The R5c I have bought some weeks ago and must say: it is one of the best camera that I have in this price sector. The camera has the best performance with the canon RF Lenses. If You use very good lenses, You get the best results in 8K. The biggest Problem: The camera is very power hungry.
Hell yeah, T2i was my first camera too. We eventually gave it to our neighbor and she made an excellent feature length doc with it, while still in high school.
You're the best at what you do. Just a fact. So much real world info, footage, and honesty in a vlog format. Hopefully my next camera package will be some R5Cs!
Im still here because these videos are so watchable! Its such a thorough style of video but its so easily watchable. I love how the segments cut in and out of each other and you tell the story with the different characters involved. Crazy.
Clog2 from Cinema RAW Lite on the R5C pretty much needs noise reduction applied but even so the noise will be more controlled in a oversampled 4K mode with custom noise reduction settings. Canon should just throw us a firmware update with clog2 XF-AVC mode.
Been using the R5C for 3 full months now and it has been amazing. Obviously the battery is the only big issue but I have four and its been fine, and powering with USB C is super easy. For a portable cinema setup, a dtap battery or dummy is a great way to go. For photos, its just as goood as the R5 without the ibis, but its truly a video beast. No regrets at all!
I'm not going to buy a Canon R7 until I've watched your next humongous video about it! The only half-hour reviews worth seeing, great quality stuff always
What are your autofocus settings? My autofocus seems to work pretty well. You were cycling through the options but didn't show a demo. My "Continuous AF" is set to Enable, my AF Frame is "Whole Area" and I also have the Face Det. & Tracking on. I haven't tested out zooming in on 8K footage, but another UA-camr who does tech stuff responded with his own demo that showed excellent quality at 10x zoom. I know you're probably slammed with work but if you're able to, would really appreciate you doing more demo's with the autofocus because I'm sure it's better than that. Anyway, as always, really appreciate your work.
I have a R5C myself. YOU answered a TON of my questions and Ive been using the camera for awhile! Incredible review as always! Keep up the fantastic work Gene! Sub'd for life!
@@alexandrosmargo552 superb image quality in video and photo modes. I absolutely LOVE the separation of video menu from photo menu. This camera eats batteries like I’ve never seen. It’s unfortunately next to impossible to get it to record 8K 60 without all kinds of extra battery power cables attached. But overall, by far the best video/photo hybrid camera I’ve ever used.
I got my Canon R7! Pre-order from Canon finally came through. I love it as a B-cam to my R6, R5. It isn't as feature-packed and the crop sensor image isn't as nice as the r6 & r5 but that's the point of the lower price and for that, it's a great value. I love it!
Random thoughts. The 7 series of cameras have always produced still images that I love - e.g., extending the 135/2 to 216 or whatever. I'd buy an R7 in a heartbeat for that reason alone, but I'd keep the R6.
Really surprised that this was one of the only videos that mentions the autofocus performance. You really knocked it out of the park with this one. I'm having autofocus issues and I'm wondering how no other video has even mentioned it.
With 8K and now 12K, at a certain point, won't the clarity of the image be limited by the sharpness of the lens? Cropping in 3x on your subject will hardly match the clarity of a camera shooting 4K either zoomed in or moved closer to the subject.
I own a Canon r7 with a viltrox ef-r3 speedbooster and I am blown away with the results, for the price. You definitely should do a review of that camera!!
I have been watching your videos for a long time now and I really love your content. Can`t wait to see you at 1million subscribers... I would love to see you review the R5 with the newer firmware as soon as you can.
Press and hold MENU + Custom Button to quickly set it, that's great, I loved that Panasonic let you do that with just press and hold on the button so I'm glad a shortcut exists for Canon. Wonder if it works for all camera's or just a select few **runs home to try it on the C70!**
I'm also thinking of upgrading my R6 to an R5/R5C for pro video. Do you miss the IBIS? That's the one thing making me lean towards the R5, especially with the 1.6 update fixing the overheat.
