貓吉屋攝影 佳能 eos r5 mark ii全方位評測：阿拉斯加極地野生動物攝影實戰

Canon R5 Mark II 是Canon的最新版本 我們在測試相機的過程中 開始在上一集的視頻中 最近一星期 在很艱難的拍攝環境下 遇到了雨、雪、高風 在暗沉的沙漠之中 遇到了暗沉的沙漠之中 這部相機的效果如何 在暗沉的沙漠之中 我們來談談吧 這部影片是我測試 我如何拍攝 我需要的東西 在我拍攝的環境和工作流程中 我需要的是 穩定、可靠的自動焦點 能夠看到我正在看的東西 透過視覺探測器 能夠瞭解到相機的視野 CAMERA FEELS IN THE HAND IT FEELS REALLY GOOD IT'S A LITTLE BIT THICKER THAN IT'S PREDECESSOR WHICH I LIKE I LIKE A LITTLE BIT BIGGER HEAVIER FEELING CAMERAS IN MY OPINION I JUST FEEL REALLY GOOD IN THE HAND AND ON THIS ONE I'VE ADDED THE BATTERY GROUP IT'S THE BGR-20 IF I GOT THAT WRONG I'LL PUT IT UP HERE AND IT RUNS ABOUT $350 IT'S A LITTLE EXPENSIVE BUT TO ME FOR WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY THIS IS THE FLAGSHIP CAMERA THE R1 IS FOR WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY BE A GOOD CAMERA BUT WE MAY TALK ABOUT THAT IN A FUTURE VIDEO WHY I CHOSE THIS OVER THE R1 BUT I THINK REALLY FOR WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY YOU NEED 30 PLUS MEGAPIXELS TO REALLY HAVE ABILITY TO CROP AND RESIZE YOUR IMAGES AND TO GET MORE DETAIL ANYTHING BELOW THAT TO ME IS JUST A LITTLE LACKING IN TODAY'S TYPE OF CAMERAS AND 45 ON THIS ONE FEELS REALLY GOOD WHEN I GO INTO EDIT THE IMAGES AND LOOK AT THE QUALITY OF THE IMAGES NOW LET'S GET INTO THE REST OF THIS ABOUT THE FEEL AND THE BUTTONS AND EVERYTHING SO AS FAR AS THE BUTTON LAYOUT EVERYTHING I LIKE WHERE IT'S AT KINDA AS FAR AS THIS SHUTTER THE APERTURE YOUR DIALS IN THE BACK WHERE I ASSIGNED THIS ISO EVERYTHING THE AF-ON ALL THE BUTTONS ON HERE ARE PRETTY CLOSE TO IT'S PREDECESSOR IN ALL MY OTHER CANON CAMERAS SO IT'S REALLY INTUITIVE TO HOLD ON TO NOTHING IS DIFFERENT REAL HERE ON THE CAMERA AS FAR AS THE DIFFERENCES ON THE CAMERA IT'S MORE LIKE ACROSS IN THE R7 AND THE R6 MARK II YOU HAVE YOUR ON OFF SWITCH UP HERE AT TOP TURN THE CAMERA ON AND TO LOCK WHAT IS THE LOCK FOR WELL IF YOU HIT THE LOCK YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOUR SETTINGS ON THE CAMERA YOU CAN FOCUS AND YOU CAN HOLD THE SHUTTER BUT YOU CAN'T CHANGE YOUR EXPOSURE TRIANGLE AND ON THE LEFT WE HAVE NOW THE DEDICATED STILLS TO VIDEO SWITCH I LIKE HAVING A STILLS TO VIDEO SWITCH THE LAST PREDECESSOR WE HAD A BUTTON ASSIGNED TO JUMP TO VIDEO AND STILLS THAT WAS FINE TOO BUT I REALLY LIKE A DEDICATED SWITCH ON HERE SO I DON'T BUMP ANYTHING ACCIDENTALLY AND TURN THE VIDEO RECORDING ON OR EVEN VIDEO AND IT SHOULDN'T BE IN STILLS BUT WHAT I DON'T LIKE ABOUT IT THIS IS ONE OF THE FEW GRIPES I HAVE IS IT'S ON THE LEFT THE REASON BEING IS IF I'M HOLDING A BIG LENS UP HERE AND I NEED TO FLIP TO VIDEO I'VE GOT TO TAKE MY HAND IF I'M HAND HOLDING THIS I'VE GOT TO TAKE MY HAND OFF THAT LENS BRACE THIS THING AND THEN FLIP IT TO VIDEO IF IT WAS ON THE RIGHT I COULD JUST USE MY FINGER TO FLIP IT KIND OF LIKE WITH THE R7 OVER TO VIDEO REAL QUICKLY THE REASON IS IF I'M SHOOTING STILLS WITH THE WORK I DO I'M SHOOTING STILLS THE EXACT SAME ANIMAL I WANT TO JUMP TO VIDEO SO I'LL FLIP IT OVER TO VIDEO AND I DON'T LOSE MY SUBJECT I'M STILL LOOKING DOWN THE BARREL OF THE LENS BUT IF I HAVE TO DROP THAT LENS OFF MY EYE PUT IT TO VIDEO BRING IT BACK UP I HAVE TO REACQUIRE THE BIRD AND THAT'S SOMETIMES NOT REAL EASY BUT IT'S JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT SLOWS YOU DOWN IN THE FIELD I WISH IT WAS ON THE RIGHT BUT I DO LIKE IT BEING OVER THERE REALLY REALLY LIKE THAT AS FAR AS THE OTHER STUFF LIKE I SAID IT'S JUST LIKE THE CANON R5 IT'S PREDECESSOR AND ABOUT LIKE THE R6 MKII THE ONE BIG CHANGE THEY DID DO WAS WE NOW HAVE A FULL SIZE WHICH I LOVE HDMI PORT ON THE SIDE I LOVE THAT THE MICRO HDMI'S ARE A PAIN I DO A LOT OF RECORDING OUT TO MY ATOMOS MONITORS THINGS LIKE THAT AND TO HAVE A FULL SIZE IS BETTER ANYWAY BACK TO THE CAMERA SOME MORE LET'S GO TO THE NEXT PART OF THIS CAMERA AND THAT IS WHAT A LOT OF PEOPLE GRIPE ABOUT IS THIS HOT SHOE AND THEY SAY THEY HAVE A HARD PROBLEM I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM YOU PUSH THIS BUTTON YOU KIND OF PULL DOWN THE BACK OF IT AND THEN IT JUST POPS RIGHT OFF I THINK A LOT OF FOLKS ARE TRYING TO JUST PUSH THAT BUTTON DOWN AND THEN PUSH IT AND IT WON'T COME OFF IF YOU PUSH IT DOWN IN THE WHOLE BACK SIDE THIS WHOLE BACK SIDE YOU PUT YOUR FINGER ON THE BUTTON AND PRESS DOWN THE WHOLE PIECE NOT JUST THE BUTTON AND THEN IT WILL JUST SLIDE RIGHT OFF EVERY TIME CAUSE WHAT THAT DOES IS IT PUTS FORCE ON THE TOP AND IT'LL SLIDE OFF THE TOP LIP WHEN YOU'RE JUST PUSHING JUST THE BUTTON YOU'RE NOT GETTING LEVERAGE OF THE TOP OF THIS THING TO PUSH UP BUT I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM GETTING THIS OFF EVEN THE VERY FIRST TIME I THINK I'VE SEEN A LOT OF VIDEOS THEY'VE TALKED ABOUT THAT AND I THINK PATTI PIXELL I MADE A BIG JOKE WITH THE HAMMER IT'S PRETTY FUNNY BUT ANYWAY THAT'S REALLY NICE I LIKE IT ACTUALLY THAT IT'S REALLY HARD TO GET OFF A LITTLE STIFF ON THERE BECAUSE WHEN YOU PUT IT ON IT'S NOT GONNA POP OFF ALL MY OTHER CAMERAS EVERY CAMERA I HAVE TONS OF EXTRA ONE OF THESE LITTLE CAPS FOR THE TOP AND THEY ALWAYS ALWAYS COME OFF ONCE YOU TAKE ONE OFF IT'S JUST INEVITABLE NEXT LET'S TALK ABOUT THE BATTERY THAT'S IN THIS CAMERA IT