DPReview TV: Canon EOS 90D Review

[@asadsultan1208]

10/10 youtube subscribers have told me personally that they loved the intro. Ohh yeah babyy

[@kingsamvisuals]

Are these guys a couple?

[@Traumglanz]

Can confirm #1

[@268FLAME]

The Intro's Golden!

[@girijaa1]

I bought one, love it. Had them all, from 10D all the way to 90D.

[@jeffstanley4593]

Can you compare it to the 50D in a few sentences? Thanx

[@noctilucera7585]

Id like o hear it too, thinking About upgrading from my 50D

[@AbrahamArthemius]

Honestly as a 70D user, i will definitely go for this one instead of M6II for an upgrade just for the long battery life i can get with a DSLR camera, plus improved AF for OVF & live view,and more video features (compared to 70D) are also a nice touch.

[@Traumglanz]

I wonder if the EVF-DC2 could be compatible with the 90D for those moments when you just would prefer an EVF.

[@JoshLittleYo]

Im upgrading from the 70D too

[@lim2001burger]

I love how there’s always a shot of Jordan crying in the foetal position on the floor...should replace the old DPreview test scene 🤣

[@juanquispe3494]

Legend says Manny Ortiz is still running away from Chris.

[@darkstepwarrior88]

That last shot on that 'island' was compelling

[@IndigoEyePhotography]

It's also worth noting that the 90D allows shooters to keep their viewfinders even when shooting with external flash or triggers. Also, it has a proper tilt-flip screen for shooting at high/low angles even in portrait orientation. I had passed the M50 for so long because I was hoping that the next M flagship would incorporate the same features, but what we got instead was a glorified M3.

[@akareject]

I picked up the 90D based on your early review/M6 Mark II comparison video. And I honestly love my 90D! I already have a 5D Mark IV and the 90D compliments it very well. It's lighter and great with the shorter lens. Easy to swap between the two in a pinch. Also, I don't think you can overstate the 120 fps full HD video. That was the selling point for me and it lives up to my expectations. The 120 FPS video in a studio setting has been super clean. I'll be putting it to work in a few weeks during an engagement shoot in NYC. That will be the real test. But so far, I am very happy with my purchase and have found both reviews you have done to be helpful and accurate.

[@07wrxtr1]

How is the image quality vs the 5d IV? I'm debating the 90d vs a cheap 5ds for landscape use only + 16-35 F4. Already have the 80d + 100-400 II which has done fine for wildlife use.

[@akareject]

@@07wrxtr1 The few shots I've taken with it seem good. Real test is in a couple of weeks at that engagement shoot. I can update you after that. The two big differences I notice right away from the 5D are weight and controls. The 90D is significantly lighter than the 5D which I really appreciate. However, I prefer the dials on the 5D over the 90D. My fat fingers are struggling with back dial the most.

[@jerryb.7021]

@@akareject yes, please let us know how the 90D compares to the 5d Mark IV in low light as far as clarity/noise. And dynamic range in normal conditions. I'm trying to decide between EOS R(which i heard has same sensor as the 5D Mark IV) and the 90D. The newer sensor in the 90D might be able to compete pretty well.

[@Monoperty]

Canon have just announced that 24fps will be available to all their cameras released in 2019, via a firmware update 👍

[@Traumglanz]

Some Video needs an update ^-^

[@FuckYouTubeForHandles]

Such a great achivement for Canon...

[@AcidTripwire]

The annoying thing about the megapixels arms race is that I would rather have improved low light/high ISO performance and dynamic range... But increased resolution is what sells to consumers because to them more megapixels = better camera

[@operatora588]

Nothing wrong with having more megapixels. If cameras were 20 MP a few years ago. A new 32 MP sensor + improved processor can give the same or even better low light performance in 2019. In my opinion both resolution and low light performance should improve in a balanced way.

[@AcidTripwire]

@@operatora588 Very true! But you only get so much benefit from increasing resolution - unless you're planning on blowing up photos to huge sizes like billboards, you don't need it (even if you are, big prints like that can have a low DPI). If you're using that higher resolution to make huge crops, especially with APS-C cameras, you're going to run into the physical limitations of the lens, and then there's your shutter speed and hand shake, etc. At that point I would suggest to maybe get a longer lens or move closer lol. If a camera with more megapixels can have the same image quality, I would rather have less megapixels and better image quality instead. But that's just a preference.

