I'm Selling the Canon RP: Why I'm Switching
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лип 2024
- In this video, I'm talking the Canon RP. This is a sub $1,000 full frame mirrorless camera and I've been saying that it's the right camera for a lot of shooters since it came out. But I'm done with this camera now. I'm selling it and switching to a new camera. So, I'll talk about why I'm getting rid of the camera, what I'm replacing it with and give my thoughts on whether the RP might be a good fit for you or not.

I have the RP and the R6. I bought the R6 mostly for the video capabilities and it's true that it's in another league but for amateur photography I'd still recommend the RP and a good piece of glass for the same price that the R6 and the kit lens
Yep, I definitely agree!
I own an rp and really like it a lot. I have been toying with possibly picking up an r6 recently, but keep stopping myself from pulling the trigger.
In the mean time, I still love it paired with my 24-105 f4, 70-200 f4, ef 50 1.8, and Samyang ef 85 1.4.
It’s definitely great quality for the price.
Absolutely, it’s a great camera! Tiny powerhouse! What kind of photo and/or video do you typically shoot?
I started with the RP, then moved to the R for a while, and now am on the R6. I could not be happier than I am with the R6. Autofocus, dynamic range, functionality, all of it is leagues better than the RP and R. I am so very pleased with its performance AND the images it produces. Congrats on getting the R6 soon!
It’s a great camera! Like I said, I’m still very happy with what I can get from the R and even the RP, but the R6 is definitely a step up in several key areas.
What kind of photography and/or video do you typically shoot?
Why did you choose the r6 over the r5
@@Diegoj2121 for me: first of all, the R5 is an amazing camera, but I don’t need 45 MP and I don’t need 8K, which are the main differences. And for me, the extra cost of the camera as well as extra memory cards and hard drives for the bigger files didn’t make sense for features that I don’t need. I actually did a full comparison of the R5 and R6 if you’re interested: ua-cam.com/video/cUEJfn6ZfyI/v-deo.html
@@JustinMyersPhoto absolutely! They are capable cameras as well, but I agree the R6 is a step up in several very key areas. And my camera rig is used mostly for portrait photography but use it for practically everything outside of that. I really have a lot of fun shooting with this camera, which is not something I could necessarily say about any other camera!
@@Diegoj2121 I’d agree with Justin. I don’t have much need for 45mp or 8k video. For portraits, events/wedding photography, it would be a bit overkill. The extra hard drive space required would be unnecessarily cumbersome to deal with.
With flash is it possible to put delay on flash so it triggers a little later and by how much?
I love my RP too, but I think I'm going to get the R6. It does everything I need for now, but it's battery life is terrible (I'll use 3 in a day pretty easily) and it can not keep up with anything moving faster than walking speed.
I love the size and weight and how compact it is with the 50mm (16mm also) and the 24-105 kit lens. Just have to decide if I need both cameras, or do I sell the M50 and associated lenses instead, which is what I use when I travel light. I'm keeping my 70D because the resale value is so low ($200 or less lately) and it is still a very good camera for things that move quickly. Just old. The R6 is calling.
I definitely understand!
Future reference. Because you will have sync speed issues with any camera, If you get a High-speed sync (HSS) off camera flash you can shoot at any shutter speed….
Entry level “Godox AD200 Pro” has HSS. Also they have speed lights that have HSS that are cheaper but wont work well in harsh sunlight outdoor shooting
I appreciate your comment! HSS actually only helps in shooting above the camera’s flash sync speed. Shooting HSS means the camera will actually take multiple exposures, though only exposing part of the frame each time, while the flash actually goes off several times in sequence. That’s why a flash can’t output as much power in HSS mode and that may be why you feel like they aren’t working well in sunlight.
But because of the way that HSS works, the flash and the camera’s shutter have to be much more well synced in HSS mode, since they have to expose the scene correctly several times for each individual frame. Shooting in this mode would only lead to way more potential issues.