USES A NEW BATTERY IT'S THE LPE6P BATTERY YES I SAID THAT RIGHT I HAD TO LOOK TO MAKE SURE I GOT THE NUMBER RIGHT AND WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DON'T USE A NEW BATTERY FOR THIS CAMERA WELL IN VIDEO YOU CAN'T SHOOT ANYTHING EXCEPT FOR 30 FRAMES PER SECOND YOU CAN'T SHOOT 24, 120, 240 ANY OF THAT STUFF AND YOU CAN'T RECORD ANY 8K VIDEO AND YOU CAN'T DO RAW RECORDING THERE'S ALSO NO DUAL SHOOTING IN MOVIES AND STILLS WHERE YOU CAN SHOOT MOVIES AND SHOOT JPEGS AT THE SAME TIME YOU CAN ALSO IN STILLS NOT HAVE THE PRE-CONTINUOUS SHOOTING THAT'S A PRE-BURST FOR YOU TO SHUTTER HAS SLOWER FRAMES PER SECOND IN STILLS ALSO AND THE MULTI-FUNCTION FROM SHOE ACCESSORIES MAY NOT WORK AND YOU HAVE NO NETWORK CAPABILITIES SO THAT'S THE COVEY THAT'S WHY YOU WANT TO USE THE NEW BATTERIES INSTEAD OF THE OLD BATTERIES SO JUST MAKE SURE YOU REMEMBER THAT NOW THE BATTERY LIFE IS PRETTY GOOD WHAT I'VE NOTICED ON THIS GUY WHEN I WAS SHOOTING ABOUT HALF THE DAY I WOULD BURN UP ONE BATTERY NOW YOU GOT TO REMEMBER I'M SHOOTING A LOT THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY IT LASTS SEVERAL HOURS 2-3 HOURS WITH ONE BATTERY AND WITH THIS BATTERY GRIP IN A FULL DAY SHOOTING IF I DIDN'T CHARGE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY I STILL HAD A 50-25% OF THE BATTERY AT THE END OF A LONG DAY ON THESE OUT IN THE TUNDRA IN BARROW IT REALLY HAS A REALLY GOOD BATTERY LIFE JUST LIKE THE LAST CAMERA DID WITH THE BATTERY LIFE WITH THE BATTERY GRIP IT WAS REALLY GOOD SO I'D SUGGEST YOU IF YOU'RE SHOOTING A LOT AND SHOOTING ALL DAY GET THE BATTERY GRIP ONTO THE NEW MENUS THAT ARE IN THIS CAMERA AND YES IT DOES HAVE NEW LAYOUT OF MENUS MOST THINGS ARE IN THE SAME PLACE AND THE LAYOUT STILL TO ME IS VERY VERY LOGICAL FOR THE MENUS ON THE CAMERA IT HAS A NEW MENU CAUSE THERE'S A LOT OF NEW FEATURES PRE-CAPTURE,VIDEO MODES THE WAY THE CODEX CHANGED THE WAY SOME OF THE THINGS WORK ON YOUR AUTO-FOCUS AREAS ARE DIFFERENT TOO AND IT HAS AN EXTRA LITTLE MENU ITEM AT THE TOP AND IT'S GOOD THE WAY THEY BROKE IT OUT I LIKE IT BUT THE MENUS ARE VERY SENSIBLE THEY'RE NOT REALLY HARD TO FIGURE OUT WHEN YOU LOOK THROUGH THEM SO I DIDN'T THINK THE NEW MENUS WERE MUCH OF A PROBLEM THEY'RE STILL REALLY LOGICAL AND I STILL FOUND A WAY I RELEASED THE FIRST VIDEO ON THE SETUP WAS MY INITIAL SETUP AND I HAVE FOUND SOME THINGS I'VE CHANGED DIFFERENTLY IN THE CAMERA AND ALSO SOON I'LL HAVE A VIDEO CENTRIC SETUP ON THIS THING SO LOOK FOR THOSE TWO VIDEOS YOU'RE GONNA HAVE A VIDEO THAT'S GOING TO BE VIDEO CENTRIC ON HOW TO DO WILDLIFE WITH VIDEO HOW I USE IT NOT THE DEFINITIVE WAY THE ONLY WAY IT'S JUST THE WAY I DO IT AND THEN I'LL HAVE A REVISED FIELD TESTED CAMERA SETUP VIDEO FOR STILLS AND VIDEO AND ALL INCLUSIVE ONE SOON AFTER THAT PROBABLY IN A COUPLE TWO TO THREE WEEKS PROBABLY THAT'LL BE OUT BUT THE MAIN TAKEAWAY IS THE MENUS ARE REALLY EASY TO NAVIGATE AND SENSIBLE FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE USED CANON CAMERAS BEFORE OK ON TO THE LCD THE LCD ON THIS CAMERA IS BRIGHT IT IS NICE NOTHING REALLY NEW HERE IT'S 3.2 INCH 2.1 MILLION DOT HAS A FLOPPY SCREEN WHICH WE ALL LOVE LIKE IT'S BEEN ON THE CANON CAMERAS FOREVER NOTHING REALLY NEW HERE NOW THE EVF THAT'S WHERE WE'RE CHANGING QUITE A BIT NOW ON PAPER IT'S THE EXACT SAME THING IT'S A HALF INCH 5.76 MILLION DOT 120 MHz OLED SCREEN BUT WHAT I'VE NOTICED IS AND IF YOU SEE THE PICTURES THAT THE OPENING THE EYE PIECE ON THIS IS MUCH LARGER AND IT'S VERY VERY WELCOME WHY IS THAT VERY WELCOME ESPECIALLY LIKE ME TO GET DOWN LOW A LOT WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO LOOK THROUGH THIS THING AT A WEIRD ANGLE IT'S EASIER TO SEE INTO THAT EVF FROM THOSE ANGLES THAN IT WOULD IF YOU HAD A SMALLER VIEW PIECE HERE SO THAT'S VERY VERY WELCOME THE NEXT THING ABOUT THIS VIEW PIECE IS EVF AND IT'S SOMETHING THAT DON REALLY NOTICED TOO WHEN HE WAS USING IT JUMPING FROM HIS R7 OR WE'RE TESTING THE R5 THAT VIDEO IS COMING OUT SOON THE R5 VERSUS THIS CAMERA WHICH ONE SHOULD YOU BUY SHOULD YOU UPGRADE THOSE TYPE THINGS AND THE COMPARISONS WAS THIS WAS VERY VERY BRIGHT AND VIVID EYE PIECE THE SPECS AND EVERYTHING ARE EXACTLY THE SAME I THINK THE BACKSIDE LIMITED SENSOR AND THOSE THINGS PLUS SOME OTHER MAGIC THEY'VE DONE WITH OPENING THAT EYE PIECE MORE MADE THIS WHERE IT'S REALLY REALLY GOOD AND EASY TO SEE YOUR SUBJECT ALL THE DETAIL OF YOUR SUBJECT AND ALL THAT STUFF IT'S JUST AMAZING EVEN AT DEFAULT LEVELS AND THIS IS ONE COMPARISON BECAUSE THE R5 I HAD THE R5 CORRECT ALL THE WAY UP TO 5 THIS ONE WAS ON DEFAULT LEVELS AND THIS WAS STILL CLEAR AND BRIGHTER THAN THE R5 IN THE VIEWFINDER WHICH MADE SHOOTING INCREDIBLY INCREDIBLY NICE THE CLARITY AND BRIGHTNESS IN THIS THAT'S THE ONE THING ABOUT THIS CAMERA THAT REALLY REALLY SHOCKED ME AND I DIDN'T REALLY THINK ABOUT IT AT FIRST BUT AS I KEPT USING IT MORE AND MORE THAT'S THE ONE THING I REALLY LOVED ABOUT THIS CAUSE IT MADE THAT SHOOTING EXPERIENCE WHICH IS ALL THE POINT WE'RE BEHIND THIS CAMERA ALL DAY LONG THAT EVF MADE THE SHOOTING EXPERIENCE FOR ME A LOT LOT BETTER I DIDN'T REALLY THINK ABOUT THAT IN THE FIRST DAY I WAS