If you don't shoot 4K/8K video, spending $2500/$3500 for R6/R5 seem rather meaningless. There are only (3) still improvements:
- Animal Eye AF for birding is very useful
- Faster FPS, as both EOS-R / RP are SLOW for action
- IBIS
I tend to crop heavily shooting wild life, so a lower resolution 20mp is a no go for me. 26mp RP and 30mp EOS-R buy me more room (resolution insurance) to crop and isolate the bird. Sadly both older camera struggle in C-AF with poor FPS. So neither R/RP/R6 offer a compelling solution.
- I can use a lower price $1499 Canon R7 with 32mp APS-C sensor from 90d/M6ii. Hopefully it'll come with IBIS and animal eye AF like the newly released Nikon Z5
Lastly even if you shoots video for a living, you can't use either R5/R6 reliably for wedding. Key moment when Bridie walking down an isles to her saying YES can take as long as an hour depending on the brides, the unforseen delays etc.., you can't afford to have camera overheats & shutdown @those critical moments. I'm not sure R5 / R6 fits anywhere. Overheating prevent them from being a reliable camcorder for the videographer, low res of R6 make a poor choice for photography, higher resolution 45mp R5 seem overprice comparing to a whopping 61mp Sony A7R4.
R5/R6 are fine cameras, but they're not the "Revolution" as quoted from canons hype machines.
You can record all day long in 4K 30p (not HQ) or crop oversampled 4K 30p. I don't see what's wrong with this...

Fujifilm's X-H2 is a high-resolution stills and video camera, that sits alongside the high-speed X-H2S at the pinnacle of the company's range of X-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras. We dug into what it does and what it means.
Holy Stone produces dozens of low-cost drone models aimed at consumers. We look at the HS710 and HS175D to see if they stack up to other sub-250g offerings. Are these secretly great or more like toys?
It's small, light, cheap and extremely wide but is it any good?
After weeks with a production Fujifilm X-T5, Chris and Jordan have some final thoughts.
Released only weeks apart, the Sony 50mm F1.4 GM and Sigma F1.4 DG DN Art are clear competitors. Which is the better buy?
Above $2500 cameras tend to become increasingly specialized, making it difficult to select a 'best' option. We case our eye over the options costing more than $2500 but less than $4000, to find the best all-rounder.
There are a lot of photo/video cameras that have found a role as B-cameras on professional film productions or even A-cameras for amateur and independent productions. We've combed through the options and selected our two favorite cameras in this class.
What’s the best camera for around $2000? These capable cameras should be solid and well-built, have both the speed and focus to capture fast action and offer professional-level image quality. In this buying guide we’ve rounded up all the current interchangeable lens cameras costing around $2000 and recommended the best.
Family moments are precious and sometimes you want to capture that time spent with loved ones or friends in better quality than your phone can manage. We've selected a group of cameras that are easy to keep with you, and that can adapt to take photos wherever and whenever something memorable happens.
What's the best camera for shooting sports and action? Fast continuous shooting, reliable autofocus and great battery life are just three of the most important factors. In this buying guide we've rounded-up several great cameras for shooting sports and action, and recommended the best.
