Absolutely on point! R5C is a Netflix-approved hybrid camera, capable of shooting astounding 8K RAW footage at 60fps-it's a long-term investment, easily lasting a decade. Snagged four pristine EF prime lenses (24, 50, 85, 125) for under $2100-a steal for incredible image quality! Enhancing it further with an adapter with ND filter, and external battery has been fantastic (I don't take the adapter off). The seamless compatibility with my DJI RS 3 Pro just elevates the entire experience. Personally, I use the Nitze PA28M-AK top handle, the QR lock on it is so easy to use and allows me to quickly take it on and off. R5C gives so many options that I decided to use it all the time. Edit: If anyone strugles with 8K, at Super35 crop mode you can shot 6K at 60fps RAW :)

@dustinschmidtphoto 7 месяцев назад

Yep, you get it. This thing is a workhorse. I also love shooting the super35 6k raw! For awhile I was doing that to match up with the 6k raw file from my Komodo. Eventually I just went all the way ‘down’ to the 4k because it still looked so great.

@MichaelRyannz 7 месяцев назад

Super 16 is also great paired with a 100/500 to get you closer to the action eg ⛵️

@@oisinforde1294 Sorry, I believe the issue you're describing is a firmware issue with the RS3 Pro that has not been updated still. If you do an internet search you'll find that R5C users have been complaining about this for some time. No solution that I'm aware of right now.

Love these sort of videos from ACTUAL producers, so many great points. We're using equipment that's light years ahead of what was available 10 years ago and the R5c does what a cinema AND professional camera can do in one body. Grateful for my R5c even though its got quirks.

Bravo. Apart from the professional photography and video capabilities, this camera has a third dimension that makes it unique. Paired with a 5.2mm dual fish eye lens it is a professional VR camera that enables 8K 60p footage. Hard to find a more versatile camera for all three categories.

Wow what a great review man! Thank you for clarifying this. I do primarily real estate and architectural photography and use two R6 MK1. Love them but looking to dump one in search of something with a better video spec and the R5C has been on my bucket list for some time. This closed the deal!

I don’t do much architectural stuff but I imagine the extra megapixels of the R5c would be a big benefit.

I frequently use R5C as a B Cam to Komodo. Can’t even tell the files apart in post, colours match so well. Great video! Reaffirms my choice in purchasing an R5C haha

@dustinschmidtphoto 6 месяцев назад

Yep!! I shoot my R5C and Komodo together on almost every single job. Honestly, any modern digital cinema camera nowadays should be able to match up with any other with just a little bit of work. But for some reason I do think the RED and Canon systems pair better together than most.

Great video. I own a few BMPCC 6K’s that we use for our productions and we absolutely love them but they have a very extreme crop when you shoot 120fps. I was thinking of picking up some R5-C’s for low light live events like indoor sports. ….. My question is , how well does the auto focus track at 120 fps?

@dustinschmidtphoto 4 месяца назад

Great question, I’m afraid I don’t know the answer for you. It’s just not a use case I’ve found myself in. I’m usually doing interviews and broll so I haven’t shot any indoor sports with the r5c.

@zigmej 5 месяцев назад

1,5 years i have been using r5c for pretty much everything video outside live studio - mostly after-videos and music videos. Yeah. Some stuff is frustrating. HDMI, noisy ISO values between 800 and 3200, no open gate video, IBIS, no 1.5x anamorpic desqueeze. But what is there is golden. Bcam for Alexa or Red? Easy. Take care of highlights and you have image that is second to almost none.

@xavierlaiz7486 5 месяцев назад

Hello! It's an amazing review, thank you! I have a question: which adapter mount do you use from RF to PL adapter? I've been looking for one of them with ND filters incorporated, like the EF-RF adapter that you show on the video, which I think that it's very powerful because you don't need to buy a new mattebox, but I'm not sure if they exist. Do you have two adapters? From RF-PL and RF-EF or just one of them? Please clarify that because in the Gear list there's any adapter mount. Thank you for the video, everything was so clear and helpfull.

@dustinschmidtphoto 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the question. I use a Metabones RF to PL adapter. It does not have a built in ND though. There are a few options for RF to PL that DO feature a built in ND but I do not own any of those unfortunately so I'm not qualified to comment.

@devinfloresmedia 6 месяцев назад

The R5C is truly the best Hybrid camera and that’s why it’s great if you don’t want multiple bodies around and the image on both fronts is fantastic. I’m a filmmaker from Stillwater. If you ever need an extra hand on set I’d love to help out. My reel is on my page

@jdpst20 6 месяцев назад

I love my R5c. I don’t do any major production but I mainly document my family travel in photo and video. I shoot with the 14-35mm f4 and 70-200 f4 and it’s a great combo. It’s compact enough while packing a great punch in photo or video mode. If I want to shoot longer video the simple small rig v mount doesn’t add too much heft to the camera and I can easily go a day with USBC power. I can keep this camera easily for the next 10 years and beyond… I just hope canon stays with firmware updates for at least a few more years

@dustinschmidtphoto 6 месяцев назад

The 14-35 f4 and 70-200 f4 are some really fantastic lenses, especially for how compact they are. I also REALLY hope Canon continues firmware updates on the R5C. It should have a lot of staying power.

