Take my money Canon, seriously, my bank accounts gonna go to zero anyways,
but have all the money you wan
Have you seen the specs on this soon to be Canon R5?
Bonkers. I'm excited, you're probably excited, the internet is definitely
excited, and I'm here for you. We're gonna go beyond the excitement and
ask some questions, this is gonna be a bit emotional.
Before I get into it shout out to Canon for supporting this video

So in case you haven't heard here are some of the crazy specs.
The camera is gonna feature a brand new full-frame CMOS sensor with a new image
processor and you're gonna get continuous shooting up to 20 frames per
second using the silent shutter and 12 frames per second shooting with the
mechanical shutter. That's getting up there to something like the EOS 1 DX mark III.
Now the camera is also going to feature 8k video recording, now we don't
know what the frame rate is or what the bit rate is but 8k video is right now
going to be the highest spec on any mirrorless camera
This is gonna be the first camera from Canon equipped with internal image stabilization or IBIS.
The camera is also going to feature dual card slots, it's also going to feature
some new wireless connectivity features. Canon is setting up a new cloud platform,
it's gonna be Image.Canon and the cameras going to feature a joystick for
controlling your AF points. There's not going to be the multifunction touch bar
anymore and there's gonna be also the rear control wheel, so if you look at
images of the back of the camera it's gonna look more like the 5d Mark IV.
Now with all these specs and yes we're limited on the full details of the R5
but it shows that Canon is really pushing the envelope on what you can get
out of a hybrid mirrorless camera and I'm just wondering what the other brands
are gonna do considering all the rumors for those cameras don't show that
they're going to be on par with this new R5 from Canon.
All right we have those insane specs but let's take a step back because
I have a few questions that haven't yet been addressed. This camera's going to be
capable of doing a lot, 20 frames per second, 8k video, but you know after
looking at the pictures of the camera I don't see anywhere where there's gonna
be ventilation, and I'm sure shooting that high frame rate and high resolution,
it's gonna get hot so where's the heat gonna go. That's one question.
Another thing that hasn't been addressed is that it's going to be able to record
8k but for how long. If there's no ventilation, are these
going to be short bursts of video? Dual card slots, which cards are going to be
used? I can only assume that we're going to go with the CF Express cards just
because of all the information that's gonna be pushed off the sensor, but we
still don't know yet. Also what codec, what bitrate and what frame rates are
the Canon r5 gonna record in? Now is this gonna also have raw video capture
internally like the 1D X mark III or maybe externally to either an SSD Drive or
outputted through the HDMI port to an external recorder. Now what I'd like to
see is Canon allow you like the Sigma FP to record raw footage straight out from
the USB type-c port. And here's the kicker what's going to be the price?
We don't know but what we do know is it's not gonna be cheap.
My guess is somewhere around four to five thousand dollars for the camera body.
So a preview of the EOS R5 will be on display at WPPI Show, February 25th
through the 27th in Las Vegas. And I'm still waiting for my invite Canon. Hello!
In addition to the R5 Canon also plans to release 7 RF lenses and 2 RF lens
extenders a 1.4 and a 2x that are currently in development with an RF 100
to 500 millimeter lens. Is the Canon R5 something you're looking forward to? and
