    I think it's great to see long term "year later" reviews and thoughts about gear. They are much more meaningful than the initial release marketing hype when a new product comes out. I bought an R5 around late October after its launch and was lucky enough to get it by Christmas. I was switching systems from my MFT gear to full frame.
    After firmware updates the camera is an absolutely fantastic hybrid camera from Canon. FINALLY! The stills performance is just awesome and the video performance with Canon Log 3 is now great as well.
    The camera was poo poo'd, rightly in my opinion, from the beginning for the overheating. Canon did the right thing and released firmware to address some of the issues.

    I got involved with photography full time 20 years ago when i retired. After a lot of research, i decided to shoot with Olympus. I was completely sold on Olympus after spending hours at sea photographing whales. When i got back to y hotel, my camera was completely soaked with salt water. I just took the camera in the shower and ran hot water over it for about 5 minutes before drying it off with a towel. The camera still worked like new. Later, I started photographing ballet on a regular basis. I had just purchased my second Olympus camera, the one with their first electronic viewfinder. Unfortunately, when I tried to track a ballet dancer, the viewfinder was completely unusable. It was so badly blurred I could not see the dancer.
    At this point I switched to Canon and bought the 5D Mark II, then the Mark III, and now I shoot with the EOS R and the EOS R6. I could not be more pleased with shooting with Canon cameras.

    After using the R5 for over a year, I can safely say that this was the best investment I made into a camera system. Granted though, my first camera was a 6D Mark II and every feature is considered an upgrade. But the R5 made my chances of getting lucky on getting the perfect shot just dumbfounding! I am really impressed with the camera in the stills department and when I dabble in the video, I am immensely impressed by it's capability. Granted though, I only use the video in small samples and I barely use it in general. But having that option to shoot incredible video when primarily using it as a stills camera is incredible!

    • @techmaester

      I agree completely. Cannot say that about Sony A1. The image processing is crude at low ISO, and the lenses are too expensive. I liked Sony back when they were good with NEX. After NEX-7, the quality fell through the cracks, and I don't like that.

      @@MrDubicz Ah, interesting. That's different from what I'm running into. I've checked for updated firmware in the past, a couple of months ago, but I'll check again. My issue seems to be a problem with IBIS. Shots with fast shutter speeds that should be sharp end up being super soft with a lack of detail. It's pretty odd and frustrating to troubleshoot. I've seen reports of a very small percentage of R5 users reporting a sensor misalignment that leads to something similar to this. Unfortunately, since I'm not using Canon lenses, Canon support won't even open a ticket for it, and I don't really blame them. I'm going to test with some RF glass today. That should prove if it's a lens issue or a sensor issue.

The change has been incredible, it is an outstanding set up for the product photography work I do. I shoot on a Sony A7RIII for my personal work - which I think I still prefer over the R5, however, I am getting some strong 28-70 f2 envy and the R5 is the best way to take advantage of it.

    I too bought a Canon R5 and am a very satisfied customer. My only complaint is the lack of glass to be found in stock. I had to buy an adapter off ebay to use my ef glass. The R5 is a beast! As for those who complain about 8k, what the hell are you thinking? I have 2 top of the line gaming computers that take forever to process 8k files. It's not practical to process longer videos with file sizes that will only lock up your computer. Camera files are out pacing the ability of computers to edit such media. 4k is the best resolution for the majority. Back to my main reason for buying the R5, the pics are on another level with the autofocus. I think Canon has an edge over Sony with the combination of ef or rf glass plus the autofocus. Just can't be matched. The only real complaint is the battery life. You will need to buy extra batteries for videos or invest in a battery grip. I have 6 batteries now due to taking trips on the weekend only to find out that it takes a long time to recharge one. Don't find yourself without a fully charged battery. I'm wating to see what the newer flagship models bring to the table in terms of specs and performance. Going to be an interesting year to come!

  • @Seitenwerk

    Still probably the best camera to date. Even beats Sonys A1 considering prize and especially the lenses (and if you don’t need any specific A1 features, the r5 actually beats it in many aspects from video quality, stable frame rates auto focus etc ). I really like that canon is even improving on it via updates like adding vehicle detecting that just came out for the R3.
    But as mentioned above, probably even better are the lenses. Those alone are worth getting this camera. The unique ones like the Rf 28-70 f2 or the 70-200 f2.8 which only exist here are probably the best lenses in the market to get. Yes it’s expensive. But for the ones looking for extraordinary quality not found anywhere else, they will find it here.
    Regarding heat problem I also find that overly exaggerated. I guess some just tried to find something to criticize even if it didn’t make sense. But who is actually able to record 8k raw for 10 minutes when the file size is gigantic? And who record a single cut with 20 minutes? Everyone who actually does will get a dedicated video device like an c70 anyway.
    Definitely glad getting this camera and after over a year of using it professionally, I actually just ordered a second one..

    • @techmaester

      What is amazing about the R5 is aside from sensor size, it is the only camera on the market as of 2022 that can legitimately compete with the almost flawless performance and imaging quality you would get from a Phase One or RED camera, which cost as much as a new car (such as Chevrolet Cruze). Phase One or RED require little skill to learn and easy to setup, but the size is intimidating and uncomfortable so portability is unfit for the casual user even if can be afforded. May be more geared for a camera crew, and yes, you usually see Canon more often as a secondary camera when the modular equipment is undesirable, and Nikon a close second. Some Nikon DSLRs can give great results, but you may be paying quite a bit more.

    Thank you for this follow-up Jared. I do primarily landscape and architecture photography and love making gigantic prints. I'm still using a 5DsR, and have a fortune of EF glass. For mirrorless I'm still using a Sony A7r3. For some reason I haven't gotten myself to fully commit to the Sony system, and on the Canon side I have a stroke every time I calculate how much it would cost to switch over to the R5. Maybe if and when a R5 mk 2 becomes a thing I'll be ready to take the plunge. I'll keep getting my Fro news fix until then.

    I'm a Sony shooter for video and photos but it's really nice to have viable mirrorless cameras from Canon to keep the mirrorless trend rolling forward. I don't hesitate to recommend the R5 and R6 to people who are already in the Canon ecosystem when they are looking to upgrade. I think the biggest downside right now for Canon is the lack of 3rd party glass. They really need to open that up to allow a variety of lens options for everyone.

    to give perspective (follow up) Camera over heating might be something we have to get used for a while (unless they get really good ARM CPUs...maybe) I have the Sony A7S3. And filming outside, in the sun, in 1080p 30fps, 4.2.2 10bit it WILL over heat and shut down in a couple hours. (not constant recording) I have been getting in the habit of holding my camera and putting it in the shade when not recording.

    so RF28-70 was my first WOW love it. RF70-200 F2.8 second . RF100-500 OMG this is ace to focus at 1.2mtrs when at 500mm gives a beautiful image (IMO ) next the RF100 Macro and later either the RF15-35 f2.8 or RF14-35 F4 Ive got to wait for cash but also to find out how good the F4 is . and then im done well at least till a second hand RF85 F1.2 LOL but I dont need that just want
