In this video, I have an update for you on the canon eos R Mark II - before we get
into the specifics, let's go back to December last year I talked about the
rumored canon eos our mark ii, and i compared it to the Canon 5d Mark 5.
That's this video here. I also did several other rumored videos where I
talked about four different canon camera bodies coming to us in 2020 with several
of them coming before the 2020 Olympics we just had the announcement of the 1d x
mark 3 and in those videos I talked about that we'd be seeing the 5d Mark 5
coming later in the year but we're likely gonna see a mirrorless equivalent
of that and the 5d mark ii which could be that mirrorless equivalent which is
really what i'm expecting and in this and in sorry I'm a little excited here
because this might be my new next camera so the 5d no not the 5d the eos our mark
2 looks to be an interesting camera we don't have a specific date on this but
what we do have is some specifications and it's very interesting let's take a
look and dig a little deeper so the canon eos our mark ii will have
the same number of megapixels as the canon 90 d it's gonna have 32 megapixels
but this is where things get a little different it's gonna have ibis yes we
talked about ibis coming to canon in 2020
now we've seen no information we've got no information from Canon seeing that
it's going to be in the 1 DX mark 3 but the rumors is that we're gonna first see
it in the EOS our mark 2 which is exciting it's the first canon camera to
have ibis the processor is going to be the digit 10 or the digit x but it's not
going to be the same one that came or that comes in the 1d x mark 3 so there
is gonna be a change and i don't know what that is there's nothing there's no
information on what the differences between the two are this camera is going
to be capable of 12 frames per second is it going to be like the 5d Mark for
where you can get close to 12 frames per second with continuous autofocus or is
it gonna be like the Mark one where essentially you were getting one two
three frames per second yeah one two three frames per second with continuous
autofocus Tony Northup did a really good in-depth piece on this and showed how
really slow it was so at 12 frames per second I'm hoping that that's gonna be
bumped up and it's gonna be a lot faster it was really criticized for that the
ISO range is gonna be 100 250 1200 and it's gonna have dual card slots but
they're not gonna be the same one's gonna be an SD card slot the other is
gonna be a CF Express slot so ycf Express 12 frames per second doesn't
dictate doesn't require that amount of speed because really CF Express is all
about speed we're talking about SSD speeds and faster so what I think this
is indicated indicative indicative of is 4k we're gonna get some really really
good throughput here we're gonna get some really good solid video we're gonna
see better dynamic range we're gonna see better color range we're probably gonna
see h.265 come which is a much better video compression codec than h.264 we're
probably gonna see all I I think that's why we're getting the CF Express the
good news is for video lovers hello me yes that's me but for ordinary
filmmakers yes this cameras gonna likely be at the upper end of your budget but
it's gonna have 4k uncropped what's going on
I think canons starting to listen to us and part of me is reaching out to Peter
Gregg because I know Peter was talking last year we've both been talking about
how Canon is changing they're listening to the consumers we have two cameras so
far one confirm and this one rumored that Kenneth's starting to listen to us
we're getting 4k uncropped we're getting four can crop and ibis in this camera
did hell just freeze over or something I don't know this is this is kind of
exciting this is this is exciting now as I mentioned in the video where I talked
about the 1dx mark three specifications I said we probably wouldn't see raw
video and sure enough this this rumor from Canon rumors calm says yeah you're
you're not gonna be getting raw video I do believe we're gonna get ten bit four
to two it's not in the rumor but I would be really surprised if they stuck us
back with 8-bit I think that would be a major criticism of this camera it's in
the 1d it wouldn't be too hard to bring the technology down here so what do you
guys think would does this excite you if you're a Kenan fan does this excite you
if you're not into Kenan what do you think I personally think that cannon is
is changing they are starting to listen there's gonna be some level of crippling
cameras otherwise you're not going to have a huge difference between your low
end your mid end in your high end I don't mind if it's reasonable I have
particularly use cases I do YouTube and I do run and gun work so I want a camera
that produces a pretty steady video in body image stabilisation is great
because I can now buy lenses that don't have stabilization and that that really
gives me opens up the doors to a whole bunch more lenses so I'm very excited
about that and 4k if you want to watch this video here I talk about the
benefits of shooting 4k in 1080p projects
I can't state how important this is the ability to shoot 4k then bring that
video in to 1080p 1080p project you can do things like simulate multiple camera
angles so you start with your 4k frame you zoom in you back out you can zoom
into another area and it makes it seem like you've got multiple cameras and you
can do pans with zero rolling shutter I don't care if the EOS arm r2 has rolling
shutter if I'm planning a pan in my mind from here over to here
well I shoot wide for that range and then in post
I just crop in and I create my endpoint my keyframe here and as far as I want to
pan I keep my keyframe there and I've just created a beautiful pan with zero
rolling shutter so 4k I find to be absolutely incredible
having h.265 is also very very significant it's much
more efficient it's a much more capable codec we're able to preserve more
information and produce a better picture some more dynamic range more color etc
we'll also likely see the 10 bit chief file format hif or hei f and that's
exciting too so yeah I'm a little excited and I'm a little bit biased here
too because I've been shooting with this Canon 70d for seven years I've been
ready to upgrade for a while and I was hoping I am still hoping to stick with
Canon because I have a bunch of lenses and I don't want to have to invest in
more lenses with what I've got now I can buy the new camera body and I can
purchase a different lens that I hadn't thought of having before something
different if I go to the Sony a7 3 for example which hasn't been announced yet
then I have to start off with my general-purpose lens and I've got a 15
millimeter I have to spend an awful lot of money just to get to where I am today
so it's not that I wear Canon tattoos I'm not a fanboy I'm just kind of
excited because it looks like all the mandatory or critical capabilities that
I was looking for detail 4k detailed 1080p better stabilization be it lens
and body or a combination that's pretty exciting to me I almost forgot the EOS
arm art 2 is also rumored to have a hundred and twenty frames per second in
yep 1080 so that's really good news hopefully the AF will be there will be
there I suspect it will so that's really good news if you guys have any questions
