R7 and 90D share the same sensor. And shooting the flowers at sun hard light with the 90D and the same flowers with no direct sunlight doesn't seams to be a good way to make a comparison. I have a 90D and I will keep using it for a long long time...

These are cameras why is everyone assuming that people want to only learn about the video element of the camera? Not everyone buys these cameras to shoot video.... Where is the still image element to this review. ?

Honestly you review is worthless. Sorry

The footage on both cameras was shot on different focal lengths so it does not help the viewer decide which camera is doing better. There should not be such a big difference in bokeh between 2 APS-C cameras and R7 appears to have too much bokeh. I've seen footage between eos 250D and R5 and the image quality and bokeh are very close in good light so 90D and r7 should not be so different after all.

2024?

Is R7 good for KZbin? I have a KZbin channel and I'm thinking of upgrading from EOS 750.. What do you suggest to me?

I bought the phantom 3 when it first came out for about 700 dollars. That drone was stolen from me by my ex "boss" who i hesrd gave it to his kids as a Christmas present. I bought a used P3 with carry case on ebay about 4 years later for 300 and it worked great till i broke gimble about 2 years ago. I just bought my third P3 for 65 bucks on ebay (drone only) and it works perfect. Have new gimble sensor on the way for my other. I have taken the P3 up to 1,650 feet....In unrestricted airspace of coarse.. handles great. Have flown it 7,000 feet away over open ocean and back from a moving boat. Have flown in gail force wind over open ocean to a half mile away and back, landing on a moving steel hulled ship. Have lost signal for 20 min over water, climbed to the highest roof i could find, caught signal on 2% and flew it back, catching it as it died Amazing drone. Will be buying the next 60 dollar one I find.

Awful accent mate nice video

Did you shoot the 90D in live view mode? This mode lets you use Dual Pixel autofocus rather than the inferior phase detect. I have the 90D and R7, and if people aren't interested in shooting the 90D in Live view mode (from the back LCD), then the R7 is a clear winner. Using the 90D in Live view, the autofocus results will be more similar between the two. If price is no concern, definitely get the R7. Just IMHO, but this is a nice review.

I bought one this morning with a backpack and a fly more for $225. It's still worth that much!

What about of the construccion of r7 ?

I was torn between getting an R7, R8, or 90D for my next upgrade. I ultimately decided to go with the 90D mainly because the specs are good enough for my needs and there is a far more robust selection of lenses available on the EF platform.

Hi, I’ve stumbled down the rabbit hole of wanting to replace/upgrade my camera. I currently have a (now discontinued) canon 200d which was perfect for my first ever camera. Mainly used for video and some photography. Now I’m really , really REALLY needing some advice … deciding whether to go for canon 90d, canon mark 5d iv, or canon R7 . The R7 looks attractive to me because of : the autofocus capabilities and the newer technology that come with mirrorless , I’m scared because of not knowing how to use it compared to my traditional camera , I’m embarrassed to say I have only ever used auto on my camera but I’m going to learn how to use manual. Also slightly worried about the ‘overheating’ rumours/problems with mirrorless, but apparently shouldn’t be an issue if I don’t intend to do shoot 30min + .. I’m interested in the canon mark iv because it seemed EVERYONE thinks it’s a beast and amazing but then after research I saw it’s better primarily for photography AND it doesn’t have a flip out screen (a feature I currently have and love) and then obviously the 90d …. I think is a really really good option as it’s a step up (several steps) to what I have and probably the most familiar one I’d be used to .. just scared of thinking the R7 is more superior I think is my problem… would really appreciate your thoughts.

Got mine used a year ago, came with a case, extra battery and blades for $100.... Works great.

I preferred it when your collar was undone

I just got one for $100 bucks lol battery and charger

😊

What camera did you shot this video with? The auto focus was great.

I hate when people give a generic way to get the height right when all of my ties are extremely different lengths lol also is your tie clip meant to be sideways like that? Looks weird to me

Reports I am hearing is they are not hovering well. Everyone is recalibrating compass, controller and IMU. Still not solving the drifts. Did DJI do this on purpose? Why should it not fly as when new if the drone is undamaged and the last firmware was a solid performer. I think the Mini 2 is a solid performer to start with. But remember Drone Remote ID is on the horizion with the FAA.

Thanks for the comparison! I might go for 90D.

Dominic, please help!! The DJI GO app, running my Phantom 3 Standard stoped showing ANY camera related buttons, bars. Thus I cannot take any pictures or shoot a video. No access to that stuff. Please help!! Maestro Smirnov, 73 California

Do you think anyone will ever make a review on the r7 and 90d actually taking photos, that they were made to do.

Muy buen trabajo mi amigo. Realmente genial.

Mine keeps dropping the video feed - help please?

Just because YOUR 18-150 was faulty doesnt mean this is typical, in fact all things i read about the 18-150 were damn happy, and its in fact the only nice, native APS-C lens, anything else needs to be adapted or RF full frame lenses. I wish now i would have bought the 18-150, but i though i could get around with a similar and bigger aperture EF lens (which is in fact bigger and heavier, especially extremely front heavy with the RF EF adapter, the RF-S 18-150 is nice balanced, awesome zoom range and stabilizer, just a little bit too slow) I wish canon would release something like a affordable and small RF-S 15-45 2.8 or similar for wider stuff and somewhat portrait/bokeh capable in normal and slightly tele range.