SHOOTING I WAS JUST PLAYING WITH THE CONTROLS AND STUFF BUT AS I SHOT IT MORE AND MORE DAYS THAT'S THE ONE THING I LIKED IS I COULD SEE WHAT I'M HITTING I COULD SEE MY EXPOSURE I COULD SEE THE DETAILS IN THE BIRD LIKE SAINT HILL CRANES I COULD SEE THE GREY AND THE BROWN AND THE WINGS EVEN WHEN THEY'RE FLYING THAT WAS REALLY NICE INSTEAD OF JUST KIND OF A GREY BIRD I'M SEEING ALL THE DETAIL REALLY NICE NEXT THING ABOUT THE EVF AND THE CONTROLS AND SOMETHING NEW ON THIS CAMERA IS THE EYE CONTROL I DID NOT REVIEW THE EYE CONTROL HAVEN'T EVEN TURN IT ON TO USE IT I TESTED A BIT ON THE R3 AND IN USE I JUST FOUND THERE'S NOTHING THAT THE WAY I SHOOT THAT I WOULD USE THE EYE CONTROL FOR IT JUST DIDN'T REALLY WORK IN MY WORKFLOW AND I TESTED QUITE A LOT WITH THE R3 CAUSE I REALLY TOYED REALLY WANTED THE R3 I LOVE THE CONTROLS THE FEEL SNAPPINESS EVERYTHING ABOUT THE R3 AND THAT'S WHAT THIS CAMERA DELIVERS SO FAR IT FEELS A LOT LIKE THE R3 TO ME AS FAR AS IT'S SNAPPINESS IT'S FORM IN THE HAND IT'S NOT AS SMOOTH AS CAUSE IT HAS A GRIP ON HERE IT'S NOT AS SMOOTH IT'S REALLY NICE AND IT'S... BUT AS FAR AS THE SNAPPINESS THE... ALL THOSE TYPE THINGS ARE REALLY GOOD BUT I JUST DIDN'T LIKE THE EYE CONTROL AND IT'S JUST NOT SOMETHING I'M GONNA REVIEW RIGHT NOW MAYBE IN THE FUTURE I'LL REVIEW IT BUT FOR RIGHT NOW WE'RE NOT TOUCHING EYE CONTROL IT'S JUST NOT SOMETHING THAT'S GOING IN MY WORKFLOW CURRENTLY MAYBE IN THE FUTURE BUT I REALLY DOUBT IT GUYS BUT IF YOU GUYS WANT TO USE YOUR EYE CONTROL LET ME KNOW HOW IT WORKS OUT FOR YOU BUT FOR ME FOR WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY IT'S JUST NOT SOMETHING I'M GONNA USE CAUSE REMEMBER I'M JUST USING THIS IN MY TESTING IN MY WORKFLOW IN MY SHOOTING ENVIRONMENTS WHAT I DO NOW THE BIGGIE LET'S GET INTO THE REALLY BIG ONE ON THIS THAT BACK SIDE ELIMINATED STACK SENSOR IT'S GOT A READOUT SPEED AT 6.3 MILLISECONDS WHAT DOES THAT MEAN WELL THAT MEANS NO ROLLING SHUT VIRTUALLY NO ROLLING SHUT THERE'S STILL A TOUCH IF YOU REALLY REALLY PUSH REALLY HARD WITH THE SOMETHING REALLY ROUND MOVING AND TAKING COMPRESSION THINGS LIKE THAT BUT FOR ME WHEN I TEST THIS GUY IN FLAT SHOTS WHIP PAN THIS GUY WITH THE PROPER SHUTTER SPEED THAT IS CAUSE WITHOUT THE PROPER SHUTTER SPEED YOU'RE GONNA GET MOTION BLUR BUT YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET BOWING AND I WHIP PAN THIS GUY HARD JUST TO TEST IT WITH BIRDS AND FLIGHT AND THINGS LIKE THAT I DIDN'T SEE ANY BEND IN TREES I DIDN'T SEE ANY BEND IN POLES IF THEY WERE IN THE WAY ANYTHING STRAIGHT LINE I GOT NO BOWING GOT NO BOWING AT ALL I SAW NO ODD WING MOVEMENTS WITH THIS GUY AT 6.3 MILLISECONDS NO WARPING IN THE IMAGES I LOOK THROUGH IMAGES LIKE YOU CAN WITH THE R7 THERE'S SOME SLOWER MIRRORLESS CAMERAS YOU'LL KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT YOU'RE LIKE A LOG A BIRD SITTING ON THE BIRD AND ONE IT'S LOOKING NORMAL THE NEXT ONE IS JUST A LITTLE BIT TALLER CAUSE THE SCENE WARPED A LITTLE BIT BUT NONE OF THAT SAW NONE OF THAT HERE WHATSOEVER SO THAT READOUT SPEED OF THE SENSOR IS GREAT AND BY HAVING THAT FAST READOUT SPEED THIS CAMERA CAN DELIVER SOME FASTER FRAMES PER SECOND AND ITEMS LIKE THAT AND THIS GUY WILL SHOOT UP TO 30 FRAMES PER SECOND IN FULL RAW NOW 30 FRAMES PER SECOND IT IS A LOT SOMETIMES BUT I THINK REALLY 20 PLUS IS THAT SWEET SPOT AND I SHOT THIS GUY EXPRESSLY IN 30 FRAMES PER SECOND WHILE TESTING THIS JUST TO SEE WHAT THAT SHOOTING WORKFLOW IS LIKE AT 30 FRAMES PER SECOND WHAT THAT BUFFER IS AND IF THERE'S ANY NEGATIVES TO SHOOT IN 30 FRAMES PER SECOND WELL FIRST OF ALL THE NEGATIVE IS IF YOU'RE SHOOTING A SWAN OR SOMETHING THAT'S NOT MOVING A LOT OF MOVES 30 FRAMES PER SECOND IS A BIT MUCH SO IN THOSE INSTANCES I'LL BE SHOOTING 20 FRAMES PER SECOND SO IN MY SHOOTING LIFE AS I GO FORWARD AFTER TESTING THIS A LOT I'M PROBABLY GONNA SET THIS TO 20 FRAMES PER SECOND AND LEAVE IT THERE BECAUSE THAT'S REALLY FUN THAT SWEET SPOT LIKE I SAID EARLIER BUT THERE'S TIMES WHEN I KNOW I'M GONNA HAVE A LOT OF BIRDS FLYING IN FLIGHT SHOTS OR I'M GONNA HAVE MAYBE A FOX HUNTING THINGS IS GONNA REQUIRE A LOT MORE ACTION I'LL MOVE IT BACK TO 30 FRAMES PER SECOND AND THAT IS REALLY NICE TO HAVE THOSE TWO OPTIONS NOW THE NEXT FEATURE WE TALK ABOUT FRAMES PER SECOND IS THE PRE-CONTINUOUS SHOOTING THIS ONE'S THE BEST ONE TO ME BESIDES THAT EVF AND THAT STAG SENSOR THIS PRE-CONTINUOUS SHOOTING IS ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS THAT I LOVE THIS CAMERA I LOVE PRE-CONTINUOUS SHOOTING PRE-SHUTTER SHOOTING THAT IS BECAUSE YOU CAN GET THOSE THINGS THAT YOU WOULD'VE MISSED BEFORE A PIKE A BARKING AND YOU'RE TRYING TO TIME IT RIGHT WHEN YOU SEE HIS BARK EXTREMELY EXTREMELY HARD YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY'RE GONNA DO IT IT JUST HAPPENS OUT OF NOWHERE BY HAVING THAT PRE-SHOOTING WHICH WHAT IS PRE-CONTINUOUS SHOOTING LET'S EXPLAIN THAT FIRST IT BASICALLY IF YOU'RE HOLDING THE SHUTTER HALFWAY DOWN IT'S RECORDING A ROLLING RECORDING OF HALF SECOND BEFORE YOU HIT THE SHUTTER SO LET'S SAY THAT PIKE IS BARKING I SEE HIM BARK I HIT THE SHUTTER BUT I MISSED IT IT WAS JUST A HAIR BEFORE I HIT