Um, you should work for the ministry of tourism, because I desperately want to visit the Scottish highlands now :) Thanks for using my and Kevin's music
This is my wife’s favorite mic. Her voice “pops” in our commercial videos. From my perspective I love the easy set-up and reliability. It’s incredibly compact. Love it!
wait a second…the receiver doesnt use phantom power but only turns on and off? Are you sure of that?! i have spent almost 1K for this feature only. The MKE2 is on its way to me right now.
I'm afraid I'm quite sure. I think phantom power just isn't enough to power the receiver. Having said that, battery life on the receiver hasn't been a problem for me; and don't forget that the battery is removable, so you can have a spare, and you can power it over USB.
Excellent post! question(s). Is the autofocus of the R5c similar to the R5? (for wildlife...) Can we get 12 bits out of it...🤔 may be using an external recorder.. or not even with that...? thanks! cheers! ;)
Thanks for the comment! I don't use autofocus much, and I don't shoot wildlife much at all, so I'm not the best person to answer that; but the AF on the R5C is pretty good, good enough for pieces to camera etc. It's not the same as the R5, but still good. As for 12-bit, you get this in raw; see the review at 15:18.
Looks like you’re living your best life, creating reviews at the lake with mountains in the back. AGREED, NO REASON FOR THE VIDEO SOFTWARE NOT TO ALLOW BLUE TOOTH REMOTE CONTROL! COMMON CANON!
The reason, that the AVX system uses microUSB and not USB-C is, that it was introduced in 2015. It's not a new system. USB-C was introduced in 2014, but the first devices using USB-C weren't around until 2016. Retooling would probably not be worth it for Sennheiser, depending on how many units they sell.
absolutely fantastic information video and a pleasure to listen to your voice, no fx etc... easy to watch concentrated on important points and very detailled, thanks a lot
Great video. Probably the best as far as knowledge goes on the R5C. I'm always thinking about getting this camera but the few flaws just hold it back so much. And I end up sticking to my Sony. It's that micro HDMI that really gets me. A long with no remote control. But it looks like a beautiful camera and a lot of ways I just don't understand why Cannon decided to limit it and such strange ways battery choice is another one. Anyway great so-called not review. Absolutely one of the best on this camera I've ever seen better than many of the popular RU-vidrs out there. So factual and to the point edited well. Have a good one good at least one more subscriber.
Great idea! In fact I just went ahead and did it. You can download cheat sheets for the R5C and C70 from the MudLake Gear page, or get the R5c here: moonblink.info/File/Documents/MudLake/R5CCheatSheet.pdf
I think what you're seeing is the message you get when you turn the camera off from video mode, which of course happens when you switch through to photo mode. It's just general adivce. I always completely ignore it when switching modes.
@@atticuslake Yes I did the first few times but then I realized it said to put the lens cap on. If you've been using it for 8 months I suppose it hasn't caused any issue lol.
@@PizzlesTechTime The point is it's only telling you that because you are turning the camera OFF. When you turn the camera off, putting the lens cap on is good advice. But in your case, you are turning it off and then straight into the other mode -- you're not really turning it off. This is just a wierd side-effect of the power switch having OFF in the middle. So I think you can safely ignore it. Putting the lens cap on while you change modes can't possibly make any difference.
@@atticuslake thank you so much. This is my first Canon cinema camera. Cannon has a lot of quirks that Panasonic did not have. I have been focusing on learning the cinema menu first.
@@PizzlesTechTime You're welcome. The R5C's dual modes are certainly a novel quirk, but once you're focussed on video (or stills) I think it will get a lot easier. All the best!
I feel like everyone that gets an R5C should take this as a 101 course. Just rewatched and I think I need to watch it once a week to take in the plethora of information documented here.
Damn. What a comprehensive review. Thanks for your fair assessment. You sound like how I’d approach a review. Quadruple kudos. Not many people like you left in the world.
I’ve shot a lot with the R5 & FX3. (R5 personal- FX3 at work) I know the FX3 has better stats but man I love shooting with the R5 better. Personally, shall I get an R5c or FX3?
I'm afraid only you can decide that. I was on the fence between the A7SIII, the FX3, and the C70 for a month; in the end I got the C70, but it was a close call. The FX3 is going to be smaller, lighter and more compact, and have a decent lens choice; but for me, the R5C is just a lovely camera. If you liked the R5, then you'll love the R5C, as its video mode makes video shooting a joy. As long as you don't need remote control.
I think you should look for better sources of information. If you watch my review, you'll see that the fan can turn itself off when recording. Off means no noise at all. And I don't know what you mean by stability -- it's been a completely reliable workhorse for me. By all means hold out for the next great camera, but be aware that that process never ends.
Thanks a lot for the detailed info - I appreciate the tables including bitrates per time and type of a card. I'm planning to buy this camera and I want to dual record RAW + lower quality backup to the SD card so this information is helpful for me!
Thank you for this detailed video! I also saw the one you made on the r5. Out of the two, which one would you recommend for a hybrid shooter? The r5c is about 900 euros more expensive here than the r5 so I’m thinking the r5 is better value. Is the video quality that much better on the r5c?
I think it just depends on what matters to you, and how much you're willing to pay for it. I don't think you're going to see any difference in video quality; they have the same sensor, although they use it in different ways (the R5C has dual base ISO), but the results are going to be pretty similar. Then again the R5C can do 8k at 60 FPS, and it has no record time limit; if you want to shoot over half an hour, that could really matter. Then again the R5 gets better battery life, and of course is more compact. Personally I shoot with the R5C because the video OS is just nicer for video shooting.
@@atticuslake thanks for the response. I’ve seen online that the r5c appears to have better dynamic range too which for me is quite important, do you find this also compared to the r5?
@@MrMolotov69 I haven't tested dyn range specifically; others have, like Gerald Undone. I don't think there's a lot of difference, though the dual ISOs might help a little. Again, it's the same sensor.
Thanks! In Super35 crop mode, the camera only reads the central 4k part of the sensor, so it is creating 4k video from 4k photosites. So no oversampling is possible.
