The hand held video on that side by side is a most impressive demonstration of the IS. If you have ever been in a side by side going fast out in the woods you know the ride can be brutal.

Actually it would be great to have for dance which I shoot quite often.  And I wouldn't be giving my my 1DX's anytime soon as they work superb for everything else I shoot.  Almost all of my ...

Actually, I shoot high level dance competitions, currently with my 1DX2, (well not since Covid-19). When a soloist dances to a very quiet song, the 1DX2 shutter/mirror can sound like a canon (no ...

My #1 reason for getting an R5 would be for the silent(er) shutter for certain types of photography I do.  AF capability would have to match or exceed my 1DX II. The high end RF glass canon is ...

Aha, I shamed them into it by starting this thread!  :-P

So you have no problem with " Olympus to ship 150-400mm F4.5 this winter, adds 8-25mm F4 Pro to lens roadmap " but think zero mention on DPReview's "news" page of one of the biggest announcements ...

Yup!

Although I'm positive DPReview has had a R5 for a while (a review will pop up as as soon as its launched) but I seriously doubt keeping the Launch Event secret is part of their NDA.  It's not only ...

My same thought!

Does anyone else find it odd that the largest camera maker in the world has announced an event for their largest product launch to date and there is not a peep about it on DPREVIEW home page? REIMA ...

Certainly Covid-19 has thrown a monkey wrench into the equation, but before that mess I've been looking. Played with the latest Sony stuff, not overly impressed. Will borrow a R5 from CPS when the ...

I don't have a 1DX3 or R5 (of course) but have had every 1D up to the 1DX2. Here are some of my pics over the past 10 years: Valentino Rossi at the 2011 MotoGP race at the Indianapolis motor speedway.

My photography progression during the film days was painfully slow. I could occasionally get some good pics but always blamed my gear when I didn't. My 1st digital camera was the Nikon d70. Wow, ...

Pro bodies really don't wear out. You get the moving parts replaced as needed and keep on shooting. A mirror box, which needs to be replaced about every 1 million shots, cost less than 10% of a new...

Greg OH: Google "famines of biblical proportion loom" for the dire predictions coming from the UN. The cure has the potential to make the death count from Covid-19 look like a walk in the park.

Most venues that I shoot at with LED lighting are fine with no flicker at all.  Just a couple of venues I shoot at have the LED flickering lights.

Most of the venues I shoot at have switched to either power-saving LED lighting in the past few years. However, several venues where I often shoot now have LED lighting that flickers quite a bit.  ...

Either you have very bad luck or I've had very good luck.  My company has put between 250,000 and 500,000 click on my 1D bodies every year since 2005.  I've had a few shutters fail after 750,000 ...

As a sports event shooter that sells onsite and delivers images straight out of my camera why on earth would I shoot RAW?

I have been shooting High ISO sports since 2005 starting with the 1D Mark 2 in 2005. The High ISO IQ that present day gear produces is astonishingly good. ISO 1600 back in the day looked like...