@@fotomaton7852 I would prefer going for R5C, I don't really care about IBIS as it is the reliability of the camera. I just shot my 4 wedding with the R5C and it's a BEAST! And shot all of those weddings handheld (R5C on a rig). No overheating issues at all and the image quality that come out of this camera is crazy. I think you'll love the R5C, plus it's actual cinema camera.
@@trop1calfilm Yeah the cine features are for sure the main draw (exposure assist tools, being able to punch in while recording, LUT import etc) But how about battery life? everyone says it blows, how do you get through an entire wedding? Swap batteries all day or external D-TAP/VMOUNT?
0:58 totally reminds me of all the characters you gave Dylan back in high school lol. Jon and I were just watching your movies last night with his girlfriend.
The lack of built-in ND filters is a real bummer. I understand why it wouldn't have IBIS (because it can create problems for high-end filmmakers even when turned off), but this is exactly the kind of camera that should have built-in NDs.
Mine just showed up today, but have been using one for about a month. The battery is super rough, other than that, it's fantastic. I desperately wish canon updated the battery for this camera. My main take away is that adding cinema camera features to a mirrorless camera is huge. Whenever I use my a7siii, I wish I had false color, anamorphic desqueeze, waveforms, etc. This camera solves all that. It pairs well with my c70, but just wish it had those built in NDs and that dgo sensor that the C70 has. Tbh, I don't care about 8k since all my client deliveries are in 1080p, but it's a big plus if I need to crop way in. I give the camera an A-, almost perfect, just horrible battery life.
i bought a 20 dollar micro vmount plate and rigged it up with a tiny v mount. i put it on top for gimbal and to the back for handheld with a cage. it is actually cheaper than buying a grip and 2 canon batteries.
@@JonRawlinson anton bauer dummy . 150wh micro bauer. I did use fxlion but i returned them because they dont show enough info for battery life. I need some that shows time or a percent
@@RayValdezPhotography I tried the core swx dummy battery but it wouldnt work. it seems the r5c only accepts a dummy battery that is LP-E6NH. ugh! thank you!
@@JonRawlinson I had no problem with the core except I think the connection point is weak i would have to replug it. So I returned it. Seems like must dummy batteries are the same and just sent a constant voltage unlike real batteries which is why the battery life displayed on the r5c is wrong.
Love to see a review of the Canon R3 for video next. I know it’s not a cinema camera, or video first, but I think it has some pretty interesting video quality features/advantages that are above the R5/R5c. Of course more expensive, but still pretty interesting for video shooters.
I currently own a Canon EOS R3, I use it mainly for videography purposes at weddings. Let's just say it's an insanely good camera but I wouldn't personally say it's insanely better than the R5/R5C to warrant such a price hike. I've used the R5C, R5, R6 and own an A7S III for my gimbal. The R5C/R5 are pretty close in terms of video to the R3, granted the R3 has greater battery endurance and could last me hours just shooting video, the R5C/R5 would require me to have multiple LP-E6N on hand to get through a full day of shooting. I use 4K 120fps in camera on my R3 handheld and damn does it kick some ass, I've used 4K 120fps on my A7S III using handheld, and although it's good I feel that the in camera stabilization is just far better and more polished with the R3. I would also personally choose the R5 over the R5C for the stabilisation (IBIS vs Electronic IS) reasons as I shoot handheld, as well as the recent update the R5 received which effectively made it useable over long periods of time.
To answer your question about the Canon R7.... I own 3 of them.... Amazing camera... autofocus is super fast... battery life, no record limits... RF mount... I mean for the price, it's amazing!
