I have a Canon 5d3 as well (I believe you said that’s what you filmed with). I’m looking to start doing TH-cam videos - I plan to film from overhead onto a countertop as I do some drawings. I was thinking of getting the Canon R5 or R6, but really prefer to hold off on mirrorless, until technology gets better (ie overheating, issues with image - dark/ black colors), and when more lenses have been released. Battery life is also a concern. Should I just get another 5d3, or maybe a 5d4 - or would you get an R5/R6?

“THERE IS NO PERFECT CAMERA!” Someone finally said it. There will always be people who think something is bad when everyone else thinks it’s good, and vice versa. YOU have to pick the camera that is right for YOU. I love my EOS R but I also love my 90D. They’re both great at a lot of things but my eos R absolutely crushes it.
As a working Photographer (forgetting 2020-2021) I went from the 5D Mk III to the EOS R. I did this because the 20mp of the R6 is a dealbreaker, I like the ability to crop hard and the R5 is just too expensive given I don't need the extreme focus capabilities. Also, I never shoot video so this camera makes a lot of sense. I found it for £1400 *including* the Canon EF adapter. A great deal that allowed me to buy extra batteries and still have change for a 70-200 2.8 Mk II. A lens I used to hire all the time. It to me is almost like a continuation of the 5D series into mirrorless, and I definitely feel the refinements at a very reasonable price.
Great review. A very honest and realistic review. I rarely use video, so was nIce to hear your photographic reasons. I have just started video - so it was helpful with those aspects. Thanks. Well done. (From Australia)
You can set up any of the top buttons to change from evf to the screen!!! I set up the lcd light button in mine since I rarely light up the top lcd!! The one problem I have with my R is that when you try to move the focus points with the dpad they move veeeery slowly.. thats the only con I have...and yes I know you can move the point by touching the screen and its faster I just dont like that feature...
Hey man, great video. Won yourself a new subscriber. Loved the chilled vibe of the video! Keep the R content coming as I’m close to buying one soon with the rf 35 - you mentioned you would do a review on it? Is that in the works? 😅
I've been going back and forth with selling my 5D4 in replacement for this eosR. I'm using it mainly for portrait and some landscape photography (not so much video). I'm more than likely gonna make the switch! Thanks for the video man! :)
@@albertthoughts thanks man! I do love the 5D4 though. I may sell my T7i, use thAt to get the eosR and keep the 5D4 as a back up. Not sure which route, but I'm definitely still gonna get the eosR! I heard the eye AF kills it after the update!
@@ForGabeAndSammy thats a great idea! definitely will make a super strong combo, the eye tracking is definitely nice as well though I have not had a chance to try it out too much. I'll include that in the RF 35mm review!
I have programmed one of the buttons to switch the EVF off. Problem solved. The R5 has less buttons to be programmed, so the EVF taking over during the screen is flipped out is more a problem of the flagship.
@@albertthoughts Albert The not existing totary controller but 5 button concept of the EOS R is great to put some extra functions to direct access.

Hey, need advice here for IG content creator. Most hard highlight shot are low light live band peformance in night. My target "IG LIVE REPORT" work flow is: Shoot photo (jpg) / video (format not know) -> download to phone -> give watermark on phone apps -> upload to IG. My concern are with video content part to my targeted workflow. My eyes are lock into Canon R + canon 35mm F1.4, cuz it is in my budget range. But i dont want make mistake for my big investment here 😅. I consider about sony a7 iii, but i afraid i still need added colour corection in pc or phone apps to my work flow. Or its just my unreasonable doubt. And i already see different Content creator achieve that workflow using fujifilm xt 10 or XS 10 i forgot the series. Damn im confused. I dont want to all rounded perfect camera but i want it fulfill my needs, if you know im saying. It is my blessing if give a little advice.🙏
I also do not switch from my Canon EosR! With the body I have three lenses Canon 16-35mm f4 IS, Sigma 35mm 1.4 Art, Canon 85mm 1.4 IS. For me its a great combo, and reliable! Of course I have also my extra gear for video Ronin-S (don't use it much), Freewell variable ND's 2-5/6-9 (Best Buy ever), microphones and a nice and cheap monitor for false colour the Freeworld F6 plus! Nice channel you have! Take Care
You get really good video quality from the 5D 3! That's one of the reasons I got the EOS R - using a 5D3 and 80D on a gimbal just didn't cut it. My image quality was just not good enough (and I have shot hundreds of hours of video on 5D3). Just bought the EOS R and it has exceeded my exceptions on autofocus and image quality - terrific gimbal cam and "B" cam to my C100 M2
thanks for the effort and the sharing. the subject is relevant to me. but @ 1:25, you mentioned that you were filming this YT vid on 5D3. i was VERY surprised how well the 1080p video looked especially with you up-rezzing. please share your 5D3 video settings/tips/insights. thumbs up.