[@huyked]

I agree. I would love a world class, out of this world lowlight beast! I have the a7S II and I want moaaaaaarrrr! ;D I don't care about the megapixel (other than at least shoot 4K video).

[@GungKrisna12]

No wonder why mobile phones has ludicrously huge number of megapixels

[@huyked]

@Reuel T That's the point. I want to limit the megapixels so that the photosites are more concerned with obtaining light, not getting more fine detail. Please reference your megapixel numbers for film. I'm getting number ranges that are all over the place.

[@tomas_horn]

Chris' face expression when touching joystick is priceless :)

[@dragonstone6594]

I don't even care for the 90D I just watch for Chris and Jordan.

[@Bigfarmer8]

Totally digging the intro :-) Something noticable: after viewing you while vlogging in 4K on the 90D and going back to the GH5 footage, your face suddenly turned a kind of greenish yellow.

[@smartestDEV]

The production quality of this video is even better than normal. Great job team!

[@gohumberto]

I'm a Canon shooter (6D full-frame and M50 mirrorless APSC). I'm always totally underwhelmed by new Canon releases, like everyone. However..... Bleeding-edge features are not what Canons are about. After a while you realise that they just work. They get a job done with the minimum of effort. They are reliable and intuitive to use. That's why so many Pros still use the 5D series cameras, because their livelihood depends on getting the shot. I don't need 4K so my M50, with Viltrox speedbooster suits me fine. As much as I loved the 70D and 80D I think the days of the enthusiast APSC DSLR are coming to an end. The portability of the Mirrorless cameras makes them a dream for the enthusiast. I rarely go walkabout with my 6D now, it's always the M50 I grab (with the superb 22mm f/2)

[@rafaelunplugged]

Go Humberto! Totally agree. 5dm3 / 6ds with L glass for weddings and work M50 for fun and just back to what you like. Shooting. Can’t wait to get the 22m. The m50 really shines with its native lenses and the viltrox really helps open up more creativity if you wanna add the weight of the glass.

[@AlBroMedia]

THE 24FPS FIRMWARE UPDATE IS OUT :D Firmware changes: Firmware Version 1.1.1 incorporates the following enhancements and fixes: 1. The option to capture both 4K and Full HD movies in the frame rate of 23.98p has been newly added. 2. Fixes an issue where error code "Err 01" may be displayed when using EF85mm F1.8 USM or EF100mm F2 USM lenses.

[@sleepingbanshee_]

That is some DRTV Kai intro.

[@tomburke5311]

I’m a traditional (D)SLR enthusiast photographer of a certain age, and for me, this camera is perfect. In fact I’ve just sold a 5DIV + FF L lenses, and a 750D, to concentrate on this. I was finding the 5DIV + L lens just too0 big and heavy to hold for long periods of time. Like Chris my eyesight is going, so I find a VF preferable to using a screen, and the OVF on this camera is very good. I suspect that this might be my ‘last camera’; I can’t think of what else I would want. One last point regarding size & weight, etc. My first good SLR was an original EOS 650 (the film camera) which I bought in 1988, and I used it and a couple of successors for many years. Just for fun I compared the size and weight of the 90D + Sigma 17-70 (my walk-round lens) with an old EOS 600 (630 in N America) + 28-105 lens, and they’re very similar. I feel like I’ve come home with the 90D.

[@666Tomato666]

"I can’t think of what else I would want." have you tried using EOS R with focus peaking?

[@666Tomato666]

"I can’t think of what else I would want." have you tried using EOS R with focus peaking?

[@tomburke5311]

No, but that was too much money. I was able to buy the 90D new by selling older stuff on eBay. I did consider the RP but I have a feeling that’s a work in progress, it will be replaced improved quite quickly, and then I would just want to upgrade - which I wouldn’t be able to afford. Let me be clear - I’m saying this is the best camera *for me*. Other cameras may well be better for other people, and I’ve no argument against their decisions.

[@TamasVarga-VatartPhoto]

Does it turn it on if you gently massage the joystick?

[@bradmustow]

Happy endings are xtra

[@avarmadillo]

I think the 90D joystick likes things a little rougher than that. Maybe even a light spanking.

[@GingerPhotographer]

Purchased this camera last week, great upgrade form the 77D and will permanently be mounted to the 100-400 II for Wildlife!

[@brettpierce616]

I'm considering the same upgrade. Primarily using for stills, did you find the image quality to be a lot better? Really would love for there to be less shadow noise and better low light.

