What people don't appreciate is that the white paint used on Canon cameras is very expensive. Developed originally by DARPA from recovered alien technology at UAP crash sites, per gram it is more expensive than gold. The thin red line on L series lenses is made from a dye only found in one place in the world at the top of an inaccessible Tibetan mountain guarded by mystical Monks. The glass is formed from an extra galactic meteorite found in the Antarctic by Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton in 1908. This explains the very high cost of Canon White L series lenses. But this does not explain the high cost of black non-L series lenses where the bodies are made from bioplastic using recovered cooking oil and the lenses from recycled bottle bank glass.
I said before that Canon always paints L lenses of 70-200 and longer as white. It's entirely possible the lens will be offered in both colors, which would be a first.
Video is better using CL2, stills isn't as good, but the difference is minor. I'd say it's similar to the Z8. Depends on electronic or mechanical as well.
@@OrdinaryFilmmaker 👍 agree difference negligible on stills … even compared to r3… which is mega… at 45mp… our r3 is mega in low light and low noise and DR… if this matches this in 45 mp… perfect… still wish it had r3 body… which just fits like a glove.. and duel cfast 😎
DpReview did the testing and this is a quote from their article discussing dynamic range between the R5 1 and R5 II: "In what's becoming a familiar story, there appears to be a trade-off between speed and dynamic range on the EOS R5 II's sensor. If you underexpose to protect highlights in your image, then try to make use of the shadows, by brightening them (which is the main mechanicsm by which you're most likely to really push at the limits of a large sensor camera's DR), you'll find your shadows are noisier than those of the EOS R5. And, comparing shots taken at the same exposure but differing ISOs, you can see that you need to apply more amplification to overcome this read noise, than you did with the original EOS R5. It's not until you get to ISO 800 that the image starts to match the performance you get by shooting at ISO 6400, which suggests that, if this is a dual coversion gain design, it's switching to its high gain mode at a higher ISO (The EOS R5 switched over at ISO 400)."
Hi Simon, when Canon can release 3 battery grips, they can also offer the same lens in 3 colors: white for stills, black for filmmakers, and grey for hybrid shooters 😛 By the way, I believe they did some EF-M kit lens in multiple colors in order to match the color of the body ..
Is this power zoom function the same as on the 24-105 2.8? If so, it would be nice if Canon offered a non-power zoom version so that consumers can save a few hundred bucks, especially since a lot of people will never use that function.
White lenses look better imo, and the heat resistance is definitely a feature white offers. I doubt demand on this will merit Canon making it in two colors
I wish the "regular" RF 70-200 f/2.8 were black. The attention the white lens attracts from photo subjects and crowds is not a good thing. As for "Z" lenses? I only shoot stills. I don't want the extra ring or the added holes. Those lenses aren't for me.
Enjoy this channel but it'll be nice if you didn't talk about the preorder links or whatever else we can buy though your website on ever single video!! It's already on the video we can see it!!!
So, Canon has a lens line up full of holes, with people turning to competitors for their comprehensive glass selections, yet they're releasing updates of recent models?

XD Comment made my day...
Wish you had the Rolling Stones "Painted Black" playing for the opening b-roll. LOL.

The RFS 10-18. I grabbed one at around $400(can) for my trip to Cuba around Christman. Its a nifty little guy.
I can't say I'd ever buy a power zoom lens, especially when the add on part is a grand
I heard that the new sensor in the Canon R5 Mark II has s dynamic range that is not as good as the original R5, just wondering if this is true 🤔

Phonton photos for your answer 😎

@@alisonandguywildlifephotographalways good to spend $4300 on a new camera with "negligible differences" 😂

You’re well in your way to making this your passion job. 😎 Keep up the great work!
Thanks Mark

the grips probably cost like $10 to make.
Any news on the 28-70 mark II?

you could consider a lenscoat .. just received one for my 200-800 and now people stop staring at it ..
Please Canon give us a black RF70-200, you do not need to have every lens in white. 🥰

video glass NEEDS to be black BECAUSE white reflects into surfaces - cameras and glass need to be black for cinema/video ideally.
u dont really want to talk about the recent canon rumours about r5ii DR performance? really?
Already did...
Yep...he's already got a video about it.
@@Derk2k3M1 nah i mean the recent one on the photononphoto site featured in canonrumors

Does it matter?
If you're shooting outside in the sun all day long, yeah, it can make a difference
@@OrdinaryFilmmaker fair point. I've wondered why Sony and Canon had white 70-200 and Nikon went with black
