that genuine excitement we all get when we get new gear... love seeing that. I just recently got the R6 instead of the R5 and love it. I didn't do an unboxing video but wish I did lol. Keep up the good work, your reviews on lenses help me in choosing them since I also do wedding photography and videography.
I love the fact that you get excited about the camera, and not just see it as a work tool. I cannot wait to get mine here in the UK! I've spent the last month preparing, CFexpress card, new reader, new RF glass etc... even gone with a new bag! As a wildlife enthusiast, i received my new RF 100-500L last week, it's so light! This combo is going to be a game changer for me in every aspect. Late to the party, but Canon have nailed it. Love you videos and content, your enthusiasm is infectious, keep up the good work.
Thanks Steve! You are going to absolutely love the camera! The camera will be a game changer for you with wildlife photography! I agree with you, half the fun for me is the gear. That's why I got into photography in the first place. And the R5 is really fun! Hope it comes soon!
Aaah so nice to see you so excited to unpack your new camera! Looks amazing! I feel like I’m living vicariously through you right now😂 (since I don’t have the funds to upgrade yet, but I’ll get there!)
Thx for the video dude...just a question: when U use the adapter ring with EF lenses, is there any crop in photography? Plz note that I have 5D mark iii, so the pics wideness is the same in both cameras?
I just subscribed. I love how excited you are! but I am getting the r6. I have a t6i and 7d mark ii. so the r6 will be my first full Frame camera. I am excited.
Congrats on getting your R5 in a timely manner. Unfortunately, I preordered and it will take over a month to get it =/ Meanwhile, I'm subbing to everyone who's pushing out R5 content. It's fun getting to know "Canon's elite" while learning everything about the camera while I wait for mine to ship. Please push out as much R5 content as possible!!
Will do! I have been sooo busy using it I haven't had time to edit/post my videos yet! I have used it at three full weddings now and absolutely LOVE it!!! The camera is insane and a huge upgrade from the mark IV! You are going to freak out. Don't listen to all the people out there ripping on it. It works incredibly! My last to posts on my blog were shot with it. www.shanelongphotography.com/blog
Hey Shane, how do you make the joystick control the AF box? Also, is there anyway to make that box smaller to be more comparable in size to the boxes on the 5d? Want to make sure I'm pinpointing exactly where to focus!
It has all the focus modes of the 5DM4, so you can use spot, single, etc. Or you can use eye af which is super fast and accurate. it will blow your mind.
Anthony Martin thanks for the response but my question is related more so to custom camera settings. I have the R5. When I look through the viewfinder, the joystick does not move the single point AF box like Shane mentions in the video. I don’t see where to set that up. Secondly, that white box is quite big. I’m wondering if theres a way to make it smaller so it’s more precise.
Hey Joel! Go into the orange custom settings number 3. Choose "customize buttons". Scroll to the bottom and select the directional arrow. By default it is off. Turn it on. Then in pink AF menu number 5, you can choose the sensitivity! Which is new to the R5. I do also recommend going to pink AF number 1, and turning on the "touch and drag" focus. I set mine to "enable, relative, whole panel". It is crazy fast and even more accurate than the very good joystick. Hope that helps!
I know the R5/6 are going to be amazing... record limit and no Clog 2 are just silly omissions. Yes I know photo camera , but it’s just not a limitation of the hardware but more of a limitation Canon is putting on the cameras. Just frustrating for 4K. Overheating is fine and a non issue for me.
Shane Long Photography I agree. The EOS R inspires me to shoot more. I know the R5 will be a even better experience! I just wish it wasn’t limited in such weird ways
according to the youtube influencers, this camera is going to ruin all of your shoots as it will shut down on you in the middle of some important wedding function. Thus, your business will be doomed. I just wanted to let you know as you seem like a smart wedding ‘tog who actually knows what he is doing, so it would be terrible to see this fate overcome you for buying the wrong camera!!! I love my R5! I hope you are able to address the nonsense that is being spread around to drive people away from the R5. Good luck.
Anthony Martin It reminds me of the eos r, I pre ordered it and have enjoy using it, never felt any limitations. Now I’m waiting for my r5 to get here, sucks that BH ran out since I preordered it release day and still shows backordered
Hahaha! Right?! All I can say is that I have now photographed a full 10 hour wedding with it and a 1.5 hour engagement session and the camera was an absolute dream!!! It worked flawlessly. Way better than my R and 5D Mark IV. It is a leap forward. So I feel like with every camera release there is always someone out there that isn't happy. But for me, this camera is very near perfect.

Thanks so much! Save up! It will be worth the wait!
Congratulations Shane keep Shining..........bro
Thanks!
Congratulations on a great camera!!
Thank you!
Awesome! It’s like Christmas in August! :)
It is!
Thx for the video dude...just a question:
when U use the adapter ring with EF lenses, is there any crop in photography?
Plz note that I have 5D mark iii, so the pics wideness is the same in both cameras?
No crop for EF lenses! If you use any EF-S lenses there will be a crop just like they were on a cropped sensor camera!
I just subscribed. I love how excited you are! but I am getting the r6. I have a t6i and 7d mark ii. so the r6 will be my first full Frame camera. I am excited.
Thanks for subscribing! You are going to absolutely love the R6! It looks incredible! And welcome to the full-frame world! You are going to flip out!
Good luck with the camera man !Hope one day i can afford it too...for now i am with R :))
Thanks! The R is a great camera! I actually filmed this video with it! Keep saving up! You will love the R5!

Poor baby. It's like Heinz Ketchup-"Anticipation is making me wait"
interesting use for the control ring
Right?! I have been loving it at weddings!

@@ShaneLongPhotography Thank you Shane!
Always love ur videos ... Im into r6 tho
Thanks Erik! That R6 looks insane. No doubt you will love it. Was thinking about buying one myself.
Jealous! I hope B&H gets more in stock so I can actually get my hands on my order 😅
Oh man, it is so hard to wait! Hang in there! I don't think they can make them fast enough right now!
I am jealous myself.

Thanks for the comment! Yeah I actually don't know much about video. But so far for stills this camera is absolutely incredible!

I remember the same thing! Bummer that stock was low! You are going to love it when it finally comes!!!
In Video Mode .... Not in Stils mode !!!!!! :D