IT AS LONG AS IT WAS IN HALF SECOND BEFORE I HIT THE SHUTTER BUTTON I SHOULD CAPTURE THAT BARK AND THAT'S WHAT IT DOES SO BIRDS TAKING OFF ON A TREE PIKE BARKING ALL THOSE KIND OF THINGS THAT'S WHAT IT DOES I KICKED MY CAMERA SO HOPE THAT DIDN'T MESS UP THE SHOT TOO MUCH THERE FOR A SECOND BUT THAT'S WHAT PRE-CONTINUOUS SHOOTING IS AND IT'S FANTASTIC AND IT'S PART OF THE CAMERA ROLL NOW SO I LEFT THAT ON ALL THE TIME SO AT 30 FRAMES PER SECOND THAT MEANS I WAS GETTING 15 FRAMES PER SECOND BEFORE I HIT THE SHUTTER WHAT DOES THAT ALSO MEAN WELL THAT MEANS YOU'RE FILLING THAT CARD UP A LOT MORE SO EVEN IF I TOOK 10 SHOTS I GOT 25 SHOTS CAUSE OF THAT 15 PRIOR BUT THAT RIGHT THERE IS ONE OF THE BEST FEATURES FOR THIS CAMERA FOR ME FOR WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHY BESIDES THAT EVF AND THAT CENSOR SPEED AT 6.3 SECONDS JUST INCREDIBLE I LOVE IT LOVE HAVING IT THERE WAS A LOT OF SHOTS I WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN IF I HADN'T HAD THAT SHOOTING VERY VERY NICE NOW ONE THING TO NOTE ABOUT THE PRE-CONTINUED SHOOTING IS IT ONLY SHOOTS IN ECS ELECTRONIC SHUTTER ONLY SO REMEMBER THAT IT'S NOT GONNA BE SHOOTING MECHANICAL FIRST CURTAIN EVEN IF YOU HAVE IT SET TO THAT IT'S GONNA SHOOT IN ECS ONLY AND HOW YOU KNOW THAT PRE-CONTINUED IS WORKING WHEN YOU HALF PRESS THAT SHUTTER WHAT YOU NOTICE IN THE TOP LEFT YOU'LL SEE A LITTLE PRE CIRCLE POPPING SO WHEN YOU'RE HITTING THAT HALFWAY DOWN YOU'LL SEE THAT PRE IF YOU DON'T WANT THE PRE AND YOU'VE GOT IT SET JUST DON'T HALF PRESS THAT GUY JUST WHEN YOU SEE IT THEN HIT YOUR SHUTTER INSTEAD OF HITTING HALFWAY DOWN THEN HITTING YOUR SHUTTER AND YOU WON'T GET THAT HALF SECOND CAUSE YOU DIDN'T HOLD IT DOWN LONG ENOUGH NOW WITH 30 FRAMES PER SECOND SELECTED AND PRE-CONTINUED SHOOTING ON YOU'RE GONNA HAVE A LOT OF IMAGE LIKE I SAID EARLIER SO YOU'RE GONNA HAVE A LOT MORE CULLING YES THAT IS A NEGATIVE TO THAT SO THERE'S ALWAYS PROS AND CONS TO EVERYTHING AND A DAY ON THE FIELD ESPECIALLY WHEN I WAS OUT IN BARROW I WAS SHOOTING 6 TO 15 THOUSAND SHOTS EASILY IN A DAY AND A COUPLE OF TIMES I HAD 20 THOUSAND SO IT IS A LOT OF THINGS TO GO THROUGH A LOT MORE CULLING BUT BEING ABLE TO GET THAT SHOT THAT YOU WOULD HAVE NOT GOTTEN BEFORE LIKE SOME OF THESE BLAST OFF SHOTS OR FLY OFF SHOTS OR LANDING SHOTS AND THINGS WHEN I WOULD SEE IT HIT THAT BUTTON I WAS GETTING MORE OF THE ACTION THAN I WOULD HAVE MISSED BEFORE SO AGAIN I'VE SAID IT SEVERAL TIMES PRETTY CONTINUOUS JUST AWESOME LET'S MOVE ON TO WEATHER SEALING NOW WHEN I TOOK THIS TO BARROW WE HAD SNOW WE HAD RAIN WE HAD FOG WE HAD SNOW SAND TUNDERMUCK MUD WATER EVERYTHING ONE THING I DIDN'T DO ON PURPOSE IS I DID NOT PUT THIS IN A RAINCOAT DIDN'T DO IT I WANTED TO WEATHER TEST THIS I KNOW STUPID AGAIN BUT I WANTED TO SEE HOW THIS THING HELD UP TO LET YOU GUYS KNOW AND LET MYSELF KNOW THE PREDECESSOR CAMERA OF THIS GUY HELD UP REALLY WELL IN THE RAIN AND ALL THOSE TYPE THINGS AND THIS ONE DID FANTASTIC TOO IT WAS IN SOME EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER TOO IT WAS BELOW 30 DEGREES MOST DAYS UP THERE WE HAD WIND BLOWING 40 DEGREES COMING OFF THE OCEAN SO IT FELT LIKE IT THE WIND CHILL WAS DOWN IN SINGLE DIGITS EASILY AT TIMES IT WAS REALLY REALLY COLD AND HOW DID IT HOLD UP EXTREMELY EXTREMELY WELL HAD NO ISSUES EXCEPT FOR A LITTLE BIT OF SAND SO WHEN I WAS OUT SHOOTING I GOT A TOUCH A BIT OF SAND IN THIS DIAL HERE WHEN I WOULD PULL IT DOWN RUN IT AND WE'VE ALL HAD THAT HAPPEN ON THESE DIALS IN CANDID CAMERAS YOU HEAR A LITTLE BIT OF GRIT THERE WAS A PIECE OF SAND UNDER THERE BUT AFTER ROLLING THAT AROUND QUITE A BIT IN THE CAR AFTER I NOTICED IT THAT PIECE OF SAND WORKED ITS WAY OUT AND NOT A PROBLEM THE OTHER THING THAT HAPPENED WAS I HAD A LITTLE BIT OF SAND GET STUCK IN THE SHUTTER BUTTON AND WHAT I NOTICED WHEN I WAS LOOKING THROUGH THE EYE PIECE I WASN'T HOLDING THE SHUTTER I NOTICED THE PRE-SHOOTING WAS DOWN THAT'S WHY I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THERE SO I WAS PARTIALLY HOLDING THE SHUTTER DOWN BUT NOT ALL THE WAY LUCKILY SO AGAIN HOW DID I FIX THAT TURNED THE CAMERA OFF AND JUST KEPT WORKING JIGGLING THAT SHUTTER BUTTON PUSHING IT BACK AND FORTH ON AND OFF AND THAT PIECE OF SAND WORKED ITS WAY OUT AND I WAS BACK TO SHOOTING BUT OTHER THAN THAT THE WEATHER SEAL IN THIS GUY HELD OUT GREAT SO SAND AND DIRT GETTING IN YOUR CAMERA IS ALWAYS GONNA BE A PROBLEM THESE BUTTONS IT'S JUST NEVER GONNA GO AWAY CAUSE THERE'S JUST ENOUGH OF A GAP FOR A PIECE TO GET IN THERE BUT JUST AS YOU GET DONE SHOOTING IN THOSE ENVIRONMENTS WIPE YOUR CAMERA DOWN LOOK THROUGH IT IT LOOKS GOOD BUT AS FAR AS WEATHER SEALING THIS GUY IS FANTASTIC BUFFER PERFORMANCE LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT REAL QUICK SO THE BUFFER ON THIS CAMERA HOW DID IT DO CAUSE I WAS A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT 30 FRAMES PER SECOND WITH 45 MEGA PIXELS WITH THAT I WAS CURIOUS HOW THEY DID THE BUFFER IN THIS GUY AND I DID RECORD SOME TIMES WITH THIS AND JUST TO LET YOU KNOW WITH FEEL-WISE WHEN I FIRST RATTLED OFF THAT SHUTTER WHEN I HAD A BIRD COME IN AND LANDING OR FLYING