Review on πŸ“Έ Discover the High-Performance Canon EOS R5 Body, black - Unleash Your Photography Skills by Mateusz Gsiewski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

I took a camera to replace my Sony A7R3 for shooting architecture. I don't shoot videos, so I can't say anything about the video capabilities. At one time, I switched from Canon 5D Mark 3 to Sony because of the high resolution, now that Canon has acquired a 45 megapixel matrix, I decided to go back. In general, I am satisfied with the camera, not counting the shortcomings mentioned above. By the way, in terms of ISO, the camera certainly greatly surpes the Sony A7R3, but at the same time there is no phenomenon, the noise has not gone away. Also, for some reason, I get dark photos all the time on the R5. I already lowered the brightness on the display, and in Picture Style I reduced the exposure and anyway - you shoot, it seems that you got into the exposure, you throw it off on your computer, open it in Lightroom - it's dark. I do not know what it is connected with. If we talk about general impressions - in terms of the philosophy of work, the camera is closer to a DSLR: big, grippy, heavy, quick-firing, in a word, this could be a 5D Mark V, only without a mirror.

Pros
  • - Very fast and accurate autofocus, including tracking, including with EF optics - Finally a good resolution for those who, like me, shoot for advertising and print pictures in large format - Light weight RAV files compared to compeors - When the camera is turned off, the shutter closes and the camera does not dust, this is very important for a mirrorless camera, where the matrix is ​​not covered by anything
Cons
  • I point out all the shortcomings compared to my previous camera - Sony A7r3: - The screen does not fold up / down like on Sony, but to the side. As a result, this "ear" constantly sticks out from the side. I wonder how long it will last with intensive work. - The battery is bad. It may still pump over after a while, but for now this is a disorder. - With the advent of new functions, the menu has become more confusing and, probably, soon, in terms of complexity and the number of abbreviations, it will approach Sony, which has always been a champion in this) - For those who use 6x and 12x magnification, working on manual gles, the return to the original scale does not occur when half-pressing the shutter release. It is necessary to poke a separate on. For me personally, this is inconvenient. I don't see the price as a downside. This is not an expensive camera, it's a cheap) Yes, and the market decides - if a camera is bought for this money, then everything is ok.
