Thanks for your thoughts, they were super helpful to tons of us that are still debating what to do.
Can you please where did you rent it? B&H too as stated in the description box?
Thanks
Sup brother. Latest updates on overheating is mainly all screen on time. It’s what’s burning things up faster than cards, battery, etc. limit your screen on time to get longer times. But you can use cards / battery in camera since they don’t make much of a difference anymore.
Also, pro-tip. The red video button defaults to the shooting settings of you C3. So you can quickly jump to that mode when shooting photos, without diving into menus
Starting to get a headache
I’m glad you touched on the customizations. This camera can be set up for anything the way you want it. I set up shutter for center point and AF for wide selection. I use the C1, C2, and C3 for different photo and video configurations. You also have to set up the AF cases for different situation. The most customizable camera I have ever used.
Great video! Never having any serious camera equipment before, we feel fortunate to be in a time where such great technology is being released from Canon, Sony etc. Your speaking skills are great! I stutter and fuck up all the time on our videos and need to work on that myself haha!
I shot my first music video with the R5 at 4K 60 hq today. Never got an overheating warning after over 100 clips while shooting on a hot roof. My only downside is that the rf 28-70 is like filming with a bowling ball.
excited to see the video!
Can we see that video
Also that lens is too heavy
Makes me wanna switch to Canon, but based on the A7SIII I have a feeling I'll be happy with the A7IV... whenever that comes out.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
Olórin feeling exactly the same. I have a feeling that if I switch to the r5 now I’m going to have nightmares when the a7siii comes out.
@@stevenstevensteven4 Haha ya same. I really don't want 8K either. Just give me damn good 4K and good slowmo. Now that things are going 10 bit I feel like it really doesn't matter what camera you have as you can change colors so much in post. A7Siii looks great for video. And A7IV hopefully will cover what I want for photo.
@@faenjeggiropp I know! I'm too investing in sony glass at this point. Don't wanna go through the hassle of selling it all and buying RF glass. Just did a shoot the other day with my friend who is a tattoo artist, and man my A7III can still surprise me sometimes.
Sony IV would be the a9II with perhaps the a7SIII screen and menu at best. (Unless they've skipped a generation like the a7SIII)
Witch RF lens do you recommend for video?
If there is one thing that I miss from shooting with Canon is the way the grip and buttons feel in general. The design of Canon bodies is also beautiful and very functional. If only they had been quicker with their Mirrorless development and given proper attention to video...
Honestly if the R5 & R6 had 4k30 and 1080p 120 but WITH dual card recording for video, I would have seriously consider switching back from Sony
I recorded for over 2hrs in 4k HQ clog without the cards in the camera. I have it to where the screen shuts off after about a minute. I've heard if you leave the screen on it will overheat faster.
Still waiting on my preorder, I got the rf100-500 and battery grip arriving Wednesday and BHphoto sent me an email that I should have it by September 16. So hopefully there should be new firmware coming with lower bitrates and clog 3 to help with the overheating, also there’s new CFexpress cards coming out with better heat management as well which should help out too...so it’s seems like things are getting better
So, the 100-500 is actually available / shipping? That's the lens I need to be released if I were to be able to fully replace my Sony kit.
Trippalhealicks WHcamera has them instock, they do Astro photography to
R5 and A7r IV owner. Adapting gets annoying for your normal non telezoom lenses. I think for the average hobbyist/semi pro, sony is still a much better $$ value in glass and body. I only got the R5 so I wouldn't have to buy an A9 and run the A7 riv. Will move back to canon slowly for everything. It would be really nice if Sigma would release RF mount glass. It's kind of a bummer to be on a mirrorless system just to adapt old dslr glass.
