week!!!!!!!! It's amazing!!
Loved my 1DX MKII, but it was a season I moved out of. I love my Black Magic Pocket 4k. Beautiful dynamic range and at the price. Rigging is a necessity, but not a bad thing. Black Magic's BRAW is insane! Seriously stepped my game up in the cinema world. Have you considered the Ursa Mini Pro 4.6 G2? Such a phenomenal choice, especially when paired against the C200.
Insightful
My advice is definitely the C200 over the pocket 6K. Owned both. Built in NDs, dual XLR, great preamps. Matches great with my 1DXIII. However, that advice is based on my shooting style and experience owning both (and pocket 4K). Your mileage may vary. Loved the video as always. 👍
Lovely video, gave great perspective of what is happening in Canon world right now. Can you may be elaborate more about why you did not go with Black Magic Pocket 6k. Thanks. :)
Look into Zcam if your considering a Black Magic 6k.
I’m so new I’m looking at upgrading my t4i to an 80D 😂
Rachel Simmons don’t worry. The 80d is still a great camera. For stills and video. I have it too since 3 years or so and didn’t find the camera yet to exchange it. And I work as an photographer videographer. Fear doesn’t necessarily matter that much. Keep on creating.
That's awesome! Keep going after it! Like I said, as long as you're following basic photography and filmmaking techniques, you can make your photos and films look amazing with any camera these days. :) Thanks for watching!
chaim junger appreciate it! Thank you!
Eric Floberg thanks for being awesome
I took some of my best selling stock photos with 80D, still great camera to work with. Just keep shooting
Great video! hypothetically if the mk3 was out when u bought the mk2, Do you think that if it was a mk 3 you'd still be using it?
So happy I sold mine over a year ago.
Excellent
Im getting a 1dx mk2 for sure! And a sony a7s3 the R5 R6 no way...
I'd be curious where you sell your gear? I've been thinking about selling some of my gear and possibly moving to Canon now that they're listening better to their customers for video!
Hey Eric. Heads up if you go c200 route. The menu for the c200 is more complex, it is a bit confusing for mics inputs selections, and little quirks like the marking sure SD slot doors are closed all the way. Make sure you plan some time to learn it before going on a shoot.
As for the BMPCC6K (my B Cam), it has much easier menus to work with and the ability to have external HD recording is great for longer recording. The issue here is more physical with the terminal covers being annoying and in the way of the tightly packed mini connections. It chews through the little LP-E6N internal batteries making rigging the unit with a vmount battery a necessity. External monitor will likely be needed when rigged. All said, it was about 650 or so on the cost equation. It also adds to the set up time.
To do over again, I probably would have just sprung for a second c200.
does anyone here have any suggestion where to sell my 1dx mk ii as well?
i just got the 6D mark 2 but i wouldn't mind having a 1DX Mark2.
I remember the moment of selling my 5d mkIII, very sentimental moments, but really worth it. Now time for mirrorless ;)
Can't WAIT
@@EricFloberg I know the feeling!
What did you get after you sold the 5d mk3? I still have a 5d mk3, for about 7 or 8 years, but for some reason never really loved it. Had a 1d mk2 before, which I absolutely loved.
Hey! I switched to Sony A7iii. It was hard and took time to get used to and had moments I wanted to go back, but now I understand how good that decision was.
@@JacekSopotnicki good to know. Thanks for the info. I've thought about that camera as well. Now, however, Canon seems to be getting it's act together with its mirrorless options, so I might try another Canon out.
I will buy it!
nice choice of intro songs.
I still rock my sl2 lol. It’s all I know how to use and still haven’t even learned it that well
5th Element Entertainment omg me too!!! Sl2 is a great little tool!
Yup. No need to update if you don't need to!
That little camera is fantastic. I’m using it for my overhead cam and just a secondary one to my EOS R.
Benj Haisch I know!!! It goes with me everywhere!
Penelope Checo indeed. It’s been great to me
Awesome choice. Wish i could get the r5 specs are out of this world hahaha.🤣😂🤣
Pumped! Keep working and saving up! I think next year will be the year where the majority of people buy the R5.
What’s the soundtrack at the opening?
You don't need a Metabones adapter! I've used Canon EF glass on an Eos R with its own adapter and it works perfectly fine!
At least on EOS R, the Metabones Speedbooster helps reduce the crop when shooting 4k video, though if he's waiting for the R5, this won't matter.