@jdpst20 6 месяцев назад

@@dustinschmidtphoto that’s exactly why I went for the F4 version. I had the 24-105 but decided to sell that lens and go for both the 14-35 and 70-200 yes I swapped one lens for two but I gained 10mm on the wide end and 95 on the zoom end. The 70-200 is so light and compact and don’t really notice a huge difference between 4 and 2.8. The 14mm wide end too is just awesome too for unique photo and video perspective way wider than 24mm.

@plisskenetic 5 месяцев назад

12:20 - Canon seriously don't get enough credit on how seamlessly they're able to have their mirrorless RF mount communicate almost flawlessly with their old EF mounts especially when it comes to autofocus. When sony switched to mirrorless they totally dumped their A mount, like completely! Whereas Canon was able to still make full use of it all.

@dustinschmidtphoto 5 месяцев назад

Couldn't agree more. I've shot on numerous RF lenses that Canon makes and when I'm using their older EF lenses with their adapter it's basically the exact same experience. No difference in speed or accuracy.

For a guy who’s mostly doing stills and probably not going to do professional video but wants a good camera for RU-vid videos I think this looks like a solid option.

Great question. I’d probably ask you what kind of work are you primarily doing? Corporate? Commercials? Weddings? Etc. How fast do you need to move? Do you work with crews or are you mostly a one man band? Your question is a broad one, so having more info would be helpful when trying to answer that question.

@@dustinschmidtphoto Thanks for responding. I’m looking to do commercials, documentaries and talking-head videos. I eventually want to get into weddings as well.

@dustinschmidtphoto 3 месяца назад

@@DaEssence7 I think a 24-70 is already a great documentary lens actually. Guys like Matthew Heineman have used that lens to shoot many Oscar worthy docs. For talking heads I like fast primes for background separation in situations where you don't know what locations you may have available to you for interview setups and you need all the speed you can get. Something like a 35 and 50 prime to start. Then you can build out to opposite ends of that range and get a 24 and 85. If you're shooting commercials then primes are ideal as well, but possibly cinema style primes, that have manual focus and longer focus rotation, as well as consistent t-stops.

@m77ast Месяц назад

I agree - Im actually about to buy one. I cant see anything else that can compare to it... I have an EOSR - Im a simple guy. I was going to buy a blackmagic camera. But this one here is NEO. Its the one.

@dustinschmidtphoto Месяц назад

I actually moved from an EOS R to the R5C as well, at least from the stills perspective. Also for the added video features, but I'd been shooting a C300 III alongside the R. The video quality of the R5C compared to the R is lightyears ahead in my opinion.

@creativegreatsvisuals 6 месяцев назад

can the c-box work for the c70 canon ? wooden camera ...what do u not like about it ? has it ever failed you ?

@dustinschmidtphoto 6 месяцев назад

The c-box works with any camera that has either a full size hdmi or sdi connection. Its function is to convert the signal from one to the other and provide additional outputs. The only thing I don’t like about it is that it will constantly drain power from the v mount battery when a battery is attached. So you need to unmount your battery if you’re not actively using it. But otherwise I have had zero issues with mine. I love it.

@whateverjustposting 4 месяца назад

If I put an external monitor on this, can I still record internally? I was surprised that my R6 II doesn’t allow this. I like to use externals, so I’d like to know before investing in this. Can someone give me the low down?

@dustinschmidtphoto Месяц назад

You can record both internally and externally at the same time. All of the nuances and specifics of which formats and codecs are available will depend on your recorder and settings. You’ll want to consult the R5 C manual for that.

@baekmedier 6 месяцев назад

I own the R5C , R3 and two C70 my self.. All great cameras, but none of them match perfectly, the biggest problem being the c-log 2 vs c-log 3 colors. it can be matched but takes time in post. For photo i would sell my soul to get the R3 with the cinema menu from the R5c. the R3s auto flicker detect... but also the R5Cs 45 MP, but keep the R3s speed and backilluminated sensor.. (Maybe the R1 will have all that, and i can switch my two photo camera setup out for a 1 photocamera setup) For the video side i just love the build in ND in the C70s and two of them match super easy if you have lenses that match. My setup for the R5C is the ND adaptor to EF and a V mount from FX lion as the one you use, it solved the battery life perfectly. Lovely camera.

@dustinschmidtphoto 6 месяцев назад

I agree with you on the matching. There are some slight differences. If I only have access to Clog3 then I'll shoot that on both cameras, even though I know some people will just interpret R5C footage as Clog2 anyway. There's still plenty of dynamic range in Clog3. Glad to hear from other Canon users making it work across varying bodies, formats and challenges.