Which one SHOULD you buy? It depends if you do more drone and tripod shoots OR are more oriented towards hand-held Vlogging or night-time shoots! Sony A73 wins the hand-held vlogging side of things AND the night-time low-light shoots BUT Canon R5c wins the well-rigged, heavy lens oriented shoots where you are on a tripod or using a big drone. I would also favour the Canon R5c with its beefier batteries and more weather resistant (i.e. more rain proof) ruggedized form factor on the more commercial-oriented shoots. For BOTH cameras though, SPEND MONEY ON SHARP AND FAST LENSES !!! You want T2.4 and faster at 18-to-24mm, 35mm and 50 mm focal lengths which most commercial-oriented shoots tend to use! To illustrate, would I rather spend my lens money on a Laowa 12 to 24mm Zoom or a 35 mm T1.5 CN-E prime lens if I had EITHER the Sony A73 or the Canon R5c? --- YES the 12-to-24mm Zoom is handy BUT I would rather spend $4000 on the single focal length T1.5 CN-E 35mm prime lens! Always spend more money on your lenses than your camera! Get FAST and SHARP LENSES !!! V
I have both the R5 & R5C .. the R5 with the new 1.6 Firmware is really making it hard to decide which one I like better. @PotatoJet I’d luv to see a video of you revisiting the Canon R5 ( 1.6 Firmware ) & comparing it to the R5C !
I think this will be my weekend test project. It feels like the R5C operator didn’t understand that infinity focus has a range not a single point. Also very curious to know which lenses were used as I’ve noticed that even small digital zoom in post on Sony creator channels show how quickly the image begins to look like Lego blocks…
@@katwoman1231 lol. "Sony mirrorless" what does that mean? Whats the camera? Whats the bit depth? Whats the bitrate? All Intra or Long Gop? What NLE is use? Whats the timeline color space? Whats the output color space? Blanket statements like these without addressing ton of variables involved is why camera communities are so toxic and brand snobbish. And your guy Carlos is exactly that.
@@creativegreats6924 yeah, I'm sure coz your explanation of why and how is pretty detailed and informative. What do I know? I'm just someone that owns both a7siii and R5c and limits my use of R5c to just interior shoots with controlled lighting because of the harsher highlight rolloff that makes the image fall apart faster in grading.
My brother got the R7 and let me play with it and it's very solid. Got my R5C a couple days after he got the R7 (at a local camera shop), and I almost want the R7 because of the better battery life. Haha!
Great Video as always Gene, but, Im sticking with my A7S-III, and My back up A7-III, I Use both for my interviews, and documentaries. The A7S-III captures so much details, and can shoot in regular room light and look beautiful with its larger sized pixels.
I really really want to get the r5c for the added dynamic range and cinema tools. But between the costs of life right now and with the new r5 firmware removing all overheating, I can wait...
I'm trying to decide between the R5c and the c70. I was leaning towards the c70 but after watching your video I might be leaning back, maybe. I don't know... Decisions!
I've watched this video about 4 times by now and I'm almost 100% leaning to get the R5c over the R5. I shot with Fuji Film Xt3 and although I loved the smaller form factor I just wanted more resolution out of the stills and video. I don't do a ton of professional gigs if any but I want a camera that can last me into the future of tech and I feel that the R5c ticks those boxes. It has plenty of video options to take me into the foreseeable future and not feel outdated in a few years. I can adapt some EF lenses with the ND adapter and be satisfied. I think tools like false color and wave forms would really help with video exposure and really get me more interested in shoot more video and it would feel more high end and professional.
Crazy because the R5 no longer overheats with firmware 1.6.0, wonder if he or any of the bigger photo/video guys will say anything about it🤔 Also wonder how current R5C owners feel about the 1.6.0. R5 update
i'm an R5C owner and i thinks its great the R5 has no more overheating issues. The fan on the R5C is great, but it's not even the main feature. Whats sets it apart from the R5 is canon's cinema OS. This brings so much more features that benefits the video side, and makes it feel like a true cinema camera that also takes really good photos.