I'm a Canon 1DX mk2 user who got the R5, I'm loving it so far I actually only have 1 Canon lenses,bthe 70-200 L is very, I own mostly Sigma Art, the 24, 35, 50, 85, 105, 135. All my EF mount lenses work great with the EF to RF drop in filter adapter, the eye tracking AF is amazing, I rarely look through the EVF when I cover my events, 8 just look on the back of the LCD to compose, the optional BGR-10 dual battery grip works great. I've done some video clips but mostly use it as a commercial event photographer, works great, even though I've never owned a Sony, I appreciate them to keep driving Canon and other manufacturers to innovate.
I’ve got the rf 70-200mm and rf85mm and both are incredible. Paired up with the R5 (soon?), it’ll be perfect.
Not a canon shooter here.. but its great to see some competition. The AF on the canon looked amazing and the fact you can adapt a wider range of lenses, at a more economical price than going full native.. + you get all of the advancements of AF mirrorless is amazing (eye af etc). It's just a shame the R5 has been ”oversold” due to the 8k overheating ”issues”.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
it would be great to hear your thoughts on the R6 if you manage to rent one? More for the video side of things. I still believe the R6 should offer some kind of 4k 24/30fps recording mode like the R5 has, that "doesnt" have a limit. The R6 still only offers (at the moment) IPB so apparently not as demanding on the camera.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
I got the r6 and its THE BOMB. Im getting birds eyes in focus with adapted lenses its insane.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
If I may suggest, try the crop mode and compare to the HQ. You won't have overheating worries.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
Put the screen to shut off after one minute and basically only use to adjust settings or focus.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
Also, hop on one foot and bark like a dog...I heard that really helps too!
You have the same dilemma as myself, r5 and an older 600 f4 IS lens would cost less than the Sony 400 2.8. I would like to know how the af works with the bigger lenses as from what I’ve seen so far the hit rate seems about the same as with the a7riv rather than a9 performance.
Is the 4K 60p HDMI output a full sensor scan and downsampled to 4K (like the internal HQ mode)?
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
Americans are so lucky, the EU is forgotten by canon, we will get one in january 2021
Quick question, does your R5 have the latest firmware update version 1.1? Just trying to figure out why you couldn't replicate what No Life did.
When you turn off overheat control then you have to have the screen turn off in 30 seconds. You want heat control on when you record internally and off when you record externally.
Also, when you pour sugar in your coffee, be sure to stir your coffee clockwise, and not counter-clockwise, if want it to get sweet.
The overheating king 👑 is back 🔥🔥🔥
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
the artificial timer cripple hammer is back!
I'd love to switch to the R5 from a7iii. But, I feel the body and RF lens are too expensive.
Actually, unlike using Ef-e mount adapters. R/RP/R5/R6 using EF-RF adapter works as well as the native RF. Therefore there is no need to buy all of the RF L lenses
plz will you tell about overheat issue, if i shoot Raw & jpg both for day long, not vdo.
Love this Camera, but as I use it t just seems like so many compromises. Log profiles , 29:59 record limits, micro HDMI, files sizes, h.625, needing cf express cards, of course over heating, lens sizes, dynamic range, no sound in 120p ....but it’s weird But the Camera still inspires me to shoot, I don’t need all of those features it just feels limiting . The R6 is a ton of fun but overheats in all 4K modes 🤷
I couldn't render in 8k on DaVinci Resolve it kept giving me a GPU full error ugh
Thanks for the review...there are so many critical reviews regarding R5's overheating and I don't appreciate the fact Canon released this system with these significant problems. It's not worth $3.8 with known thermal issues and ridiculous workarounds. Would be great if the A7SIII had a 24 MP sensor and the latest Lumix S5 would be a world beater...BUT they kept the crappy DFD (?) focus. So, perhaps the A7IV will drop out of the womb soon or Canon will recall the R5s and fix their problem!
First of all you need to test the camera with its native lens not sigma or any adopted lens you will get better results with the rf lenses.
The display on the R5 has to be allowed to go to sleep in energy save mode so the display will go to sleep after a minute to prevent overheating with the Ninja V.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
pls compair 4k non HQ on R5 vs 4k A7III. tks
People say Canon R6 color science is inferior to the R5, you can see that on Camera Conspiracies channel
Please test this camera with the flash!
