I've watched other creators, and you are one of the few to show live (in the field and on the computer) examples to show off the new features and capabilities and I love it. Specs are specs, and until I get my preordered body I appreciate seeing with my own eyes some of the advancements. Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!! it’s definitely my goal when it comes to camera overviews to talk about the practical applications so you can see how it all really affect your life in your work, so I’m glad you see that!
The high-iso SOC images might have de-noising baked in? the images particularly skin tones have this pasty quality to them (the denoise and upscale is a gimmick of course as software in post do a much better job). Anyways its a nice camera but very expensive compared to the Z8
There is a way to adjust some of that in the SOOC images but I don’t think I had that feature turned on. Though in my experience this upscale and denoise did a better job than LR has done for me in the past BUT that would be a great side-by-side comparison to do. Go with whatever camera works best for you!
The registration of faces is so FREAKING ....just DaAAa'aaang WOW!!!! I didn't know I NEEDED this.... and now... uggghhhh HOLD the PHONE, anyone see those NAILS at 16:04??? Great Video!!
I certainly didn’t see any issues, but I don’t have the camera in my hands anymore to do any sort of testing, but I did buy two of them so once they come in, I will take a look
Wow!!! Great insights for sure. Just found you and and instantly became a subscriber Love the indepthness and the approach as you gave a kind of behind the scene approach and then viewed on the pc. Love the video. Great Job
Do you have a video on your process on how you communicate with clients for their wedding? Your process/system? Would be a great video and incredibly helpful.
@@VanessaJoy Friends lost pictures on failing lexars, they have the worst reviws on amazon, bh and many other sites. They fail like crazy, it s a chinese brand for decades now, they produce really bad quality cards
I'm currently using R6 Mark II. New camera models certainly have many new hardware and software bells and whistles, but later you will have to process RAW files from these new camera models somewhere. Somewhere, that is, at least for the first few weeks under Digital Photo Professional (DPP). It's 2024 and we still don't have a smooth running version of DPP for ARM computers. Super fast hardware limited by super slow software. Personally, in addition to DPP, I also use DxO PhotoLab because it is the best at imitating DPP and runs smoothly on my Apple computer with an M1 processor, although I am not always satisfied with the effects of processing RAW files in this program and the way some of its options work.
Its nice that is has that noise reduction feature. But most people will do noise reduction in post. DXO PureRaw and DXO PhotoLab is the best export to DNG raw and then use any editor you want.
Thank you. It is very informative. I did not want to watch through the whole video. I mostly shoot night and low light events .. so my major concern is noise!
@@VanessaJoy I have finally watched the video in its entirety. Just one last question. Do you know if the camera will allow for rear curtain sync with the Godox flashes? I have the r5 and it does not allow for this with my x2TC trigger nor my V1c flashes.
Another great video! Thank you so much. Awaiting pick up of my R5ii on August 20. Luckily I have great RF lenses and equipment. My main request is about your settings, specifically ...... Picture Style ...... Shutter Mode ........ SUBJECT TRACKING ALWAYS ON??? ...... Subject to detect on Auto or on People??? ......... What Case? ........ Whole Area AF ??? ...... . I would be greatly helped if you could share your settings. Thanks and your work is not only amazing but also inspiring. Many Thanks!
Such a prompt response. Thank you so much. Having Subject tracking always on is where I was unsure. This is such a big help. You are a superstar on the web for us camera aficionados, ..... your knowledge, your skill and willingness to help others is so refreshing. Muchísimas gracias.😊
Probably the only one not asking a question about the camera. Can you tell me which lapel mic you are using to attach to your DJI mic? I had some that created a super loud buzz and yours sound great.
It’s a rode lav mic - if you have a locking connector, they don’t seat well enough and that’s probably the problem. Order a straight connector without a threaded connector
I haven’t been able to use the camera on real job yet as I am waiting like everyone else to get their pre-orders but I can definitely see circumstances where I would use it like same day at it, when I’m photographing a golf tournament that I do every year and need to get in closer on a shot and I don’t ever get to edit those photos because I hand them right off the editor, etc
What do you normally print with for weddings (as well as what book do you use lol)? I've been wanting to get into prints but I was curious what would be a cost effective way to be able to print out photos for clients.
Everyone has been looking forward to the Mark II. It did not make me mad to see you as the model for a change. I currently have the R5 and the R3. Not wanting for anything.