I'm a 1DX Mark 2 owner in the market for a C200...I bought the 1DX Mark 2 when I was still doing a lot of still as well as video, but I'm now focusing 100% on video so the C200 just makes so much more sense for me - especially for the built-in NDs and XLR input. I'm tempted to keep the 1DX mark 2 as b-cam or because it's so easy to throw on a Ronin S when you don't want to rig out a Movi Pro...but, like you, also very keen to see what Canon will do with the R5. It will be hard to hold onto the 1DX Mark 2 then and makes sense to sell whilst it still has some value!
Yeah, basically thinking the C200 will be a studio/commercial and the R5 for everything else.
Eric Floberg don’t think you could go wrong with that setup!
Sold two of my Sony A7riii and like you, praying that the R5 is
that font though >>>
I’m hoping, HOPING the R5 has a better auto focus distancing like what the 5DIV has with the cross types
Sick of the vertical only :( miss a lot of good shots with the focus and the focus distancing
What are you currently shooting on?
@@EricFloberg 5DIV and EOS R at the moment, process of selling the EOS R to get a second 5D aha, unless you want to buy my R ;)
We’re in the same boat with a 1DX mk ii 2 5d mk iv’s and a Pocket 6K. So incredibly pumped to switch to the R5!!! For the switch for your cinema cam. How do you feel about losing full frame if you switch to the C200? We got the pocket 6K for similar reasons and have really enjoyed it, although the variety of crops is interesting haha
SO pumped! Honestly, the 4k on the 1DXii is already a 1.3x crop, so I can't imagine I'm going to care that much. I've seen what the C200 can do, and I'm pretty much completely convinced at this point haha
what microphone are you useing .. also im interested in your lighting setup. thanks in advanced
Just did a BTS on all of that over on my patreon if you're interested in signing up! - www.patreon.com/ericfloberg

@@EricFloberg good to know!
The algorithm caught me slippin last video but I’m back
MY MAN
Eric! Which lenses will you be selling and what platform will you be selling them thru? Prices?
Not sure yet, but probably my 50mm f/1.2 & maybe my 85mm f/1.2 & 135mm f/2. Probably won't be selling them until June, but keep an eye out on my instagram stories! :)
I am still a Canon DSLR shooter at this point with the 90D, but I am pretty sure this will be my last DSLR as I migrate over to mirrorless with my next upgrade, but sorry to say probably across brand too from Canon to Sony. Why? I am a stills guy that shoot birds. I may film a couple of clips of birds from time to time, but I am not from a younger generation that love shooting videos. And for shooting birds, Canon simply has left out a huge gap in their lens line-up and that is they simply don't have any super zooms. I am already using the Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3, great lens for the money, but the BEST super zoom right now in my opinion is Sony's 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G lens. I imagine it would be like a Canon L lens version of the Sigma. Plus, at the end of the day I am just a hobbyist, as such I just don't see myself dropping US$13K on a a huge prime like the 600mm f/4 or 800mm f/5.6. Then, you pair that up with an A7R IV, that should be a pretty sweet setup.
I just hope that R5 would be affordable enough.. If so then I will probably sell all the Fuji gear to buy c200 & R5. But I’m still in between Fuji and Canon story. It’s such a struggle to peak a camera our days!
I've been HEAVILY thinking about the pocket 6K for my commercials work and maybe try it at a wedding and see how it goes...but even being able to have 4k or 1080p in proress 10 bit with a log pp would be INSANE...for alot of the stuff a one man run and gun team does 10 bit with log profiles are about the equivalent to RAW for us, gives all that room to play with color grades and we are already use to shooting correctly in the field when I comes to white balance and ISO so RAW wouldn't be the used alot I don't think...and not to mention RAW files are so freaking huge, it would take at least 10 TB to do one wedding in RAW 😂 (lord I hope no one is doing that)
All that said I think for what you maybe want from a video camera I think the pocket 6k would fit your needs better...all the 1080p and 4k codecs shoot 10bit, you can use 120p slow mo if you want...and if you want RAW you can use 6k up to 50fps which is incredible
Totally understand, and I was actually leaning towards the Pocket 6k, but my friend got the C100markii, and we shot this video with that. As soon as I saw the combo of autofocus with direct XLR input + a teleprompter, I was sold. Knowing that the C200 has even beefier specs than the C100ii, and having a lot of confirmation from friends that it's wonderful to use, it pretty much solidified why I wanted it. Might get a Pocket 6k as a B cam down the road though!