Hey, what's your thoughts on the Panasonic S5!? I really really feel it makes the R6 redundant. Omg and after watching camera conspiracies videos on the R5 & R6 both looked pretty bad!. From what I can see and tell apart from the canon auto focus the R6 literally has nothing the S5 does and the S5 is nearly £1000 BP less! On the topic of the auto focus which again camera conspiracies showed the auto focus on the R5 was/is absolutely terrible in low light conditions!. Effectively the Sony A7S3 just kills the R5 off in terms of video that's pretty much accepted now and ya I think the S5 kills the R6 so I don't really see any market for either. Apart from the R5 as an exclusive photography camera!.
If you are just shooting stills this is probably fine. Why the heck would you use this for video with the chance of overheating? That would drive me crazy.
if they made it a bigger body with 6k, and dropped the price to $2500-3000, it'd be the #1 selling camera for the next year or 2.
Unfortunately I doubt the tilta cooling thing will work!. Because the place it attached to is plastic! So it's going to have to try and suck heat through the plastic where it attaches behind the LCD and of course plastic insulates heat!. So I don't see how that fan is going to one penetrate that plastic and two extract the heat through that plastic!. I honestly think if it makes any difference it'll be negligible at best.
Hmmm I’m stuck. I’m about to buy a camera as I sold my last one. It’s between the R5 or the a7r 4.
I have the A7RIV its amazing
Buy the Pentax! It's the future.
I have the a7r IV and am seriously thinking about changing. Better glass, sensor covered when switching lenses, the flip-around screen, and the feel and sound is just better. The only thing that would keep me on Sony is the $ (expensive to switch) and the community. Sony community is way better.
Perry Kibler i Just places my order on the R5. Definitely super expensive, but personally I just have an overall better experience with the handling and use of canon.
I'm a sony user I have a7lll the only downside it's the screen and the viewfinder I m still have my old canon 6d and it have an a incredible screen even my phone have 10 bit hdr so I can't understand why sony put this quality because sony make TV's and phones for years so have more experience in that than the others brands .
Thanks for the review...after the overheating issue, I cancelled my pre-order. I was considering the A7SIII, but believe the R5 is a far better hybrid--providing they resolve the heating issue. Would appreciate your review/thoughts using EF L lenses during video--some have reported wobble.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
They won't resolve the overheating, especially not now.
the rtx 3090 won't help because it doesn't have the required hardware encoders.
Anyone have any intel on when the next shipment will be?
I’m looking for that info too. I’m based in the UK
Emmanuel Boadi From what I’ve heard, they are working hard on the reproduction. I’d rather have them take their time and build a solid piece of gear than rush it and have more issues. That said....me thinks I’m becoming impatient haha
The overheating is practically solved with very easy, small hacks.
1) If you get the overheating sign, just stop the recording, increase the day of the date by one, and then rapidly remove the battery. Turn it back on, and you are good to go again without overheating (source: www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=24827.msg230515#msg230515 )
2) No life did also an internal test of 8k IPB with a tiny 40mm USB fan pointing towards the temperature sensor and got over one and a half hour continuous 8k recording without any overheating. (source: czcams.com/video/_K5HG1rlnVc/video.html )
So, the R5 is a killer cam with these workarounds.
Over heating is nothing to do with body temperature. It's about canon timer. It's up to canon.
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
Yeah, one camera for sports. That’s the Sony dilemma , no 20fps for photo & 4K60p.
The best camera for 2020 !!!
turn the screen on the camera off when on atomos ninja....
4K 🔥czcams.com/video/GmSOoaFeNRk/video.html
Don't forget if you're shooting long events, regardless if it overheats or not, it will stop recording at 29:59!
That only applies if recording internally
If you’re using the Ninja V, remember to set the camera’s LCD screen to shut off after a minute; if you keep the LCD screen off, “overheating” shouldn’t be a problem.
