Performance wise, they both do that too, although to be fair to Canon, the Nikon Z8 (direct competitor to the R5) is 3 years younger. Even then, Canon is only probably going to match the Z8 with the R5II - that's not encouraging. I have been saying for quite some time that Canon is not only behind Sony in the sensor wars, but falling further behind. Sony is toying with them. I can imagine Sony dropping a A1II with a global shutter at 50mp a month or 2 after Canon drops its 45mp BSI stacked R1 lol.

Instead of Global Shutter and more speed I would like to finally see a noticeable image quality improvement in sensors. There haven’t been any big advances in a decade or so. When does a ISO6400 image finally look like it was taken at ISO800? How about more bits per colour channel in RAW footage? When will there be an alternative to Bayer and XTrans like technologies which don’t require interpolation? Still have high hopes for Foveon, but it will likely have noise limitations.

Start reading those reviews again of the r7 r10 and r50. See if they have what you need.

[@Gremlack13]

From a business sense it makes sense for canon to hold off on allowing third party as they fill in their own lenses like who and try to recoup r&d costs asap. But it does have a few year paining consumers. The aps-c opening first makes sense since most people getting into the aps-c lineup are people just beginning into photography with a “real” camera, so they aren’t going to want to buy anything expensive. It makes sense for sigma and tampon to just into that field first. I’m sure canon will open up full frame in the next year or two. If they don’t it will spell more trouble for them more likely than not. Can’t be all greed all the time.

[@simonmaduxx6777]

The problem with that also is that they didn't fill in anything. They pretty much made the worst versions of almost every lens they brought out. You couldn't really sell cheaper and slower lenses than what they possibly created for crop. Every lens got downgraded, the 24 to 50 is a lens meant for no one and is not even glass, the worst 18 to 55 ever.. they were trying to get awards for making trash products. Some of the lenses also use digital stretching to make a proper image.. so they cheaped out for the glass even on the cheap lenses. They'll probably make more money off of sigma selling lenses royalties that nobody buying their garbage lenses. Even worse they didn't bring out the 22 mm f2. Talk about super insulting to their customers. And then he talked it all off and just said it was a business decision in terms of keeping third party off. Whatever the Japanese version of wanker is, can an executives earn that title. Morons.

[@BrandonColePhotography]

I have said this since day one. The Day that Canon allows 3rd party manufactures to start making glass for their RF system is the day they jump ahead of Sony. The only two things really seperating Canon and Sony right now is how big Canon continues to make their RF bodies. They are starting to get just as big as DSLRs and the ability to purchase lenses from so many other manufactures. Now that canon is starting that process, and will start allowing users to purchase more then the Canon RF glass with more available options, Canon is gonna be the King of the mirrorless world now. The one big thing that seperated them both was the amount of available and AFFORDABLE glass.

I would not call Sigma lenses cheap. They just cost less although they are sometimes better than the Canon versions. A Sigma lens also has the advantage that Sigma allows you to change the mount for a moderate fee.

Canon is only good for the extremes (either overpriced or cr*ppy, but not much in between). So they lose many average pros and average prosumers, I suspect.

[@DaveHaynie]

Sony set out to conquer the professional camera market, and made a bunch of very smart moves. That included rapid evolution of FF Mirrorless bodies and open sourcing the E-mount. They had to move fast, because they understood that mirrorless systems from Canon and Nikon were inevitable. Nikon and Canon were dominant in the rangefinder, manual SLR, electronic SLR, and DSLR eras. And not by a little bit, but significantly. They had to pull all the stops out, and they ultimately did make it a three-way race. Canon in particular has had the lead since the EOS system was out, and also the kind of mentality that had them thinking more about their own products as cross-competition, versus others' products. I think Sony humbled them a bit on that -- they lost many photographers to Sony. But they still seem to believe that the world will come to Canon in the end. I know, when I moved to electronic film cameras, they made perfect sense. But after years of the "Cripple Hammer" (and your lens options can be seen as part of that, from the user's perspective) I left Canon for good. Others love them, of course, and the R5 was finally the camera everyone believed Canon could deliver. They even pretty much got their sensor business competitive again.

Im on sony, i want to switch back to Canon. Is a good ideea or not ?

[@JohnDoe-xm1ir]

If your current gear doesn't do the job, What you want to buy from Canon can do the job, if you have the finances for it, and if it's what you want, you should just do it.

Where does the Sony not produce good enough results? Canon, Nikon and Sony all produce excellent cameras it’s very easy to be seduced by apparent ‘better’ but ends up just being different. Billions of great images have been taken and will continue to be taken by cameras without eg. ‘global’ shutters.

