Biggest problem with Canon that it uses outdated decades old, non BSI-CMOS sensors even in newest models such as R6 mark II and has low sensitivity due to ridiculous megapixel counts or if they use later sensor they are huge like R3 or R1, what a shame. I like more Sony A7sIII. By now they should have been experimenting with SPAD or x1000 more sensitive graphene sensors to shring camera size, weight and cost.

nice video its a shame you dont have more subs.

How do I turn off the constant light? I turned it on accidentally

Will it be compatible with the canon R50? 😢

Thank you very much for your video. In light of Canon's possibilities. The 6R II would be quite a right choice.

Mic sound great Suggestion: Research about mouth clicks and how to mitigate (if you havent already)

For a casual photographer, is this Godox V1 flash unit enough? I would think so. I would think that instead of paying for a cheaper flash and then upgrade, I'd rather invest on the Godox V1 at the beginning and hang on to it. As I mentioned, I am a hobby, not a professional photograhger.

Not once has anyone ever questioned the megapixel count being subpar. Most customers can barely tell the differences. All they really want to know is how long it will take to receive the pictures.

arent they going to replace this lens with a mark 2?

do you attach your strap straight onto the grip mount? I never trust mine when the 28-70 is on there.

Great information, just subscribed. Keep up the great work

The r3 has a stacked 24mp sensor, the r6II doesnt (that makes the AF and read out speed different). Nice Review btw.

Hi, I'm one of the 5 :P

hi would you like to join me and my panel on one of my livestreams ?

At 2.37 you say the R6ii has 20 megapixels. I think, if you check, it actually has 24mp.

you look like a tech programmer in SF, and my college roommate, Jigar Desai, lol..nah, great video, my bro!

Haha bro the into instantly sold me as sub!! Here’s your 6th viewer!!

the sound is awesome

Easy choice, if it’s a professional work and you get paid for shoots and videography, go for the r5 If you’re just a hobbyist and love taking stills/videos for your own memories and or uploading to social media, then the r6 mk2

Hey, Joel. Thanks for your informative and interesting video. I am still using my Canon 90D. And am contemplating upgrading to one of these two camera's you mention. Even though the price for the R5 has come down plenty. I'm feeling compared to the up to date modern technology. As in the R6II. A more attractive buy.

I like the no overheating feature. I am also a fan of the no IBIS. Both of those cost me dearly with the R6. So when it cooked itself and spent 2 months back at Canon I walked away from Canon as a video platform. But I do miss the R6 for the stills. The R looks like the best of both worlds at a discount.

Awesome job! Subscribed!

Joel, you come over on camera very well I can't believe you only have 703 subs at this point but keep going my friend and they will come. So, I am a wedding photographer shoot R5 & R6 and R5II on order and have previously owned this lens but sold it. I have invested in 50mm and 85mm f1.2 and just about to pull the trigger on a 135mm f1.8mm. I also have a 15-35mm f2.8 but don't use it that much, but it's essential to have a wider lens for getting ready when the rooms are small. The reason I sold it was that it was not as sharp as the 50mm and especially the 85mm which is an amazing lens and this lens at 70 mm can't compete on image quality. That's not to say it's not good, but the two are not in the same league. This lens though has its place and I agree with you could shoot an entire wedding with one camera and this lens and you would get some great images. But to get some more unique images having f1.2 sets you apart. Having said all that I do miss the lens for events and other stuff I do so I am not ruling out re-buying it as it is extremely versatile and great to have if you want to just take one camera and one lens.

Thx great video, I'm at the point of upgrading from my r6 to something better

Exactly the video I was looking for. I'm trying to decide between the 2 and 3 pro for my Blackmagic Pocket 4k. Obviously, there's a big price difference, and I'm not sure if it's worth it???

You're so handsome. I think it was more than five.

I love this lens! I shoot weddings and event with this lens. It has paid for itself many times over. It is a challenge to use all day for weddings. It is not stabilize so using it as a hybrid video kit does not work. I get really shaky footage using a R5 and R6m2. I shoot with a heavy and light set up I use an R6m2 with the 28-70mm for photos and a R5 with the 35mm 1.8 for video. This works well. Great review!!

5 people watching 🤣😂🤣

I love your content Sir!!!! \

wonderful review.

great video! i was considering this lens for quite a while 6 months ago and went with the 50 1.2 instead. loving all the images you've posted, superb!

first

r62 and r5 idk which to pick for hybrid shooting I shoot both pictures and video heavy special American football, I’ve seen both with the 500 different prices money it’s not the question but which one would you pick between this 2 cameras if you had to today !!

Sound sounds awesome

Sharpness is a product of the lens. Detail is a product of the sensor. The 45mps camera has more detail not sharpness.

Thanks for the Video very informative...iam a photographer from South Africa i do more stills that Video , should i go for R6 II or should i go for R5?

Off course!!! Throw it away get A1 or A9Iii

NO get Sonny or Nikon, all Canon are fakes!!!

I just came across your video. Well explained plus Godox V1 is a good buy. The Godox V1 Pro is good too but too expensive.

Good video! Thanks for the info

The most important thing you did for me: Be understandable. So many times I open a video only to find the guy is not comprehended, with some foreign accent, in general. Number 2: Video was simple really focusing on what I "lovingly call- Mierda pixels" So in both instances, you fulfilled my needs. A great hug and a Thank You to you.😃

How about battery life?

r5 или r6m2 что выгодней в 2024 году для всего?

I liked the video, I bought my R3 for 4k….no regrets…..I am actually buying a 2nd…..I don’t see the need to upgrade like a phone every 4 years…….the canon 5d mark iii is still a great camera….i think as long as you have cf express it doesn’t matter, bandh had a sale for a 512g card for $140….and 1 it’s really all you need to get by with in my opinion….i would actually buy 2-3 if your doing weddings to back it up….but I’m a wildlife shooter and the camera is fast and I love it….

Brother, Can you suggest me lens and camera for jewelry videography ?

TODAY IT IS ONLY 4000 USD.........😂😂😂😂.

You didn’t show the button to turn on the model light on the back of flash 🤷🏽‍♂️

Does the screen auto rotate when you flip it upside down?

It’s a good camera but it isn’t worth $6,000.00. It’s worth about $4,500.00.

Really tempted to get the classic R6 over the mark II. It's on sale in my country for equiv of EUR 999 at the moment. That's half the price of the mark ii.....