Great video. Looking to add a second cam to the fleet of drones and something that can also shoot photos for kid stuff. Obviously Komodo is king, but this totally checks all the boxes for good video and run-and-shoot photography. Actually, I’m really glad you had drone pilots on there. Thanks!
I just shot a wedding with both A7siii and R5c. Idk if my settings were off but the canon could not maintain eye af. The sony locked in and never let go. the canon would lock in then just start focusing on random objects in the bg.
You are also loking at it on a 2K display with the horrid youtube codec laid on top. Try looking at it on a true 4K or 8K display and it looks like shit
You got me really laughing thanks for making my day with you comment saying if you hit by a car atleast its recorded in 8K....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....thanks man for the laugh...Greetings from the Solomon Islands

I don't get it either. I understand wanting to reframe, but a good 4k camera can do that and still be used for a 4k delivery and look good.
Yes that is very much correct. At those resolutions you’ll def need clinically sharpen cinema primes

@@katwoman1231 lol. "Sony mirrorless" what does that mean? Whats the camera? Whats the bit depth? Whats the bitrate? All Intra or Long Gop? What NLE is use? Whats the timeline color space? Whats the output color space? Blanket statements like these without addressing ton of variables involved is why camera communities are so toxic and brand snobbish. And your guy Carlos is exactly that.
@@BalaKrishna-bq5iz Carlos is right !
@@creativegreats6924 yeah, I'm sure coz your explanation of why and how is pretty detailed and informative. What do I know? I'm just someone that owns both a7siii and R5c and limits my use of R5c to just interior shoots with controlled lighting because of the harsher highlight rolloff that makes the image fall apart faster in grading.
oh boy i missed your videos, they are buttery smooth
Been using Angelbird ever since I switched to my Red Komodo and I haven't had any problems, really solid!
Yeah I’ve got a 1TB cFast for my BlackMagic 6K Pro and it's been great. I've never filled it on a shoot.
"Lean Gene" -- definitely can tell you've been focused on fitness (hopefully it's contagious and I'll catch it). 💪🏽
My brother got the R7 and let me play with it and it's very solid. Got my R5C a couple days after he got the R7 (at a local camera shop), and I almost want the R7 because of the better battery life. Haha!
Great Video as always Gene, but, Im sticking with my A7S-III, and My back up A7-III, I Use both for my interviews, and documentaries. The A7S-III captures so much details, and can shoot in regular room light and look beautiful with its larger sized pixels.
It's hard to believe this man was really using EOS R as his main video camera, but IG that makes him a real pro
Found your video when looking for R5c reviews and just subbed. Your video style is cool.
I really really want to get the r5c for the added dynamic range and cinema tools. But between the costs of life right now and with the new r5 firmware removing all overheating, I can wait...
So bad to hear you was in Germany and I missed you! 😔 I am looking forward to see your impressions in Germany!
YOOOO IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS LETS GOOOO
I'm trying to decide between the R5c and the c70. I was leaning towards the c70 but after watching your video I might be leaning back, maybe. I don't know... Decisions!
A7iv :)
im so ready to buy the r5c - for those who are canon over sony and do both photo and video this is greatness. but shoddy af is a major bummer.
Incredibly put together as always man. Appreciate you
Your videos have so much good information hence have to stick around till the end.
Wow that was an insightful explanation why those guys don't like IBIS, especially when considering to mount this camera on an FPV drone.
I've watched this video about 4 times by now and I'm almost 100% leaning to get the R5c over the R5. I shot with Fuji Film Xt3 and although I loved the smaller form factor I just wanted more resolution out of the stills and video. I don't do a ton of professional gigs if any but I want a camera that can last me into the future of tech and I feel that the R5c ticks those boxes. It has plenty of video options to take me into the foreseeable future and not feel outdated in a few years. I can adapt some EF lenses with the ND adapter and be satisfied. I think tools like false color and wave forms would really help with video exposure and really get me more interested in shoot more video and it would feel more high end and professional.
