I agree Kaka is truly a legend lst in America.
+David Nikon lost in America.

You should have a channel dedicated to your real world reviews. I like your format the best. I feel I am learning a ton about your review gear as well as your shooting process. The best review execution on the web. THX!
best production quality videos out there , and real world reviews are just awesome
+Cody Bonner Thanks a lot Cody, we agree with you.
+Cody Bonner Agreed, the production quality easily beats the vast majority of reality TV shows.
THIS is how one reviews a D5, not from an angry couch or using garbage lens to justify how a DX would be a better buy!
+mas921 You must of watched the same video as saying you wasted your money if you bought the D5 over the D500. Maybe if they knew how to use this camera then the negative comments would not be so much about it. I watch some videos from a photographer and his wife that loves to shoot birds (wild life) and I wanted so much to leave a comment do you know how to use this camera in a polite way as I following a bird photographer on Facebook and his images from the D5 are fantastic compare to what he showed on the D5 .. I really think it comes down to the user and I jumped off the DX format since the D300 and went Full Frame why do I want to go back... what is the reason?
+james .mannequindisplay yup exactly! THAT video of a "photographer and his wife". I agree it depends on the user, for myself I would get the D500 as I prefer the smaller and lighter weight and most importantly am a Hobbiest (i do not get paid for my pics). besides the d500 now is closing the gap between FX and DX in ISO noise. With same AF as D5, and enough FPS but lighter and 1.5x reach, it makes sense to jump back into DX!
+mas921 d500 due to size and weight for me.
mas921 Get the D750. An AWESOME FX camera, even cheaper than D500, high ISO performance equal or greater than D500. Better AF than the D810. FX is better, and the FX camera most people should get is the D750.
Valtteri bhaskar get the D750,
Not only was your review super thorough and full of information in a way that people can easily digest, your pictures are simply amazing. Keep up the good work guys!
Thanks Jared! Loved this review man. Can't wait to see your thoughts on the D500. I'm still waiting to upgrade my beloved D700.
Also, I love seeing how much and how successfully you've grown your channel, your business and your brand. Still keepin it real since the bedroom video days.
Incredible review! In-depth, thorough, honest, no bull and to top it all off, great photos! Despite the fact that it was 30 min, I sat through the whole thing because it was so good. There are TH-camrs who post 6 min reviews that instantly make me snore. But this was some next level shit. I can tell you guys put in a great deal of effort and I appreciate that.
This video was epic Jared! the best you ever did
That's a really great put down, right? Am I right? Right!
Fantastic review! Your production quality is really second-to-none!
Love your videos. Especially real world stuff so cool how you integrate so many Angles. And you talk through what you are asking yourself when shooting. I learn so much from you.
So nice to see you judge actual prints from the camera rather than just looking at them on the computer, you are right when you say you can't see many issues on the prints I have a A1 print that was taken on a 13 year D100 and looks great.
Great review, Jared! One can tell, you´re right in the middle of your element with the D5! Offering the RAW-files is an exceptional service, thanks!
Your real world review videos are by far my favorite form of reviews! Well done!
a 7000 Dollar camera on a 13000 Dollar lens makes 20000dollars.I bet not 10 people from the 261433 likes are gonna buy this stuff.
helthuismartin i have got a nikon d4 and d3s, with a 400mm lens, a 70-200mm lens and a 24-70mm lens. Expensive as fuck.
That's why we watch the videos. To enjoy a $20K rig, vicariously.
@@gewglesux What do you feel like you're accomplishing by lying on the internet? Does it make you feel better about yourself?
Not viable at all to buy, just rent. Even as professionals, I know photograhers who don’t own any camera gear and rent everything.
When it’s the client paying, you can afford to do that.
Buy a used Nikon d3 & Nikon 200-500 lens. Use crop mode at 750mm. Everything under 2000 dollars. Trust me I am photographer & I know ways to make budget cheaper. It will 99 percent of 20k camera when it comes to quality.
You can clearly appreciate Todds hand. Perfect sound, regarding it was windy, and Jared really sticks out thanks to the light set up. Really enjoyed it.
