Photons to photos measured the R5 2 as a third of the stop lower dynamic range and 0.2 DN higher read noise (0.9 for electronic shutter at higher bit depth) than the R5 1, as a trade-off for the sensor speed. This isn't much but your report tells us the difference is noticeable. Hopefully a pure raw profile will come soon and render the point moot. I haven't found any autofocus yet that's amazingly reliable for black eyes on a black animal, but your examples look pretty good and your comments on the IBIS make good listening. Thanks for the good info Jan.

Thank you so much for getting this video out there. It must have been a challenge to get done on top of your trip. I’m so happy that the rolling shutter has been controlled to a sufficient degree and that we finally have functional precapture. Canon did a good job so now the ball is in out court to get out there and get some killer shots. I can’t wait! Hopefully, my copy will arrive on Wednesday. Again, great review and thanks for the heroic effort!!

No, besides AF in very fast situations and series - the Nikon Z8, Z9 are by far better, faster Kameras with a lot more affordable lenses. Only 95 RAWs until buffer is clearing is not really professionally fast in the R5II.

​@@spirouspirou9315Your comment just got my attention. Just curious, why do you think the Z8/9 are better overall than the R5 mk ii? I was dead set in getting one, but with all these delays I'm now seriously considering a Z8. Tô me they are a bit splitting hairs in overall terms, but curious.

Great review. Getting my r5MII tomorrow which is exciting! I shoot a mixture of genres from landscapes to sports and wildlife so having a camera that is an improvements for the latter subjects and just as good as before for landscapes, is great news. Once the noise software industry catches up etc, I think any concerns around dynamic range will quickly evaporate.

​@@jan_wegener Thank you for taking your time with this review! A rushed review isn't nearly as valuable as this! :) Just one question though. Would you be able to ask your contacts at Canon about 4K Fine being limited to only 30fps? I'm hoping for a firmware update bringing 8K oversampled 4K60p to the R5 Mark II so do you know or could you please ask Canon if they're working on such a firmware update? It feels like Canon wants to artificially limit the R5 Mark II to protect their R5C which is really disappointing. The R5 Mark II should be able to record 8K oversampled 4K60p (4K Fine)! Thank you very much in advance! :)

Excellent review Jan! Really insightful and you covered the performance of all the key features that I think most bird and wildlife shooters have been curious to hear about. I'm a little disappointed that all the amazing AF improvements made for tracking humans and sports haven't really translated to birds. Hopefully the AF will get even better with future firmware updates. Regarding dynamic range, PhotonsToPhotos did quite a robust and comprehensive test and there appears to be neglible difference between the Mk ii and Mk i. Stunning photos and footage as always Jan! I'm so happy that your trip was so fruitful and gave you many wonderful lifetime memories with the beautiful rifle birds and palm cockatoos. Thanks for all your hard work in putting this video together and sharing your valuable thoughts. 🙏 Looking forward to picking up my own R5 Mk ii tomorrow!

You've confirmed that I made the right decision to preorder to upgrade my main camera from an R5 to the Mk ii. Hopefully it'll ship soon! Will be keeping the R5 as a second body though... still love it. Your videos and images from the trip are amazing, particularly those of the Palm Cockatoos!

To see these magnificent birds in the wild is such a gift to me. I’ll never make it to Australia, so you taking us along on your adventures is priceless to me! In the USA, OH we would only see some of these birds in a pet store, which has always made me quite sad. If you love birds, then leave them in nature! Thanks Jan!

Really well done comprehensive review, as always. I am very glad to hear how well the camera performed for you in such challenging real world conditions. For myself though, since I am primarily a landscape shooter who more casually shoots wildlife, even though I was originally planning on upgrading, now that the camera is out and hearing about the reduction in dynamic range means I will likely stay with my trusty R5 for now.

Terrific video. Great trip + new camera info! Exciting birds! My R5 Mark II arrived today and I looked to see if you had a new video. Looking forward to full settings video. The R5 was the most complicated camera I had ever tried to set up and the R5 II has even more settings! I'm wondering if the trouble with shadows might be exacerbated by using S-Raw and electronic shutter since both individually give a hit to shadows. Although my understanding is the 14-bit in ES is a definite improvement over the 12 bit with the R5.

I sent back the R6 MK2 because unlike my R5C I could not get spot AF without tracking even when I said "dont use tracking/eye focus" glad to see they addressed this specifically. I am a concert photographer, and the lighting is super dark and the bands often are in makup and costum so its extremly hard for eye focus and subject tracking. So yeah I will miss the DR and ISO performance a bit, but my shots are already way more noise free than most other people because I shoot with 1.2 glass for this reason. I am hoping to use the new EVF eye tracking along with spot to help me frame shots faster or choose the right subject in a group because it was slow and cumbersome to use the LCD to choose my focus point, and not nearly fast or accurate enough to use the joystick. For the ISO performance and Noise it seems that all stacked sensors are like this, so its equal to or better than other brands offerings, a trade off for the faster readout speed. What I hope, is that Canon maybe does something innovative and offers for the frist time a setting to change the read out speed and dynamic range/iso performance priority in settings. Technicaly the sensor can have better DR and NOise than the R5 with this sensor and keep the read out speed the same, OR it can have a faster readout with some losses. They are marketing this hard for the faster readout speeds, so I hope that doesn't stop them from still offering a "enhanced image" mode where the speed is not as important.

Thanks, Jan! Great, thorough review. I count on your professionalism when reviewing cameras and lenses, so I know I can trust your opinion. Definitely thinking seriously about the R5MII. Maybe there will actually be one available at some future time.

Thanks for the video. Very informative and great pics. I'll get the R5mII for Christmas as an addition to my R6mII. I basically only ever use two lenses, and not having to swap them anymore will be so awesome.

Another great video. My Mark II is still in the box since it arrived as I was traveling. Will look at your "settings you need to know" video and then set it up. Great photos as usual.

A great video, thanks. My R5 MII ships this week and I am anxious to get it. To me, the preshooting capability will enable me to get shots I have always missed. Just yesterday, I was trying to get some butterfly take-off shots and was always late or gave up just before lift off. The larger viewfinder also should be helpful for older photographers like myself who have poor low-light vision due to cataracts:) I am pretty sure that the photo processors will over time improve their noise cancellation capabilities, but will continue to expose to the right to get the best images. The low light focusing improvements will also be welcome.

17:08 when talking about your double back button focus, I am getting confused. You seem to be talking about the same button twice. I get you are seperating your Eye AF and Spot AF. What is the second button you use? And do you still use the half press shutter button as AF engage?
