[@AndreiRestrepo]

What are YOU currently SHOOTING on?? DSLR or Mirrorless? GO!

[@amarierlizana5263]

I Actually just switched from the 5D Mark IV to the R6. not mad about it. Feels like everything got better. Also didnt have Clog on my 5D was an older model so that sucked.

[@tellingyoustories]

6d Mark I. Looking at perhaps upgrading to r6. Worried about video output files, battery life and overheating. I do lots of filmed interviews so need at least half hour continuous video recording

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Still contemplating my move but I think I’m going to do the same!!

[@AndreiRestrepo]

I used to use the 6D! First pro camera. I think this would be a MASSIVE upgrade, especially in AF. Video files not in c log should be easy to work with, also aren’t you used to shooting in 1080 on the 6D anyway? Battery life is pretty good, obviously might be a little less based on everything going on in this camera. From what I understand, you can record now over an hour in 4k24 and a little over 30 min in 4k60. I’d be shooting interviews in 1080 24 or 4k24 maybe

[@redcolour1197]

Samsung Smartphone. 🥲

[@osasenoma-owens5072]

For me, the OVF provides a feeling and experience that an EVF can't. Couple that with the fact that battery life is notably worse on mirrorless. Size, to me, also isn't of any importance but I tend to lean towards larger and heavier bodies. As a stills-only shooter, mirrorless doesn't work for me and I still recommend DSLRs for those who are primarily interested in photography.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

When I started and only did stills, I felt the same way! Bigger body and wasn’t a fan of mirrorless. I think it’s so simply because I do a lot of video work and everything they offer. Wonder if I’ll like the EVF long term though. Thanks for watching!

[@osasenoma-owens5072]

@@AndreiRestrepo If I were primarily into video work, I'd honestly prefer a mirrorless body with an EVF as it would heavily improve my workflow. If you're doing a lot of video work now, then I believe a mirrorless body is the better choice for you. For stills, however, the OVF lets you connect with the scene/subject more, in my opinion. It feels natural and refreshing and the mirror also sounds nice too. All in all, it's down to personal preference.

[@jnd2415]

I feel the same way. OVF over EVF. I’ll stay with my 5DIV and 7DMKII combo. Very happy with it.

[@osasenoma-owens5072]

@@jnd2415 That's a great combo! The 5D Mark IV is still an incredible stills (and video) shooter and the 7D Mark II just doesn't stop shooting.

[@pctrobottitley8334]

I'm with you on this Osase,I prefer a heavier camera,plus when I look through a viewfinder I want to see what my eyes see,not an image made of pixels,I would happily upgrade to the R range if I could keep the mirror and fixed screen

[@Ed_Scott]

I just received my EOS R last week, and I’m digging it. I moved up from the 90D. I definitely want the R6 as my “A” camera. Great overall look at the camera. Looks like it’s a great tool to make one’s workflow easier.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey man! That’s awesome, EOS R is a killer camera! I agree, R6 provides some many great features. Thanks for watching!

[@Ed_Scott]

@@canonlensesandcameras4425 yessir. I plan on holding on to the R for the time being.

[@sonicvboom]

@@Ed_ScottDo you find the colors on the *R* slightly better than the R6? I've been told by multiple photographers that the R6 gives off a slight yellow hue (warmer tone).

[@rubenbleichrodt8450]

This is literally my dilemma at the moment. Am I gonna go for the R6 or 5D Mark IV...? Such a tough decision...

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Ruben! Totally get it, definitely can be a tough decision! I think it depends on the content you’re creating! Personally I think I would choose now the EOS R over the 5d4. Better AF, flip screen, and same sensor! Thanks for watching!

[@JoshuaMcTackett]

I'll solve your dilemma for you as someone with good experience with both. Get the R6. It's far superior for less cost. the 5div was behind the 8 ball at it's release 5 years ago

[@DynamiteTony]

This is a no brainer, get the R6 all day long. I have just moved from 5Dmk4 to R6 and its not a choice you need to think about.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

@@JoshuaMcTackett I just invested in it, definitely was the move!

[@AndreiRestrepo]

@@DynamiteTony yep! Got it this week and it’s been great! Makes everything easier and faster!

[@meibing4912]

Traded in my 5DS/R for a R6. No regrets. But will get the high MPIX R when its comes out. Super AF, Eye AF, no need to microadjust lenses, rapid fire, in-body IS, flip screen etc: there's a long list of advantages. R6 sensor is also really great, less noise and more DR - but not as many MPIX. If you don't need fast and accurate AF 5DIV will do the job.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Pretty much sums it up! I’m thinking they might be the switch for me, we’ll see. Thanks for checking it out!