[@dzeng]

Great review. I love the transitions! You answered my question regarding the AF. Looks like I’m going to keep my 7D2. Hopefully a 7D3 comes out.

[@cardiacade]

Sadly it looks like the 7d line has been ended. No Mk iii I'm afraid.

[@sergioserramusic]

It’s a great camera IMHO. I shoot with a 6D mark II and I’m waiting for a serious mirrorless alternative that can cope with wildlife (and I’m also waiting for native 3rd party RF glass) and this camera has more features suitable for what I shoot than all the mirrorless cameras Canon sells.

[@ddesai1080]

Next time if you got a chance speaking to Canon guys then please ask them why they are not allowing to mount M6 mark II external EVF on D90...this way D90 will became all in one hybrid camera.

[@Sweetsbabii09718]

I love my 90D it’s amazing. I have a T6i and I was looking at the 80D because Canon was taking so long to make the 90D available and as I was about to finally purchase the 80D the 90D pre-order release was announced. I jumped on it and have been lovinggggggg my 90D. Crisp clear pictures and videos. I’m definitely going to purchase a second 90D body for sure. It’s amazing !!!.

[@jasonarmistead4405]

What sort of lenses are you using ? How is it for sports photography using OVF at 10fps ? The review at 8:00 gives it a less than stellar report, but I wonder if it's just related to the lens they were using. I'm looking to jump up from the T6s, so your experience with the 90D mirrors one possible path for me

[@iNahid]

Is it better than nikon d7500...?

[@avarmadillo]

What!?! You're not put off by the soft image Jordan talked about?!?

[@Sweetsbabii09718]

Jason Armistead I haven’t do sports photography or fast action shots, so I am unsure. I use the kit lens 18-55mm, 55-250mm and the nifty 50mm f/1.8

[@Sweetsbabii09718]

N H RANA not sure, never used any Nikon cameras.

[@GapBahnDirk]

I will certainly consider the 90D when my 80D wears out.

[@rumporridge1]

Until my 70D wears out as well lol.

[@JaySilva88]

You'd have to be really crazy with it to wear out so soon.

[@Noeman2009]

[@bobceffo]

I can't see how you might do that. I broke a baseball bat on it

[@shivadas7655]

[@jimtipton8888]

Thanks for the review! Looking forward to having the 90D. It will be my go to sports and wildlife camera.

[@LarsWagner]

i just bought the Canon 90D together with the Sigma 18-35 and im so happy with it !

[@SFXFF]

wish you'd shoot the review on the 90D

[@thatjordandrake]

We were only sent one 90D for testing, and this was shot before they were available in stores.

[@oneeyedphotographer]

@Robert Saca It's distributed at 30 FPS. I expect it's shot that way.

[@avarmadillo]

@Robert Saca So those insertions sort of invalidate your speculation?!? Nicht Wahr?!?

Hi, Chris and Jordan 👍🏻👍🏻 Great review on the Cannon 90 D, informative information and knowledge of using Cannon products 👍🏻👍🏻 I would like to know what gimbal were you using I have a Canon 80 D and I love taking pictures and videos. Enjoy and have a Great Friday !!!Danny

[@d53101]

I bought a new 90D in March of 2023. I’ve had extremely good results with it. Very sharp well exposed images. I take issue with your test of a moving subject toward the camera using the OVF. My test with a running dog gave me good results with most (over 85 percent) either tack sharp or very close to it. I was using a Sigma 100-400 lens, 1,500th sec F8 with a 9 focus point cluster. The 90D is very comfortable to use with all the buttons in the right places. The joystick which I thought I might use is actually among my least used features. I almost exclusively use the OVF rather the than the rear screen for composing photos. I use my 90D with the Sigma zoom mostly for wildlife and birds in the Toronto area.

[@Mr___X]

good to know, thanks

[@ScottJWaldron]

I missed Jordan's experiment, but seeing it now... yep. That was certainly a different episode. ;D The 90D seems like a solid update for existing EF-S mount users (or EF as a second camera).

[@laquica7730]

This guy is like the Ryan Reynolds of camera reviews 😂

[@michaelbauers8800]

Correct me if I am wrong, but I already have 6 EF and EFS lenses, wouldn't buying the mirrorless be more trouble than it's worth? $200 for the adapater, and added bulkiness. My understanding is that adaptor would not change lens performance, though I was not clear how you move optics with respect to the sensor and there's no change.

