Thanks Rob great shooting, are you getting blackout shooting burst's, if so in Electronic or Mechanical shutter ?

How does it compare to the 1DXIII ?

I have not used it much to really compare it to the 1dx yet. My initial findings I am not seeing blackout, it seems like shooting the 1dx. However tracking will be a better test for that. I do have mine set to 120 fps. I can say this is better than the R in every area that I wanted improved. To be expected the buffer is slower than the 1dx, you get spoiled there. The AF is really good. I think people will be very happy with this purchase. I find the noise cleans up very nicely. Crop mode is fantastic, one of the main reasons I wanted it. My 400mm f2.8 will be equivalent to a 640 f2.8 pure sweetness. I bought the 90d for that reason but the files with the higher noise was just not for me, I was concerned being 45mp but this seems awesome at the moment.

Wow, just awesome!

These images actually look better than your pre-R5 images, and those were absolutely great already!

This is the best PR for the R5 yet, if you'd ask me!

Kindest regards, Wim

Thanks for the kind words.

Okay I got out a little this morning, light rain and clouds. The main reason I wanted this camera is to use my 400mm f2.8 in the 1.6x crop mode. This is an equivalent to 640mm at f2.8. Pure sweetness. The animal eye was outstanding in this crap light. The AF speed is outstanding. I used silent shutter. So far I am very pleased. So far I used the 600mm III with the 2x III and the 400mm III without issue.

You are getting me more and more excited for my delivery. It's on the truck heading here now! Hopefully I'm one of the first stops - I'm pretty far from the distribution center.

looking forward to your BIF shots.. these stills so far look darn sharp..I am waiting to pull the trigger here with more evidence.

Thanks for the update Rob, will wait to hear your report on tracking with regards to blackout.

I am not surprised of your report on how well the AF was in low light. As I watched a video on how well the AF worked in extremely low light. Actually it was pretty impressive.

How does the 45MP equate in MP in crop mode ?

Jesus Robamy your good, I know this is the R5 but let's be clear, not anyone can pull of some of these shots, and I've seen your others in the past, I've got some of the best gear going, but it takes skill, Canon should have just let you do the PR for the R5, not that I am removing my pre order, sadly I failed to make the cut, and my R5 has an unknown arrival. Great pics! That last one is brilliant.

Thank you very much. Hopefully yours will come in soon

Mine is here! FedEx said Direct Signature Required - I found out it was sitting on my porch via an email from FedEx. lol. Battery is charging. Threw in an old LP-E6N just to start cruising the menus and taking care of some basics. Now I have a zoom meeting in 30, so I just put it aside until after my meeting. The size changes from the R are noticeable but feel good to me. I have to say I'm already fumbling in the menus though - I got used to the direction pad under the thumb. It feels like that was a lot faster. Just some muscle memory. Speaking of which, I recently developed tennis elbow which is really sucking for photography!!!

These are all very nice Rob. Good to hear it works well with EF glass. I think your examples and comments will much more useful than any of the stuff that's been on Youtube so far.

I was about to buy a Sony A9II so I will hang on a bit and see how this new camera works out.

Quick shot from the patio along with a 2:1 view. Definitely happy with this rig.
