    Edited: Just got the R and the way you can shoot photos and then quickly record is setup your video settings in C3 mode, then go to photo mode. Then while you are in photo mode you hit the record button on top and you are recording video with the C3 settings video settings! Mind blown, this is a game changer! Hope that helps Pete!

    Peter I have loved watching your videos but this seems to me like a commercial for Canon who buy all intents and purposes have failed to deliver with their first Mirrorless camera which doesn't come near the competition namely - Sony A7iii, Nikon Z6 Z7 and Fujifilm XT3 as a serious film maker its seems a bit disingenuous that you are trying to sell this camera as a viable option to other film makers! In fact, I think you did something similar with the Canon 6D Mkii when that came out and subsequently flopped. I get that you have got to make a living a I guess company sponsorships and affiliations are one way to go about it but seriously that is putting a huge company like Canon ahead of your humble viewers looking to improve their film making skills who are being sold on tech that just doesn't cut it. I was a faithful canon user for many years loved their cameras (still do) but as a professional film maker I had to put company loyalty aside and choose a camera that would deliver truly cinematic films hence i switched to Sony. If Canon came out with a camera that beat Sony at their own game, I'd switch in a moment because my clients deserve the best the market has to offer. Personally Peter, I think you need to put your viewers ahead of company affiliation to Canon, and judging by a ton of similar comments below I think others think that too.

    • @MatthewVandeputte
      @MatthewVandeputte 5 років тому +57

      The mirrorless cams you mentioned might have better specs, but a spec sheet is just that, a bunch of numbers on paper. I have a 1DXMkII and choose to bring my 6DMkII instead most of the time. (the camera that "flopped") Same for the R, it might not have the specs that you focus on so much, it might be a better camera to use!

    Half Truths: Canon intentionally limits you in ways that are inexcusable IMHO.
    - Selling you a full frame camera and then NOT allowing full frame 4k
    - not going 1080 120FPS
    - not stabilizing the sensor
    Sony & Panasonic both offer these basics.
    what they lack is the Canon color and the Dual Pixel AF.
    Sony has upgraded their focus systems though - getting close.
    Panasonic has upgraded their color in the GH5 which looks really nice - almost too clean though.

    • @ZilveriCosas
      @ZilveriCosas 5 років тому +11

      I dont think its an excuse. You want the best for your money, then why are these companies trying to limit their stuff? Sony and Panasonic offer more, why cant Canon/Nikon do it? At this point they are just another "Apple"-like company.

    • @rattoh
      @rattoh 5 років тому +2

      Canon can't offer these options because their sensor technology sucks and is behind by many years. Maybe next years model won't have a recycled sensor from 3 years ago with technology from 5 years ago.

    • @Jonboy2312
      @Jonboy2312 5 років тому +1

      They've been doing this since at least the 300D / first gen Digital Rebel (the all-silver 6mp one). It had the innards of the 20D, yet plenty of features (bracketing comes to mind) were deliberately disabled in firmware and required 3rd party hacks to be unlocked. That was the camera that forever destroyed Canon's credibility in my eyes. The only Canon products I've touched since were their printers, about which I've got no complaints.

    I picked this camera up and love it. My own perspective is all about personal skills and the functionality needed to learn and get better in this hobby (it's a hobby for me). In my case, this camera has everything I need at the moment and is working very well in the "field" - although, I recognize that spec to spec comparisons would make it seem weaker in relation to a couple other cameras. In my actual use of it - it is really, really good.

    I love it when reviewers of this camera mention the 1.7 crop factor in 4k ' well just get another lens' !
    Yeah sure as I have lots of money to spend and instead of carrying around a smaller form factor camera as this is benefit of mirrorless. I can carry more lenses instead !

    • @TyroneLT
      @TyroneLT 5 років тому +6

      This is well said. It is a glaring fault of the camera. If people want a crop sensor camera then they'd buy one with appropriate lenses on the market to fit that crop (ie. the GH5).

    • @alexworks9659
      @alexworks9659 5 років тому +2

      Red and Arri are “cropped” comparatively, super 35. That’s not a big deal as people seem to make it out to be.

    • @TyroneLT
      @TyroneLT 5 років тому +7

      @@alexworks9659 true but nobody is expecting an arri or red to be full frame and there are more than enough lenses available to fit said crop. Hence why if arri comes out with a new camera, users don't have to worry about focal length changing. Like I said. If people want a crop camera there are more than enough options. The issue with the Canon is its a stop gap until they get the tech to do 4k full frame with no issues. Which at that point will making lenses purchased to fit a 1.7x crop useless. In short the people who have an issue with the crop simply aren't looking for a cropped sensor on a full frame body. It might not matter to you and that's cool but it does matter to other people. Everyone is entitled to their preference and thankfully we are about to enter a time where there more choices camera-wise then ever before for hybrid shooters.

