That was epic mate! Both are amazing cameras and the results speak for themselves. I can’t believe how adorable those little flying jewels are. Stunning captures! Thanks for sharing bud:)
Peter, thank you, thank you. I just enjoy shooting and buying gear. They are both simply amazing cameras and both fun to shoot. I am going out there soon again but with my D800 to shoot those little gems. A woman who was out there filling the feeders was telling my wife and I that there are a wider variety in the spring..... let me see how many cameras I can take with me LOL. Thank you, thank you Peter!!! 🤗💖🙏
Very interesting video for me to see. I own the R5 and its the best camera I've ever had, by far. Only two things that kill me (and make me consider jumping ship) 1) the R5 OEM grip has some very flimsy parts inside it... mine failed after 5 months... and the darn thing cost $400 !) 2) Canon just does not offer the lens which I really need.... I'm shooting 90+% of the time with the RF800 F11, and taking a LOT of really great shots, which I feel like, on paper, should not even be possible ! In fact, often I add the 1.4 TC which makes it an F16 ! Ridiculous, right ? I was using this combo yesterday in VERY low light, and actually got some ringers. Unbelievable. But your choices are, the 800 F11, for $900..... or, the RF 800 F5.6, for $16,000, with nothing in between !?!? Come on Canon ? How ridiculous is this ?
Anyway, I am SO envious of the Nikon PF 800 F6.3. At $6500, its not cheap, by any means, but I can buy this lens + a Nikon Z9, for $5000 less, than the Canon RF 800 F5.6, and its lighter as well, and so barely darker, that I think most times it would make zero difference.
If Canon doesn't come out with something between their two RF 800 lenses in the next year or two, I could see myself jumping ship.
I completely understand. I WAS a Nikon shooter and jumped to Canon because Nikon was not keeping up with the tech - it felt like they just fell down on the side of the road..... until the Z9 and I was skeptical. The lenses I use on my R5 and my R7 are adapted. They are still amazing and way less expensive that the RF ones. The only RF lens I really like for birding is the 200-500 and that will work with a tele as well. When I shoot my 500 F4 with a 1.4 tele on the R7, I am shooting at 1120 mm at an F5.6 -AMAZING for low light and tons of reach. It is heavy but on a gimbal or tripod, not a problem. If you are looking at the PF from Nikon, I am guessing you are also looking at weight. I really wanted to shoot the 800 but the F11 would not give me the look I want..... and the high of an aperture scares me - old habits die hard I guess!! I will say the older EF 100-400 is WAY better than the new RF version in my opinion. 🙏💖🤗
The R5 was amazing value. Looking forward to the r5ii. Hope it's so great that many upgrade. That way I can maybe get a used r5 for a steal!
I am looking forward to seeing the specs of the R5II and or the R1!! If I may ask, what are you looking for in a camera body as far as capabilities? The R5 is still fantastic, but if it is eye AF and performance, the R8 even without IBIS that I was shooting last week was almost as amazing as my R3. I will be shooting the R6Ii this week. The new and updated specs make some of the newer bodies at a lower price better. Glass is a better place to upgrade....... but I do miss the 8K!!! 🙏💖🤗
Wow John, that 40 year old Nikkor is an amazing lens. Let's talk soon. Good work, an amazing video. Great analysis. Loved it. ROCK N ROLL!!!!
Vahagran!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! These old lenses work so well - I LOVE it. I can not tell you how happy I am I still have all my old lenses - they are still amazing!!! 🤗💖🙏
I keep telling you that Nikon (nor anyone else) hasn't improved on their optical formulas over 100mm for primes since 2008
Great job John and oh man how’s your arms after lugging those two beasts around. Amazing shots as always and it’s pretty hard to choose which camera took what. All I can say is you’re on a winner with either camera. Thanks for sharing buddy 🤙🙏
I am already annoyed by a 2kg lens, the Sigma 150-600C, definately too heavy for handholding/carrying nonstop. I dont even want to imagine how hard these 2 big boys were.
Adrian my friend - thank you. I really enjoyed shooting both - they are both amazing. It was funny that when I started to figure out the cost, they really are about the same if you have to get the lens and body. I think I am in a fortunate position as a gear addict, that I still have the amazing Nikon lenses and only have to get the Nikon body......... What was the most sore was my shoulders, but it was all sooooo worth is. Thank you, thank you........ I dont NEED the Z9........ dont need it....... but my addiction is telling my otherwise!! 🤗💖🙏
Hahaha really cool and you need an adjustment after hauling all that gear. I dont know if I can distinguish between the cameras it just showed me that I am way overdue for an upgrade. 📷 🤳
I need one of those "special" adjustments...... These are really both simply AMAZING cameras for sure. Glad I rented it but upset because now I want it more. LOL. They both have strengths and weaknesses, but both take amazing photos!!! 🤗💖🙏
Absolutely stunning images and close ups John!👏 Carrying both cameras with the big lenses; can you spell hernia?😮 Amazing stuff!!!