That was a tremendous review, Jared, and very much appreciated by all of us. I hope you get to do a similar review with the Canon EOS 1DX II as it will be very interesting to compare the two.The Nikon D5 really impresses, but I am glad it brought me back down to earth with image noise. I thought there would be absolutely zero noise at ISO 6400 (it does go into the ISO millions, after all) and there is almost as much as on cheaper consumer cameras. That makes me feel a lot better about my cameras now LOL.Even still, amazing camera and tremendously fast at everything it does. One other passing comment is that I have seen your photography skills grow and grow over a period and that's very impressive too!
+cooloox thank you.
Jared you are just the biggest inspiration in the business. Your reviews are priceless
Best review by far of this camera.
I would love Nikon to put the D810 sensor in the D5 body...
This is just spectacular, I love your real world reviews. Keep up the perfect work.
+Michal thanks Michal.
the BEST real world review you have produced.. subscriber for years
Hands down, bar none, the best review you've ever done. Good job!
+Darren Miles thanks Darren.
Nice job of providing lots of information and using the images that stand up to your tests!
Super in-depth review as always, great to see you showing how the images printed, too. It reminds me as a photographer that sometimes what someone wants isn't an image that looks perfect at a 1:1 zoom on a computer, but instead something good they can put on their mantle, or hang on their wall.
Cheers again, Mr. Fro :)
+Lachlan Harman thanks lachlan!!!!
Great RW D5 review Jared, these are the best, more please. Thank you and the team filming.
+Michael Faraday thanks Michael!!!! More on the way.
Great review, first out there. Thanks for taking the effort Jared! Look forward to more real world reviews like this! Cheesy background music though B-)
Awesome video, awesome camera, awesome review! This is a great one, Jared! Good job! While I will not get this camera ever, it still looks amazing!
Excellent work Jared. Keep up the good stuff!
I'm particularly impressed about the fact that you were able to push one of the ISO 10000 images and yet the image, when zoomed out, looked fine.
+John Su agree, thanks!!!
Great job Jared! I was very exited as well when I went out to test this camera myself. I'm not a brand photographer I have Canons and Nikons, but I've got to say, Nikon really nailed this time around with the auto-focusing and the sensor, the focusing tracking is unbelievable and the noise at high ISO is awesome, not to mention the other features. The out of focus situation you were mentioning is all about DOF and of course where the sensor picked the focus, remember the big glasses have a very shallow DOF especially when fully open, shooting bodies moving at high speed and limbs all over is not an easy situation. Again, great job, and thanks for sharing! Keep up with the good work!
+Really? thanks!!!
I'm grateful for the videos like this, I have a d7100 and can't afford the newest camera but you keep your editing open on the side and I can push my self and my gear to get the best images possible and know that even with the best camera and glass you need to bring back some images and make some pop, so many people refuse to change images on the computer at all. I'm building a portfolio and this helped me with action shots both in my camera and editing. thank you :)
Really enjoy your videos Jarod! With the AF settings I would seriously try letting the camera use its own brain. One thing we learnt going from 1DMk4 to 1DX was the AF system is different and simply better and takes some "unlearning" so you don't bring old ideas to new technology.
The 1Dx simply doesn't miss in auto point selection using the multi points around to refine its tracking solution. Looks like Nikon have learnt that and employed it on the D5.
Anyway great reviews and looking forward to seeing what you think of 14FPS..lol...great stuff.
Great review as always Jared, hey, that's a beautiful stadium
+Lex Arias thanks Lex!!!
I looks like you are the only one that did proper D5 review for now. With lenses that will be on it in real life and shooting sport. Not landscape or travel photography..
+roki977 thanks, I agree!!!!
Great video Jared, you've taken these to the next level.
I still haven't found...what I'm looking for....
Jared, this was a great and very helpful review. Thank you for your time.
Those photos are absolutely AMAZING! Also great review, very detailed:)
Great effort Jared & crew, great review.
+dbauernf thank you
Really great video! Can't wait for the next! In the meantime, I'll be exploring my Canon AE-1.
hi Jared great review for nikon d5. can you tell which camera did you use to shoot this video?
love this video Jared... we want more soccer games vlog !!! and i'm happy you're a U2 fan !
I love how you can hear the excitement about the camera in your voice!
$6500 excitement
Excellent Jared. It is good to see the camera being tested in way it is actually meant to be used.
I think the group area focus should be better for tracking the players.
Also let us know what camera/s was used to shoot the video?
shot with Nikon printed with Canon, thats team work people
+sadiq rahman exactly.
What about sony?
