How you intend to use R5?

Mainly stills + short (1-5 min) video clips

I'm mainly a stills guy currently shooting with the 7Dmk2, but do shoot some video-Clips of Family and wild-life now and then.

I love all the upgrades going from an ageing aps-c camera to the FF-world. That bird-AF seems amazing, in general the AF seems spectacular, high fps, much better DR, IBIS, timelapse-videos etc.

When I buy the R5 next spring or something I'm looking forward to only record 4K-video. The oversampled Crop-mode is really interesting since it gives more reach to the long teles, for stills as well. I'm planning to use the 4K HQ (oversampled 8K) and 4K120P, so when real reviews start showing up I'll be curious about the availability/thermal limits for those video-modes in every-day use.

I also think the 20 fps ES will be very useful for me shooting kids and bigger birds.
