Thanks so much for your comment! Glad you enjoyed the video and are loving your Mini 4 Pro, as well 😊

Hmm really interesting questions! It looks like there are some rumours of the R6 Mark III potentially coming out near the end of 2024, but given where we are now, it seems like they're shifting to a Q1 2025 release (again, rumours; grain of salt). That said, if you feel you can hold off making a purchase for a couple more months still, then you could have the opportunity to either get a brand new R6 Mark III or to potentially get the R6 Mark II at a heavily discounted price. I believe the R5 Mark II has improved on low light performance compared to the original, but I believe the R6 Mark II is still the best for low light. Hope all of this is helpful! We've also included a couple links to the rumour posts we've read about. Thanks again for commenting and let us know what you decide to do! 😊 Rumours: www.canonrumors.com/canon-eos-r6-mark-iii-prototypes-are-in-the-wild/ Rumoured specs: www.canonrumors.com/rumored-r6-mark-iii-specifications/

We don't currently own either the Goggles 3 or Motion 3 controller, so didn't feel it was something we could speak to in the review of the base drone and the setup we have. That said, they're both compatible with the Mini 4 Pro. Is it something you'd like to see us focus on in a future video? Thanks for your comment! 😊

Yes, the Mini 4 Pro supports FPV mode. We haven't utilized that yet in any of our videos, but it's definitely something we can explore in a future video! Thanks for your comment!

Yes, you'll definitely want to check and see whether it has the remote with or without the screen. There is probably a cost differential there as well, but worth noting. We'd definitely recommend getting the remote with the screen!

Yes, sorry, that is a good thing to clarify for any viewers! You must use a remote controller in some capacity, but we're bigger fans of having the screen being built right in and not worrying about draining battery life on the phone. Thanks so much for your comment! Much appreciated 😊

@ yes, I initially bought it with the RC-N2 but ended up buying the RC2 off of eBay for the convenience.

It's definitely an expensive item; not for everyone, but definitely does offer several great features. Thanks so much for your comment! 😊

Very interesting; thanks for sharing! That's certainly surprising to hear. Did you have an original R5 previously too? Perhaps your sensor may need to be cleaned too?

the peak design tripod can be used with arca swiss plates though

The plate is functional with most ARCA-type tripods, but are you meaning that you can’t use other plates in place of the included Peak Design one?

Ummm that’s incorrect - it works with arcs swiss plates. Just remove the two screws on the side.

If you're just starting out, you may find it more beneficial to get one of Canon's other full-frame mirrorless cameras that are a bit cheaper and instead invest in getting the best Canon RF lenses you can. But if you're just starting out and trying to decide between the R5 Mark II and the R6 Mark II, I'd say the R6 would be the better option for you!

When you say MK6 do you mean the original R6 or perhaps a 6D and will now be upgrading to Mirrorless? Let me know and I'll be happy to offer some specific advice 😊

The R5 Mark II is certainly a better and more powerful camera, but there are plenty of people who still find great use from the R6, particularly if they don't need to spend the extra money for the additional features of the R5. But 100%, on paper the R5 is better! 😊

Great point. For most people viewing, 4K is even overkill. The ability to crop is certainly nice, but given file sizes and the fact that most people view on phones, very few videographers actually need to be filming in 8K at this point. Thanks for commenting! 😊

@@RandyLeBlancPhotography Seems like a great choice! Thanks for commenting 😊

What would you choose R52 or still R6mark2?

😢

@@iabdulhaseeb At this point we’re still sticking with the R6 Mark IIs, but if that changes we’ll definitely make an update video!

@@messengerbagmedia I don't have any gear now .. I used to have 5dmark3 in 2016... But I changed my field as currently working in the restaurant business industry. I want to target small restaurants and small businesses for social media and products photography, as I have planned to give free 30 sec, 1 min reels for Snapchat, tiktok and Instagram. Just to build my portfolio on Instagram and other platforms. Plus I'll do street photography as I'm living an expat in Saudi Arabia. I belong to Pakistan.

@@aaronm5149 Thanks for the comment! Glad you enjoyed. Let us know if there are any other topics you’d like to see us cover in future!