ACROSS THE SKY ON THE VERY FIRST DAY OF SHOOTING IT I SMACKED THAT BUFFER REALLY QUICK IT KINDA SURPRISED ME AND I SHOT AGAIN I SHOT THIS GUY MOSTLY IN 30 FRAMES PER SECOND OUT IN THE FIELD AND I SHOT IN RAW FIRST AND I MOVED TO C RAW LATER TO SEE IF THAT WOULD HELP AND IT DID HELP I WAS GETTING MORE TIME BEHIND THE SHUTTER AS IT'S GOING BUT HOW DID THE SHOTS GO AND HOW LONG DID IT RUN LET'S TALK ABOUT THOSE NUMBERS REAL QUICK SO IN RAW WHAT I GOT IN 30 FRAMES PER SECOND IN FULL RAW I WOULD GET 113 SHOTS OFF AND IT TOOK ABOUT 3 TO ALMOST 3 AND A HALF SECONDS TO HIT THAT BUFFER WHERE BASICALLY THE CAMERA STOPS TAKING PICTURES AND THEN IT HAS TO CLEAR THE BUFFER SO IT TOOK ABOUT 2 SECONDS TO CLEAR THAT BUFFER WHERE YOU SEE BUSY AND AFTER THAT IT TOOK A TOTAL OF 3 MORE SECONDS TO WRITE THOSE IN THE CARD SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN WELL WHEN YOU HIT THAT BUFFER WHEN IT GOES CLUNK, STOPS THE NEXT TIME YOU CAN HIT YOUR IMAGES TO GET MORE IMAGES OR FLIP TO VIDEO IS GOING TO BE 2 SECONDS AFTER THAT SO ONE OF THE THINGS YOU GOT TO NOTE TOO ABOUT THIS CAMERA IF YOU GO TO TURN IT OFF OR TRY TO GO TO VIDEO AFTER SHOOTING A BURST THEN YOU HIT THE BUFFER OR SHOOT A GOOD BURST YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT ABOUT 1 TO 2 SECONDS IN RAW BEFORE YOU CAN START SHOOTING VIDEO OR SHOOTING MORE STILLS OR THE CAMERA TO GO OFF SO THAT'S WHY YOU GET THAT BUSY IN THERE AND AT 20 FRAMES PER SECOND IN RAW WHAT I GOT WAS 122 SHOTS NOT THAT MANY MORE BUT I COULD SHOOT FOR 4.5 SECONDS VERSUS 3 SECONDS SO I COULD SHOOT LONGER AND TO CLEAR THAT BUFFER IT TOOK JUST A LITTLE LESS THAN 2 SECONDS AND IT TOTALLY CLEARED OFF RIGHT AT THE CARD WAS 5 SECONDS SO TO GO TO VIDEO OR TO SHOOT MORE IT WAS ABOUT 1.5 TO 2 SECONDS FOR IT TO CLEAR THAT BUFFER FOR THE BUSY SIGNAL TO GO AWAY NOW WHEN I MOVED INTO C RAW THIS IS WHAT I REALLY WANTED TO KNOW WHEN I WAS SHOOTING 30 FRAMES PER SECOND AND IT DID HELP ME SO IN C RAW AT 30 FRAMES PER SECOND I WAS GETTING 225 SHOTS ALMOST DOUBLE AND IT WAS LASTING FOR 5 SECONDS IN C RAW WHEN I WAS SHOOTING 30 FRAMES PER SECOND IT TOOK 1 SECOND TO CLEAR THAT BUSY REALLY NICE AND IT TOOK 5 SECONDS FOR IT TO WRITE TO THE CARD SO THAT LITTLE STUTTER WAS ABOUT 1 SECOND TO 2 SECONDS WHEN YOU GOT MORE AND MORE STUTTERS IF YOU JUST LEFT THAT HAMMER DOWN THE WHOLE TIME BUT IT WAS 1 SECOND TO CLEAR THAT BUFFER 225 SHOTS WHEN I MOVED TO 20 FRAMES PER SECOND I WAS ONLY GETTING 24 SHOTS BUT I WAS HOLDING THAT BUTTON DOWN FOR 8 SECONDS AND IT TOOK 2.5 SECONDS FOR IT TO CLEAR THE BUFFER THE BUSY SIGNAL AND 8 SECONDS COMPLETELY TO WRITE TO THE CARD SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN WELL IF YOU HAVE A BIRD LIKE A SWAN THAT TAKES A LONG TIME TO GET OFF THE GROUND YOU PROBABLY WANT TO BE SHOOTING IN 20 FRAMES PER SECOND SEA RAW GIVES YOU 8 SECONDS CAUSE THOSE GUYS TAKE 75 YARDS SOMETIMES TO GET UP SO IT TAKES A LONG TIME FOR THEM BECAUSE WHAT HAPPENS INVARIABLY YOU FEATHER YOUR BUFFER THAT'S A SECOND THAT'S THE PART YOU REALLY WANT TO GET BUT FOR THE MOST PART I LEFT IT IN SEA RAW 30 FRAMES PER SECOND SO 225 SHOTS IN 5 SECONDS WORKED REALLY GOOD FOR ME I STILL SLAPPED THAT BUFFER WHEN I HAD LIKE JAEGERS FLYING THROUGH THE SKY YOU KNOW TRY TO STAY WITH THEM WHEN I HAD THEM HEAD ON THEY WOULD CURVE IN THAT WIND AND DO STUFF AND 5 SECONDS SOMETIMES WASN'T ENOUGH YOU HAVE TO GET OFF GET BACK ON THE SHUTTER BUT THAT'S WHAT THE NUMBERS ARE SO AGAIN 30 FRAMES PER SECOND 113 FRAMES 20 FRAMES PER SECOND RAW 122 FRAMES IN SEA RAW 225 AND 240 FOR 30 AND 20 YOU'RE NOT GETTING THAT MANY MORE SHOTS BUT WHAT YOU'RE GETTING IS MORE TIME ON THE SHUTTER WHICH IS REALLY NICE FOR NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT ISO AND LOW LIGHT PERFORMANCE AND JUST SO YOU KNOW WE'RE GONNA HAVE A SEPARATE VIDEO ON ITS OWN THAT WILL JUST COVER THIS TO SHOW YOU EXAMPLES AND MORE IN DEPTH ON LOW LIGHT AND THAT TYPE STUFF AND EVERYTHING I SHOT WITH THIS CAMERA WAS IN LOW TO LOWER LIGHT TO NO LIGHT WE HAD TWO DAYS IN THE ANCHORS WHERE WE HAD SEMI-OK LIGHT THAT WAS THE LAST VIDEO WE SAW AND ANOTHER DAY WE HAD GREEBS AND SOME SANDAL CRANE STUFF LIKE THAT THE REST OF THE TIME IT'S SEVERE OVERCAST RAINING, FOG, BLOWING RAIN, BLOWING SNOW AT TIMES AND BARROW IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS DUSK NOW THE RESULT PRETTY GOOD AS EXPECTED SHOOTING AT 10,000 ISO WAS AGAIN NO ISSUE AND WE DON'T HAVE DXO WORKING CURRENTLY AND THE IMAGES LOOK PRETTY GOOD NOW REMEMBER THAT AND ONCE WE GET DXO WORKING FOR THE R5 MK2 THEN WE'LL REVISIT THE LOW LIGHT PERFORMANCE BUT EVEN WITHOUT IT I WAS PRETTY HAPPY WITH IT AND WHY I'M SAYING NO DXO AND WHEN I... THESE IMAGES YOU SEE THAT YOU'LL SEE THROUGHOUT THIS VIDEO I DID NOT APPLY ANY LIGHT ROOM NOISE REDUCTION OR ANY SHARPNESS DIDN'T RUN IT THROUGH TOPASS OR ANYTHING JUST ADDED WHAT I COULD IN LIGHT ROOM WITHOUT DOING NOISE REDUCTION AND SHARPNESS TO SHOW YOU KIND OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IF YOU HAD TO EDIT YOUR IMAGES BUT OVERALL I WAS FAIRLY HAPPY WITH IT LOOKING AT IT CAUSE I WAS REALLY WORRIED ABOUT WHAT THAT LOW LIGHT WAS GONNA BE LIKE