However, I was shooting the RP within its maximum flash sync speed range. The maximum flash sync speed of a camera is the fastest speed at which a camera exposes the whole sensor at one time. Because it isn’t exposing sections of the camera in sequence, as it would with higher shutter speeds (which necessitates HSS), the exact sync of HSS isn’t necessary. As long as the flash goes off sometime between when the shutter first exposes the sensor and when the shutter closes, the whole frame will be illuminated evenly (this why flashes have front and rear curtain sync options), meaning there should not be a scenario in which part of the frame is black or appears to have bars across it.
The fact that the RP does have instances with “black bars” across it, means that it will randomly decide to expose the sensor in parts rather than the whole sensor at once, even within it’s maximum flash sync speed. If the RP had a fully mechanical shutter option, it’d be an easy way to fix it, but it only has EFCS, or electronic first curtain shutter, and it’s not the most reliable one, unfortunately. Like I said in the video, that is not an issue in most situations, until you start using flash.
Also, the sync speed issue is not something that is common to all cameras. Again, any camera that has a fully mechanical shutter (which is most cameras) automatically alleviates the issue because they just physically open and shut and are programmed to open completely when they are at or below the maximum flash sync speed of the camera.
Hope that helps! 👍
I have both an RP and an R5. I use the RP more than the R5, because I love the small form factor. The RP + RF24-105f4L is so small and easy to carry, and takes good photos. My R5 is mostly attached to my RF100-500L. The RP does not match up with this large lens so well, the R5 is much better.
Very cool. Ya, it’s hard to find a camera with better quality in such a small, but still comfortable to use, package. The R5 is amazing though.
What kind of photography and/or video do you typically shoot?
@@JustinMyersPhoto I typically do travel photography, landscape, and product photos. I also enjoy photographing flowers with my RF100-500L, as I discovered after I got it that this lens is fantastic for flower photos. I often take photos in low light conditions, and this is my main reason to buy the R5. I wanted the IBIS, low light performance and higher dynamic range of the R5. I chose the R5 over the R6 because I now and then print a landscape photo in large format, and I need all small details to be sharp and well visible. I often carry only the RP if I know that the lighting conditions will be good and easy. I do only stills, no video.
@@dahebable very cool, and a very versatile and capable setup!
Curious to know if HSS would solve the shutter/strobe issue for off camera flash
It’s possible. I wouldn’t think so though. It’s much more vital for the shutter to be perfectly in sync for HSS. So, if the shutter isn’t accurate enough for normal flash sync, I wouldn’t have high hopes for HSS. I did not try it though, so it’s worth investigating if someone else is having the same issues
I have the rp as my b cam to my r5. I wish I had the r or R6 as the b cam but I can't justify spending that much for a b cam. The rp is fantastic for photography. For 1080p video it's really easy to use.
Definitely, it was my B cam for a long time too.
What type of photography and/or video do you typically shoot?
@@JustinMyersPhoto portraits, families mostly. Some runway. I don't have the patience for hiking long distances or waiting hours for good light, etc for landscape. I don't have access to sporting events
@@onlysublime okay very cool, so primarily photo it sounds like?
Which full frame camera that shoots action is available under $1k ?
I ditched my Canon EOS RP for the Fujifilm XS10. I find that the XS10 had better dynamic range (seriously my biggest gripe with the RP), higher FPS, better for video, has IBIS!, etc. I realized that giving up the worst full frame Canon has vs the best APSC frame Fuji has gave me more joy shooting (at one point my wife said her Samsung camera had better dynamic range vs the RP... but she loves the pictures coming out of the XS10 way way more...
Glad you found something you like!
Another great video:) R6 is amazing:) and have all the good stuffs:) Never use RP. What do u think about 6d mark ii for video and also studio shoot? Maybe more stable for professional use in similar price range. Also has 1080 60. Maybe auto focus point is not as good as rp~
So, the RP is actually the same sensor from the 6D mark II. The RP does have a newer processor, so slightly better lowlight performance. The RP also has some of the newer mirrorless features like eye tracking autofocus. Image quality wise though, they’re almost identical
Sticking with the RP for the moment. I have a list of lenses that I want to buy first, i.e. 70-200 F4 L, and possibly the Tamron 15-30 with the adaptor. Already have the 24-105 F4 L so I think with those two added it will be a solid set, and I could then start thinking about the R6. Plus I'm not a professional, but an enthusiast at best (so I'm not making money from it, just spending haha)
It’s always a good idea to invest in good lenses, especially since the RP is already a very solid camera
@@JustinMyersPhoto my previous camera was the 1000D, so it was a huge upgrade for me. The quality of images is impressive, whether outdoors for 'intended' photography or indoors with the kids/family, even with the 35mm f1.8 rf. Very capable camera and didn't break the bank.