@@jeepjoseph9036 Maybe the song they were listening to while printing was from a Sony headphone (no offence)
@@AbhinavanandSingh none taken. I wish nikon made printers and headphones.
@@jeepjoseph9036 Waiting for HAHA react to come to TH-cam XD
Nice review Jared. Very well done!
One of the absolute greatest camera reviews I have ever seen!!
You deserve one million subs right now, I love your channel. Greetings from Costa Rica.
fro i just love you real world reviews always so educational thank you.
+Pedro Guerrero thank you very much.
Jared, one of the best reviews I 've seen.Thank you. I have the D4, I said I would wait for the D5s, but I am not sure anymore.
+Skytalker777 If you get by with the D4 keep it, it was a fantastic camera as well.
Tight & honest video, you portrait a beast camera. Pixel peeping is the reason I lookup your content. Your hardware feedback is very interesting.
Great review, Jared. Hope you make a video for the 1DX mark II.
For your reviews about the D5 i bouhgt my Nikon D5 yesterday, and was a monster the ISOS are incredible....!!! Thanks Jared for your time to make an excellents videos....!!!
+Bunker1947 you're welcome. Enjoy the camera.
Jared, these videos you make are fantastic. Thanks a lot :)
A tremendous review. Love your passion. You were in your element, Sports Photography. It really shows. A pat on the back for Todd too.
+missfloflowers thanks!!!
Great video. Do you have an other one with tips, or menu tour? Or something like that! I would like to see more “in side” of the D5. Love your work! Keep going! 👏🏼
Wow, what a wonderful review. It help me a lot on print part. Thank you.
Yo Fro bro...i know this is your passion, job, hobby, whatever....Your hard work is not lost. great stuff
very good shoot Jared, i have heard a lot of bad reviews on this camera, but from what i can see in this real World review, the camera looks great. I will not be getting the D5 anytime soon but i am going to get it's little brother, and i think it will do all that i need, very excited about getting my hands on the D500. this review on the D5 has made me see what the camera can really do, thanks for a great review as always.
Awesome video. I truly wish I could get this camera. I am trying to build a career path in action photography and the D5 would be a fantastic tool. However, I will likely have to go with the D500. On that note, thank you for the D500 review. I currently shoot moto and portrait photography with a D610, but truly need the auto focus speed for action. Your videos have been truly helpful and I am glad I found your channel.
Oh, and yes, I SHOOT RAW!
HORIZONTICAL is the best word yet.
Very thorough review Jared, my D5 arrives Tuesday. What equipment setup did you use for this? I like the way you were able to go from landscape to portrait just by turning the camera with that big 600mm...thanks
+Joe Giz I showed all the lenses in there from 70-200 to 400 and 600.
Fantastic review Jared! Tremendous job. Thanks.
+Roberto Silva thanks Roberto.
Great video - with the focus 'issues' you should look into the new 'af fine tune' feature which corrects for slight anomalies in different lenses and the issue of the af module not being in the sensor because it's a DSLR.
Fantastic video. Thanks so much for doing everything you do!
So this setup or a Lamborghini Aventador SV?
This setup.... Definitely
i definitely don't need a lamborghini ahahaha
The sv costs a bit more
I use 3D focus tracking successfully with my D3 and all other cameras except for the D750. Lock onto a face and as long as you hold down the shutter release halfway, it will stay with the face no matter what the subject does, even if another player gets in the way. It will go to where the subject should come out and it will lock on once more. It’s a knack that has to be practiced a few times and most don’t even try it.
Props on this review, Jared! Spot on!
Yo Fro, really liked this video. I am a season ticket holder at Blackpool FC soccer (football in the UK). When I see the photographers in the ground they have either the Canon or Nikon versions (maybe previous versions) of what you have and also another camera with a 70-200 lens so they can switch when the action is closer. Again great vid!
+Anthony Brady yup, I mentioned that somewhere in the video I think.
Your reviews are excellent Jared, Really wanted to see what a print looks like, And yes you showed some prints,,, Thank you Jared
+redauwg911 thanks.
Outstanding review. Finally a true real world review for this camera.
More of this please, awesome video
So how have you come to grips with the different dynamic area focusing behavior changes, and do you think this was this the reason for your softer images that day.
Great review! The thing I like about your videos, is that I can count on complete truth. You put all of the facts out there, and let us decide. Awesome!
+coreysaysyo thanks, that's what we go for.