I got it.. :) The shutter comparison was not with the R5 I, was with Nikon Z8..hahaha. Well done. Really glad that Canon still prefer to keep the true mechanical shutter, instead a cellphone experience, like with the Z8.
very nice video, thanks! Can you do a video for the new eye focussing? How accurate and practical it is to use your eye to set the focus point? So far I used always the display touch to set focus points on my R5 with left thumb
Great suggestion! There’s not much to you just go to calibrate in the menu and it has you look at different points on the view screen and you do it over and over holding the camera, both horizontally and vertically and different lighting conditions and it continually learns your eye
so, you look on a subject and if you want to focus where you look you press the shutter button half down? and will there be a circle where you look or is it invisible? and how fast is it? is it lagging(latency) little bit? do you have to look slower so that the cam can react? my older Canon R for example is very slow in setting the focus point using the touch display, the R5 is much faster. @@VanessaJoy
super cool to see the BTS and how the camera works! 32000 is crazy! however, i found a 4th lie... in that promo video you are straight up cheesing in every "photo taking moment" we know thats not how we look 🤣😜
Yes, anytime there’s a new camera the third-party software is like Lightroom and photo mechanic don’t have the information yet to fully read the file correctly. It’s only after the camera has been released those companies reverse engineer file in order to convert the best they can.
Yes you upscale or denoise the raw file and it spits out a jpg. With the boise reduction you can do it at the same time you edit other settings on the raw file, but the upscale I don’t believe you can do the same
Hey Vanessa. Like always, great video! Love your content, point of view, and your sense of humor. I can't seem to find the Lexar pro CFX B card you show in the video with the outstanding read and write speeds. Is this card pre-production as I can't even seem to find it on Lexar's site. If this is officially on sale, could you provide me the link? Thank you, and keep up the great work!
Lexar has just announced at this year's CES trade show that its upcoming Professional CFexpress 4.0 Type B Card DIAMOND Series cards will top out at a frankly unnecessary 3600MB/s read speed, and can achieve up to 3300MB/s write speed. www.digitalcameraworld.com/news/how-fast-is-too-fast-lexars-latest-cfexpress-cards-are-needlessly-rapid
Hi Vanessa, do you know the maximum flash speed sync? I am looking at Canon and BH website, and they don't say it. Is it still in 1/250? In any of the reviews, they mentioned it as well.
So I truly don’t know the answer to that. I was last told 1/250th, but I was first told 1/320th electronic and 1/400th electronic in 1:6 crop. So I really don’t know!
The manual is available now and it shows the R5II has a ‘sync speed priority’ option that boosts the sync speed when using first party flashes. That will get you the 1/320s in efcs, otherwise it’s a shocking 1/125s! ES is 1/160s normally and 1/200 using the speed priority option. According to the manual, we’ll have to see if that matches the production models when we get them next month.
@@VanessaJoy You’re Welcome and while I only got to see a small snippet of the B&H Presentation, You presented Yourself very well, and spoke eloquently. 😊
The light at this fake wedding is a little fake... maybe show us more real situations.Very easy to make these photos when there're softboxes everywhere.
I will, but for campaign videos like this with very secret preproduction cameras I’m not allowed to take it to real weddings and if you’re an actual wedding photographer, I’m sure you understand - If you get a chance to throw your own wedding, you’re gonna light it perfectly. 😜
Love this channel and I know ur getting paid, but this just reeks of paid promotion and doesn’t really shed any light on why a serious photog should choose this over anything from the competition.
Not sure what light you’re looking for but I also wasn’t trying to convince any serious photographer to choose this over the competition. I was showing you what I PERSONALLY thought was cool and what impressed ME as a professional. And no, Canon didn’t pay me or ask me to make this video so might want to look around for whatever it is you’re smelling. 😉 ❤️
I certainly don’t need this camera. However, I got my pre-order in right away with a local camera shop. Shortly after I have this camera I will be selling my R5.
Just a couple of thoughts regarding the EOS R5 MKII Please don't let all this technology stifle your brilliant talent. I hardly ever do any processing.I prefer to leave my photos as shot so that the viewer sees what I and the camera saw when I shot.But when I'm old and infirm and can no longer take photos I can just send the camera out and it can take them for me!