@@Man_Cave Fair point in terms of pricing, but it can definitely be difficult to switch between manufacturers, especially if you have a lot invested in lenses. Thanks for your comment!

@@anthonyhershko Yikes! And we thought it was expensive in Canada. Seems like a smart decision to stick with your original R5. Thanks for watching 😊

@@messengerbagmedia My pleasure!! Great channel!!

@@lengt001 Yep, all good points. The existing batteries also work, but the new battery in the R5 Mark II last for longer, particularly when doing anything in 8K. Thanks for watching and commenting 😊

@@pauladimarco5737 Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed the video!

Thanks for the feedback!

I'm confused basically I have plan of getting R6 mark 2 just 4 months used with RF 24-105 4L and RF 100 2.8 + 256 GB card 300MB/s In 3465 USD. On the other hand R5mark2 is 4265 USD. I also don't have any lens. There are 2 options first is buy the 2 lens with R62 or 2nd option is R52 with Rf50 1.8... later on I'll upgrade my lens 24-105.. is it worth to sacrifice more money. I want 4,5 years future safe. If you're in my place what you'll do?? Is it good offer or suggest me any other option!!

@@iabdulhaseeb i switch cameras ussualy after 5 years. In this point, i would definitevely go to R6 mark 2. I would go to R5m2 only in case you need crop from pictures, and really hi end video. But if you only take photos, definitevly go to R6mII. It´s probably best all-around camera on the market now, and with 24-105 you are nicelly covered. And in case you find out in year two that camera functions doesnt fullfill your needs (i doubt) you can always sell it and upgrade to R5m2 but i dont think this will happen. Update: i switched after 5 years from my 5DSR (50mpx) to R6 mark II even was long considering R5 mark I, as i am most of time real estate photographer, but almost 2x bigger price didnt catch any real explanation to do so. Wish you all good !

@@jiridvorak thank you so much brother.

Thanks for the feedback! Definitely something we’re considering. We also wanted to offer our opinion based on the specs in advance of the release, for people making day one decisions. Thanks again 😊

Thanks so much for sharing! Great insights and glad to hear you’re also loving your R6 Mark II. It really is such a great camera and the cost differential between it and the R5 line is so substantial. Definitely think it was a smart choice to invest that into the lens as you did! 😊

Hi----interested in R6ii--are your hockey shots on a website? If so, can you give me the link? Thanks

I am still sitting with my 5DSR as i am primary real estate and virtual tour photorapher, but waiting for some price drops on R6 mark ii and R5 mi, to move on. So hope this will be in near future :)

The problem is with the lenses and the reach. Specially with wlidlife photography. Shooting with 400 mm and little space for crop. Not everyone can afford the 600 f4. I actually switch to sony some years ago, and the mega pixels is something you neeed to get more reach or simply because you cannot compose perfectly with unpredictable moving subjects. We are blessed with options now, in all the brands, but the problem is they are way too expensive!

@@luispiovani9542 Great point! There are lots of options and being able to make up for a lack of reach with the megapixels certainly helps!

You can buy a new R6 Mark II with the RF 24-105 for $3000USD from B&H right now (www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1733224-REG/canon_eos_r6_mark_ii.html). That said, the RF 100 f/2.8 is around $1100 USD, so seems like would definitely be getting good value for money. What is your plan for shooting with the cameras? Photos? Video?

We’d love to give the R5 Mark II a try for sure! That said, we wanted to offer our opinions on the specs in relation to our uses as media professionals at this point as people consider buying it

Agreed! R5ii for A Cam is a great option with the R6ii B Cam as an amazing second. Having the different options between the two cameras is also really useful, but sometimes when you don’t have certain things 100% consistent between both cameras it can throw you off. At least they changed the buttons to be more in line now 😊

@@messengerbagmedia Agreed. I feel like they will be close enough. And when I need to pair them I will just shoot Clog3 on both. Ps- 4k120 has “Audio” too…game changer for what I do!

Cannot post or edit these files, need capital to view the 8k videos

The interesting thing though is we're paying nearly double for those additional features...you need different batteries...pay a premium for the 'latest and greatest;'..the money saved would go a LONG way towards a premium Canon L lens ...that is some of the debate I'm going through anyway!