      Yes, and put on a ef-s lens and speaking of getting better Quality with log in the same sentence is a little awkward... poor lens but good settings only to compeed the “holding-back“-politics of canon? How stupid is that? Use crop if you want, but dont make it look like something good, it isnt. Period. And there are other issues and you know it Peter. You wanted a ff mirrorless, now you like crop in video? Not logical.

      @JesseDriftwood 5 років тому +33

      The record button on top will always start rolling a video using whatever your C3 video mode is set to. So you can have that set to auto exposure (if you just want to make sure you get the shot no matter your settings) or you could have it set to your 120fps (if you are a weirdo like me and will still use the mode even in 720p) or you can set it to full manual in 60fps so that it keeps the same settings your photos were just in (this is almost certainly how I will use it).

The HD is great, and once you get used to the menu it's a breeze. The specs make it sound underwhelming but trust me this camera is fassst.

      Sony was just got out of the hospital for being crippled with the lenses for so long. Still can't compete with Canon's legion of lenses. For the price, the new EOS R has some features many cameras don't have between the body, lens adapters and new control rings. Even the ergonomics rules, enabling all fingers to fit. But to know that the EOS R and following models will take every EF, EF-S and RF lens is amazing. The EOS R won't have some features, but it has more than enough that even other manufacturers will have to make changes to adapt to some of it.

    I am a Canon user for over two decades now (I switched from film to digital in 1997 with the Canon PowerShot 600). My FF continues to be an aging 5dMk2 and I am doing some video with my SL2. I have been waiting for Canon to catch up with Sony on the mirrorless/4k platform ... and, sadly, ... I am still waiting. You convey enthusiasm for the R - this may be, in part, owing to having sold a part of your soul to Canon (I am not accusatory, I get it that you run a business and all - but, you did magic ... which is theater ... so the enthusiasm may just be theater - just saying). My reaction to the R system is ... meh.
    I did a hiking tour in Portugal earlier this year. Both guides were photographers and both were using Sony. I was captivated with the build quality, performance and images they were garnering. If not for the huge expense and time/energy to learn new menus, etc., I'd be temped switch. Meanwhile ... I will hold onto my aging 5dMk2 and SL2 and likely pour my resources into a DJI Mavic2 Pro once they get the firmware tricked out. Canon needs to up its game on the mirrorless platform ... and soon.

      i totally agree, Canon and Nikon mirrorless are 3 years behind sony technology and Olympus which has impressive results on a micro 4/3 sensor. With 2.5 Millions subscribers, Peter is one of the main engine of Canon propaganda in the North America and he is going to not be fair for the sake of publicity. I love Peter's work and he was the trigger for me to start invest more time in educating me in photography and last year he was a guru for me, but to be honest to switch from DSLR to Canon R is the worst idea you can have right now. Nikon embarrassed itself with the launch of their mirrorless system and i expected Canon to be more spectacular, but they are both behind the mirrorless technology. So stick to your current gear and if you want to buy a mirrorless wait for the releases which are about to come from Fuji, Panasonic and Olympus which i think will be the leader of the game.
      P.S. I own a Nikon d5100 from 2011 and I can't afford a new camera, but when I'll make the upgrade it will probably be a Canon DLSR

It felt so quick and responsive compared to some EVF’s and it was SO sharp! Everything else felt very responsive about the camera as well and the menus were really good as always. I’m just bummed about the crop in 4K but beyond that it was pretty sweet.

    Hi Peter. I hope my views are not taken in a wrong way. We all know your love for canon. But don't you think of all the mirrorless cameras launched recently, Fuji XT-3 took the cherry? I mean for the price point and the features (4k, 60fps, 4.2.0, 4.2.2 to list a few), its overtaken both Nikon and canon by big margin. Again this is not criticism but just an observation. Peace :)

      It doesn't take the cherry, because it's not FF. Everything else looks amazing (though I haven't tried it), but it can't go 1on1 with the others due to its smaller sensor. That said, I'd probably get a xt3 over the eos r.

    • @kunaltewari8059
      @kunaltewari8059 5 років тому +1

      Agreed it’s a smaller sensor but then again not every needs a FF. crop sensor is for masses. Even in that fielding crop sensor mirrorless I don’t see Nikon or canon anywhere near it. I used FF for ten years before switching back to crop sensor with XT-3 release. So far verrrrey happy

    • @msandersen
      @msandersen 5 років тому

      Kunal Tewari - I use Canon and Fuji, I don’t see how the X-T3 is a better choice for him as a vlogger and photographer other than it having some better video features but without the dual-pixel autofocus and it being smaller, when he is used to the Canon way and has an existing selection of great FF Canon lenses. I use Fuji when speed is not imperative, when it is just for myself and I want a lighter setup, but if I want reliability, great battery, ergonomics, fast focusing, and quick and easy adjustments of settings on the fly without moving my eye from the viewfinder, my Canon is a far better choice, plus I have some better big fast lenses for it, which due to the small grip on the Fuji is less ideal for larger lenses.