1080 definitely isn’t bad when upscaled unless you zoom in, but that’s basically the case for 4K too, we wouldn’t really zoom unless we do cropping. Since the 5D doesn’t have Log, I usually shoot wide open with around ISO400 depending on lighting, there’s no dual pixel autofocus so I manually focus with a shutter release first if I’m filming myself, I find it pretty useful. Other than that, I rely heavily on the EV scale to see my exposure at times because the screen can get a bit dim in harsh lighting
Love the review. I got the EOS R 1 week ago and love it, but comparing it to the R5 is a $1700 to $5000 and that isn’t really a comparison. My Toyota Camry is good, BUT THE LEXUS LS...
Thank you. I also think the R is a better crossover b/w R5 & R/6. The R6 is not really an upgrade considering what I do. For instance, I do a lot of editing for the stills. I like the 30mp over the 20mp for heavy cosmetics. I broke the bank by selling all my lenses for 15-35 RF (w/IS); I don't mind the 4k crop w/this lens. If I need the extra distance, I can always reach "65" focal length thx to the crop feature. Yes, I'm looking at a half full! To me, IBIS & Dual card cannot compensate extra $700 on the R6 over the R. Not to mention, there is no All-I on the R6! I like R5, but scaling at $3.9k, it's not worthy. I suppose you're paying for the video component, but until Canon can fix the heating issue, I'm going to wait for the major price cut or don't mind waiting for a few more years (R1? R2? R3? R4?) with my current R.
thats very true and very good points, megapixels definitely come in handy and gives you freedom to crop when you need to. how are you enjoying the 15-35?
Great video! I like your color grading. I just bought the EOS R, I love this camera which has not disappointed me yet! But I do waffle back and forth between the R or R6 only because IBIS. Thanks again and maybe do a tutorial on you video editing?
thank you, definitely planning on doing a video on video editing! the R is simply an amazing camera overall. I do have both. IBIS is a bit constrained because its not a full 8 stops on all lenses but it works magically when it does. If you shoot video, just keep in mind the R6 files will be a lot bigger and bulkier to edit (since its 4:2:2 10-bit) so may need to transcode. If you're shooting photo, other than sports, I think the R has amazing quality / bang for buck.
I want to add something on the battery and EVF. If you use EF lens with IS the IS is always active as soon as you on the camera that will drain the battery even faster. EVF is lagging big time when you shoot sport or wildlife which I hate the most. I have used many mirrorless cameras, none of them have this issue.
Thanks for this video. I'm in the same boat. I still shoot with the R and a 5D mark 4. I'm also a hybrid shooter for both video and photo but more on the photography side (I photograph weddings with both cameras) I use all latest L lenses with my R with the adapter. AF is very fast and snappy even with the adapter. Though I would love to have the R5 but the price is huge for it here in Canada. Maybe one day
The video quality on your 5D3 looks amazing! I just got a response from you regarding the R/R6/R5, but seeing this video makes me think my 5D3 might work great for TH-cam videos (I’m going to film over the counter crafts/ painting mounted on a tripod). If that is going to be the extent of my video usage, do you see a need for an R5? I thought the 4K fullframe with higher framerate was beneficial/ necessary, but your video looks great. Should I just get another 5D3 or 5D4 for vlogging? Did you modify anything on your 5D3 camera to get a higher quality (ie 4k?)? I greatly appreciate your insight. I’m enjoying your videos!
Thanks! I do think the 5diii does the video quality really well (I used the 1080p setting) but to be honest the sensor and processor can do waaaay more than what Canon allows - this is why a lot of people mod it with MagicLatern to enable 12-bit 4K RAW (though be extra careful cuz it might break your device). I would probably not use the 5D for vlogging since it is a very heavy camera, if you can find a cheap price for an RP, (although it also has 4K crop), that might be a good bet!