Bill, not hernia but sore shoulders LOL. That really was a lot of fun. Both amazing cameras for sure. I am blown away by both! 🤗💖🙏
PS - we were not too far from the car. I could not have gone on a long hike without a LARGE backpack.... and help.
This was thoroughly enjoyable and suitable both for sports and wildlife
NikCan - I had so much fun with the Z9.... it is so awesome. Both are fantastic cameras and both are fun!!!! Thank you!!! 🙏💖🤗
@@JonnyPink65 you had fun is the main thing. If you were here in Ireland the whiskey wouldn't be an issue to ease aching limbs
@@NikCan66 💖💖💖💖💖💖 I had an amazing blast and you are correct - that is the main thing. What Irish whiskey would you recommend???? I would LOVE to try it. 🤗🤗💖💖
Very cool to have choices. I would like to see a more in-depth observation on the difference in af and usage between these cameras.
silvere36, thank you!!! I wish i had more time with the Z9 but as a rental, I shot about as much as I could. Checking my finances and if there is any way I can buy one, I will and will do a more in depth showing the screens on each. I may rent again, but for the price of the rental for that beast..... I would rather just buy. I know it is would be well used! 💖🤗🙏
@@JonnyPink65 thanks John. I held out going to mirror less for the longest time. Z9 sold me. Took 6 months for BH to deliver but it was worth it! You're absolutely right about it being a beast! The precapture and screen grab functions are unique to FX action cameras but it hardly ever gets mentioned. Btw, that spot looks like Kenneth Hahn. I didn't know there was a hummingbird station.
@@silvere36 It IS Kenneth Hahn. Go to the top where everyone parks to get shots of the city with the snow covered hills behind. Instead of going to the left towards that spot, go to the right near the towers. Such an amazing little spot. I understand there is another there much like that. I prefer the standard eyepiece but love to be able to review shots quickly in the EVF. Neither is perfect but both are awesome!!
I had the R6 for about 2 weeks, as much i liked the R6, it was just too heavy and big/bulky for the daily and family stuff. I even preffered my EOS RP over the R6 just because of the added weight. For me the weight was also the dealbreaker, never thought some 100 grams more are THAT DIFFERENT. But yeah, being used to a RP and 50mm 1.8 prime mainly, anything with full frame is heavy.
The R7 is at least something in between, not too heavy or big, still nice grip i wish the RP would have and performance enough for my needs.
And the R7 with an older adapted 100-400 is lightweight and an AMAZING combo!!! 🤗🙏💖
@@JonnyPink65 yes, just for the much smaller price i would prefer a adapted 100-400 and R7 over 100-500 and R5/R6
The R6 Mk2 is getting really interesting but the price is somewhat high, too high
@@harrison00xXx I think that unless I pull the buy now button on the Z9, I will watch for what Nikon comes out with next. I really do love my R5 and R7, so I am going with a want!!🤗
Great video... ( #5 -> Canon , #6 Nikon , I think)
You are correct!!! 💖🙏🤗
I Enjoyed the video sir . Great detail
Thank you Carlos!!! I have been shooting so much, I have been neglecting my riding. Next year!! 🤗💖🙏
Hey John lets hook up bud a big thanks to Vahagan for introducing me. Let's all three connect as we are all into music and photography.
That would be awesome!!! I plan on recording my challenge video this weekend. I carry a tripod a lot of the time even if hand holding for a bit of protection. 🙏💖🤗
Just shows how good the R5 is, that it can hang with the Z9 & even kick it's butt in eye AF
The old R5 eye autofocus is still far superior to the Nikon Z9 with the latest firmware. The Z9 is good but lags far behind. An amazing camera though - heck - they are all amazing. The R7 is even better I think. 🤗❤🙏
Imo the only thing which could let us know the camera you used is the AF tracking
Romain Plagnol - true. If I had set it up to record the screen, you could have seen it but the Z9 in 3d tracking they way I had it set was awesome. There are things I prefer on both cameras - they are both awesome. I had them numbered so I would know which was which. I will go in soon and put a note with which camera corresponds to what number. 🤗💖🙏
BEAUTIFUL!! 😍
robertson rijo - thank you!!!! 🤗💖🙏
Almost went with R3 but only Nikon has such cheap z800mm lens at the moment so that lens alone saved me from the hassle of reselling the other Z lenses and I'd be totally in a loss due to the market around me and in my country is shit 😅
The Canon RF800mm is cheap but a really slow lens....... I would like to rent one of the top Nikon lenses just for fun!!! 🙏💖🤗
I wish i had money to buy one camera in my life 😢
Zunn, I have been at this a long time through good and bad times. Any camera works. What would you shoot if you had a camera? Thank you for letting me share. 🙏🤗💖