[@NoName-dz6mm]

I do have Mark IV for 4 years now and got my R6 before some weeks, the R6 with IBIS for videos is amazing on gimbal! Love the colors both of them - so both of cameras stay by me :)

[@AndreiRestrepo]

That’s awesome! Thinking about the same setup! Still on the 5d4 but I’m thinking this would pair great as my video oriented camera. Thanks for watching!

[@tbgtom]

The answer is YES. I've owned both, the Canon R6 beats the 5D4 in every conceivable way except megapixels.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Yep! I own both too since I decided to go with the R6 too. And I don’t miss the 30mp at all, don’t notice it! Thanks for watching!

[@SeeThruMyVisions]

I just bought a 5D Mark IV . Idk I have big hands the mirrorless wasn't doing it for me, also the EVF made my brain hurt lmao, and the battery life doodoo, it has a bunch of advantages dont get me wrong, but tbh if we're still comparing a dslr to a mirrorless that has to hold weight. Someone in the comments said they're waiting for Canon to have Mirrorless down packed to the T, and thats what ill do as well, im in no rush and this 5D Mark IV is a beast, workhorse for many years to come . Some people still shoot film ! It's what ever floats your boat been shooting for a while and the 5D has always been on my list to get and have in my collection regardless, so I'll keep this and wait 2, 3 Years for a finessed mirrorless that I feel good with. 🤞🏽🙏🏼 blessssssss

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey! Thanks for your input, totally agree with you! At the end of the day, it’s what you feel most comfortable with in your hands and get the job done. You’re right, 5d is a phenomenal photo camera and will be for many years. I got into more video work where the R6 definitely outshines canon dslr’s. Super glad you happy with your 5d, it’s definitely a beast! Thanks for watching

[@SeeThruMyVisions]

@@AndreiRestrepo agreed . I think for video mirrorless takes the cake however I do more photography than video. And even for the quality on the 5D for ME it's enough as of now for videos and short clips. Thank u for the reply as well and the content 🙏🏼!

[@otisrobertson3086]

Great video man. I watched the other video you made on the R6, and was very encouraged with it. I currently shoot with my Canon 80D, which I bought instead of the 6D Mark ii. I have had it for six years, and now ready to take my photography to another level. I was literally about to purchase the 5D Mark IV, but wrestling with the idea of just jumping into mirrorless. This video helped greatly, and I'm confident that making that move would be ok. I'll probably research it for a couple more week (lol) before I make the purchase, but your videos make the decision easier. Blessings bro.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Otis! Glad the video was helpful! Personally me owning both now, the R6 & 5D4, it’s almost no comparison. Obviously the 5d4 is a great photo camera and can do some video, but you’ll be getting so much more out of the R6, especially for photography! Thanks for watching!

[@otisrobertson3086]

@@AndreiRestrepo Indeed. I meant three years, not six.

[@basilbcf]

I currently have a 5D Mark IV. I am looking at the R6 or possibly the much more expensive R5. Of course price is a concern, but also the relatively low MP of the R6 (20) is 10MP less than my 5D4, and that has be concerned. For most shooting situations this would not be an issue, but for things like shooting wildlife and birds in flight (about 25% of what I shoot), the limits on resolution when cropping might be a concern. I think I am going to rent an R6 for a few days and do some stress tests with subjects the would need cropping and try to see how much of an issue this cropping limitation might be. If I find I'm happy with the results with a reasonable amount of cropping I will probably go for the R6. If I'm really unhappy with the limited on cropping and overall resolution, then I may have to suck it up and get the R5. I toyed with the idea of keeping the 5D4 and getting an R7, but the dense pixels on that camera, from what I've seen in reviews, introduces some significant hits with low-light performance and high ISO performance, so I think I'm probably not going that route.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey! I was in the same position. I rented the R6 and found it fit all my needs! Been using it for about a year now, works great! Massive upgrade in the video & autofocus dept. For me, I rarely crop in a lot. aside from he stand crop settings to adjust a photo so I don't even notice the fact it's 10mp less. But I def recommend you rent it to see if it fits your needs. Thanks for watching!