WITHOUT THOSE TOOLS CAUSE WITH THE LAST CAMERA I WAS VERY... WASN'T UNHAPPY WITH IT BUT I DEFINITELY HAD TO RUN IT THROUGH DXO THESE NEED TO BE RUN THROUGH DXO TOO IT HELPS IMAGES A LOT MORE TO GET THE COLOR BACK THE SHARPNESS RIGHT AND THE NOISE REDUCTION BUT AS IT SITS RIGHT NOW THE LOW LIGHT FOR ME LOOKS PRETTY GOOD CAUSE THAT'S ALL I SHOT IN IS LOW LIGHT JUST LOW LOW CRAPPY LIGHT BUT THE IMAGES TO ME CAME OUT PRETTY GOOD NEXT IMAGE STABILIZATION IMAGE STABILIZATION IN STILLS WAS VERY VERY GOOD I COULD SHOOT SOME EXTREMELY LOW SHUTTER SPEEDS HANDHELD AND NOT GET TOO MUCH MOTION BLUR THE IMAGE STABILIZATION THAT CANNON COACH IS 8.5 STOPS WITH THE RIGHT LENSES AND I THINK YOU GOT THAT AND IN VIDEO JUST WOW YOU CAN REALLY SEE IT LOCK IN WHEN YOU'RE SETTING UP YOUR SHOT BEFORE YOU HIT THE SHUTTER BUTTON OR THE RECORD BUTTON TO START RECORDING YOU COULD SEE THE MOVEMENT AND SHAKE BUT ONCE YOU HIT THAT RECORD BUTTON THAT THING JUST LOCKED IN AND STUCK AND IT WAS REALLY GOOD AND THE FOCUS STAYED ON THAT BIRD ALSO WHEN WE GET TO AUTO FOCUS TALK ABOUT THAT BUT WHEN THAT IIS KICKED INTO VIDEO IT WAS NICE BECAUSE I ON THIS TRIP IN BARROW I DIDN'T TAKE A TRIPOD GROUND SKIMMER GIMBALS NOTHING I HAD TO HANDHOLD THAT OR FIND SOMETHING TO REST THE CAMERA ON WHEN I'M TRYING TO FILM BIRDS IN FLY WITH THAT EF 5 11 POUND BODY LENS ACTUALLY ALMOST 12 POUNDS THAT WAS TOUGH TO HANDHOLD AND THAT IMAGE STABILIZATION REALLY HELPED TO LOCK THAT IN JUST GREAT GREAT WORK BY KID ON THE IMAGE STABILIZATION ON THIS NEW CAMERA THE NEXT THING I KNOW THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THIS CAMERA AND THAT'S THE AUTO FOCUS THAT'S WHAT A LOT OF PEOPLE CAME HERE TO SEE HOW GOOD IS THE AUTO FOCUS ON THIS GUY BIRDS AND ANIMALS WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE WITH THIS NEW SENSOR AND THIS NEW DUAL PROCESSOR TYPE THING WE GOT GOING ON WELL, FROM THE VERY FIRST BIRD I SHOT OUT OF FOCUS WHEN I HIT THE AF ON FOR THE ANIMAL EYE DETECT THE FIRST THING I NOTICED WAS THAT WAS FAST THE JUMP TO SUBJECT ON THIS GUY IS IMPRESSIVE WHEN YOU GET THAT BUTTON OUT OF FOCUS JUMP INTO THAT EYE REAL REALLY FAST IT'S THE ONE THING THAT DON MENTIONED IS HE'S TESTING THIS CAMERA OUT ALONG WITH THE R5 CAUSE HE'S THINKING ABOUT MAYBE GETTING AN R5 SINCE THE R5 MARK II CAME OUT JUST CAUSE HE MAY BE ABLE TO FIND SOME DEALS IN R5 BUT THAT'S THE ONE COMPARISON HE MADE ON THAT WAS THIS OUT OF FOCUS COMPARED TO HIS R7 R5 WAS REALLY REALLY SNAPPY WE'LL HAVE THAT COMPARISON AND SHOWING YOU WHAT THAT COMPARISON LOOKS LIKE AS FAR AS HOW QUICK THEY ACQUIRE VERY VERY SOON AND THE STICKINESS ON THIS GUY IS VERY VERY GOOD ALSO IT REALLY HUNG ON THE SUBJECTS WHEN THEY'RE MOVING THROUGH THEIR FRAME WHEN THEY WENT THROUGH SOME BUSY ENVIRONMENTS OR BEHIND THINGS IT TRACKED THEM REALLY WELL TO MAKE IT LESS OR MORE STICKY LEAVING IT AUTO TO ME WORKED REALLY REALLY GOOD I'VE SEEN SOME PEOPLE SAY THAT IT CAN CHANGE THEIR TRACKING SITUATIONS I DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THAT IN THIS GUY AND I SHOT BIRDS AGAINST CRAZY BACKGROUNDS THROUGH THINGS AND I REALLY DIDN'T HAVE ANY ISSUES GRABBING THAT BIRD OF COURSE IF YOU'RE SHOOTING IN SOME TRICKY WHERE YOU'RE TRYING TO GET YOUR INITIAL FOCUS BEHIND SOME TWIGS YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO USE SINGLE POINT TO GET BY THAT'S FOR ALL ALL AUTO FOCUS BUT ONCE IT LOCKED I DIDN'T HAVE MUCH OF A PROBLEM WITH THAT AND FOR BIRDS IN FLIGHT THE RESULT WAS THE SAME IT GRABBED QUICKLY IT HUNG ON VERY WELL WE SHOT SOME SAND EEL CRANES THAT FLEW REALLY LOW AGAINST TREES WHERE NORMALLY THE AUTO FOCUS GETS LOST IN A LOT OF MY CAMERAS AND THIS GUY JUST HUNG ON TO THEM THE WHOLE TIME IT WAS REALLY REALLY NICE AGAIN YOU GOT TO GET THE RIGHT CONTRAST TO THE YOU KNOW BETWEEN THE ANIMAL IN THE BACKGROUND BUT I DIDN'T HAVE A LOT OF CONTRAST BUT IT REALLY HUNG ON WELL AS IT WENT THROUGH THAT TYPE OF BACKGROUND WHICH IS A GOOD TEST WITH THIS CAMERA WE EVEN SHOT SOME SMALL BIRDS ACROSS THE TUNDRA IN BAD LIGHT WITH LOTS OF DISTRACTIONS ACTUALLY ONE WAS IN A CEMETERY AND IT NAILED FOCUS LIKE YOU CAN SEE THIS BUNTING IS JUST GOING BACK THERE IT'S GOING AWAY FROM ME AND IT'S JUST TRACKING THAT BUNTING BUNTINGS AREN'T THAT BIG THEY'RE LITTLE BITTY LITTLE BITTY BIRDS SNOW BUNTIES BUT IT TRACKED THAT BIRD OF COURSE IT'S ALL BUNT SHOTS THE WHOLE WAY BUT IT WAS JUST NICE TO SEE IT TRACK AND HELD ONTO THAT LITTLE BIRD AS IT'S FLYING AWAY OVERALL I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE AUTOFOCUS AND STILLS FOR THIS GUY NOW HIT RATE SO IT'S ALL GOOD AND DANDY THAT THE AUTOFOCUS IN THE CAMERA SET IT GOT TO IT BUT WHEN YOU GET INTO THE IMAGES YOU'RE GONNA LOOK AT THE IMAGES THAT IN THAT FOCUS RANGE WHAT WAS THE HIT RATE LIKE WELL THIS REALLY SURPRISED ME IT WAS REALLY REALLY GOOD THINK THE FIRST ONE IS GONNA BE AT 255 FRAMES I'VE JUST GOT IT SPED UP AND CLICK THROUGH THE FRAMES THIS IS AN EAGLE IN HORRIBLE HORRIBLE LIGHT LAND OUT IN THE MUCK SHOOTING ACROSS THE WATER WHICH IS A TRICKY SITUATION IT'S A BIGGER BIRD YES THE IMMATURE BALD EAGLE THAT THIS ONE IS THE EYE ON THE EAGLE IS DARKER IT'S NOT LIKE WITH THE ADULT