@@stephanosnicolaou7111 oh ya, that’s definitely a huge upgrade. And I agree, great camera at a reasonable price
Getting the RP as my entry level to mirrorless dslr (upgrading from sl2🤓). Now time to get a good lens 🤓As always lets of good info you shared. Thank you
That’s awesome! That will definitely be a huge upgrade. I think we talked about it, but the SL2 was actually my first camera. Great little camera for what it is, but the RP will be a very noticeable step up!
@@JustinMyersPhoto we did 👍Learned a lot from your videos. SL2 was such a great camera and still I’m using it as a webcam
@@GroovyTakeON awesome, glad to hear it!
EFCS affects your rendering with fast shutter speeds outdoors. That is a big issue if you are paying for fast lenses to create beautiful bokeh.
Ya, I didn’t want to spend a ton of time on that particular topic, because it could easily be its own whole video. So like I said, flash sync problems is the main issue that I have personally been having with the shutter in the RP.
I did mention a few times though that this camera is not meant for action and that I’m not an action shooter. I could probably count the number of times I’ve shot with a shutter speed (on any camera) fast enough to cause issues with EFCS on one hand, so that’s not something that regularly affects my shooting.
What type of photography do you typically shoot?
I have the RP and the R6, Love using the R6 when i'm just on the go with the family.
Both are great cameras! The RP just didn’t fit in my workflow anymore
@@JustinMyersPhoto How you handling the R6 footage editing workflow?
@@WasionKey Premiere Pro’s more recent updates actually handles the H.265 a lot better, but I make proxys for all my R6 footage as soon as I import it
I have the same feelings and have been postponing a decision to buy an R6… if there’s a good deal on the R6 for the holiday season I’ll probably invest on the R6 and keep the RP as a B cam
Ya, I’m hoping for some holiday sales as well!
Just wondering if you have an opinion on the Canon R vs the Canon RP. I see you've had both and would love to hear your thoughts on which you prefer.
I actually made a video comparing the two and my thoughts on just that! They are two great, but very different cameras, and it depends on what you want and need from a camera
@@JustinMyersPhoto thanks! Mostly casual family and wildlife photos... More of a general purpose rig. No studio or professional work, but still looking for usable video as well.
@@clbeckster for casual use, I definitely recommend the RP, it’s pretty awesome for the price. If you are interested in seeing some examples and comparisons between the two, check out the comparison video I made on this channel, but the RP is a great little camera
@@JustinMyersPhoto cool. Thanks, and keep up the great work with the videos!
@@clbeckster thank you, glad you enjoy them!
Had two at one point. They were my entry point into the mirrorless world. Sold them to get a single R6 and looking to get another R6. Don't blame you!
Ya, like I said it’s a great camera. I just am using it less and less, so it makes sense for me to invest that into something I know I’ll use a lot. Because I really love the R6!
What was the main motivating factor for you in switching to the R6?
@@JustinMyersPhoto Truth be told, I already passed that threshold that you're NOW going through. When you said you were getting "less impatient", that was ME 8 months ago. I made the switch because I'm more of a videographer and, like you so eloquently stated, I was looking for video features that the RP could just not give me. C-Log was something I had never used before and it blew my mind; fast-forward to C-Log3 and it's gonna blow your mind. It was my dream camera and I knew it when it came out. Add to that the dual card slot for peace of mind, joystick, 3 scrolling wheels (ISO, SS and Aperture) and the top dial (I hate screens). This body has everything that I need (emphasis on the I). Still to this day I'm learning how to use it. Flirting with the idea of saying yes to more gigs and I just needed something better for an increase to my production value. Pull the trigger. You won't regret it. Eventually I see you selling the 'R' as well because it's just not gonna be able to keep up with the R6. Once you have the budget for it, I'm sure you'll equate the R6 with another one just like it. Mark my words, lol
@@FranciscoAlvarezTV Nice! Ya I’ve used C-Log3 (and C-Log2) a lot as well and it’s very nice, especially with the 10-bit footage.