@@EricFloberg dude I got a Canon c100 mkii when I was in Chicago in January and its INSANE how good the picture still looks 😂 and if you get the c200 you get built in NDs which are freaking amazing....you get it baby 🙏
Why not the 1dx mark iii?
nice video bro! greetings! I will change Canon to Sony soon!, but maybe I will be back on Canon on the future hahah
Thanks for watching, Fran!!
@@EricFloberg Always bro! You know! Keep doing vids! Love it!
Go with the pocket 6K when you get to that point. The choice in codecs will be much nicer than the c200.
Honestly, a huge reason I want to stick with the C200 is for face detection AF for my youtube videos. I know the Pocket cameras have terrible auto focus, and I'll need something reliable, plus the C200 has multiple XLR inputs as opposed to the mini XLR on Pocket.
Eric Floberg all true! If the autofocus is the biggest selling point then c200 all the way. I just used to own a c200, which was why I was suggesting going the other route haha.
I was hoping to get a job this summer to afford a new RF lens but doesn’t seem likely so I gotta figure out a way to start selling prints or just my images in general
Hustle baby!! It's also okay to just wait until next year too! Surely they'll be some used stuff on the market at that point, and the prices will be a lot more approachable. Hang in there!!
Eric Floberg omg thank you for responding, I may have just found your channel a month ago but you’ve already become a major photography inspiration
The real thing I'm surprised by is how expensive it was, my uncle bought the 1dx2 second hand with a 160gb CFast card for €3000 also about a year ago, today they still sell for over €3000 used so it hasn't lost any value, pretty nice upgrade over the original 1dx with autofocus
We really only use the camera for stills, video is not a priority at all and if we do record video it's in 1080p
Mine has definitely lost value in the last year..about $1000 actually, and I think it'll continue to drop now that the R5 is about to be announced. It'll still be a great pickup for someone who is still invested heavily in EF glass though.
I get the desire to clear the head on this subject. But I'm thinking it's a tail you'll always be chasing, good luck
Wow, that is some dollar-heavy step up. Don't wanna ruin your positivity, but jduging from the price of the 1dxIII and the comparable specs of the R5, I doubt it'll be below 4.000 US$. Always worth a prayer though. ;) Suddenly I don't feel so bad for crushing weddings with a 1N and a 1V. :D When you know those cameras aren't made anymore it kills all "should I upgrade?" thoughts. ;) Keep your chanel, man. It's inspiring!
I had one and the thing was just too big. My back liked me a lot better when I dumped it 😭
1DX Mark ii or C200?
@@EricFloberg The 1DXii. Without a grip/cage the thing was terrible to lug around.
@@coloradoweddingphotographer Ah, didn't really bother me all that much. I'm assuming the C200 will probably be even more heavy, but the weight honestly just doesn't bother me. I just get sucked in to shooting.
I'll wait.. the R6, probably cheaper ahaha. Also, why are you thinking about the metabones adapter for the R5? Just for the fact that's a speedbooster (more light, yeah) or something else (since there won't be any 4K crop and the 79€ canon ef adapter works perfectly)?
why the C200 and not the C300?
Black white and tan on a black backdrop while talking about gear? Glad I could inspire 😂
I just rebuked you via text.
I'm eyeing that R5 but that price tag vetter be reasonable cos ya boy is struggling. If you're hiring or taking on an inter lmk Eric hahaha
Have you thought about the Z Cam E2-F6 or S6 rather than the Black Magic Pocket 6K or the C200?
Someone actually DM'd me, telling me about the Z Cam S6. With the build out, it would be comparable in price, but I just want a camera that takes Canon EF natively, has face detection AF, and XLR inputs. It's weird, but the majority of footage I shoot is by myself for TH-cam and Patreon, so the C200 seems to be the perfect fit for a studio camera. Thanks for watching!
Eric Floberg yeah true, XLR audio seems to be a pretty big reason people are shying away from Z Cam’s line up. Your not the first TH-cam that prefers the EOS Cinema Line to the Z Cams due to XLR. Also, I love your videos keep up the awesome work
I imagine the price of the IDX Mark II will drop drastically since we can get a brand new R6 for 2500$ which is pretty much exactly the same camera with better autofocus!
Hey I’m a graphic designer who has found himself in a photography heavy position. I use the cannon 5D Mark iv for work but I want to buy my own camera for personal projects/freelance opportunities. I do a lot of sports photography and I have been looking at the 1DX Mark II for a while but I need to do more research. I want something that’s great for stills but still shoots 120fps. What do you think about the stills capabilities of this camera and what do I need to look into to decide if this is the camera for me.
Oh, it's incredible. It would be a phenomenal choice for you!