[@RogerZoul]

I made the switch to the r5 and I am very happy about that. Focus is better than ever and my EF lenses work better than ever. However, I will not be dumping all of my EF glass, namely the really expensive telephoto L glass with f4 aperture. The are very sharp, fast to focus, and render beautiful images. Selling them and rebuying RF versions would be very expensive and would offer little benefit to me. However, some lens will be replaced as they offer tangible benefits that i benefit from. But my main message is that people don’t need to feel as if they must replace all of their EF glass - those adapters work perfectly and make EF glass better than on a dslr (due to better focusing). Go on a case-by-case basis and remember that sharpness is NOT the only factor that makes a lens a great lens and most real people don’t even think about sharpness.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Anthony! Thanks for the info, really appreciate it! I agree, everything I’ve used the adapter it works great with all my ef lenses. Still wanting to test out the r5! Thanks for watching!

[@nighthawk20011]

A number of pro photographers I've spoke to are holding off for the next generation on mirrorless from Canon just to make sure any bugs that should appear in current gen are addressed. I'm still debating due to cost. Mirrorless are way out of my price range for what I need.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Jason, totally understand that. Probably a smart move! I’ve been running into some issues with mine in the past few months actually. Little glitches here and there, probably due to firmware. The camera has been nothing short of amazing aside from those things I’m running into now.

[@rblast1]

Renting and R6 for 10 days and love it. Auto focus is crazy good. Does sometime mess up with small bird in trees but I programmed the back button focus to the single square and another to face detection so it’s easy to change

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Nice! that’s smart, haven’t tried setting it up like that. Thanks for watching!

[@Alan3345]

I have the same setting and it's almost flawless. The R6 autoficus alone is reason enough to switch I love it so much 😍

[@savingspainmedia]

Have you had any issues with slightly lower megapixels? I am looking at the R5 and R6. R6 is more than double so it seems like it would be a good choice but the price is quite steep.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Jordan! Honestly, nope. 20 is more than enough for the work I do, especially real estate. I thought I was going to miss the 10mp’s but I don’t. Sure it would be nice to have double the MP’s for those situations to crop in if needed and just have that high res “look” but it’s not a big deal for my workflow. I’ve shot other work like weddings, headshots, portrait work, never had a problem. Plus the photos load faster and I think you’ll have a slightly better low light performance photo/video. Thanks for watching!

[@muhammadridwan1915]

hey i need ur opinion, now iam using r6, but some how i stll love the 5d m k iii colour, and thinking abt to upgrade to mk iv, but do u know is there any way to make the r6 colour look like the 5d series colour. i feel the 5d series colour is more bold and dimentional deep, thanks before.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey! I know what you’re talking about, the colors are not as nice as the 5D DSLR series straight out of camera. If you’re working in LR, try changing the profile from adobe color, to the camera matching profiles like Canon Faithful, Neutral, or Standard. That might give you those iconic colors you miss. Also check out Color Fidelity color profiles for canon that aim to give you better color profiles as well.

[@DreamofanObssesion]

I'm really having a hard time to decide whether I should go for a R5 body only or a 5D Mark IV with a 24-70 F2.8L II USM for the same price.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey dave! Though decisions! I guess I would ask myself what does the R5 have, that the 5D doesn’t that you really need? Like aside from advanced AF, do you need 45mp? Do you do a lot of video? I used a 5d4 & a 24-70 2.8ii for awhile and it was great setup. Now its even better with my R6. That’s why I said you should ask yourself if you really need 45 mega pixels or a 8K video, because the R6 would be an amazing upgrade and my choice or the 5d4 for and I believe they are the same price. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!

[@davidmalone4017]

I hear dust is more of an issue with mirror less??

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Yes true since the sensor is exposed, but there's a cover that comes down to cover it on canon mirrorless which helps! Thanks for watching!

[@paigeofstylez]

This is my EXACT situation. I have a rebel t5i and not sure if I should jump to 5D MKIV or str8 to mirrorless 😢

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Nice! I started on that exact camera, then went to a 6D, then 5d4, the r6, R6ii & R5C! I’d say if you do just photography, 5d4 would be great. I went to mirrorless because video is a lot better IMO. And EOS R, or R6ii would be worth looking at!