[@SarahBaldwinMUA]

I just got this for Christmas I am in love. I upgraded from a very old canon 500d which is over 10 years old now. So this is just a whole new a level for me. I was bought this more for the filming although I do photography as well. It’s going to be a great all rounder. I find it’s very comfortable to hold also. The tracking / focus on this is superb. Love it

[@ericques9974]

Great video, question if you don't mind me asking. I filmed a video on my Canon 90D on automatic, I also set it at 4K. When I open up Final Cut Pro X, it's asking me what " Resolution " I want to set the project at. 4K is the best that is out there for this camera, do you know the best Resolution and Rate numbers I should set Final Cut at ? The best one ???? The best best one ? If so, thanks.

[@outdoorsman1955]

I have the 80D and will be going to the 90D as my upgrade my 80D will eventually need a shutter replacement but will be keeping it as my backup

[@milangurung4349]

what is the status of your shuttercount right now? I tried to figure out the shuttercount of my 80d but I failed. Seems like i have to go to the customer care

[@JourneymanActor]

Liked where you placed that table and chair at the end. 👍

[@HappyHubris]

I would enjoy hearing which common EF-S lenses can resolve the 32MP. Or even just letting us know that you'll have to exclusively use FF EF lenses to hit 32MP.

[@666Tomato666]

I'd be surprised if Sigma 18-35 f/1.8 couldn't, but yes, I don't see even the 17-55 f/2.8 performing at the level of this sensor

[@thatjordandrake]

@@666Tomato666 We used the 17-55 in our Atlanta episode, and it certainly wasn't resolving the sensor's full resolution. The new EF-S 35mm F2.8 Macro did a great job, as do the bulky but sharp Sigma Art Lenses.

[@oneeyedphotographer]

@@thatjordandrake I would like to see a video in which you kit out the 90D (and M6 iI perhaps) with APS_C lenses for stills and video.

[@MasterOfBasses]

I'm still hanging on to my 60D... Since I don't have $3K I just can't decide which camera I should upgrade to (Fuji, Sony, Lumix, Nikon, Canon...)

[@FaithChaseUSA]

Great review on the 90d. The thing I hate about it the most is no 24fps. I still can't understand why Canon has decided to take its crippling game to a whole another level of insanity. Especially this being a follow up to the 70d / 80d my mind is blown! Lol anyways I may still have to get one as my Vlog camera as everything else is on point!

[@cooloox]

As if 24p is important for vlogging. You're not making Spielberg classics.

[@FaithChaseUSA]

@@cooloox I happen to also be a filmmaker so 24fps is something that I do use but I have other cameras that already serve that purpose. This as I said would be a camera for when Im vlogging. I never said that 24fps was important for vlogging otherwise if I thought that I would not be considering this camera as a vlog camera. Tnx for your reply though.

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

Camcorders are infinitely better at shooting video than photography cameras when compared dollar for dollar.

[@FaithChaseUSA]

@@YankeeWoodcraft depends on the type of video you are shooting and the type of camcorder.

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

@@FaithChaseUSA That's why I wrote "dollar for dollar". For the same $1,450 that a Canon 90D w/kit lens costs, you can get an insanely good 4K prosumer camcorder. 😊

Loves the way how you review the DSLRs, has been a fan. All the best for all your future endeavours. Love from India.

[@laranitasantana]

I love the Csnon 90D with Sigma 100-400 mm lens, because of the 32 megapixels, sharpness and is excellent for wildlife photography

[@adrianvasian]

the video actually does feel fresh the way it's edited at a faster pace with more cuts :)

[@jaemez3247]

Best canon dslr ever made

[@aaronromero7723]

Nice video What will be a good lens for wedding or portraits an thank you I really enjoy ur vidoes.

[@AlexLancashirePersonalView]

Canon should make a function where the mirror stays up and a small EVF is visible through one facet of the pentaprisme so that you can use it like a mirrorless when it is too bright outside to see the back screen . This would give all the advantages of a mirrorless to see the actual exposure etc. Maybe with the switch of the mode dial. OR, make it accept the add on EVF on the hot shoe.

[@cooloox]

Yes, the EVF on the hotshoe is an obvious one. Instant mirrorless camera.

[@oneeyedphotographer]

Canon has a patent on a hybrid viewfinder. If that surfaces in a product, that might be better than your suggestion.

[@AlexLancashirePersonalView]

@@oneeyedphotographer I am a great fan of Canon's mirrorless range, even the not so good ones, but a hybrid SLR would be great.