I'll just smile and dream. I might need this one day.
content creators: making video in 8k
UA-cam compression: ....hold my bear
Arri stole the lobby from IMAX lol PV Crew represent!
Charles! @13:20 such a great dude!
Crazy because the R5 no longer overheats with firmware 1.6.0, wonder if he or any of the bigger photo/video guys will say anything about it🤔 Also wonder how current R5C owners feel about the 1.6.0. R5 update
i'm an R5C owner and i thinks its great the R5 has no more overheating issues. The fan on the R5C is great, but it's not even the main feature. Whats sets it apart from the R5 is canon's cinema OS. This brings so much more features that benefits the video side, and makes it feel like a true cinema camera that also takes really good photos.
@@johnsysays lots of test are out already!
@@johnsysays IBIS on the R5 still wobbles even when deactivated. He talks about it in the video.
the goodwill sign looks really good in 8k
Glad you are back, started to worry about you!
Oooh I want that touchscreen video scrubbing on my a7siii
Since the FX3 got Netflix Approved, hoping for the same with the R5 C!
Do you plan to shoot for netflix?😂
how do they even know what people use. All these camers look damn near the same epecially in good lighting.
@@vagabundian5457 Came here to say this 😅
@@RayValdezPhotography camera metadata sees all
couldnt a person just edit the metadata. seems simple with photos at least
Seems like A1 wins the dslr battle right now
Bought two of those Angelbird cards during its presale. Thought it was a typo in the price. Glad to see you using it too!
Honestly the dog earmuffs made the video for me
Gene! Armando told me to get the FX3 instead. Do you agree with him?
Great video. Looking to add a second cam to the fleet of drones and something that can also shoot photos for kid stuff. Obviously Komodo is king, but this totally checks all the boxes for good video and run-and-shoot photography. Actually, I’m really glad you had drone pilots on there. Thanks!
I need Canon R5c now haaaa
I just shot a wedding with both A7siii and R5c. Idk if my settings were off but the canon could not maintain eye af. The sony locked in and never let go. the canon would lock in then just start focusing on random objects in the bg.
And then the Firmware 1.6.0 came out, thank goodness to that 😄
From a sony Venice to an iphone Peak Cinematic filming
Thanks for answering my question about the micro hdmi. I too like to live dangerously. I just can’t afford the repair. 😜
R5C all the way!
finally a better looking footage than a gopro on your drone ;d
I have a R5C since end of March and I love it. Thank you for your take on the cam.
What's that angeled HDMI cable you use there?
Its crazy how the Alexa Classic is still such a beautiful image given that its shoots only 2K.
yep, the Alexa's image is stunning.
Color depth and reproduction are 10x more important than resolution.
You are also loking at it on a 2K display with the horrid youtube codec laid on top. Try looking at it on a true 4K or 8K display and it looks like shit
@@silbay wrong, buddy. Nearly all films worldwide are projected in 2K.
@@silbay Yeah I'm gonna say the many movies and TV shows shot on it actually looked, and continue to look, just fine.
YOU THE MAN G! Thanks for the good content!
Awesome video! You answered all of the questions I had!
You got me really laughing thanks for making my day with you comment saying if you hit by a car atleast its recorded in 8K....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....thanks man for the laugh...Greetings from the Solomon Islands
the canon guy said its a cine camera? Than please ask the guy where is clog 2 🙂 Best review from this camera so far!
Man! 8:30 was shot on the new VENICE! Sick!!
I'd LOVE a video explaining all these CODECs and bitrates. I kinda understand it but would like to understand more confidently lol
I watched the whole enchilada! Thanks for the great review; now I am tossing up between the R5C and R7 (I have the R5 and R6).
The R7 doesn’t have that audio available that the R5C does using the tascam
Great to see your Potato face again!
Wow yesterday I wished you’d do a video on this camera. Thinking of changing from the Sony a1, lack of flip out screen is annoying
