EOS R5 C Mirrorless Digital Cinema Camera Body
Product Details
Web ID: 18162131Cinema OS is amazing!
I mainly shoot video and didn't know I needed the cinema OS until now. I have had about a dozen Canon bodies over the years and doing video via the photo OS was just normal to me. Now that I have the R5C with dedicated video OS it's just so much better running the camera. I know the battery life has been an issue but with firmware updates, new LP-E6P batteries and other work arounds I have had no major issues. I got a SmallRig VB99 also for longer shoots and all that is resolved. I do wish Canon would add the traditional recording timer (like on my R5) to the cinema OS, I shoot a lot of 20-30 second clips to that is useful to know I got the seconds I need, rather than just timecode. This is my favorite Canon body so far.

No c-log 2
Bought this camera for hybrid work and it was fine for the most part. No c-log 2 is just the main reason i can't say that i love this camera. i know that canon stated that sensor is just not capable of that dynamic range of c log 2 but i dont think thats completely true. "C-log 3 is easier to grade" really? That sounds like a joke for people who bought a "cinema" line camera. Why dont you just give us an opportunity to choose when to use c-log 2 or c-log 3? Even if c-log 2 gonna be noisy mess. Adding this profile is fairly easy and it is gonna solve so much ranting from people but of course your not gonna do it, just out of principle, great attitude for your customers Canon

Wow.
This camera has been everything I could've ever asked for in a camera. Great quality photo and video results, whether straight off the camera or edited and polished. I feel as if 10 years ago, when I started dabbling around in photography, this quality wouldn't have been possible. The fan runs super-quiet, such that you won't hear it in on-camera audio (unless it's in high-speed mode). For those who would balk at the price, think of it like this...the next cheapest camera capable of recording full-frame 8K60 is twice this price or more (sure, this one requires external power to do it, but still). So much capability, and a year later, I'm still learning. Canon really hit this one out of the park.

Small form factor professional video quality.
Great quality camera once you work out the quirks of short battery life, not having CLOG2. Some features like 8K 60P is only available in RAW and with a USB-C connected power or with the DR-E6C . I ended up making my own BP-A30 Battery grip, using a DR-E6C which allows 100% access to all the features of the camera. I hope canon is listening as they could create a 9Volt battery grip that can solve so many headaches. Also having 8k 60p in MP4(HVEC) YCC422 10bit would be a great feature to have. Canon continues to support this camera in firmware updates which is encouraging as your investment keeps getting better and better.

Flexible Camera system
Been using this cam for 8 months now and I am completely blown away by its flexibility. It is one of the best hybrid cinema cameras on the market when used correctly.

Fantastic for elevating your creativity
Been using this camera for my YouTube channel and what an experience it has been. The quality and feature set are just great for my needs. The camera side for pictures are also great 👍. Battery life is an issue but I generally run it on a rig. In photo mode the battery life is great. Definitely would recommend for anyone that's got the extra money for the extra features over the r5.

Sports enthusiast
This allows me to take fantastic action photos. I like landscape photography & portrait also so I upgraded my camera body to get rid of the burst lag. Definitely worth the investment.