@@albertthoughts Thanks very much for your response. I appreciate you sharing your experience, insight, and the recommendation for a vlog camera; I will look into it. I still think the video quality off your 5d3 looks amazing; the color, warmth, etc... Thanks again.
Hey man I'm looking at the 90d or eos r for hybrid shooting mainly photography, but also some car feature videos, which one would you recommend I go for?
The EVF doesn't turn off? Really? I have the M50 and there's a sensor by the EVF that detects if your face is up against it, which turns the LCD off and the EVF on and vis versa. And I know the R has that same sensor so maybe it's somewhere in your settings? That said, I'm conflicted about getting the R. I originally was thinking of going with the RP but it's just too crippled IMO, and the R suffers some of the same curses like the crop factor in 4K plus the loss of DPAF. Now I pretty much exclusively shoot in 1080 anyways because my computer is pretty slow at processing 4K, but the extra features of the R6 is really appealing to me to make that bigger jump. I could use IBIS, I'd love to keep DPAF In 4K, not to mention it's gen2 AF, 20fps burst mode vs 12, 120fps in FHD...But other than the budget (being 70% more expensive then the R), the R6 being only 20.2mp are my main arguments to not go that route...hence my conflict. My M50 serves me nicely, but I do want to go full frame.
I wouldn't call iBIS a con since it's not something that exist in the camera. But you could say you wish the camera had iBIS, that seems to sound better.
Electronic Stabilization is present in the R but will crop your image or video in order to compensate, so your pictures will be smaller in pixel density, while the R5/R6 have a moving sensor that will help with Stabilization, something the R lacks as mentioned in the video
@@albertthoughts for my camera I went into the Camera Functions menu tab 4 to Customize Buttons. I set the AF/ON button to the |O| icon which toggles the display to forcefully show only either on the EVF or the LCD, even with the door open. For me this is handy so I can use the LCD for moving the focus point but then switching it back to LCD when I want to preview something.
I honestly think they do that on purpose you notice that one is good for autofocus while the other is good for video and then another is good for stability I think they do that so you will buy more then just one camera and everyone gets a chance to get money think about if say Sony or canon or even the other ones made a perfect camera you wouldn’t buy anymore would you would just buy that one camera just like over a 100 years ago we got fuel from just one place rockafeller and they sued him and they had to split it up buy other company chevron mobil and so on they call it the antitrust law I think
I have 1.8.0 on my EOS R and it also turns of the EVF when the screen is being used. And you can map a button to switch it from the screen to the EVF too.
@@albertthoughts Canon Cinema lens prime 35mm or 50mm That would be really helpful or whatever brand is available to like Rokinon or Sony etc. Thank you very much
I would go for the 90d for the extra reach from the crop, but that will depend on the lens you'll be using. Maybe even check out the 7dii if you can find a good deal! But if you decide to go RF, cropping on 30mpx should be totally fine too!
I'm currently looking at getting a used eos R for about $1200 USD on ebay. I'm looking to do landscape photography. I probably wont touch any video. I'm a hobbyist too, might be worth mention it. Do you think it would be worth the price tag?
Which lens and settings did you use for the astro photographh? I am looking for a camera that Can shoot safari pictures in the middle of the night with very little Light :)
definitely get something wide open like the f/2.8 15-35mm, I used a tokina 11-16mn f/2.8 while a good lens I don't recommend it for full frame as the sides can fall off in sharpness wide open.
I would say that is rather hard to get the whole sky. I use a separate wider angle to capture this! I used to use a 11-16mm Tokina @16mm since it's for apsc but since then been using the 16-35mm iii EF. if you have the budget, definitely check out the 15-35mm RF (amzn.to/3iL5AVu)
A big mistake in waste of money. You can go Soni A7 iii you get toomuch featchure at the same money. You save money more than 1.5 lakhs₹ and happy. This has just a tilted viewscreen only but more money .

I wouldn't call iBIS a con since it's not something that exist in the camera. But you could say you wish the camera had iBIS, that seems to sound better.
that's probably a better way to phrase it, guess that's one less con!
cannon shows in spec of an EOS R- In-body 5 axis electronic image stabilisation
Electronic Stabilization is present in the R but will crop your image or video in order to compensate, so your pictures will be smaller in pixel density, while the R5/R6 have a moving sensor that will help with Stabilization, something the R lacks as mentioned in the video
Red rock is my favorite! You from Vegas?