Great review Jared! Congrats!
+Michael Varaklas Thanks Michael.
One of the best and most thorough review I have ever watched! Great job! Would you please do the same for Nikon D500 and compare with D5? Thanks!
+Steven Lui thanks Steven.
Great real world review! I agree at 21:30 it DOES seem like the face is just a tiny bit out. However, one could also make the argument that the shot is BETTER having the face be slightly out because it made the cleats, grass, ball and falling player in focus and that's where the real action of the shot is.
Serious content!!!!!
The camera capability is so awesome I was almost getting choked up. I nominate a name for your camera: Excalibur.
The print looked great! Bear in mind that even though the image was shot at 16000 ISO, it was then pushed 0.75 stops in Lightroom. In all, that is the equivalent of around 25000 ISO with the boost in post production. Very impressive...
I really like the the quality of your real world reviews with all the b-roll, music and microphone quality, especially in this noisy place.
+K3V0M thanks!!!
Great review and yes production of this video itself was great man thanks fro
I bought the D5 the last month, for the moment, i have just an old manual 300mm f/2.8, but even this that old guy, it's just amazing ! I can't wait to invest in a modern lens like the 500mm f/5.6 PF or sigma 60-600mm, or, in second hand, a 600mm f/4 or 800mm f/5.6 (or a sigmonster 300-800mm f/5.6)... Really great review !
FOCUS ISSUE> Hey Jared, I shoot sports with a Canon 300 2.8 and I think the only reason some of those areas are a little soft is because of lack of contrast in that area of the image. With so many focus points, it seems to me that the camera will focus independently on different areas of the image. Maybe like you said, a single point, or what I use is single expansion, may work better for a more consistent focal plane? Your thoughts. Rosco Australia
I´ve never shot sports before, but i´m looking forward to do so. What would be the best opinion if you enter a field with such shadow-casting like at 2:31 ?
I guess AUTO ISO, right?
Great Video by the way!
great video and photos
Now i have to get out and take photos again! Inspiring as always.
Now that's what I call a review. Inspiring stuff.
Wow, serious lens envy! Great review, can't wait to see real world comparison with the new Canon 1DXmk2.
Thank you, very informative. Shooting birds, launching herons puts my D5 through its paces. Shot a hummingbird @ 64000 iso, 1/8000, f/5.6 and got a keeper! Great camera.
What's the max print size at 64k?
@@polmacdhomhnaill3021 it's a d5 so pretty large
Thank you Jared, another great and informative video.
+MachTwo57 you're welcome.
You likely answered your own question about why a very few of the images shown on your computer screen did not seem fully sharp in the face, leading you to question your technique. But you earlier indicated that the depth of field with a 600mm lens at f4 would have very shallow depth of field leading a foot focus to throw off potentially the focus on the face. I played with a depth of field calculator and the 600mm lens at f4 would have a depth of field of only 15 or so inches at what I estimate the distance to be to the player shown in your photo. So your technique is possibly fine, and the autofocus in the camera is possibly fine, but focus may have been a very small amount due to the focus point that was selected.
+Jared Polin Like you said you need to figure out which focusing mode (dynamic, group area etc.) to use and when, I get confused with the same. So if possible please make make a video about this. It would be of great help.
where you print these perfect pictures out? what types of paper you used????
OK, I have to admit I did not really care how well the D5 would perform because I would never buy it: too expensive for me, but most of all I have thousands and thousands of dollars worth of Canon glass. So I'll never be able to move away from Canon.
But your review was FANTASTIC. You kept me watching right until the very last second! I wish you would review all the stuff I'm interested in, photography related or not.
Great work!
+www.alexatlani.com thanks, we will be doing more with all types of cameras.
SUPER Video, i am now waiting for your Real world review of D500!
+Mohamed Nanabhai Me too.
Could you do a real world review of the sony RX1RII? These are really helpful vids. Especially liked the RX100IV review.
BRAVO Jared...great, useful info!!
+Sam Samsimmondsimages you're welcome sam.
Fantastic!!! Beautiful review !
+Alonzo Santiago thanks Alonzo.
Excellent review, Fro!
+bulltastik thank you
Looking forward to you doing real world test of the Canon 1Dx Mark Wii and Nikon D6. Don't sugar coat the Mark iii codec and video processing in post, including cost to actually use the footage.
Great review. Thanks.
love your review