Ill be doing interviews, cooking, doing daily exercises, taking portraits, pictures of people is their homes and doing daily things, etc. I needed this tutorial so much! Thank You! Also, could you tell me good quality but inexpensive stable lenses for portrait, macro, video, dark surroundings (bring more light in) aside from lighting (Im working on that as well) and landscape.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated, thank you Chris!

[@rachelsrats3553]

Thank you for making this video! I'm probably going to buy this camera to improve my video and photo quality because right now I have two extremely basic Canon cameras. I know that Canon isn't necessarily the best brand, but I like the feel of their cameras, as well as the way that the settings are arranged. This video helped me understand all about the Canon EOS 90D camera, so now I know what I am buying, and all of the pros and cons of this particular camera. Thanks again!

At the beginning, Chris should have looked at the camera and said "do you like that??? OH YEAH, you know you like that!!" 😂

[@twiztedzero1685]

Re: Wildlife. Yes, we're aware the 7D and 7D MK II are "discontinued" ... but does that hold true also for the 7D MK III for certain? I wish we could get some real information on this from Canon. My gut says the 90D isn't enough for a full on wildlife body. I'm willing to wait until the 2020 Olympics in Japan for Canon to push out a possible 7D MK III.

[@youknowwho9247]

The Olympics wouldn't prompt a 7D III or a D600, but the already announced 1D X III, D6 and likely a9 II.

What camera are you using to make this video

[@jollyrogerhobbies2386]

I want to upgrade from the T7i to the 90D. is low light shooting good? with my T7i, anything about 800 ISO sucks and brings in a lot of noise. 800 is really a last resort for me and I have a pretty hard line to keep it at 400 ISO or below which of course severely limits my shooting options. is the 90D better in that regard? Marginally better, a huge upgrade or is it comparable to the T7i?

[@miki_marker]

[@meh4062]

Must document work related injuries. Pew pew lol

[@josephkarpinski9586]

An interesting test would be shooting BIF at 10fps in raw. And of the shots taken, how many are in focus. I have both a Canon 80D and a Canon 7D Mark II. The Canon 7D Mark II has more FPS, but for BIF, many of the shots were out of focus. And using a Canon 1.4x Extender at f/8 left you with only one AF point. The Canon 80D 100-400mm II with a 1.4x Extender III had 27 AF points at f/8. And a great reach at 896mm, 400mm x 1.6 crop x 1.4 Extender. Great wildlife and BIF combination. The 90D with its 32Mps sensor should help with cropping issues. The larger buffer should help, as well as the spot AF point for wildlife in busy backgrounds.

What's BIF ?

Nice overview, thanks guys. I don’t know much about video, but I thought the look of the 90D clip looked better (color? FPS? not sure) than the rest of the video. Also, it was nice and steady - was that thanks to the lens, or the gimbal, or both?

[@JoshLittleYo]

Dude this camera is about a year old and every single one, every version from base to vlogger version is all sold out everywhere. I just ordered from adorama cause they're the closest to receiving it this week. Jeeeez haha

[@Galf506]

I had a 7d, sort of dreaded it in the end. The AF was not as accurate as it should have been - great ergonomics, but the sensor is garbage. You should just move to the EOS R. Big enough, great tech.

[@Asmoc23]

I remember a few years, when you reviewed mirrorless cameras saying the same exact thing. The Af isn't quite on par with dslr, isn't tracking as well, isn't accurate enough. :)))

[@jeanpaulcarvajal9846]

What camera is the best, canon 90D or Nikon D7500? For taking photos

[@xcrack6364]

Just got one a couple days ago. Pretty nice camera. Definitely a good step up over the 80d. You speak of missing more than hitting with the tracking ability of someone running at the camera. I’ve had pretty good success with that with my 2 year old running around and toward me. Many more keepers than not this time around. I really love the battery life. I can shoot at the zoo all day with one battery.

I'm debating Canon 90D or Sony A7iii. $1,200.00 vs $1,999.00. Total investment $3,000.00. Do NOT own any gears! And do NOT like kit lenses. Needed for family portraits and kids daily activities and have some fun :) What would you do in my situation? Love to here your ideas here! Thank you!

