Is the 7RV significantly better than the r5 for animal tracking ? Would save a lot of money on lenses etc
canon mirrorless has the focus tracking and tilting screen. Adapted EF lenses work perfectly. Might be more cost effective overall.
I agree with you. The only thing I would HATE with canon is the flip out rear screen. I own the Sony A9 A7RIII and the Sony A7IV. The screen on the A7iv when flipped out for low or high angles drive me nuts. I much prefer the ones on my older A9 and A7RIII. I suspect canon will move towards the Nikon Z8/9 and Sony A7RV type of screen with the R5II.
The R5 is a vastly better option than a switch to Sony unless you really want all those pixels. In which case you’ll have to wait for the R5II.
Yes it was save a lot of money on lenses if I choose the R5 over the Sony.
I don't like the R6 because it loses more pixels than I already have (30). No good for me. Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm going to wait thanks.
yes, it Flips all the way around so you can take selfies too
What do you need the pixels for?
I am thinking that I may not wait for the R5 mkII. But I'll have to think about it.
I mean thats absolutely not true. And those marketing men are rubbing their hands in glee, knowing you’ve fallen for it.
R5 from Einfin is £2299 if you don’t mind ordering GM.Going with the R5, mount adapter, and new memory card
I was going to order from a company in Hong Kong, but from the experience I had with a lens I bought from there, I've decided to give it a miss.
, bought a memory card too.
Each to their own but you could have saved yourself £400 ordering from Einfin, you’d have just waited a few extra days.Gone with HDEW instead.
Strange that the adapter is out of stock everywhere, but appears to be in stock if bundled with the Canon R5
I didn't even read Einfin properly. I knew about it from a person who told me about the company on Twitter. I was going to order from there, but decided to order from Panamoz but had a problem with Paypal, so went with HDEW instead. More expensive than either but less expensive than WEX where I was previously going to order from.
Possibly, but only if your lenses can resolve it. Most don't go even near 8k. What do you have?
fair enough, I imagine most wouldn't bother to keep it up to date, I certainly don't.
while you near enough get this in a lowly R6 (1.1x), and fully in R6 II, expandable to 6K with Ninja V+
Well I did put my heart on the A7R V but others on here, as you see, said to get the R5 instead for the tracking.
100-400 II should be fine, hopefully. I am rather curious if this is a truly 8K lens, or just a very close miss. 100mm macro yes, mostly for closeup work at medium apertures, no infinity focus work for sure. 16-35 f/4 best case scenario is 16mm and even then the edges never truly get there. You may as well sell on 24-70mm and the rest. I did and certainly don't look back.
So with one potentially really good lens you may as well open the door for other new glass with a SONY body and adapter to tide you over. It will depend on how much you need uncropped 4K60p x-LOG3 video as that only really comes with Sony A1
Most YT reviews will say Sony and Canon are about equal in tracking performance. You may be splitting hairs. Sony has a better sensor, Canon has more speed and fps. Both can do very reasonable work, and the operator is definitely the more important factor. I would base my decision here predominantly on the available lens options for either system. One may be a slightly better camera, but if you don't like or can't afford their lenses it is just no good.
Congrats, you will love it. It’s a massive step up from the 5DM4. AF tracking will work better on all your lenses. Try to resist the GAS. I still have all my EF lenses and yet to buy an RF lens. A friend popped over this evening to borrow a couple of lenses for a fashion shoot tomorrow because guess what, they are in the process of selling all their Sony gear to switch to Canon R5.Gone with HDEW instead.

Well you have fairly bad comprehension skills if that's what you think you read here - I was one of the people who thought it'd be daft switching to Sony, and nowt to do with the tracking being superior, but simply because of the number of lenses you already owned that you could carry on using.