EAGLE WHERE THE EYE IS WHITE WHERE IT REALLY IS EASY FOR IT TO FIND IT'S REALLY MORE MUTED TO THE FACE OF THE BIRD AS YOU CAN SEE YOU DON'T REALLY SEE IT BUT IT LOCKED THE EYE IT LOCKED THAT BIRD WHEN THE BIRD WOULD JUMP THE FOCUS WOULD STAY ON IT CAUSE THE BIRD WAS JUMPING UP A LITTLE TO ME A LITTLE AWAY FROM ME AND HIGHER AND I WAS FAIRLY CLOSE TO THIS BIRD I'LL HAVE THE DISTANCE OF THE BIRD HERE SOMEWHERE IN IT BUT IT LOCKED ON IT STAYED ON AS YOU CAN SEE I DON'T HAVE ONE PICTURE OUT OF FOCUS THE SECOND ONE IS ABOUT 155 FRAMES AND THE OTHER ONE I SHOWED YOU A MINUTE AGO WITH THAT BUNTING I THINK IT WAS LIKE 50 FRAMES BUT AGAIN WHAT YOU'LL SEE IS THE OUT OF FOCUS DID NOT IT KEPT THE LENS WHERE IT NEEDED TO BE AND EVERY SHOT WAS IN FOCUS SO THE HIT RATE TO ME WAS EXTREMELY WELL WITH THIS CAMERA AND THERE'S ANOTHER THING THAT KIND OF SURPRISED ME WITH THIS CAMERA I DIDN'T SEE ANY DRIFT AND THAT'S ONE THING I REALLY WORRY ABOUT WITH THESE CAMERAS AUTO FOCUS SYSTEMS ESPECIALLY LIKE THE R7 AND SOME OTHERS IS EVEN THOUGH THE AUTO FOCUS SAYS HEY I'M LOCKED YOU KNOW THE LOCK BOX ON THE EYE OR THE BODY BUT YOU LOOK BACK YOUR IMAGE YOU'LL SEE A FEW GET OUT OF FOCUS I FOUND VERY LITTLE OF THOSE WHEN IT SAID IT WAS LOCKED IT PUT THE MOTORS WHERE IT NEEDED TO BE FOR THE LENS SO I THOUGHT IT WAS REALLY REALLY GOOD FOR THE HIT RATE ON THIS CAMERA I WAS REALLY SURPRISED WITH IT SO THE VIDEO AUTO FOCUS THIS ONE REALLY SHOCKED ME ALSO MORE SO THAN THE STILLS I THINK THE STILLS WOULD BE GOOD IF THEY GOT BETTER WITH THE AUTO FOCUS LIKE I SAW WITH THE R6 MARK II AND THE R8 THINGS LIKE THAT I KNEW THE AUTO FOCUS HAS GOT TO GET BETTER THAN THAT SO IT'S GONNA BE GOOD BUT THE VIDEO AUTO FOCUS WAS FANTASTIC WHAT I NOTICED WAS WHEN I HAD A BIRD IN FRAME I DIDN'T HAVE THE FOCUS I COULD SEE IT I KNOW THE BIRD WAS THERE THERE A JAEGER OR SOMETHING AND I SEE THE BLUR I KNOW THE BIRD'S THERE AS SOON AS I HIT THE SHUTTER BUTTON TO START THE VIDEO THAT CONTINUES AUTO FOCUS JUST GRABBED THAT BIRD AND STUCK ON THAT BIRD I HAD ALMOST NO TIMES WHERE THE AUTO FOCUS WOULD GET LOST NOW IF I HAD TWO BIRDS REALLY CLOSE TO EACH OTHER SOMETIMES IT MAY DRIFT TO THE OTHER ONE BUT THEY HAD TO BE REALLY CLOSE TO EACH OTHER FOR IT TO DRIFT OVER OR I WOULD TELL IT TO DRIFT OVER BY HITTING A BUTTON ON THE BACK THE ONLY TIME I HAD IT HAPPEN WHERE IT GOT LOST AND ALL MY CAMERAS WOULD HAVE GOT LOST IN THIS THING WITH VIDEO IS I HAD A GREBE SITTING OUT IN SOME LILY PADS I MEAN AMONGST THEM AND I HAD A GREBE AND THAT GREBE WAS ABOUT THE SAME COLOR AS THE LILY PADS AND WHEN I GOT THE FOCUS LOCKED GOT THE VIDEO ROLLING EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE IT WOULD KIND OF GO A LITTLE IT KIND OF SLOWLY PULSE OUT OF FOCUS TRYING TO GET THE YOU KNOW ONE OF THOSE LILY PADS INSTEAD OF THE BIRD THE BIRD WAS WAY ACROSS THE WATER TOO SO IT WAS ALL SMALL IN FRAME I DIDN'T REALLY EXPECT IT TO GRAB BUT IT DID BETTER THAN I THOUGHT BUT IT STILL WOULD GET LOST BUT THAT WAS THE EXTREME AND NONE OF MY CAMERAS THAT'S THE ONLY TIME I HAD IT DRIFT OFF SO THE AUTO-FOCUS OF VIDEO IS GOOD AND OVERALL THE AUTO-FOCUS ON THIS GUY LIKE ALL THE CANON CAMERAS HAVE BEEN IN THE MIRRORLESS SINCE THE R5 POST THOSE ALL THE CAMERAS CAME AFTER THAT ONE REALLY REALLY REALLY GOOD AUTO-FOCUS ON THIS GUY LET'S TALK ABOUT VIDEO ON THIS GUY SO FOR VIDEO IS SOMETHING THAT I NEED A LOT I JUMPED FROM STILLSVIDEO FOR THIS CHANNEL TO RECORD THE ANIMALS AND THE VIDEO ON THIS WAS REALLY REALLY NICE YOU CAN SHOOT UP TO 8K ON THIS GUY AND RAW RECORDING YOU CAN ALSO SHOOT UP TO 24 FRAMES PER SECOND ME I'M NOT AS CONCERNED ABOUT 8K AS WE CAN'T SHOOT THOSE REALLY HIGH SPEED FRAME RATES AT 120 TO 240 YES YOU CAN SHOOT UP TO 8K 60 BUT I NEED 120 FRAMES A SECOND OR MORE TO GET THOSE REALLY SLOW THINGS SO I'M SHOOTING 4K OR 1080P MOST OF THE TIME SO MOST OF THE TIME 99% OF THE TIME I'M SHOOTING 120 FRAMES A SECOND SO I'M SHOOTING 4K ON THIS GUY AND THAT'S THE MAX RESOLUTION YOU CAN GET IF YOU WANNA SHOOT 240 FRAMES A SECOND SO MAYBE I KNOW I'M GONNA HAVE SOMETHING THAT'S REALLY NUTTY WANNA SHOOT 240 I CAN ONLY SHOOT IN 1080P BUT JUST FINE I CAN UPSCALE THAT LATER IN FINAL CUT PRO OR IF YOU USE DAVICI RESOLVE YOU CAN UPGRADE IT YOU CAN NOT UPGRADE IT BUT UPSCALE IT THERE TO 4K THERE AND HOW DID I PERFORM WELL REALLY REALLY WELL I SHOT JUST A LITTLE BIT AT THE 240 FRAMES A SECOND JUST SEE WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE AT 1080P LOOKED GREAT LOOKED REALLY REALLY GOOD AND MOST OF THE TIME I SHOT THIS IN 4K 120 FRAMES A SECOND PRETTY MUCH EVERYWHERE I WENT AND IT PERFORMED EXTREMELY WELL AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE VIDEO YOU SAW IN THE LAST VIDEO WHAT LITTLE FOOTAGE YOU HAVE IN HERE AND WHAT THE SUBSEQUENT VIDEO IS COMING WE'LL HAVE A WHOLE VIDEO ABOUT HOW TO SET UP THE VIDEO WE'LL TALK ABOUT VIDEO RECORDING TOO A LITTLE BIT IN THE FIELD MAYBE ALRIGHT NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT IMAGE QUALITY THIS IS NOT A FINAL FOR IMAGE QUALITY ON THIS THING BUT WE CAN LOOK AT IMAGE QUALITY AS WE HAVE IT NOW WHY IS THAT CAUSE LIKE I SAID DXO IS NOT WORKING WITH THIS GUY AND THE