NOTE: This is a re-upload of this video--I added in a couple minutes near the end to talk about my final thoughts on the R5II vs. the R7 on this outing!
While I was in Florida recently, I had to revisit the amazing Orlando Wetlands Park, which is a real wonderland for birding and wildlife. This time I naturally wanted to try out the R5 Mark II, and compare it to my trusty R7. To keep the focal lengths equivalent, I put the RF 800mm f/11 on the R5II and the RF 100-500mm L lens on the R7 (and then on a return visit I paired the 100-500mm with the R5II).
Come along and see what I came up with, some new lifer birds for me, plus the alligator that almost got me!

Pulled the trigger on the R5ii. Would love to see a dedicated video on how you have it set up. I thought I read that you can now export configurations. Actually, I think I saw someone was selling their setup.

Yes, it can export and import settings, which is nice! I should export mine for backup, if nothing else. I'm definitely planning a setup video--not an exhaustive one, menu by menu, but at least the major tweaks I've made to get it where I like it! I think you'll be pleased! Don't expect a jump in image quality compared to the original R5--the new sensor is about speed rather than lower noise or higher dynamic range. But I am definitely finding it more flexible and powerful than the R5.

Thanks for the comparison Kelly. I currently have an R5 and an R7. I just spent a bit of time using the R7 while my daughter used the R5. We were in North Carolina looking for some warblers and my daughter loves the R5. I just can't get used to the button layout so my plan is to sell the R7 and get the R5ii. The only real advantage I see is the crop factor, but since I really need 2 of them for myself and my daughter, I am having a tough time getting rid of the R5. So if anyone is looking for an R7 with a transferrable Canon CarePak warranty, hit me up. :-)

They definitely made some different control choices on the R7, I know what you mean! I'm hanging on to mine because the crop factor does come in handy sometimes, and it's a nice small and light choice for quick trips sometimes. I'm very interested in seeing what the R7II might offer, whenever Canon get around to that refresh.

Is this the same video that was posted roughly a week ago? That one seems to have disappeared so I’m confused 😊

I realized I should have added a section to cover my final thoughts on the R5II vs R7 on this outing, so I filmed that and spliced it in. RU-vid sadly doesn't have a way to simply replace an existing video, so I had to re-upload as a new one. So this is the same video, with a couple extra minutes of Future Kelly added in near the end. :)

@@wanderland_xyzThanks for the confirmation, I did think that you’d added the extra bit in at the end and posted another comment but deleted it as I didn’t know if that what the case!! You managed to get some spectacular bird photos and a lot of these birds are alien to me as they do not appear in the UK so very interesting to see them as well. I can see you using the R5 mk2 more and more and the R7 only being used on the odd occasion at this rate, I suspect the image quality combined with the sharper AF is quite adictive 😊

@@666JGNotts The R7 definitely still has a place for me, the crop factor is often very useful. Just trying to get comfortable with the new bells and whistles of the R5II--but yes, the upgraded autofocus is pretty awesome! I'll be watching closely for the R7 Mark II, if it adds the improved AF and pre-capture it's going to be amazing too.