As much as I love the R6, there are a couple reasons I’ll have to keep the R, but mainly for compositing images in post. The next camera purchase after the R6 body will more likely be a cinema camera like the C70. But at the moment, I’m fine just renting stuff like that as needed
@@JustinMyersPhoto yeah, man! Anything above an R6 for me is overkill; it just meets my needs and THEN some so it's a body that's probably gonna die with me. I don't see myself selling it. I've seen you come up (subscriber) and love the direction you're headed. Admittedly, my favorite video of yours has been the one about your job and how you came across the decision to leave it. Congrats on taking the plunge. I'm somewhat on that fence myself (but that's a whole other story). Happy you're getting the R6 but be happier about the content it'll allow you to make. I think cameras are one of the greatest inventions ever made by man.
I use a Sony a6400 for filmmaking. But I'm going to pick up a Canon RP for photography.
Okay, interesting. What makes you want to go for cameras in two different ecosystems?
I just bought one of these Black Friday 2022. $599. RF24-105 f4-7.1 IS was $119. And RF 50 1.8 was $80. All refurb out of Canon site so basically new. For $800, I got camera with good glass. I'll be taking wildlife, so this is not best option. But for that kind of money, COME ON!
I'm hoping to switch to R6 one day. But for now, I'm loving it!
Wow, that’s a great price for some really cool gear! Glad you’re enjoying it!
The RP just seems so inferior compared to similarly priced APS-C cameras. Fuji X-S10, EOS M6II, Sony A6500 are all pretty close in IQ but blow the RP out of the water everywhere else. Plus those crop systems have all developed to where you have decent glass. Like I'd much rather shoot the M6II + 32 1.4 than the RP + 50 1.8. I shoot FF but I think sacrificing stuff like speed and autofocus for a FF sensor doesn't make sense
Definitely depends on how/what you shoot and what your personal preferences are in a camera system
I am a complete newbie in photography, but dont you also have to multiply the aperature with the crop factor on APS-C ?
It really depends on what equivalencies you’re looking at. Traditional wisdom is for something like relative depth of field, yes you would factor in sensor crop.
Even with that though, it all depends on what, where, and how you are shooting as to whether that becomes an advantage or a disadvantage. It’s all in finding the right tool for you in accomplishing the job you’re wanting to do
I agree with you about everything on this cam, I am thinking to buy the R6, or the Sony 7C
It’s still a great camera. I wouldn’t necessarily suggest the Sony A7C from this, depending on what you’re wanting. That’s the a7 III in a smaller package and it’s going to have most of the same issues, except the 4K 24.
Are you currently using the RP or a different camera,
@@JustinMyersPhoto I already have the RP, I bought it like 2 months ago, almost all pf my shoots are in dark areas, and Im planning to create a channel to do talking head videos of my drone including some shoot in slow-mo, and because the R6 or the 7C has a faster shutter speed, thats why Im considering those, do you suggest another one more affordable with great autofocus on photo and video.
@@rapolo01 okay cool. So, a few suggestions: I’m not sure if this is what you were saying, but faster shutter speed won’t help lowlight performance. 1/4000 or 1/8000 max shutter speed would be for super bright, direct sunlight or something. As far as lowlight/high ISO performance goes, the R6 is definitely way better, the a7C is better, but not crazy better like the R6. Autofocus on the a7C is about in the same level as the RP (it’s Sony’s older AF system, just with eye AF added to video, which the RP already had), R6 is noticeably better though.
If you are shooting a lot of talking head and stuff in dark spots though, I would suggest using the money to invest in a solid lighting setup, that’s going to make a much bigger difference in image quality than a newer camera.
@@JustinMyersPhoto I meant to say "faster burst shutter", how many frames per second can shoot, I know that the RP only take 2.5 fps, as you mention on the video the R6 can take up to 10 or 12 fps, that's why I think that I will need a faster burst in order to catch my drones in action and dont miss the shot.
