finally I've got both cameras in hands of course I'm talking about Canon R5
and R6 and now it is really Canon is finally back well when I'm saying
"Canon is back" when, of course the EOS R is almost two years now, I have
said it last time that Canon is actually serious about mirrorless this time
People are not completely satisfied with EOS R but it just proved that Canon is
serious this time and this, is proof that Canon is super serious this time so
let's get to it let us start right at some 8K
footage this is DCI 8K
and you can crop into 100% in 4K obviously
this is amazing and no holding back Canon give you 10-bit 4:2:2 8K
now DCI is wider than what we used to, the UHD 4k or 8K. if you shoot
UHD 8K it cut away the left and right side from the DCI 8K into this so can
you say the UHD 8K is cropped?
depends I guess? and when you shoot with R6
it only shoot 4k and it got a slight crop 1.07x crop
interesting is that the R6 slight crop round up roughly the same kind of crop to
R5 shooting 16:9
Now this is the first time ever Canon camera
got a in-body stabilization as well now their lens I.S. is already really good
ever since when I was using the 5D Mark II, Mark III, I love the lens I.S.
they are good enough for video shooting
now combining with lens I.S. it can do up to
8 stops of stabilization which is crazy now for now without a head-to-head
comparison I feel like this level of stabilization
is, it looks like the same as Canon unusual in-lens stabilisation
but I have to borrow some camera and lens and do more tests later to see how
much of a difference is the sensor-shift in-body stabilization
of course Canon got their really great Dual Pixel AF and now this
is Dual Pixel AF II it is mark II as well what is it new?
this got 1055... 1053 points of AF points across the sensor, so many of
them and the AF points are covered the whole sensor, the whole sensor 100%
can do auto focusing whatever you move to the really edge of the frame it can
still focus and also it got AI deep learning whatever deep thinking
the first time I heard of it is from Panasonic S1 and it was great because
when you turn around it can still focus it can recognized a human body or
even in this case it can even recognize the head even if you had turn around
this is really great this is what technology is about! because before
that you have to have a face for you to recognize but now even the back this is great
now I saw this on Panasonic S1 at the first time I was so impressed but
the problem with Panasonic is that it can recognize but it can't focus on it sometimes
but this obviously should be much better even in back lighting situation
now I have to say in my test sometimes even when I went back a little
bit it lost track of my face but it could be because this is a prototype
camera it has a beta firmware and maybe because I was wearing mask
again later I will have to borrow a retail final version camera and do more
tests to confirm this. now Canon said that it support human eye focusing and animal
including cats, dogs and birds. Canon show some footage with us like this cat
eye focusing; what's more even this dog is not looking at lens it still can focus
on its head. of course Canon said it can focus on the bird
even bird eye AF
but what's more now this is not officially support with this this is a meerkat?
or something I just, I just read this from a Google search and a sloth? upside down?
turtle eye AF! and fish what the hell fish eye AF!?
Canon is crazy
crazily good!
the price you have to pay for 8K is the price of a new computer!
I have a 2017 iMac and it can't just playback those 8K footage I have to do
transcoding but even after that it just improves a slight little bit until I
set my Final Cut Pro to better performance which when it playback a
lower resolution version and now I can actually edit these footages
it just remind me of the early days of 4K
what's more in total I have only shot 8 minutes of 8K footage today the total
size is 76GB which I have been used to 64GB card
the biggest news of the R5 is obviously the 8K actually taking photo it's not bad as
well because they got 45 megapixel and it's got a really no joke burst rate
12 fps mechanical shutter, 20 fps electronic shutter which is like a huge middle
finger to Sony but this time I forgot to borrow a longer lens I've only got a
15-35mm ƒ/2.8 I will borrow this camera later and borrow a better lens for this
kind of shooting obviously
but the first thing you notice when you grip it in
your hands is of course the grip because the grip is just so Canon you
know that if you have used Canon for a while you pick it up and you know that this is
a Canon I think it's got the same feeling just like the EOS R for someone
who have been using Sony camera for a long time I like this grippy grip a lot
now one big thing is the EVF because is big, in,
dots! it has got a 5 point something k dots! and it got 120fps
refresh rate it is so, it is so smooth, it's so smooth it's almost like looking out
with a OVF that is how great it is and the 5 point... sorry about that!
5.76 million dots is exactly the same as the Panasonic S1 the
previous best EVF and this have it exactly the same
now the R6 has a slightly less... well maybe not slight, it has a
slightly less dots just 3.68 million dots which is actually not
bad and especially both have 120fps refresh rate which is lovely which is just
so lovely now on the body two camera doesn't
really have that much different the biggest difference of
course the R5 got a LCD on top but R6 got a mode dial but other
than that most of the things are basically the same record button same
on/off button is the same button on the back is exactly the same you still got
this really great joy stick you've got this really mode dial...
not mode dial, the dial! which both camera have three dials which is really handy
you got one two and three dials you got one dial for each setting shutter speed
aperture... no this is the ISO and aperture both of them got dual card slots now what the
main complain about the EOS R had been sorted R6 you got two SD cards
R5 you've got a CFexpress and a SD card slot
the ports are same same but different you've got a sync cord here flash sync cord on the R5
you've got a remote connection for R6 you've got small HDMI, the micro HDMI
output and the USB-C now this USB-C if you've got a PD
compatible USB-C power bank you can power the camera while you're shooting
and of course you can charge the battery with this something quite interesting is
that switching from the LCD and EVF is really quick with this two
cameras look at that! this is probably I think it probably the fastest to switch between
them that I've ever seen this is, look at that!
now this is just the First Lok video, a first look
video because I... this is so early I can't borrow them back to do a full
view yet I'm in Canon office in Hong Kong with pretty great office here this
is just an influencer workshop so I can't really borrow them to test out
the overheating is it really a big problem is it just a load of fuss on the web one
thing about the R5 I think is that I really hope that they have a 5K or 6K
option because this only provide 4K and 8K but I guess the reason is that
this sensor is designed for 8K it's really easy to give you a oversample
4K footage but maybe not 5K 6K but I do hope that it is, there's an option maybe a
slight crop I don't really mind 6K, 5K would be really useful to
deliver 4k content but without a huge file of 8K so there you go R5
R6 First Lok video thanks for watching now we are just going to see
what Sony is going to do about this