[@paigeofstylez]

@AndreiRestrepo FIRST, thank you for responding on a Sunday. My only concern is Canon won't be making any improvements to the EF and DSLR lines

@AndreiRestrepo I've already decided to go straight into portrait studio and wedding photography, ANYTHING with flash because I love the look and creativity of it 😍

Yup! Currently don’t have any RF lenses, don’t really see the need for it just yet. Super interested in testing some out but it works completely native with the adapter and EF glass. I use a EF versions of 16-35, 24-70, 24, 35, 50 primes

[@JoshuaMcTackett]

I actually have my Dad's 5div for an upcoming wedding back-up camera, and my main camera is the r6. (The R6 is bloody unreal) I'm watching this meditating on how to proceed to have 2 bodies. I may end up buying another mirrorless body and not even borrowing the 5div just for the workflow and shooting experience. I feel like running one dslr and one mirrorless presents workflow issues while shooting, but maybe that's just me and I need to relax. I've shot on dslr for years, but getting used to eye AF and mirrorless changes the way you shoot. It feels like using a DSLR will be mentally distracting on the day and I won't get my absolute best.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Joshua! Yup, you’re totally right! This reminds me of when I used to use my 6D (2012 camera) along with my 5d4. Didn’t work how I planned. 5d has fast AF which is still great but my 6D took ages to focus so that slowed me down a lot. Thanks for watching man!

[@JoshuaMcTackett]

@@AndreiRestrepo thanks for the reply mate! Subbed. I ended up getting the EOS R to compliment my R6 as a back-up. Should do me nicely for shooting things with high detail as well with the 5div sensor and higher megapixel count

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Thanks so much appreciate it greatly! That’s snigger reason I’m also leaning towards the EOS R to go along with my 5d. Both having 30mp would be nice!

[@rachel.isabelle]

what about battery life? how did you find that compared to the 5D?

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Honestly pretty comparable! 5d might have a little bit longer battery life which makes sense since it doesn’t have all the fancy features like ibis and EVF. But, the r6 has a new version of the lp-e6 battery that lasts longer. Thanks for watching!

[@jubjuber1]

The R6 also has an eco mode that shuts off the evf or dims rear view finder quickly when not in use to help. I can usually get 3 shoots on 1 battery

So I invested in the Canon R6, about a week and a half ago, and I absolutely love it. Everything I mentioned in this video is honestly all the main reasons and it works great.

Good video, however personally I just added a canon 90D and it makes up for situations that my 5D mark 4 doesn’t cover as well like video….

Nice. That’s a great camera too! I’d say the only drawback is that it’s a crop sensor compared to the full frame mirrorless R series. But impressive specs in that dslr!

[@cychreides3387]

Good Video - on point. Which Camera do you recommend for professional portrait photography?

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Thanks so much! Honestly either of these cameras would be great for that. Only reason I would recommend the 5d4 or even the R5, is if you have specific megapixel needs where you need more than 30mp. I went with the R6 and do a lot of portrait photography just fine! Thanks for watching!

[@MosleydollMUA]

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.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey! Totally get ya. As someone that’s owned a 5d4, it’s an incredible photo camera but lacks for video, at least compared to the r7. Sure, there might be a bit of a leaving curve learning all the new features on the r7, but worth it in the long run! That would be my pick. Thanks for watching!

5d mark 4 shooter here too! It aged well! Just got a sigma art 14-24mm f2.8 and definitely am seeing some pin cushion distortions even at 24mm. Is that normal lol? Lr doesn't detect that lense even in raw, so need to manually adjust. Wonder if it's a firmware issue. Phenomenal lense otherwise! 😎

Hey man! That’s awesome, I loved that camera. I got more into video so upgraded to the r6 then. Interesting, you have to manually select the lens profile?

5D4 vs R6, my biggest concern is EVF cause of lag

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey! Honestly not something that has affectedly workflow in any way, especially since I used the Live View on the 5d4 like 95% of the time. You can switch the EVF to "Smooth" where it's super nice for moving subjects. I think the trade off for more AF perks like Eye/subject AF, same capabilities as live view is worth it.

Hey, i’m a wedding photographer who shoots with 2 camera bodies. I wanted to change my 5dmrk3 for a r6 but keep my 5dmrk4 as the second camera body. Are the colora the same? I usually use lightroom to retouch and import all my pictures there. Do you think working with both 5dmrk4 and r6 will work well together?

Hey Aisha! Totally understand your concern. So the colors are different for sure, I can tell coming from my 5d4. But tbh they aren’t so different like another camera company or something. You’ll do just fine and a client won’t be able to tell the difference. I also think you’ll be super satisfied having the nicer, sharper, more dynamic sensor compared to the older DSLR’s.

Hello Andrei! Nice to meet you! I´m a videographer and started working with photography like 10 years ago, whe I got my first camera, a Nikon D7000, I remember and the last I had was a Canon 5D Mark iv and I was very happy with it but thinking on getting a Canon R6 maybe! I like making documentaries and I am about to start a new project and thinking about making it with the best quality!

