it's official canon just announced a price and release date for the new and
highly anticipated eos R5 professional full-frame mirrorless
camera and what's more a scaled-down option that'll take the form of
the EOSR6 for those of you following my channel or
just watching this space you'd already know that Canon had been teasing the
release of the EOSR 5 since january of 2020 when they slowly released
confirmation of some of the main specs of this camera and although canon didn't
initially confirm the R6 there were many rumors about it online and sure enough
it looks like they were justified since the rise of social media and independent
journalists we've seen an increase in rumors speculation and even product
leaks on the one hand when the information is true this can be a great
service to the consumer but the downside is they're quite often we're fed a diet
of false truths exaggeration and sometimes even myth desire to feed into
the desires and expectations of the end user rather than reflect the reality of
product development objectives of the brand a classic example of this is the
Apple Worldwide Developers Conference that just passed where a whole range of
exciting product releases had been speculated from a completely redesigned
iMac to a new over-ear set of headphones and even a whole new product category in
the form of a hourglasses none of which eventuated leading to
bitter disappointment and people unnecessarily holding off on that
essential purchase based on the rumors preceded the event so in order to combat
this trend canon in my opinion did a great thing by playing into the rumor
mill and teasing out and confirming the specs of their up-and-coming cameras as
such we had a great idea of what was coming and now just as canon are ready
to launch we have the full pricing and release date confirmed so before I go
over a summary of the specs and the differences between the newest r5 and r6
and whether they're worth it let's take a look at the pricing
but top-of-the-line r5 with its 45 megapixel CMOS sensor and ability to
shoot 4k 120 fps and 8k raw uncropped along with ibis and dual SDF memory card
is clearly aimed at the professional and it's going to have a price point to
match if you want to get access to this feature step we're looking at an RR p of
3900 us or you can buy it in kit form with a 24 to 105 f/4 for around 5000 and
I'll begin shipping by the end of July for the everyday shooter the canon eos
r6 with a 20 megapixel sensor and 4k shooting with no crop along with ibis
and dual SD card slot could be a more attractive proposition coming in at
around 2500 us for the body only there's also an option to get it with the 24 to
105 f/4 RF lens and that'll come in at around 3600 us the r6 is landing a
little later where it's expected to ship at the end of August 2020 there's also a
new optional BTR 10 battery grip that will be compatible with both the else r5
and r6 and also a secondary option which has extended Wi-Fi capabilities and
Ethernet port so if you've been holding out for one of these new cameras what
are the main differences and which one is should you buy at the core of the sr5
is a brand new 45 megapixel CMOS sensor and the digit X processor which allows
the else r5 to capture 8k raw video and up to 30 P 10 bit for to to internal 4k
up to 120 P and full resolution still images at up to 20 frames per second
with the electronic shutter or 12 frames per second mechanical shutter all
internally without any sort of crop or focus limitations the sr5 also has five
axis in body image stabilization built to work together with the inline
stabilization found on some our f-mount lenses the system reportedly provides up
to eight stops of Shake Reduction and of course is ideal for those of you
shooting video out and about in the field finally in terms of design some
minor changes to the ergonomics including the removal of a touch bar
which has now been replaced with the more traditional joystick dial a 5.7
$6,000,000 DF EVF with 120 Hertz refresh rate the 2.1 million dot fully
articulating LCD screen duel card slots 1 CF express and 1 UHS 2 SD a microphone
port headphone jack micro HDMI and built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
connectivity all inside a weather drip and dust resistant body the cheaper
consumer-focused sr6 sports a 20 point 1 megapixel CMOS sensor the same digit X
processor found in the sr5 and this allows the are six to shoot 10 bit for 2
to 4k video up to 60 P 1080 120p slow-motion but there's no option to
shoot at 8k there's no raw video either but still shooters get the same advanced
dual pixel CMOS AF 2 and the same either system as the else 5 you get to shoot
full res 20 point 1 megapixel stills at 20 frames per second using the
electronic shutter 12 frames per second mechanical shutter which is the same as
l5 finally as expected the ESR 6 is a little more stripped down in terms of
design there's no top LCD the OLED viewfinder is slightly lower and
resolution and the fully articulating LCD screen on the back is also a bit
lower rest at one point 6 2 million dots you still get dual card slots both at
UHS 2 SD a microphone port headphone jack a micro HDMI port and built-in
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for wireless control or image transfer and
the camera has weathered rip and dust ceiling on par with the Canon EOS 5d
series so now that we have the full picture specs release that and pricing