Thank u for the informative video :) Love your Jesus 💖

I thought the pictures from the r7 looked like crap. Do you need glasses or do I? Seriously I am happy with the 90 d and thought the pics on it were better. Everyone has their own taste.

Y so hard to chose! 90d or r7 wahhhhhhhhhhhh😢. Also knowing I want ff mirrorless soon 😢

What's your thoughts on the R7. I have the Canon 90D and want to make it my 2nd body, and I'm looking for a main body (Mirrorless)

Great video Dominic! Btw, what were the picture profiles and settings (sharpness, contrast, saturation, & color tone) you set to film the major part of this video (the "talking head part")? Did you use the Sigma 18-35m at 35mm? Which light did you use and at what intensity? I´ll apreciate your answer. Greetings from Brazil

I had the Phantom 1 a while back, got it for free after my buddy sunk it into a pond. I opened it up, cleaned it up, and replaced very few parts. Later I sold it. I missed it, but yesterday I just got a Phantom 3s with extras, 2 batteries, the camera (gimbal needs some TLC) and a very nice DJI branded back pack case all for $20! In 2022 it's still a great drone! Love it! I watched this video to get some more info about it, and very happy with my purchase. Parts seem to be getting harder to locate :/

Thank you for the comparison. There are so many variables though. The 90D footage does not look accurate to really how it shoots. What setting was it on for the shots? Was the sigma lense calibrated via the usb dock? What color/image profile(s) were the videos shot in? Any post production? Even different times of day will produce different light, angles, etc. Would like to know more

I just bought the R7 and 18-150mm kit two days ago and the lens works flawlessly. There's a new firmware update that wasn't on my camera and I installed it. The camera came with fw 1.0.1 and the latest is fw 1.1.0. I installed that before trying the camera/lens, so maybe you need the firmware update?

We’re planning to buy canon camera first time buyer what is the best for pictures & filming is it R7 or 90d ty .

Sorry, cannot agree with you. The clips you showed, the 90D outputs looked far better.

i bought mine for 250 usd. Worst thing is the short range and that its so damn big. If i would have bought a drone today, i would definetley have put in some extra money and bought like a mavic with longer range and its smaller.

I love my 90D and I have been hoping Canon would make an RF camera with simular specs and the R7 is that mirrorless version. I said I'd never get rid of my full frame 5D mark III. But I may do a trade in at B&H and apply the amount I get for it to the purchase of an R7 and an EF to RF adapter. I'd still keep my 90D. I enjoy making videos and having two simular cameras for video would be great I think to get multiple angles on a film.

Great video would love to see you do more comparisons like a portrait photoshoot/video session where you can also get the model to move around the frame to compare the autofocus of the 2 cameras.

That's funny. Error 60 appeared when I used the 70-200 F2.8 RF for my R7. Amazing camera tho. Very powerful with the 24-70 F2.8, and excited to try more lenses with it.

You video is good the volume is way to low

I got a warning but twisted the lens and it worked. If it still doesn't work just RMA it and Canon should replace it.

Thanks for this! Was just gifted a used Phantom 3 Pro. Grateful to hear your thoughts. Love the Divine Mercy poster!

The IBIS, you forgot the R7 IBIS...

2022 just picked one up for £150 in the UK the drone feels great not to complex for a starter and does what I need

Hi there!

I've been flying drones for about seven years now. I have a mavic zoom with smart controller and a mini 2 as well as several cheap drones just for fun. I'm a retired aerospace worker and needed something to keep me busy (out of trouble). I recently had the opportunity to buy a phantom 3 standard that is in excellent condition from a family member who just didn't have the same love of flying them. I've modified it to have FAA aircraft standard lighting (red on port (left) only, green on starboard (right) only with a few 5mm white LEDs facing forward. All are powered off of the motherboard and except for the white lights were an easy modification (have to drill holes). I'm still on the fence about tinkering with the up and down link antennas. A range booster for the camera and controller may be on the way too. After flying the others I can say that it is definitely a heavy stick drone meaning that the flight characteristics are about what I expected for such a heavy machine. It definitely goes through battery power faster than the others but it will handle some wind that the other lighter drones will not. I've had it at 200 feet AGL (above ground level) in roughly 12 mile an hour winds hovering and it was fairly stable with minimal drift of about one foot each direction due to gusting. My battery lasted about one third less because of the wind. Even taking off and landing in a cross wind was manageable. The camera is fine for my purposes as I mainly record video of flights in case of a wipeout lol. Ironically the exact P3S that I now have is the very first drone that I had ever seen and I'm glad I was given the opportunity to buy it. I would agree that it can still be a fun machine to fly. Just understand it's features and limitations and you'll be fine.

Such a tear full agony

It’s all about use! I liked that you mentioned to work around the limitations. I just picked up a P3S for a great price. I just need it for a few shots once in a while. For now, it is a great starter drone for me.
