Post your R5 Images Here

Magnus3D wrote in post #19134093
I went out with some street photography friends to try their type of thing, it's not something i usually do and after testing it i will probably never do it again. Boring and pointless photography of random humans on the street. I felt meh after testing that..

This type of sneaky photography was easy with the silent R5, rarely anyone noticed me and no one heard me shooting.

These are incredible. I shot with that lens once and would love to own it.

ISO 2000

Many great birding photos.

But, so far it's not as epic as photos posted on 5D MK4 after it launched.

I think more people are watching their disposable income/credit card debt now vs. when the 5dIV was introduced.

A lot of people in lockdown or restricted travel/movement. As for me, it's a time limitation problem. And yes, I also have a 5DIV and am very fond of it. I had more time to play with it when I got it than I do now.

You do realize we are in a global pandemic? Back orders are not even all filled, travel restricted in a many areas, sports hurt really badly. I really do not know what comments like this prove. This camera camera has the best AF system ever introduced in a Canon camera period. I am not putting down the 5d Mark 4 either but this camera is better in many ways but I do not think you here for that sort of info.

Did you buy one? Let me guess I doubt it.

loving the light and drama..sweet shot x2

It's my "first impression" to the camera from this valued forum.

I would say you are not looking good enough then.

I interpreted your comment here a bit differently so I'll respond a bit differently.

As a current 5D IV shooter myself (as you are), I don't find the R5 samples displayed here to be "epic-ally" different from those with 5D IV. When I upgraded from 5D III to 5D IV a few years back, I wasn't expecting that my photo outcomes would be all that different, epic-ally or not. I upgraded nevertheless because I can do certain things (crop-ability being one major example) with the 5D IV that I couldn't do with the III. I'm now going to upgrade from 5D IV to R5 and, again, not because of my expectation that the image outcomes would be epic-ally different from the 5D IV but because of what I can do with the R5 that I can't with the IV. While I don't have the R5 yet, one thing I do fully expect from the upgrade is the greater number of keepers. While I love my 5D IV (enough that I'll keep it as a backup body), it also has been a source of great frustration at times when I missed great opportunities while shooting birds in flight. With the vast superior improvements in AF system in the R5, I expect to grab some of those great opportunities back. With greater crop-ability, too, I can retain more details out of those bird feathers even if I failed to fill the bird with the frame.

Great shot Mike. Love you got it with a EF-S lens. Shows it can do a good job with the right photographer behind it.

Thanks Dave,
I have a few EF-S format lenses that I'll be swapping out as soon as I can afford better glass. For now they do the job. Dynamic range of the R5 also helps.

I have a couple as well as a crop frame fisheye I held onto. I tried them when I had the R and it was fun to mess with them. I haven't had time yet to try them on the R5 but they should be fine. That's a beautiful photo, Mike!

Yeah, the 10-22mm has an excellent reputation - there is nothing wrong with it.
