Pros: High image quality of both stills and video. Wonderful AF system. A very handy flippy-touchscreen. Good IBIS. Great ergonomics. Nice EVF. Impressive burst speed for 45mp FF. Well implemented manual focus assistance.

Cons: Two different types of memory card slots (SD+CFX). The longest exposure time in electronic shutter mode is only 1/2sec. It doesn't recognize people automatically and you have to switch people/animal modes, because while it does track people in animal mode, it does much better in people AF mode.

Opinion: I'm using the R5 for almost two years now. It's the best camera I have ever owned. The most amazing thing about it must be the AF system. It can literally track insects. It's amazing. I've shot flies in flight )). Birds, animals, people, objects - easy task, no problem at all, even in low light. The battery life is better than I expected, but it's not DSLR level, not even close. My 6D could last for a week of stills on the same LP-E6 battery, while the R5 can only go for a day or two. Not a huge problem, but the batteries will wear out much faster due to more charging cycles. The flippy touchscreen is excellent. High quality picture, good brightness and contrast, very responsive. Fantastic. I would really prefer to have two identical card slots, for two CFX-B cards. Because using two sets of incompatible cards is inconvenient to say the least and rather pointless. Because SD cards can't handle the highest bitrate video modes. Plus, SD cards are just less reliable. Perfect size for my hands. Well balanced. But I would prefer to have the Menu button and the on/off switch on the right side of the camera. Not a deal-breaker though. I don't shoot much at high ISOs. But those few times that I did "crank it up to 11", I mean up to 12800, didn't disappoint (for stills). It's capable of producing very usable results at high ISOs. And the colors are not simply falling apart like they used to on older cameras. Low ISOs are beautiful with good dynamic range. Lastly, it has the anti-aliasing (AA) filter, which affects sharpness, color and contrast, while reducing moire pattern and Bayer CFA artifacts. Which is good for video and people photography. But not so good for stills like wildlife, landscapes or macro (which I love). However, the AA filter in R5 is surprisingly good, not too destructive. So, no complaints here. Great camera. Best experience. Highly recommended!

Pros: sensor, noise at high iso, AF, ergonomics...

Cons: Lack of backlit keys and direct USB charging

Opinion: Exceptional camera, I thought I would be disappointed after having the nikon d850 but instead I changed my mind. Body of perfect size and weight, keys all in the right place (you could have made them backlit), sensor that gives colors for me beautiful and a little less saturated than the nikon d850, really good noise even at high iso. Stratospheric autofocus for what I was used to previously, barrel sometimes on fast movements with non-native optics, or on ungulates. The eye af on birds is spectacular, it focuses even if they are really in the distance. Lack of direct usb charge (like attaching cable with phone power supply), there is a sony a6000 that costs 5 times less, they could have made an effort and implement it on this too.

Pros: File, AF module, ergonomics, dual slot, CF Express B, viewfinder, general speed, key position

Cons: Sincerely? Nobody

Opinion: I've been shooting for many years, not for work alas (today if I could go back I would have done it) but as a hobby, I have been the owner of 500d, 60d, 5dmkiii, eos R and finally this R5. Let's start from the fact that the 5diii has remained in my heart, when I sold it also went with it a piece of my heart, my first FF and my first pro body, I did everything with it and it was there to always support me without batting an eyelid, the ergonomics were simply fantastic which with eos R I struggled a bit to find but then I got used to it and I also geared up with her even if he was always missing that something... That something I found in the R5, a feeling that seemed lost after the 5DMark3.... yes, the dials with the joystic are back finally, they were immediately felt from the first shot, it seemed to redeem with the 5dmark3, if I can say it FINALLY. Let's talk about this machine now, ergonomics from what I have told so far TOP, from 10, coming from a life of canon I immediately felt at home (everything in its place). The image quality is embarrassing, endless detail (and I was used well with the 30mpx of the eos R), initially it took me a few shots to avoid micro-blur, moreover I was testing the ibis as far as it could get and I was amazed by the effectiveness, leading me to shoot with times unimaginable before with the R (tested with the ef 24 70 2.8 ii... I still have to try the sigma 50 art). The lightning-fast AF module locks on to the eye and never leaves it, even when the subject gets so close that the minimum distance in focus is overtaken, even from a distance it works wonders (maybe coming from eos R I see everything in color?). Some time ago I tried a sony a74 with its 24 70 2.8 and I don't remember it so responsive. We went back to the double slot, which I lacked a bit even if the eos R did very well, with fast sd it never made me wait, but certainly having the possibility to save on the cf express b 45mpx files in raw and on the sd the jpeg (respectively 50mb average and 10mb average) helps and not a little both in terms of speed and in terms of security, having a sort of backup either in jpeg or in raw always behind.... Also on the speed issue I would say excellent, both in terms of the menu, fast and responsive like a smartphone, and on the gust issue, shooting at 20fps after the poor 5 fps of the R changes your "life" a bit, you can take 15 fps more and therefore moments that you would have missed before. What can I say, mom canon with this body has been able to savor after the reflex / mirrorless transition all the good she had built over the years with professional bodies such as the 5d series (which to this day I still consider of a high level, especially at the used prices that there are now). Well for me a full 10, I read comments of suffering at high ISO but honestly from a sensor of 45mpx what can we expect??? The counterparts are no better eh ...

Pros: Density sensor, CFexpress B memory card, AA filter, light meter, white balance, stabilizer etc, has so many pros

Cons: Noise, SD card, AF lock lower than R6 but only in low light, pixel shift only jpeg

Opinion: Decisive leap towards the super dense sensor by Canon for its class 5, unfortunately. The car itself is not bad, on the contrary. The sensor is of good quality, the raw decent, only that it is a purely studio camera, with meditated landscapes, thoughtful portraits. We no longer have the ALL-AROUND we were used to with the 5 series. Can it be used in other areas with good results? Definitely, but it's not his field. I would have preferred to have a camera with fewer pixels and more high ISO resistance and the option of a superpixelated version eventually. The AA filter, exposure meter, white balance are good for those who shoot in Jpeg. The pixel shift only in jpeg is absurd, a joke. On the video side, on the other hand, it has many useful things starting from the ALL-I, but also here: RAW shooting only on the CFexpress, when Blackmagic saves in raw on SD. It is the usual Canon that positions the cameras in market segments always giving the impression of having bought a good product but a bit neutered, it is true that no one gives anything away, but this is its only superpixelated mirrorles, an effort could have been made and instead even in its Mk2 it has remained anchored to this philosophy, never mind. My opinion is: it makes sense to buy it only if you practice certain genres listed above.

Pros: viewfinder , articulated screen , file , white balance , AF

Cons: Power button on the left, batteries last short, overheats, operating speed, dominant magenta

Opinion: So let's start from the assumption that I love this car, in my opinion it is a body that allows you to do everything from wedding, landscape portrait to naturalistic ,,, the file is very malleable it scrambles as you want. The AF system is excellent especially the locking of the subjects and the eye focus, it focuses even in very little light, but the general operating speed remains a little slow especially when you wake up the camera quickly from standbye, I took many photos I find the file wonderful for how it manages to give me the opportunity to work it but it has a very big flaw this dominate magenta really invasive when you shoot with little light. The power button on the left I have not yet got used to it and I will never succeed, another problem is overheating especially when you work in the summer it happened to me that it also crashed with photos unfortunately not only with video, in addition the batteries do not last long. Even in the studio with the use of flashes it behaves very well, in short, overall I still consider it an excellent camera with which to really do everything in an excellent way.
