Samyang's AF sucks for video, so Canon all the way.

Do people AF during video? Even on lenses with silent and quick AF it still looks awful to me to have focus move around during video clips.

Yes, most Vlogging needs AF to get satisfactory results.

One of the cool feature of R5 and R6 is the smoothness of AF change during Video shooting is programmable. You can select between fast AF that gives kind of abrupt but fastest focus change or different degree of smoothness for more gradual but slower focus change