Seems like the R5’s “overheating” is actually a cripple hammer linked to the amount of time the LCD screen is on, not the actual temperature of the camera.
The jumping ship business just doesn’t compute for me. People who jump must have lots of cash. I like my money too much. While it was clear to me that Canon was getting further and further behind back in 2017, I still had too much invested in gear for it to make sense to jump. It was not like the images sucked, either. I was getting shots that held up against any system and I was not doing video. I watched as many Canon users sold off their gear. Heck. I was the one buying it. I got my 500 mm f/4L II in brand new condition for half price because of the sell off. Now that I have my R5, I feel like a frigging genius for being too cheap to jump ship. So, if I had Sony gear now I would stay the course. They will be leap frogging each other every iteration so switching is just going to drain your bank account. But I am almost fully ML now...I feel all I need is an R7 with a crop sensor to complete my package, stilling using several EF lenses, too. I am not selling off my EF glass if it can perform at 12/20 fps on the R5, no way. That RF glass is nice, but sharpness is not king, content is. Content will win out 10 times out of 10, so slow down on the spec war, as gear just needs to be good enough to allow the content to show through.
Well said 👆🏻
I personally don't get how Canon has leaped frogged Sony. Between the a(II, a7rIV, and now the a7sIII, I don't see any leap frogging... just user preference. But in terms of technology, the are all about the same. Canon just decided to give more feature than they used to and compete. They have only leap frogged hemselves.
@@TOKSVISIONZ Animal eye AF, 12/20 fps at 45 MP, and 8k video.
@@RogerZoul Other cameras already have animal eye AF, up to 20 fps, i don't see that as being a leap ahead. And 8K on this camera is extremely limited to the point that people are saying we should just look at it as a photo camera. And if you want to say 8k is still impressive, then there is no way a 45MP camera has leaped beyond a 61MP. Some will see 61MP isn't needed and takes too much space, I will say the same for 8K.
@@TOKSVISIONZ Which cameras have animal eye AF up to 20 fps at 45MP - with tracing? List them off, please. There are plenty of people making interesting video at 8k, so those who say it is limiting are simply either not informed or biased. The 61 MP camera is slow and has a very limited buffer, so it is not usable in the same ways at the r5 is. No one is saying 61 MP isn't needed and that doesn't matter, as those who want it can have it. In the same way, 8k is needed by those who want it. The fact is Sony is the main competitor anyone in the ML market, so what other little companies do doesn't matter in the game of leapfrog, only the big boys. Those who can command 45 % market share, for example.
If camera is overheating, change date +1 day and immediately pull dummy battery to reset overheating timer. ( or use the grip and pull the battery from there that nay also work ). twitter.com/FilmkitNet/status/1302576125416214529. idea from www.visionrouge.net/canon-r5-overheating-hack-solved/
R6 has Ant eye Detection AF
Hi... what about the H.265 codec. The infinite time wasted in transcoding the video files. It is like motion JPEG in 5d Mark IV and may be worse. Save Your Money Guys - Do not buy R5 or R6 if you want to shoot basic good video.
Its got banding in the shadows at highish ISOs!. Be warned everyone. Mines going back. I'm just so dissapointed.
Still too much quirks for that price, too much do this and do that to get an almost $4000 camera to seem normal. Sony is the better system.
Will never return to Canon. The switching thing is a one time deal only. So much money to be lost for those of us with 20k worth of glass just because a manufacturer has a new camera out. There will always be something better and let's face it all of us left canon because of their intentional crippling of their cameras

@@RonaldReidJr www.photonstophotos.net/Charts/PDR.htm
I made a mistake. I was supposed to mean 12 at base ISO.
And from the chart, R5 is still higher than all Sony a7/9 except a7S3. It is not a big deal to fuss on. IMO, only the artificial overheat timer is a critical issue. And that only concern to Videographers. For other kinds of shooters, R5 is a decent choice.