LA!
The R is a bargaign now. If you know how to use this tool it´s a great choice
This review was perfect
I believe you are incorrect about the EVF not being able to be shut off with the screen out.
definitely let me know if I can turn this function to off when the screen is out like the R6 or R5! I may be missing something, can't find it on the R
@@albertthoughts for my camera I went into the Camera Functions menu tab 4 to Customize Buttons. I set the AF/ON button to the |O| icon which toggles the display to forcefully show only either on the EVF or the LCD, even with the door open. For me this is handy so I can use the LCD for moving the focus point but then switching it back to LCD when I want to preview something.
Good review
I honestly think they do that on purpose you notice that one is good for autofocus while the other is good for video and then another is good for stability I think they do that so you will buy more then just one camera and everyone gets a chance to get money think about if say Sony or canon or even the other ones made a perfect camera you wouldn’t buy anymore would you would just buy that one camera just like over a 100 years ago we got fuel from just one place rockafeller and they sued him and they had to split it up buy other company chevron mobil and so on they call it the antitrust law I think
Interesting about the evf... My RP turns on only when I approach it...
I have 1.8.0 on my EOS R and it also turns of the EVF when the screen is being used. And you can map a button to switch it from the screen to the EVF too.
Nice video!
thank you Connor!
I brought because of this video
I certainly hope you will enjoy it! Its definitely a fun little full frame beast.
Thank you very much and can you please make a video on Eos R with Cinema lens?
thanks! which cinema lens are you interested in to see?
@@albertthoughts Canon Cinema lens prime 35mm or 50mm That would be really helpful or whatever brand is available to like Rokinon or Sony etc. Thank you very much
What Lens you have on the Eosr on the thumbnail ? Thanks
its a samyang 85mm - check out my review here: th-cam.com/video/xF0IaVtTaSw/w-d-xo.html
nice info
is it good for wildlife or should i go for the 90d or the r6
I would go for the 90d for the extra reach from the crop, but that will depend on the lens you'll be using. Maybe even check out the 7dii if you can find a good deal! But if you decide to go RF, cropping on 30mpx should be totally fine too!
I'm currently looking at getting a used eos R for about $1200 USD on ebay. I'm looking to do landscape photography. I probably wont touch any video. I'm a hobbyist too, might be worth mention it.
Do you think it would be worth the price tag?
definitely a good value! if that one doesn't go through, canon's refurbished section has them for around $1200 sometimes!
Which lens and settings did you use for the astro photographh? I am looking for a camera that Can shoot safari pictures in the middle of the night with very little Light :)
definitely get something wide open like the f/2.8 15-35mm, I used a tokina 11-16mn f/2.8 while a good lens I don't recommend it for full frame as the sides can fall off in sharpness wide open.
@@albertthoughts problem is that I need good zoom as well. Like a telephoto lens
How take Astro photography in eos R with Samsung 85 mm
Thanks 🙏
I would say that is rather hard to get the whole sky. I use a separate wider angle to capture this! I used to use a 11-16mm Tokina @16mm since it's for apsc but since then been using the 16-35mm iii EF. if you have the budget, definitely check out the 15-35mm RF (amzn.to/3iL5AVu)
I have the EOS R & it’s perfect. It’s no cons for me if you want amazing specs for videos then just buy the A7iii problem solved.
so i dont need an adapter for this lens ?
not for this lens!
What is a „keeper“?
Something that you decide to keep for long term!
I just want a camera for stills. I don't care about video. What do ever...
Canon eos r vs nikon z6ii???
That would be a great video to make, are you deciding between the two?
A big mistake in waste of money. You can go Soni A7 iii you get toomuch featchure at the same money. You save money more than 1.5 lakhs₹ and happy. This has just a tilted viewscreen only but more money .
Lack of IBIS is a great disappointment.
thank you for sharing , i have decided to buy sony a7 :-)
Enjoy!
I'm sorry.. just kidding..love Sony too...
the bar is a frustation
Great video.
The big window on your right (camera left) is very distracting.
✌🏾✌🏾✌🏾
Thanks for letting me know❕
You can turn it off
There is no perfect camera but if there is it definitely isn't sony
AHHHHH KILL THE MUSIC BYE
thanks for the feedback Chaz!
@@albertthoughts I wanted to ask what's the name of the song in the video? thank you keep the good work