[@AustrianGeek]

They should have released at least an update to the EF-S 17-55 2.8 together with the 90D (with better resolving power to match the 32.5MPixels, new silent and more video stable ois, nano USM and nearly most important - Better sealing ^^). Would have made a ton of sense as actually there are not really THAT much APS-C lenses good enough to resolve that 32.5 Megapixels - The 35mm 2.8 IS STM in this video is btw. the ONLY one with F2.8 (or faster), optical stabilisation and a silent AF motor for video (without OIS there are only the 24mm F2.8, 30mm F1.4 DC from Sigma and the old APS-C 60mm F2.8 Macro from Canon left - Primes wise). And standard zoom (F2.8 or F4 APS-C - Not Full Frame coverage) there is actually nothing available. Also the M6 II would have benefitted from an upgraded 17-55 2.8 (through the EF to EF-M adapter). With the M system they made the same weird stuff. They released the 32mm F1.4 - Which is great and resolves the new sensor easily (at least what I´ve seen til now). But it comes WITHOUT any stabilisation. Why not go for an F1.8 or F2.0 aperture and include IS instead (would have made A TON of more sense). So useless for video again (but also for longer exposure handheld stills). I don´t really get Canons decisions - They are just weird *g*. LG

[@455LT1]

This is making me hesitant to buy this camera. I loved the 17-55 on the 80d as that's the best ef-s lens available. But it's ancient and came out when these cameras had a lot less MPs. The L series glass don't have OS which is a no go for me (although I'd check out a used 70-200 is if I found a deal). Canon needs to support the 90d with great new glass.

[@cooloox]

I've shot Canon forever, but you're right, they're weird and getting weirder all the time.

[@AustrianGeek]

@@455LT1 Well - The EF-S 17-55 is "ok". But by far not on par anymore with the more modern lenses on the market. Old motor (not compareable to the new USM and nano USM variants), old stabiliser (only optimised for stills) and the really horrific sealing / dust issues - I just skipped on it (according searching an always on lens for my Canon M50). Sadly there is also no alternative on the market (which is also usable for video use). I hate to say it - But in general full frame glass is the only way to go (24-105 F4 Mk-II for example comes with the new USM and new optical stabiliser - Just to name an example). But thats extremely annoying - Especially when searching for a good lens for your EOS M system camera ^^.

[@rroc19]

AustrianGeek try 18-135 EF-S USM. Yes not as sharp as 17-55 but as good as the 24-105 on APS-C

​@@rroc19 Yep. I had it already on the M50 and the Fuji X-H1 with the Fringer Pro (Mk-1) adapter. Worked nice. But its a super zoom - A huge difference to a constant F2.8 (I would even prefer a constant F4 over a super zoom). Well - The 17-55 2.8 is even bigger and heavier than the 18-135 Nano USM (a little bit) - Which is a challenge with the M50 (due to the small grip). But at least you get the constant F2.8 aperture on the 17-55. Even if they don´t bring out a new 17-55 2.8 variant, I would LOVE to see at least a constant aperture F4 standard zoom variant (like the Fuji 16-80mm F4 for example). Just limit it to 16-70 or even shorter to make it smaller (and cheaper). Would be also great on the 90D as an always on. But I guess this will not happen (I doubt that they will release ANYTHING for the EF-S mount in the near future. More likely for their full frame EF system - As its also working adapted with the new EOS RF bodies.)

Hey Chris, can you give us feedback on smartphone integrations as I'm interested to know how that might work to distribute video and social media and so on.

[@edwardtsui4115]

I have used EOS 7D (mark I) for many years. It is a solid and reliable camera. I am considering to upgrade it for taking sport photos and star photos. I do know whether I should buy a 90D or M5 (Mark II) or wait for the future 7D Mark III. One reason I don't like mirrorless camera is the LED screen being difficult to view when wearing polarized sunglasses.

[@ShademanIrvani]

I recently brought a canon 90D camera and I will see how I get on with it

[@liveliferock]

Chris I was expecting you to compare it against Sony A6400 or the upcoming A6600. I think there is no point of being stubborn about DSLR if mirrorless cameras have certain advantage in most department if not all. I would love the comparison of 90D against the best other cameras available in this price range be it a mirrorless or a DSLR. Sorry for my bad english

[@nekogami87]

Isn't jordan quite often on the ground in recent videos ? XD Also, just wondering but, is the EVF for the m series usable on the 90D ? Could be fun to transform your dsl to MILC like this lol

[@kevindiaz3459]

It is not.

[@kamilkp]

Cool review but one thing stood out: you were testing DPAF performance in a vlog scenario with a crappy slow ef-s 10-18? At f/4.5 I think the background is (almost?) in focus as well ;)

[@bergusenergus6375]

Thx for the vid! Can you tell me what gimbal this is? Thx and greetings from germany

[@4thNebula]

Very helpful review. Canon is making life very difficult for me. Have a 77D and Sigma 18-300. Do I upgrade. Would love to get the M6 II but need a good long superzoom.

