I am like you, but fully appreciate different needs of other people. Just wondering if this is indeed true that people mostly do video now as all discussions are about video overheat.

Hi Light Pilgrim,

Good post.

In 18 months with my R I've shot 10's of 1,000's of still images but less than 5 minutes of Movie footage. Movie mode is there if I ever need it, but I have little to zero interest in it.

When I watch camera reviews I just speed skip through the movie section (sorry Jordan!).

When I get an R5 it will be primarily for stills.

I appreciate others will have differing needs.

I believe the forum regulars (pre R5/ R6) shared a fairly similar level of interest to me about Movie Mode and 'film making' as there was little to no discussion about them (that I noted).

Things may change now, but I suspect the haters and trolls are picking up on any negatives.

Strangely, none of them have posted links to any examples of the movies they've made...

I'm not 'anti-film maker' by any means, but don't expect me to join in the movie chit chat.

Phil