@@rapolo01 ah, okay! Yes, the R6 can shoot 12 frames per second with the mechanical shutter and 20 with the electronic shutter. A7C does 10, I believe
Hi
So I’m in the market for my first camera, I’ve been shooting from an iPhone 8 (lol I know ) and I know it’s time to upgrade as I want to push on and cut my teeth. I’m shooting street photography in london, day and nighttime too. Do you think this would be a good choice for the task at hand, street photography and learning the ins and outs as a first camera? My budget is limited and is in the price point of the RP
Thanks in advance
Dave
I do think that the RP could be an option, but more importantly, how much money would that leave you for lenses in your budget?
@@JustinMyersPhoto Thanks so much for the reply. If I grabbed the RP with the included 14/105 then I could afford to grab a 50 there and then, or I could get the body alone and grab the 50 and 35. Any thoughts? Also, would you recommend a different camera? Appreciate your opinion
Thank you
@@davebee70 if you’re looking at the kit with the 24-105mm f4-7.1 STM, I’m not a fan of that lens. I would definitely recommend going with the 35mm and the 50mm prime lenses instead. If you’re looking at the kit with the 24-105mm f4L lens, I do like that lens a lot, but for street photography you still might prefer the two prime lenses for being smaller and less conspicuous.
As far as other cameras to think about, I really enjoy the image quality from Fujifilm cameras as well. If you wanted to look into getting something like a used X-T3 or even X-T30, and a couple Fuji prime lenses, I think that could be a cool setup for you.
To be fair though, I’m not personally a street photographer
dude! if your upgrading from RP to R6,. its night and day,. but im still keeping my RP as backup camera,. and r6 as my main cam,.
Ya, I’ve shot with the R6 pretty extensively already (that’s what made me want to get it) and I only ever used the RP as a backup / B cam, but it’s definitely night and day difference.
What kind of photography and/or video do you typically shoot?
I owned the rp before and sold it, now I’m considering buying another one for travel/2nd to my r6
It’s really cool little camera for its size and price.
What kind of photography and/or video do you typically shoot?
@@JustinMyersPhoto I shoot portraits
@@jasonm129 okay awesome! Ya, I love the R6 and the RP for portrait work
I got RP when it was first released with those freebies. The worst FF camera I ever had, got rid of it before Canon dropped the price. If you can't afford paying more than $999 then get Nikon Z5, which is a much better camera.
Why no one else mentions that RP does not have a mechanical shutter 🤯 it is such a huge thing.. just because of this I am not considering R8 and people were not even talking about it in the past.. why.. why..
Has nothing to do with the cameras, but I saw the clip of the French Truck bag and the Reve mug. You a Louisiana guy?
I lived in Baton Rouge for 6 years, just moved this past summer, but I still work with several clients in the area so I travel back pretty regularly.
You in Louisiana, I’m guessing?
I think it's a really good basic camera. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles but a skilled photographer can maximize what it does offer.
Definitely, I still think it’s one of the best value cameras available! Do you shoot with the RP?
@@JustinMyersPhoto I do! It's a great basic tool. Has everything you need, nothing you don't.
@@samuelmingo5090 that’s great, glad you enjoy it! What kind of photography and/or video do you typically shoot?
It's not a question at all, if I had money I would switch to a fancier camera (like R6) from my old trusty RP.
The RP is still a very good camera
guys, shots upon mentions of „pricepoint“ 😅
I have RP for more than one year. It is not just low frame burst, but stubbornness of RP on fast moving objects. It is worse than Canon 500D I have and use since 2009. RP is just true amateur. still life, family camera. Will do social, event reportage as well. But it is not a canine camera :) . It is small, light weighted, which is again good for amateurs and aged photogs. As for L RF lenses on RP.... Waste of money, IMO. RP and cheap, light RF STM lenses are meant to be together. At least RF STM lenses are just as good as L EF lenses, from what I could see in real use. For anything serious I trust, more confident with 5D MKII. I have no problem to use it on moving objects and 500D, 5D MK II batteries capacity are not just superior to any Canon R camera batteries, they gave adequate low charge warning. While RP... it just dies with way too short or no any warning at all. Due to miserable battery and no low charge indication not only I have to keep spare battery all the time, I have to keep RP on ECO mode and it just soo slow to wake up. I miss BIF with RP often. I could hear birds approaching or I spot them. But by the time RP wakes up, birds are gone... Would I update to anything else from RP? Not likely. It is hard to beat STM RF lenses for price and performance. And I just have no interest to lug around something like R, R6 and so on. I checked A7C and its EVF is just not matching A7C's premium price tag.