@@MatthewPolack Great points, however, you don’t need new batteries for the R5 Mark II; the new batteries just exist to provide additional power particularly in 8K though. Thanks for the comment 😊

The reach of the crop is definitely useful! When we first bought the R the crop was helpful for the extra reach if you didn’t want to buy the lens for that purpose. That said, if you’re upgrading from the R5 Mark I the new sensor could be a nice bonus!

They’re definitely different but I know when we were deciding to upgrade that I found it helpful to see very specific comparisons between two models, even if they were for different markets/classes.

I did that but the pages were stuck together so I accidentally made half an R5 Mark II and half a shepherd’s pie. 😩

@@coasterodyssey That is even better because now you are able to eat your pie and have your camera too.

C-Log 2 on the R6 Mark II would be amazing to have! The better AF plus that are definitely making us think about it, but the cost versus what we have with the R6MKii isn’t enough at this point

@@messengerbagmedia i dp agree, and you can film 6k raw externally so you can achieve even better quality picture. But best part is that R6 is now on sale, its so cheap that its a no brainer!

@@iabdulhaseeb why would you get 24-105, and 100mm? I get it if you want macro, then ok. Maybe it would be better if you buy R6mkii and old EF lens Tamron 24-70 f2.8 G2 + canon 135 f2 amd you still have money for some sigma prime like 35 or 50mm f1.4 (even used ones are fantastic buy). I just bought Sigma art 85mm f1.4 for 650€ and it is fantastic lens.

Thanks for the comment! Glad you enjoyed the video. That’s a really great question, too! I remember when the original R6 came out that was also a question people were asking. The oversampling on the R6 definitely provides a great quality video, but while the lineskipping may be/sound annoying or a drawback, it is only when you zoom in very close that you notice whatever small difference there may be. Maybe we’ll try to make a video addressing this question in future and show some comparisons! 😊

Just buy the r5

@@Yupthereitism that doesn't change my criticisms

@@BrianHallmond you’re buying the wrong camera for the job

If you’re mainly shooting portraits you may not be switching back and forth between photo and video all the time. When we switched from the original R6 to the Mark II I found the change odd for a couple of days and then grew to feel that the buttons were exactly where I wanted them to be

@@messengerbagmedia I went from R6 to R6ii as well. But still think it's not the best location for the switch. Thumb reach is more practical and efficient in my opinion. :)

The extra frame rate may definitely be worth it! Depends on how big you may blow up/zoom in your photos for the megapixels

​@iabdulhaseeb Prioritize the lens option. Always get the best lens you can afford and then pair that with a camera you can afford. R5MKii is a beast, but if you need lenses, get the R6mkii and the lenses. You can always swap the camera out later. The lenses you can keep 5 to 10 years easy. Date the camera bodies, marry the lenses.

@mikedionr thanks .. already bought R52 with RF 35

sadly in my country the price of the new Canon R5 is still almost the same as the price when it was first launched 😔

The price is definitely dropping. Seems like a good combo!

@@dimaskresna2079The R5 Mark II comes out next week technically, so you may find the price on the original R5 has dropped substantially by next month

Awesome! Seems like a great choice, particularly with the focus on sports photography!

For sports photos? I shoot hockey and the R6 II never misses AF. It even nails eye AF through visors and cages with 95% accuracy. And it's probably better in low light than the R5 II. I shoot 12 fps though and never use electronic shutter as it degrades image quality for most cams (even the R5 II). I used to shoot as a pro with the best 1 Series cams that were 10 fps which was insanely fast, so 12 fps is even better. 40 fps is overkill imho. For video though, the 4k120 on the R5 II is great.

Same

Upgrading from the 5D Mark IV to the R5 Mark II would be a big upgrade and having both your cameras be mirrorless may also be nice for you (especially if you do any video). If you’re unsure and are primarily doing photos, you could perhaps think about buying an original R5 secondhand, as that price will drop as people trade in to upgrade. I know you mentioned sports, so that stacked sensor would definitely be good, but just depends if it’s worth the money to you.