Pentax dude.

[@anthonyt1427]

@@russellbaston974it’s the feeling for a lot of people that’s brought up this issue. When people switched from canon (or Nikon) to Sony, they lost their ergonomics and the feeling of the camera especially if you have larger hands. The feeling is different and some people don’t get used to it. Then there’s the system layout… that tends to be the biggest issue for people wanting to switch back to their old system. Sonys layout is a lot better now, but it’s still not as intuitive as most people would like to believe. There are some other things to, but overall that’s the reason why. There are times that people using Sony cameras don’t want to pick up their cameras and don’t feel inspired by their cameras. Believe it or not it’s the little things that Sony can do to improve that could make things better. Canon, Nikon and especially FujiFilm have better interfaces and pay more attention to connecting the photographer to the camera with the little things they do to make using their cameras easier.

[@HR-wd6cw]

So I'm not a Canon shooter but this is a bit of a letdown in some respects. Even Nikon and Sony have realized what third party (FF) lenses have done for their camera lines. I mean, you have to figure, even if they aren't buying your lens necesarily, they would have to buy your camera if they want to use some of the OEM Canon RF lenses. So you're getting a camera sale at least. At least Nikon is allowing Tamron to develop FF lenses for their Z system. Hopefully Canon comes around on this though as I think it will continue to hurt them more than help them in the long run if they don't. Interestingly, I'd say that Nikon is perhaps the most relxaed when it comes to third party options in genreal, because they don't impose artificial limitations on third party lenses (even ones that are licensed to be made with the Nikon Z mount). Sony, on the other hand, has limitations built-in (for example reduced burst rates, inability to use third party TCs, and I think in some cases, inability to use IBIS stabilization in some cases).

[@JohnScarrott]

I'm guessing the Canon 3rd party APS-C lenses can be used on FF set to 1.6x crop? My R3 would drop from 24MP to 9.3MP, an R5 would drop to 17.3MP. So maybe an idea for people with a FF that want one or two lenses that are only available in APS-C rather than buy an RF APS-C body just to get the cheaper lenses?. I just did some full Moon shots at APS-C crop as I'd have had to crop anyway, my R3 looking through my 9.25" telescope. I couldn't tell the difference between images using internal crop or software crop. Quite a few wildlife shooters use 1.6x too, and always seem happy with the results.

[@mikek4464]

I have this same question, what happens when you put one of these 3rd party APS-C RF-mount lenses on a Canon full-frame camera? I mean, both Canon's APS-C cameras and full frame cameras have the same RF mount. I'm guessing since the lens is designed for a smaller sensor it will clip the resulting image?

Ffs Jared I shown my mum the intro to this video because i think the dragged out letters and things are funny, but I didn’t notice the “rude gesture” (or maybe you were just throwing a dart!) before you pointed at the camera 😂😂🤦‍♂️

[@gmcmahon9558]

How about a Tamron 400 2.8?

[@sheeyam]

4:35 - he got used to it :D

[@BW_Maher]

Spending a lot of money on lenses that don't cover the entire RF frame is not a very good investment IMO. I think Canon knows this as well which is why they don't develop a lot of upmarket APS-C lenses. Makes sense to open that up to third parties. A couple of compact sub frame lenses makes sense, but beyond that full frame lenses will just be a better investment over the long haul. YMMV

[@HikingBob]

Canon has never made and never will make "L" type glass for anything other than full frame format, probably for much of the same reasons you mention.

[@dubbleA100]

We need a tamron 24-70 f2.8 G3 for the RF mount

[@anthonyt1427]

Bro. That’s true and that’s probably an awesome lens bro. But honestly… I think you need to invest in that 24-105 f/2.8 bro. Why you might ask? Then I’d say… “why not bro? Why not”. But that’s pretty much how the story goes bro. For any other additional questions please make sure to reach out to your local librarians! When you’re ready bro… when you’re ready!

5:18 To late! Canon can complain because this former Canon shooter went with another brand because of Canons heavy hand antics. (It was time to upgrade anyway, I just decided to lot look at Canon.)

if I'm paying for a Sigma or Tampon RF AF lens, which is inclusive of a Canon licensing cost, then I'd fucking sure as hell expect said lens to operate at all FPS..

I wanted the Tamron and Samyang lenses like 35+150mm f2-2.8 or 24-180mm f2-2.8 or 24-200mm f2-2.8 or new F4 lenses like 24-200mm F4 or 24-400mm F or F5.6 for traveling lenses.