This video is definitely you trying to explain to your wife investing 10k in new gear you actually don't need. Anyway, awesome videos and awesome photos, congrats! 👏👏🤣🤣
Lol, no it's not. I will essentially be paying $1000-$1200 for getting the used C200 I already purchased since making this video, after selling my 1DXii. It is a significant upgrade in quality, and will make my workflow wildly faster when making youtube and patreon videos, which is 80-90% of my work these days. As far as the R5s go, I've been waiting for that upgrade for over 2 years now, and if I care about upping the quality of my wedding films and all other work, that is a very sensible upgrade. I'm assuming I will spend around $6k at most out of pocket with the new R5s and a couple of lenses after selling my 5D4s and a couple of EF lenses. All in all, I can pay for all of these upgrades with simply shooting one wedding. Thanks for watching!
@@EricFloberg I was just joking! Don't need to justify your business expenses to me or anyone. Congratulations on buying the C200, I had the opportunity to use one for a work, is a brilliant camera, easy to use and with amazing output.
Filipe Faria sorry 🤦🏻♂️ I’m terrible at reading sarcasm. Thank you!!
Hey eric, Like you, I'm a film dude from Chicago, and in a men running group which I've been documenting for about 6 months. I shot with Canon C200 and the EOSR both are great together from my perspective. Go over to Magnanimous media rent it for a day a do a test shot. 300 miles a month, wow I thought when I was doing a 100 that was good, now you put me to shame.
The second song name?
I was going to sell my entire Sony set up and go for the 1dx just because I’ve always wanted it but my A7III has most of the specs already. I was gonna go for the Eos r but no dual card slot and no 120 deterred me. Looked into the c200 but would like to still have a camera to do stills. Not sure why having a Sony and a canon don’t appeal to me. Once R5 comes out, Sony prices are gonna drop 😂 main reason to switch to canon is for canon colors
Yeah, the specs, the glass, the dual card slots., (hopefully) the price are all going to be the reasons why everyone snags an R5.
Eric Floberg R5 is the Sony killer. Wonder when it’ll release. I was gonna switch to canon because the lenses were 1/2 the price of GMaster lens but seeing that the RF lenses are just as expensive
Eric Floberg I’m hearing that the R5 is gonna be around $6700?? I mean I’m not surprised because they would just undercut their own 1dx III sale if it was under 4k. www.newsshooter.com/2020/05/15/canon-r5-price-listed-in-australia/
Basically bought 1dx II since everyone was getting it and basically had it for awhile, realized you jumped in the game too late since few months later 1dx III came out, and now 90% of TH-camrs are jumping in the EOS R train, and you learned your lesson and want to jump on the EOS R5 train as soon as it comes out so you are not to be too late in the game again.
I don’t make decisions on my gear based on what other people are doing. I make the decisions from what I think will serve me best and be best for my business.
tbh that gopro footage was pretty sexy
For me, I don’t really care about the 1DX. I love the EOS R and yeah, I am hella excited about the R5. I’m hoping to sell my 6D towards it. Haven’t touched it since I got the R. Definitely would be happy with two R5.
Yup. I'm going two R5s all the way, but I'd love to have the C200 as a studio camera for YT and Patreon. :)
Where would be a good website or place to sell a 1DX Mark II? I'm just curious... and what would be a good price to ask if it is in Excellent condition (bought less than a year ago and barely used)?
I would try to sell it to someone you know, second party through someone you know, or somewhere like Facebook marketplace. Anywhere around $3000 is pretty fair for a used 1DXii right now I think.
Hey dad, I like the idea of you with a BMPCC6k. But a C200 would be dope too. Love you bye.
Yeah, the face detection AF is a must at this point, but the XLR inputs are gonna be a life saver. Love you, son.
I get a vibe the R5 will be between 5100-5999
I was a Canon user Before the Crop ones and Specs was not amazing but I created Great Photos with it Until I need to Upgrade and join a Wedding video team they use Sony Full frame and Crop so A Sold every canon that I have And For awhile I use Sony Also Crop sensor Because Im Stuck but Soon Im Moving To Fujifilm because I can Afford some lens plus I love the size and Crop sensor look but yeah Gear doesn’t matter
Yeah, my studio mates have fuji stuff and they love it! Also amazing hybrid cameras!
C200B is only $3999 body, if you already have a monitor 🤷🏽♂️ very cheap 4k 12bit raw
How much ? I’ll buy
I say c200 for sure. I own a rigged out bmpcc6k and live in Lakeview, so if you want to take it for a spin, let me know. Also, from the same hometown as Matt Day - he's the homie.