[@oneeyedphotographer]

You could adapt the M6 II. If you don't know why, you probably should not. If I did, it would be for the 4K video. The extra pixels are nice, but not essential. I believe the sensor in your 77D is the same as the one in my 80D.

[@milangurung4349]

@@oneeyedphotographer what lens do you use for landscape and wildlife for you 80d? I recelntly biught used80d and have 50mm and 10-18mm but picture on10-18mm is Not that sharp as I expected. I am more into wildlife and landscape

[@bdfrankmeow]

your need for a superzoom restricts your choice or neglect some improvements. You are probably better to continue with your current combo for another year or two .

[@oneeyedphotographer]

@@milangurung4349 For landscape I use the 5Ds and four TS-E lenses. I don't do much wildlife, my eye isn't up to it. I used to use the 80D as a companion to my 6D, when I replaced that there became less point to it. The 80D was the best for video though. My most-used lens on the 80D is the 18-135 IS USM lens that came in the kit.

[@4thNebula]

@@oneeyedphotographer Is the Sigma 18-300 adaptable to the M6 II? I have not been able to find that info. on the web.

[@AquaticImages]

Great review thanks! What's the word on low light performance? And what's the word on 4k enhanced crop mode and what that does to image sharpness/crop factor. Any flat profiles for video? Find this info hard to come by :(

[@niccollsvideo]

Low light performance looks largely similar to the previous sensors however with much higher resolution. Hopefully we will see lab tests on dpreview.com shortly. The uncropped video is slightly softer then the cropped video. Not a huge difference but it's there. No flat profiles at all, looks like your turning everything down on the natural profile to get as close to flat as possible.

[@AquaticImages]

Thanks Chris 👍 Guess we'll wait and see a little longer

[@swastikkishore1944]

is it good for 'Photography' as well or just videography? if not which one is best in this range?

Useful review. Kudos for identifying the birds. A merganser is a duck, btw, but I expect you knew that..

7:11 Curious for our productions makeup can help talent and I wonder what makeup palette you use for Chris, 100% serious question, because overall it looks good and want to know about using for our talent? Is it just like a like foundation or color? Or is that just natural tan? Looks good on camera as often talent where we are in Ohio can be pretty pale on camera since we don't get so much sun here. Just curious - thanks

[@JilesMcCoy]

I need help! I am Graduating from an iPhone to a “real” camera for my channel. I thought the 6600 would be it... but maybe not. Help! What has IBS, great af, mic in, headphones out, great 4K, 24p, flippy screen... all those KZbin needed features???

[@EinzMY]

no such things in 1 camera at the moment, unfortunately a6600 is a great candidate but the IBIS is not great video, its work fine for stills photo btw. both 90d and m6 ii has no IBIS and 24p right now. panasonic camera has great IBIS but slow autofocus. Fuji has great camera body and lens selection but none of their flagship camera has IBIS and flip screen.

[@JilesMcCoy]

@@EinzMY Thanks for the insight. If you will use the camera for 90% 4k video for KZbin and need to film alone 70% of the time which camera line do you suggest?

[@youknowwho9247]

This is so disappointing. I was looking at this to replace my D500 for wildlife because of the huge jump in resolution, but if the af can't keep up, what good are 30 mpix? Why not put at least the old af system of the 7D II in this that they already had? Doesn't make sense to me.

[@cooloox]

Not taking anything away from Chris' or anyone else's skills here - I'd test one for yourself. I have no issues photographing birds in flight with an 80D (from an AF point of view). I'm sure this new camera will handle 10fps as well as the 80D handles 7fps. There's already a review of the 90D by a bird photographer who loved it. If you can nail birds in flight, you'll have no focus issues with just about any other type of action photography.

[@dima1353]

They test for AF is pretty hard, and they testing for dynamic portrait session mostly. For wildlife its gonna be fine

[@youknowwho9247]

@@dima1353 I can't see a reason why it would be. Tracking a person that moves straight at the camera is much easier on the af system than tracking a small bird that moves not only much faster, but erratically. Same goes for sports shooting. I'll have to look at further reviews, but if the af performance turns out to really look like that it would be a huge step down from my D500 for action and wildlife. I mean, that camera would get every single shot in focus in the test they showed in the video. Like if you did 10 passes of 30 frames each, I guarantee that the D500 would get at least 290 of those 300 frames in perfect focus.

