My Opinion has changed on the Canon EOS R

[@rodrigo4379]

The eos R with the 15-35L has been crazy good for interiors. This lens is crazy sharp

[@THSimagery]

Rodrigo love this combo for portraits too!

[@rus19297]

Thing I appreciate about you, Manny, is your forethought and adaptability. That’s the difference in amateur versus professional photographers. Shape the light and use what’s around you. Getting complete strangers to follow instructions when they don’t have to. Love it. Nice work.

Maxim Horoshilov Maybe when canon can catch up with the competition

[@cashino]

Exactly my thoughts hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa TeamCanon

[@michaelbell75]

I shot Canon for 14 years, switched to Sony for over a year with the a7iii and couldn't go back to Canon soon enough as soon as the RP got good eye AF and the price dropped to $999. Sony skin tones and colors are awful compared to Canon and Sony has nothing that comes close to the RF 50 and 85 f/1.2 portrait lenses.

[@dantecajigas22]

Manny is always fun to have 2 systems!!!

[@vonpotatostein]

It is so awesome to see how the mirrorless tech is pushing more creativity now that people aren't bound to a tiny portion AF cluster on the center of the frame, being able to shoot wide open, with precision and in almost every part of the frame without recomposing!!! :) this is sooooooo cool! Beautiful shots Manny! I'm glad you are working hard to overcome your shyness Manny! Old Manny wouldn't have asked the couple to help with the shot!! Beautiful photos as always man!!!

Am I the unique EOS R owner loving the new Touch Bar? I really love it. Mine is set to change ISO very fast. 1-left-click for ISO100, slide to increase/ decrease value. Very handy.

[@JasperIbe]

I don't think it matters what camera system you use Manny. You and any other skilled photographer will be able to capture amazing photos with any camera system. It's great to see that Canon has improved their camera with the latest firmware to keep up with their awesome glass.

[@reinoudhummel]

True

[@JustSayingIP]

Not true, unfortunately. These shots would suck if they were taken on something like a T6 because of the horrible low light performance, even with low ISO.

[@mdsegara101]

Gear does matter..

[@DustinAbbottTWI]

I completely agree with your thoughts on the improvements. They are enough that I actually bought an EOS R and so I can cover more of the RF lenses. I also agree on your ergonomic points at the end. By the way - your portraits in this image are just amazing. Stunning work, Manny.

[@ezekielgavieres6628]

Not sure if you're aware of it, I don't think I've seen it on any of your EOS R videos, but if you look through the viewfinder and use your right thumb to scroll on the lcd screen, the right part of the LCD screen acts as a joystick. Hope that helps!

[@anildangol]

you will be glad to know that eye tracking also works on manual focus. So that means you can use focus assist with manual lens to get sharp eye focussed images.

[@Rogueace13]

That was hilarious manny getting those random people to help you out for the shot

Super dope to see you giving Canon another chance. I'm in the same bolt myself but trying to stay put while waiting for the unicorn A7SIII. I was getting bored with my A7III & almost jumped ship but I started playing around with flash photography & kinda sparked my love for Sony again. Winter & beginning of next year should be an interesting time. Looking forward to more videos with you & the canon gear. Really helps us all in getting a different perspective. Cheers

[@treloar2]

Great video - thanks, Manny! Great to see you give the EOS R another chance now that it’s had the firmware updates. Your honesty is refreshing. Most gear videos seem like a pitch for the company, rather than an honest opinion. I switched to Sony awhile back, and really doubt I’d ever switch again - but it’s nice to know what the other companies are doing in an unbiased way. Great job!

[@ScottJWaldron]

Really nice photos there. It's good to try out gear. Knowing what various cameras can do first-hand brings options to a photographer's toolset. The little details of equipment, like you were saying, such as if a camera tends to focus on the eye or eyelash is key to getting what's wanted out of a tool.

I own this camera for a little bit over a month and I love it, for my photo work I still using the Canon big guns but this camera do a really good job in a little portrait session I have few days ago. I heard a lot of negative comments about this camera but no camera is perfect... always to many photographers said, this camera has only one memory card.... back in time when I started my photography career we never have a camera with two slots for a rolls of film.... and I know the technology is getting better but to me the camera still a tool...and we had to learn how to use it...

Hey, Manny! Your game is getting stronger each day! It's really nice to see.

[@cesarebonazza]

Remember me I told you to take it easy last time, with version 1.4 it is working very well eye detection. My menu bar is totally shut off. I’m still very new to my EOS R coming from DSLR for over 30 years. My major complain is when you are using a flash you can’t see when it fire true the EVF !! It must be a way to make that happen? Otherwise I’m waiting for 2 card slot And a faster 10 frame.

[@petersonelisnelli]

[@RonaldLadao]

In defense of the touch bar, The only time I'll use touch bar is when I'm taking theater stage performances. If I don't like the white balances that I'm getting from the theater lights. Yeah, I COULD change it in post. But if you're in a tight shoot to shoot schedule and have to get stuff done the next day. I gotta do my best to get it "right on camera"...

[@whiterock1865]

Oh you mentioned the joystick or lack thereof...try using the touch screen for your autofocus...much faster than a joystick. Just takes some getting used to at first.

[@lildrummer08]

revisiting this camera a year ago, how do you feel about it on the market now for someone coming into photography and videography?

[@RonaldLadao]

I notice that you were using manual mode during that shoot. Was there a time in the video that you ever tried out "Fv" mode? With the combination with the eye focus, Fv mode, knowing my f stop & shutter speed and setting my ISO onto auto. The only thing I adjust while in "Fv" mode is my exposure compensation. The Fv mode works REALLY well in stage theater performances when the performers is moving in and out of the stage lighting.

Wow, this is the first time I'd ever heard anybody complain about the EOS-R EVF. It's always regarded as class leading, better than the A7III's for sure and slightly better than the A7RIII. Do you mean maybe just the magnification? A7III EVF: 0.5", 2.30 Million dots EOS-R EVF: 0.5", 3.69 Million dots The only area I see a slight edge on the Sonys is the EVF magnification of 0.78 vs 0.76. The EOS-R has a setting to make the EVF display smaller so it's easier to take in the entire image, so maybe you had that turned on? Thanks Manny for another great video!

Yeah I know the specs say differently but I find myself struggling to review images on it compared to the A7III where I dont