Especially if you already own cfast media - they make some good solutions for SSD too.
What's the advantage of a Metabones EF-RF adapter over Canon's own adapter?
Great question! I don't know. I'll have to ask around and test. My buddy Kyle here says he prefers the Canon one.
@@EricFloberg I would go with the canon one with NDs, best choice (if you can afford it) and you get 100% of AF performance (I am not sure about the metabones but I doubt it can be as efficient)
I got the Canon one with my EOS R and it's absolutely flawless, I would definitely recommend it over the Metabones - Looking forward to the new setup, Eric 😏
@@87shots I think there is a metabones speedbooster for RF mount to "counterattack" the big crop in 4k, and it seems to work flawlessly (plus it gives a super nice ultra wide 1080p with vignetting)
Galterius i didn't know that!
How much for it ???
I hope you’re computer can handle 8K footage because buying a camera and only planning to use 4K don’t make sense. To be honest I’ve been curious about the black magic 6K
Eh, I would rarely, if ever use the 8K on the R5, but if it's $3500-$4000 in price, it will almost certainly be the best hybrid photo/video mirrorless camera in the market outside of being able to shoot in 8K. The pocket 6K is a wonderful camera. It just totally depends on what you primarily shoot! :)
5d mark 4 is 😍😍
Agreed. Send it in to get the C-Log upgrade!
Definitely need to send my 5D4 in as well.
I sold my 1DX Mark II in 2018 for the C200. 1DX Mark II is awesome for what it is but C200 has many more advantages. C200 takes stills and time lapses BTW.
Personally I prefer the Canon EF-RF adapter since it's first party rather than going third party with metabones. R5 look pretty sexy on paper though
Yeah, I'll definitely have to do my research. Haven't even thought about it. That was more so just a filler phrase, basically saying I'll get an adapter for all the EF glass still. Great to know. Thanks, dude!
@@EricFloberg Oh for sure dude! Let me know if you want to test mine out. Also they have an adapter that lets you use a drop in ND filter, I forget if you use them or not. Hope the kiddos arent driving you and Sabriah nuts haha
Hi my friend if you planning to buy R5 why do you still need C200 R5 will have better video capability than c200 I’m in the same situation I’m selling my 1DX mark ii but also I’m selling all EF glass to go all in RF also thinking about selling my PXW-FS7 because probably footage out of R5 will be much better this I’ll have to test before making that choice
Hi Eric! Great video as ever and so impressed on the running as well (making me feel guilty...). I bought the EOS R last March and the RF 24-105mm f4 L and it is just so good for stills and video. The 'tilty-flippy' screen makes shooting so much easier. Still have my 5D Mk III which I use quite a bit, but for the R-series, I would get the RF Control Ring Adapter. My EF glass just sings on that and with the advanced focusing apart from the extra length of lens + adapter, it feels like native glass. Looking at the R5 myself (price permitting) but top of the list is the RF 50mm f1.2 L, but the price is still pretty eye watering over here in the UK.
Do you still use your Sigma 24mm 1.4 much as I have a very similar lens collection to you apart from Sigma 50mm Art and 24mm TS-E rather than a 24mm 1.4?
Thanks for watching! Yup yup yup. Already sold on the that adapter since someone mentioned it earlier. Makes a lot more sense. I'm also eyeing the RF 50 f/1.2. I've used it on my friend's R, and holy crap..what an incredible piece of glass. I do still use the Sigma 24, but the autofocus can be sketchy from time to time. If you're using it to manually focus, it's phenomenal.
Eric - did you sell your mkii?
Actually haven’t yet with all of the R5 overheating issues 😞
Make a giveaway of this camera 😂
With so many video cameras out there why would you want to use a DSLR?? Canon offers a very impressive line of video cameras designed to for videography. They have equipment for the amateur like me, I chose a Canon Vixia HF 40. They retail for $1300.
If you're a serious amateur then they have the XA line for professional videographers/film makers. These camcorders retail from $1200 to $3500. If you're a cinematographer then the Cinema EOS line is for you. Many of these video cameras are designed to use the Canon EF series of lenses. Imagine that.
For what you pay for in a top of the line Canon DSLR you can buy one of Canon's Vixia or XA and have change left to buy other necessary equipment for your videography assignments.
I bought a pre-owned EOS 5D five years ago. It is such a clean copy you couldn't tell it from a new one in an unopened box. I also have the aforementioned Vixia. I refuse to upgrade to a DSLR that records video because I believe that requirement can be accomplished with my Vixia.