PROFILES IN LIGHTROOM ARE KIND OF SKETCHY ALSO AND FOR ME DXO HAS TO BE A WORKFLOW I NEED THAT CAMERA PROFILE LENS PROFILE I NEED THE COLOR SETTINGS FROM THE MANUFACTURER I NEED THE SHARPENING AND THE NOISE REDUCTION THAT THE MANUFACTURER SAID THAT SHOULD BE IN THAT IMAGE KIND OF LIKE WHAT YOU SEE IN A JPEG IMAGE AND IT'S NOT HERE YET BUT WE CAN LOOK AT IT AS IT IS TODAY IMAGE COMING OUT OF IT AND TO ME IT'S VERY GOOD YOU CAN JUDGE FOR YOURSELF TO WHAT YOU THINK IN THE COMMENTS DOWN BELOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THE IMAGE WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE LIKE I SAID I DID EDIT THESE IMAGES BUT I DID APPLY NO SHARPENING NO NOISE REDUCTION TO ANY OF THESE IMAGES I JUST EDIT THEM FOR COLOR AND CROPPING THINGS LIKE THAT AND ALWAYS WITH THE CANON 5 SERIES CAMERAS AT 45 MEGAPIXELS IT'S REALLY NICE YOU GET A LOT OF ROOM TO CROP IN AND THE DETAIL IS AMAZING AND THE COLORS ARE THE TRADITIONAL GOOD CANON COLORS LIKE YOU KNOW A LITTLE MORE POPPY MAGENTAS THINGS LIKE THAT I REALLY LIKED WHAT WAS COMING OUT OF THIS GUY BUT AGAIN LET'S NOT BE THE FINAL JUDGE ON IQ UNTIL WE GET DXO WORKING BUT FOR WHAT I'M SEEING RIGHT NOW AS YOU CAN LOOK AT THESE LITTLE IMAGES THAT I'M KIND OF SHOW YOU THROUGH HERE AND THE LAST VIDEO IT TO ME LOOKS REALLY GOOD THE COLORS FROM CANON ARE PRETTY POPPY LOOK GREAT LOOKED REALLY NICE AS FAR AS VIDEO IQ STANDARD AND C-LOG 2 AND C-LOG 2 IT LOOKED REALLY REALLY GOOD IT HAD A LOT OF DETAIL A LOT OF COLORS I COULD PULL IN AND OUT OF THIS HAND GRADE AND IT LOOKED REALLY NICE I COULD REALLY TELL A DIFFERENCE FROM C-LOG 3 TO C-LOG 2 AS FAR AS WHAT I COULD RECOVER OUT OF THAT WHEN SHOOTING VIDEO NOW I'M UNDER A TIGHT SCHEDULE I'M TRYING TO GET A LOT OF VIDEOS OUT SO I DON'T HAVE TIME TO GRADE ALL THE FOOTAGE IT TAKES TIME SO FOR THE MOST TIME I SHOT THIS IN JUST STANDARD COLORS RIGHT OUT OF THE CAMERA AND THEY LOOK GREAT TO WHAT THOSE STANDARD COLORS WERE THEY WERE PRETTY CLOSE YES I CAN GET A LITTLE MORE OUT OF THOSE C-LOG 2 FILES BUT THE STANDARD COLORS LEAVING THE COLOR PROFILES OFF OR JUST USING THE CANON AND I JUST LEFT IT IN AUTO I DIDN'T PUT IT IN STANDARD OR ANY OTHER COLOR SETTINGS FOR THE VIDEO IT LOOKED REALLY GOOD ALL THAT VIDEO YOU'RE SEEING ON THE LAST VIDEO ALL BUT ONE CLIP AND IF YOU COULD FIND IT LET ME KNOW THEY WERE ALL STANDARD STANDARD CANON COLORS AND ONE C-LOG 2 CLIP IN THAT WHOLE VIDEO IF YOU CAN FIND IT LET ME KNOW I'LL TELL YOU IF YOU'RE RIGHT OR NOT BUT FOR THE IMAGE QUALITY OUT OF THE VIDEO GREAT DETAILS GREAT TRACKING'S GREAT AND A LOT OF FOLKS I COULD TALK BEFORE COULDN'T BE HAPPIER WITH THE VIDEO AND THE IQ COMING OUT OF THIS SO MY CONCLUSION ON THIS CAMERA IT'S VERY GOOD IT'S ACTUALLY BETTER THAN MY EXPECTATIONS I KNEW IT'D BE GOOD AS THE R5 WAS A GREAT CAMERA BUT THIS THING REALLY IMPRESSED ME THE EVF ALONE WAS A HUGE FACTOR IN GETTING GOOD SHOTS THE CLARITY AND BRIGHTNESS OF THE SUBJECT MADE GETTING FOCUS AND EXPOSURE MUCH MUCH EASIER IT WAS SOMETHING THAT DON AND I KEPT COMING BACK TO YOU ABOUT THIS CAMERA JUST ABOUT HOW GOOD EVERYTHING LOOKED THROUGH THAT VIEWFINDER THE PRE-CONTINUED SHOOTING BEING IN THE CAMERA ROLE NOW AND HOW IT'S WORKING WAS CLUTCHING WHILE THE PHOTOGRAPHY FOR ME ESPECIALLY IN THE WAY MY SHOOTING NEEDS ARE TO CAPTURE THAT MOMENT THAT A LOT OF TIMES I WOULD MISS IT WAS SO NICE TO HAVE IN THE ARSENAL THE AUTO-FOCUS SNAPPINESS AND STICKINESS WAS VERY VERY GOOD I DIDN'T MISS MANY BURDEN FLIGHT SHOTS IF I COULD SWING AND GET THEM IN THE VIEWFINDER I COULD JUST SWING THAT LENS AROUND AND GRAB THEM VERY EASILY AND IT JUST WORKED AND WORKED WELL NOW GETTING LOW ON THE WATER AND GRASS WHEN THE BIRD IS PARTIALLY OBSCURED I DID HAVE A SINGLE POINT SOMETIMES GET THE FOCUS PLAYING BUT IT SEEMED MUCH LESS NEED ON THE R5 MK2 ON SOME OF THE OTHER CAMERAS I USE SO DON'T THINK IT GRABS IN EVERY SITUATION NO CAMERA DOES THE VIDEO STABILIZATION AND TRACKING IS AMAZING ON THIS CAMERA THE STABILIZATION WAS VERY NOTICEABLE MADE HANDLING A LARGE PRIME LENS MUCH MUCH EASIER SO FAR EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS CAMERA HAS BEEN GREAT AND AS I SAID MORE THAN I EXPECTED WHEN I STARTED WE PUT THIS THING THROUGH THE RINGER VERY CHALLENGING LIGHT AND WEATHER AND IT SURVIVED AND DIDN'T GIVE ME ANY FITS REALLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY GETTING THE SHOTS WAS VERY VERY EASY DUE TO THE CAMERAS PERFORMANCE AND FEATURES IT CHECKED ALL THE BOXES I NEED IN THE WORK HORSE PORTFOLIO CAPTURING CAMERA ONE THAT YOU COULD CHOOSE TO PUT IN YOUR BAG IF YOU'RE GONNA GO SOMEWHERE SPECIAL TO MAKE SURE YOU CAN FORM IT YOUR BEST AND GET THE SHOT NOW THE LAST THING IS IF CAN WE'LL JUST PUT OUT OUR PRO LEVEL WILDLIFE RF LENS THAT'LL BE NICE BUT BESIDES THAT GUYS I HOPE THIS VIDEO SHED SOME MORE LIGHT ON THIS CAMERA WE HAVE A LOT MORE VIDEOS COMING SOON ON THIS GUY COMPARISON TO THE R5 AND SHOULD YOU UPGRADE AS WE GET DXL READY MORE AND MORE SO MAKE SURE YOU SUBSCRIBE TO THE CHANNEL AND SET UP YOUR NOTIFICATION SO YOU DON'T MISS ANYTHING OF THOSE VIDEOS AND ALWAYS GUYS UNTIL NEXT TIME WE SEE EACH OTHER GET OUTSIDE AND GO RUN THAT SHUTTER