    • @kunaltewari8059
      @kunaltewari8059 5 років тому +2

      Martin Andersen dear Martin. I guess you completely missed the point/context of my message above here. In post earlier I never recommended for him to use Fuji over canon for vlogging. Well in that case canon EOS R misses that mark by leaps and bounds (huge 4K crop, unless you use heavy wide angle lens). My message here was when it comes to mirrorless cameras (FF or crop sensor), Fuji has gone way ahead of canon. So just be coz he is a canon user or probably paid by them, you cannot promote a shitty camera when it’s vlogging capabilities are hugely limiting. I am a huge fan of Peter McKinnon but that doesn’t mean I have to blindly accept everything he suggests.

      Are you sure? Apple typically pushes the envelope when it comes to design and innovation. Mirrorless cameras have been around for nearly 10 years, and most of the features Canon are crowing about have been around for a while on other systems, and it still looks as if they carved it out of a hunk of old tyre rubber. They didn't push themselves to truly innovate anything with the EOS R because they are still releasing new DSLRs as well, which is simply astounding. I'll admit it is a solid offering and I wouldn't complain if I had to use it, but honestly aside from the ability to shoot in -log it feels like a mid-range camera, rather than a professional workhorse.

    Every video I have watched so far about the Nikon Z cameras and the Canon EOS-R cameras has the same content in the comment section. You guys are comparing the EOS-R to Sony (which is what I use), but Pete is just comparing it to other Canons because he is an admitted Canon fanboy who was never going to switch... which is cool. He is only contrasting this camera to his current rig and saying how it will improve his work or not, which doesn’t feel like he’s trying to sell me on anything ... and the things he is most enthused about are legit improvements.... like that bad ass variable ND filter in the adapter.

      Nailed it!!!! As someone with a substantial investment in canon gear, like a lot of others we are unlikely to switch brands when we all know full well that lead tech is always ebbing and flowing between brands. Canon is a massive company that will undoubtedly serve their market very well, even when they are not first to market, they will be a leader in top quality gear and incredible performance. I dont need to switch every time someone is a few minutes ahead in the race to market when I know that Canon will release a tank that will last, with top notch service to back it up.

    Man Awesome timing. About 7 Years ago, I stopped shooting photography because of other commitments in like. Now, that I am able to get back into photograpy again I have to start doing research on what is out there for me to tap into. I do miss my 5D MKIII. However, I feel like there are some many platforms out there that can help me get back into photography again. Now Canon decides to release such a great camera and new platform, I am in need of this set-up. Thanks Peter I appreciated it so much for the information and reviews.

      older fuji cameras simply doesn't even compete in the video department. The X-T1 a few generations back for example has horrid false color and moire, The sony A7 from around the same time smokes it out of the water, at least as far as video is concerned. Though the last and this generation improves things immensely, they still haven't shake the "don't take a video on a fuji" image yet.

    No 120fps is a real shame. Can't think as to why they wouldn't include it here.. they must know it is a major selling point for Sony's mirrorless range. In face, it is what has been tempting me to switch to Sony for a while. When this was revealed I was over the moon to think finally Canon were releasing a mirrorless camera that could shoot at 120fps and I could not even think about going to Sony - I was shocked at finding out it isn't there. Maybe in 3 more years...

    Come on, even APS-C camera such as A6300 which is few years old now does 10 bit with recorded or 8 bit in camera S-log 2 and S-log 3 and you can even achieve 12 stops of dynamic range for well under USD 1,000 and no cropped 4K. Take A6500 and you also get IBIS. This canon R is overpriced and already too old given the specs...

      I have Sony A7 but still, I don't think Canon EOS R is a bad choice if you have the money and if you have already used Canon and has a good collection of lenses, just because the integration with existing Canon lenses and EOS R is much more smooth than another brand. This make sense if you want to go mirrorless which is suitable for specific photographers only (I have talked with some wedding for example and they think it would be better for them for example)

    You can set the record button to auto record based off a specific custom number. So, if custom 2 is are set up for video, you can stay in M and when you press record it will use the settings from custom 2. When you stop recording it will automatically go back to your M settings.

    The innovations with that mount, the better data transfer, control rings, built in ND on the adapter etc. are all fantastic! If I were only ever doing 1080p this could basically be a baby cinema camera, but with full frame and 10bit over HDMI. I think the system, however, needs a better body. As people say, the severe crop and the single slot make it hard to recommend for 4k. It's so severe, at about a 1.7/1.8x crop, that you may as well get the GH5s with 10 bit internal at a 2x crop for the same price, with cheaper, smaller lenses like the Veydra or Voigtlander sets that cost as much for the whole 6 or 4 lens kit as one or two EF mount cine primes.