[@youknowwho9247]

@@cooloox I'm not so sure. My point of reference is the D500, so I do have high standards I guess. Looks to me like the focus system they used here is the same as in the 77D. I've used that model - decent, but certainly not great. Guess we'll have to wait, see and try for ourselves.

[@dima1353]

@@youknowwho9247 Close up "slow" movements is more challenging for AF because it's much more difference for focus field. Plus people is not just flat objects on that distance . Their have fases, and AF system need to recognize and follow faces - not the T-shirt logo. It's required some brains. I don't shoot wildlife, but i know something about shooting sports and dinamyc portraits. And shooting soccer player on the field is nothing compare to child that runs across you. Even if soccer man is much faster - he is isolated and mostly flat object, there is no difference betwen focus on legs and focus on face. It's not require some "algorithms", AI and other stuff. And his fastness is not much so challenging for AF, because on the range its really small field difference. Just look on focus scale. Birds... i don't know, but it seems to me, that birds is closer to soccer players that to something, who whirling around you

[@sdyates2001]

@DPReview Do you have sample 90D 4K video I can download for testing. I'd like to test without seeing through youtube compression.

[@joseeduardomartinezrios508]

Which camera has better qualities for photo and video, Canon 90D, Canon 7D M II or Sony a6600? 🤔

[@danieldougan269]

Sony a6600. But you might also want to take a hard look at the Fuji X-T4. That's an amazing camera.

[@sherichander]

That was a nice way to summarise it but can you guys please do a detailed autofocus test for moving subjects (wildlife) etc. using the 100-400 lens. And a possible comparison with Nikon D500 with the 200-500. A lot of Canon user's (including me) were waiting for more than 3 years for this camera (more like a proper 7d Mk II update) and it doesn't seems to come close to D500's autofocus capabilities.

so what's the best lens for vlogging? i wonder what lens was used at 4.20?

[@owenruff4796]

so I have been looking around for a personal camera as I am using a loaner. I like landscaping, architecture, and mostly motorsports or fast moving objects, do you think this would be a good camera to use or should I maybe go with something else, I mean I was at an airshow a few months back where I shot around 950 photos so battery is slightly important

[@Sunrazor]

Trying to decide between M6II and this. The compelling reason to go for this in my book is weathersealing and ergonomics. The reasons for M6II is it's size and the evf. I honestly don't know.

[@HeadlessChickenTO]

I'm thinking of jumping onto the enthusiast class with this camera. I'm coming from the Canon M50 but prior to that, I was using the RebelXT and T3, so I have EF and EFS glass with only 2 EFM for the M50.

[@Purzelburschen]

I want a cam to shoot sports photography (downhill mtb) as a hobby. Also some filming. Important for me is mainly a good AF and somewhat good low light. Would the 90D be something for me? I did of course fall in love with the sony a7 iii but it's out of my budget unfortunately 😕

[@caseybachmeyer]

i love to see how people testing the 90 d with a ...GIMBAL!!! WOW. For the people who dont know: The 90 d is made to use without gimbal! It has a image stabilisation...AND its a concurent for the GH5 and has nothing to do with the m6 ii. i think i have to make a video about that

[@thatjordandrake]

The 90D has electronic image stabilization, which degrades image quality. It is not comparable to the system in the GH5 which uses a mechanical unit to stabilize the image, combined with optional electronic image stabilization. You can find out more about electronic image stabilization here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3qpXp5mlKyKoMk

[@tysonator5433]

What great video I really enjoy the opening scene ! Lol Being a 7Dii owner the 90D focusing spec is a down grade. I like the 7Dii can take CF and SD cards, so I can always get spare cards where ever I am in the world. For me the video upgrade over the 7Dii would be great, however larger k of DP AF in 120 fps is deal breaker, I mean what's the point in having it !

[@jasonarmistead4405]

Just curious - what aspects do you consider to be a downgrade in the focusing dept ? I was hoping for a 7D Mk III, but instead Canon released the 90D. Now I'm torn as to where to go next ... A lot of what I want to shoot is sports.

[@tysonator5433]

@@jasonarmistead4405 I too shoot alot of sports, action and wildlife and for portrait work the 7Dii is very as is any camera were fast, accurate AF is not required. The 90D AF is slower than 7Dii and I believe does hold lock on moving targets too well. I will not be buying the 90D or m6 mkii I will likely get the Sony A6600 or A7000 when it comes our.
