I hope so. I attempted to go that way but the camera soon turned to backordered on the site. I asked the customer service chat if there was an in stock camera attached to my order and they said ...

This is a local shop on Long Island that also does mail order. They got me my R5 in a week and had a number of lenses in store. I got the RF 85/2 and RF 50/1.2 from them in person. I would call and ...

Have a local store on Long Island that I put a deposit down on an R5 last week and picked it up last night. I got lucky that they didn't have any other preorders as only one body came in.

That's great that they shipped it that way to you but Canon does not seal the boxes that they send out.

Not sure how Premiere Elements does it but when you export from Premiere, if you choose constant bit rate, it will estimate toward the bottom what the file size will be. You can then adjust your ...

Wonderful write up and beautiful pictures. Thank you for sharing your art and your experience.

Understood. I've read enough of his posts to know he likes gear. If he's considering the R5 then he's not afraid to spend on his hobby. Some nice lenses could be in his future. That was my only point.

I think maybe as big a factor in your decision is your future lens plans. If you plan on investing further into RF-L lenses, the R5 would take the greatest advantage of those investments.

DSLRs have been used in countless feature films as secondary or smaller cameras when camera size is a factor or as a primary on smaller budget films. The majority of the users will not be filming ...

1080p is standard delivery in television, but being able to finish in 4k and downconvert is future-proofing. For example: Most shows before the digital and HD were being shot on 35mm film and then ...

Read the Q&A on the B&H listing. It seems the way the grip is setup, one battery is for the camera and the other for the wifi transmitter. It seems to say (and I have no RTFM...) that both ...

Supposedly this is much faster and offers an ethernet option... for $999.... https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1573783-REG/canon_wft_r10a_wireless_file_transmitter.html

Seems like the ISO is pretty evenly matched with the R up until about 3200... and then the R really falls off.  Having the R and considering upgrading my 5Diii for the R5 or R6, I was a little ...

As an editor, I wish every director shooting was as competent as you describe. The old axiom, "there's the movie you write, then the movie you film, and then the movie you edit" exists for a ...

I played around with the raw files from that shoot a little in Davinci. Didn't give it a ton of time but I leveled everything off and played with the exposure a bit to see how it responded. The ...

Nobody willingly wants to shoot what should be a two camera interview with one camera. But budgets are budgets and sometimes you don't have a choice. Having the extra resolution to punch in tight ...

Maybe not for you. This camera looks positioned to do for the professional video market what the 5Dmkii did. I'm a professional video editor and I know of people who haven't shot Canon in years who ...

I second this. I made the jump from the MkI non-IS to the MkII with IS and the difference was substantial.

The price point for that type of performance falls well below non DSLR "professional" video cameras. I know of a few directors/DPs who haven't shot Canon in years that are planning on buying it ...

I find the positioning basically against the mount difficult to use. I'm also not really used to it yet so hoping that will adjust.