Ya, it’s all about finding what works best for you and your workflow!
R6 or 90D??? 🤔
Really depends on your situation: what lenses do you already have? what do you typically shoot? how do you shoot?
Those are very different cameras: a full frame sensor in a mirrorless camera (R6) and an APS-C sized sensor in a DSLR camera. They also have two different mounts, and big price differences, so it’s a difficult comparison
@@JustinMyersPhoto Currently has 300mm, 50mm wonder F1.8, and a kit lens of something 55mm.
@@JustinMyersPhoto Portraits, architectural, Wildlife, Landscapes, Street, and sometimes Events. I shoot in many ways to make the image pop to the viewers?
@@JustinMyersPhoto Oh plus I don't know about R6 price because I might not be able to buy it before Sept or next year since I have 9 courses and can't do any jobs during that time.
@@GalaxyDust I see. Well, one thing I would say to keep in mind is that the 90D is a DSLR on the EF mount. It’s a great camera and there are plenty of EF lenses available, but it has reached the end of its development cycle. So going forward, there aren’t going to be any new lenses, accessories, etc. developed for it. All the new developments are going into mirrorless.
So, if you were looking at buying the cameras now, I would say that it would make more sense to look at the R6 and R7 or even R10.
However, if you’re not planning to buy until next year, I would wait on the decision because the prices may be different and there may even be different cameras to consider
Needs and wants can go hand-in-hand. 😂
That’s true, they can. But it’s rare that they do 😂
For me, the worst full frame camera is preferable to a crop sensor
Ya, it definitely depends on the shooter and what’s being shot. The RP is a full frame camera though
Yes! I just bought an R6!
That’s awesome! I love that camera, how are you enjoying it?
@@JustinMyersPhoto haha I have only the body for now 😂 all the RF lenses I want seem to be on backorder for now but i will get one soon! But im excited!! 😊 I hope you enjoy yours too!
@@crispycaptures oh man, bummer! Do you have the RF-EF adapter? I still use a lot of EF lenses with my RF mount cameras
@@JustinMyersPhoto This is my first time switching to Canon and Mirrorless lol so i figured I might as well invest on the RF glass but It shouldnt be too much longer! Im excited though! It feels nice!
@@crispycaptures awesome! So, which lenses did you order?
26mp photos man… where you get your info?
They are 26 MP photos. I get my info from the manufacturers publishes spec sheets. What is it that you’re taking issue with?
@@JustinMyersPhoto you said 20.2 megapixel camera..
@@letsfindout6587 ah, you mean that one time in the specs section? If you play it back, you’ll notice that I put a caption on the screen correcting that. I misspoke that one time, but said 26 throughout the rest of the video. If you get to the end, you’ll see what I had on my brain that made me say 20 that one time
You have to be good not the camera, The camera is a very good camera why spend 3500€ for the R5 when you have a full frame camera, People these days always want the expensive and latest things, Make like me i get the R7 for other tipe of work, But n my opinion RP pictures are better then the R7.
I didn’t get the R5 or ever discuss that. I agree that the RP is a great camera, but it doesn’t work for a lot of my specific needs, as I discussed in the video.
Did you watch the video? I actually answer all these questions in the video
You claim to be a photographer, and not just a specs reader so...where is your website with some of your work?
😂😂😂😂 wow, I’ve never had a more aggressive ask for my portfolio. Nor has someone who wants to see my work ever been so lazy in trying to find it 🤣🤣 my links are in my video descriptions as well as on my channel page. Sorry for not emailing them directly to you personally as soon as you clicked on one of my videos 😄😄🫠
@@JustinMyersPhoto Again, stop double talking and give me a website address that shows your work. There are no links toa bona fide website. And I'm aggressive because I'm tired of seeing shills like you on UA-cam professing to be more and know more than you do. You're a carnival barker, nothing more nothing less.