Hey Nanu! Nice to e-meet you too! Nice, sounds like an exciting program. Honestly, I’d recommend the R6 for what you’re doing. If you’re used to canon, and even a 5d mark iv, you’ll love this one, basically an upgrade in every way, even for photography. Thanks for watching!

Nice! That was my previous camera too. I’d say the R6. 5d is a phenomenal photo camera, but super limited in the video dept. the R6 has a way nicer, sharper, more dynamic sensor so even 1080 looks way better on there than the 5d. Plus better AF, 10bit log color profiles, more dynamic range, 4k, tons of upgrades there.

[@LifeinGlow]

Hi Andrei, thanks for your video. I wonder what camera would you recommend for a lightweight setup for vlogging and travelling? I used to work as a photoreporter and a portrait photographer, had mainly Canon cameras like film, then 10d, 30d, 60d, 50d & now 70d :). Recently I tried both Canon 50d and later Sony ZV1 and both even if had some good features did not satisfy the quality & ease of operation. That is on sony the photo quality was way too low (say if to use it for vlog, stock photos, SM shots and traveling), in some cases phone did a much better job especially in low light conditions. Another drawback was lack of touch screen. Canon 50d which I tested in a trip was a bit tricky in terms of controls. Both cameras had controls deep in the menu. So what other camera could be a good compromise? Canon R6 it seems still too bulky even if I liked it from you reviews.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey there! Thanks for taking time to watch my video! Totally get where you’re coming from, it’s definitely a challenge to find the right camera that fits our needs! I think the R6 is too much for what you’re looking for. I’d recommend looking at the canon EOS RP! It’s a full frame camera for under $1000 that’s perfect for vlogging & taking photos!

The biggest issue for me is that all future R&D is going into mirrorless. As a result the value of DSLRs is dropping through the floor so trading them in now makes financial sense.

No need to test the others, the R6 is pretty much the best overall - until the inevitable A7IV comes out, but even that might not offer the 4k60p without a substantial crop on the sensor.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Nice! How do you compare it to the r5? Since I’m more a photographer, just wanting to know how those 45mp photos look! Thanks for watching!

[@p_adam19]

@@AndreiRestrepo I chose the R5 because of custom video modes, better rolling shutter in 4k30p mode, 4k120p slow motion and a higher quality screen to verify accurate focus for video (where I can't magnify during recording). But if I didn't get a good used deal on it, I probably would have gotten the R6 instead. As for the megapixel count, I don't feel there is a huge need for it. The biggest improvement over the R besides the IBIS for stills is the AF system and the way you can program multiple buttons for different AF modes, so you have those at your disposal at any time, no need to fiddle with single-point AF versus face-tracking or single-AF versus servo AF anymore you have an AF point selected but you can tell the camera to focus quickly on another object instead, I think it isn't as easy in other mirrorless cameras.

Amateur here, I bought the 5D4 a year and half ago and I'm happy with it. I do mostly night & day landscapes and I use it a lot on my family. I think my 5D4 forces me to think more and work harder to get the desired outcome and I'm thinking the newer bodies may make me lazy while I depend on the camera instead of tweaking the settings. Make sense? If I were making money at it I would surely upgrade to mirrorless & RF glass. What's funny now is that the R6 is $200 cheaper than the 5D4. Any thoughts on that? I wonder how can Canon justify that.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Russ! So I went from using a 5d mark iv to an R6 and it’s been quite the upgrade! Better AF, better image, video specs, etc. I’d say the only thing that’s “easier” on the mirror less cameras is the reliability of AF. On the 5d it was great, but on these it’s even better. To me, it’s like a mirrorless, upgraded version of my 5d, super happy with it! I think because it’s not their direct flagship camera, like the r5 is. Also, you won’t miss the extra 10 MP’s, image is so nice!

[@missmary2121]

Thank so much for this video! I currently shoot with a Mark 3 and a 50mm f1.2 prime lens and its been giving me some issues..its having a hard time focusing and doesn't shoot as fast anymore.

[@AndreiRestrepo]

Hey Mary! Glad you liked the video. The 50mm 1.2 is a fantastic lens, however gets a little soft at 1.2/1.4. Especially hard to nail focus with mark 3 like I showed in my example. Are you sitting the family sessions wide open apertures? You would probably have to shoot out like at 2.0 or higher if you’re using auto focus, or manually focus at like aperture is 1.2 to get it perfect. If you were to get an r6, so your photos would be tack sharp and would probably never miss focus. DPAF on the r6 is so good! Hope this helps, thanks for watching and let me know if you have any other questions!
