The Canon R8 📷 (Mini Beast Camera)

The Canon R8 IS OUT! The R8 is the perfect combination of performance and value. It's essentially the internals of the more expensive Canon R6 mkii but scaled down into a smaller more affordable body.

Single card slot, and no joy stick are also notable. Love your content!

[@77dris]

Good points. Though the single card slot isn't really a big deal. I've shot 18 years as a pro and had some of Canon's best 1D cams that were the first with dual card slots... never used them and I shot events that had more on the line than weddings. Now with touch/drag AF on the new Canon R cams, you can move the AF point around with your thumb on the lcd screen while looking through the EVF and it's actually faster than the joystick. I have the R6 II and rarely use the joystick anymore because of this.

[@W93h3753mwesley]

Exactly, 😂 might ad well use the screen ​@@77dris single card slot? How often do pros with high end card expierence card malfunctions? Ive never had a dual card slot and have never had a card corrupt or be unrecoverable. I have the R6mii now and ill just be using it to store an extra SD card 😅

Reminds me of what Fuji has done with the X-S10 as a scale down of the X-T4. Just that the X-S10 also has IBIS. I think it's great that they make scale down versions that don't make too many compromises but cost a lot less. Great for beginners or people who don't have a months salary to spend on their camera 😅

Really nice camera I want to upgrade from my cannon powershot sx400 IS that is why I love these videos to see what is out their

[@otm646]

IBIS is 20 year old technology, and one of the biggest improvements to modern mirrorless cameras. Look at what OM System can accomplish with it. No way I'd go without it unless you only shoot from a tripod.

[@NPColoured]

IBIS on the R5 handheld is not as great as its made out to be, as an editor I hate getting handheld footage (when its not motivated), gimbal and tripod footage is just better for professional work, so IBIS doesnt really count 🤷🏽‍♂️ but the R5 footage looks better regardless.. even the autofocus can sell you down the river at a crucial moment so you still go manual focus in a clutch moment, like a wedding kiss, had the R5 catch eye focus on the guests sitting in the church front row watching the kiss, because the bride and groom were wide profile 😂😂😂 I was like WTF R5!!! how you gona sell me out like that man?? Bra I watched the focus shift to random people at the main moment, don't put all your trust in it, is all im saying.

[@BaldRavenHaired]

Ibis is a 20 year technology , held back by camera giants , so that they can milk cash out in the name of flagship feature. Main while Iphones here are doing 10x better job while as doing its job as phone ! 😂 , in fact almost all of these professional features such as bigger battery , joystick control and Ibis are long due from being the basic features of a camera in 2024!

[@xFreyelis]

Single SD Card, extra risk if used professionally especially for 1-time events that you cannot repeat... So mainly, this can be used casually or on semi-professional level only (events or shoots that can be repeated in an unforeseen scenario, like a corrupted SD).

[@AStageForTheKingdom]

Or you shoot tethered to an iPad or other device using tether software that can automatically save the images to both the memory card in the camera AND the tablet.

[@xFreyelis]

@@AStageForTheKingdom tried that, severely depletes the battery faster, and the buffer also slows down as it needs to process the transfer as well as the new images being taken

[@JamesM2667]

My canon eos r doesn’t have ibis it’s basically for video cuz when you move the sensor is essentially moving to to compensate for your shakey hands it’s great for handheld video work but doesn’t do much for photography

[@TrevorQuinnPhotography]

Of course ibis helps for photography also. Means you can shoot at a much slower shutter speed hand held then you can just with the lens IS.

[@ItzDerrik]

I never truly understood the IBIS when lenses have IS now days and a basic fumble is way cheaper than paying for the next model up with IBIS. I have a steady hand with video and my lens picks up the rest of the minor movements and handles it.

[@WhyitJellyDonut]

Its nice to have with really long lenses as you dont need as fast shutter speeds, so nature/wildlife photography its very useful.

[@ValentynNFT]

What’s ibis good for?

[@willoughbykrenzteinburg]

​@@ValentynNFTits In Body Image Stabilization IBIS. Many lenses come with image stabilization. IBIS adds onto this by providing image stabilization for lenses that do not have it or in tandem with lenses that do. This feature is more advantageous for video where every tiny movement of the camera is seen. Bottom line, it's just another layer of image stabilization.

[@willoughbykrenzteinburg]

IBIS didn't exist a few years ago. If it's a deal breaker, then how we're uou able to take a photograph 3 years ago? Good lord....