@@JustinMyersPhoto SHESSSHHHHHHH
@@studio1055 🤷♂️
a very long video where you repeat several thoughts over and over again. It will take 3-5 minutes.
Thanks for your constructive feedback. I will strive to do better for you next time
Hi Justin,
I wonder if you still reply to old video.. If you do, you'll get yourself a new sub for sure. I promise.
I'm currently in the dilemma and your video I think is the best describing it. I'm in a position to buy a new camere, and my budget will allow me to get either:
A. EOS RP + RF 50mm f1.2 L/RF 15-35mm f2.8 L/RF 24-70mm f2.8 L+ 16mm f2.8
B. EOS R6 + RF 50mm f1.8 + RF 16mm f2.8 + RF 85mm macro
My budget is very limited and most likely need to stick with those set ups for at least 1 more year before I can get more bonus wage from my company.
My usage: family event photography, pictures of very fast moving kids, and travel photography
And...
One important thing is that.. I realized lately that I'm actually a good storyteller as my friends and family can attest to. So I'm starting to study and get into VIDEOGRAPHY. I think I'll be good in it, just need a camera where I can grow into for a long time during my VIDEOGRAPHY journey.
Which should I go for?
Thank you once again and I really hope you can give a solid reply that can help my final decision.
Cheers
To be honest, I’m a bit confused by your budget. The first kit option you listed with the RP is roughly an $8,300 USD kit, but the second option with the R6 is only a $3,600 USD kit.
So, I have two recommendations:
If for whatever reason those kits, exactly how you have them listed, are the only two options, I would definitely recommend going with the first option of the RP with the L lenses. The RP is still a capable camera and those nice lenses will be more important.
However, if the budget of option A is what you want to spend, I would say take option A, switch out the RP for the R6 and the 50mm f1.2L for the 50mm f1.8 and you’re at the same price point. Then you have an extremely capable camera with some great lenses as well as some solid prime lenses.
Ultimately though, if you are planning on spending either amount on buying new kit like that, I would highly suggest you rent the cameras and lenses before buying. That way, you can get a feel for what works best for you personally.
What camera and lenses are you currently using?
@@JustinMyersPhoto
First of all thank you so much for the kind reply.
Sorry on the option "A", I put the "/" to mean "or". So budget is roughly the same. I haven't decided whether to go with 50 L/24-70L/15-35 L. If it's the 50L it would mean that the 50 f1.8 will be changed to 16mm f2.8
I've absent from using any camera since the pandemic. To sum it super fast, Previously I've used leica m240, then moved to sony a7rii, then to leica sl, to fuji gfx, back to sony a7iii, then eos rp back when it launches but only with crappy cheapo EF lenses, and finally due to budget, my final camera was fuji xt2 that I sold before the pandemic. My very first camera was rebel xti or something like that.. Hehe..
@@JustinMyersPhoto and sorry but I live in a country that even holding the camera in hand to test it out, is very very difficult thing to do. So that's the reason why I spent weeks just watching reviews while imagining it in my head.. Hahahaha..
@@torakun3573 ah okay, that makes more sense. Well, my suggestion would be the RP and nicer lenses like the 24-70 L, but since you’ve had experience with the RP already, what did you think of it?
@@JustinMyersPhoto well.. I didn't have the best experience because I was using a cheap lenses intended for dslr and I feel like the tech inside it was only fair for its price, so naturally when using it, I feel that it's a bit uninspired tbqh.
That's why this time I intend to change it. Native mount and better lenses and dabble in video aspect as well.
My only problem is the video quality, is 1080p enough? It's only for family viewing but often displayed in 4k tv.
Also do you have a problem with the 4k video files from canon r6? I have a decent laptop but I fear that it won't be enough..
Anyway..
Regardless of the existence of further reply from you, you got yourself a permanent subscriber in me.
Thank you for entertaining my silly dilemma and taking a time to write..
Greetings from Indonesia as well.🙏
