    This is a comparison between the Canon EOS R5 vs the Sony a1. Though there is a major difference in price, I think you might be surprised how well they stack up against each other. There's been a lot of talk about how you shouldn't compare these two cameras, but that talk is wrong. Both of these cameras are stacked and packed with fantastic features. The question comes down to, which one is right for you based on, how much you have to spend and what system you are going to stick with.

    I love what Sony and Sigma is doing with compact primes for E-mount. E-mount has a great support by Zeiss and Voightlander. Also, unless I'm terribly mistaken, you can adapt lots of non-Sony/Minolta DSLR glass on E-mount, including Canon glass. That being said, Canon has some great compact zoom lenses for R. A1 is better but not by much despite all the tech ... and at that price R5 is amazing. So, I'm getting Pentax.

    Nice job Jared, always love you and Steve! As a company that primarily shoots weddings in NY, NJ, CT, we went with the A1. We just couldn't run the risk of a camera overheating during a full Catholic ceremony. Interestingly as far as cost goes (this is what we did)..... the A1 with the Sigma 28-70 f2.8, and Tamron 70-180 f2.8 totals $8,596. The R5 with their 24-70 f2.8, and 70-200 f2.8 totals $8,897. We put the extra $301 towards some pro grade SD Cards. P.S.- Tell Steve, he's my hero. Great job editing.

    It is SO nice to see two stable camera companies competing this closely in the new world of mirrorless systems. Even with the used camera equipment market, it's tough for ordinary consumers to have to go through a change of vendor or even to a different model line in the same company. Like many others, I spend a lot more money on lenses than camera bodies and I keep the lenses longer. Clearly the new mount gives Canon an advantage, as well as its long history of producing top-quality lenses in quantity. Still, it is heartening to see that some of Sony's newest glass is getting rated near the top in quality. That's reassuring for the future.
    I personally think that the mirrorless technological revolution is only part-way over. Both Sony and Canon seem to agree with that. It was a huge relief to see Sony coming out with a big improvement on its revolutionary but now aging A9 stacked sensor. There is a clear issue of cost for stacked-sensor technology. Putting a new version into a flagship camera while you drive the cost curve down makes a lot of sense.

I'm sure Sony is just as good if not better for Image quality, but I love Canon's ease of use, value, solid build and glass. Great video, Jared.

    To help me decide which platform to invest in, I’m comparing the RF glass to the GM glass. Specifically, the auto focusing motor drives. We know the subset of GM lenses with the linear drive system can acquire focus quickly and keep up with 30 FPS on the Sony. I’m assuming all (?) of the RF glass can do the same? With the FPS bar changing every 9-12 months, do we know yet the FPS limits of either the RF or GM glass? I don’t want to invest in glass that can’t keep up with future bodies. Thank you for any insight.

    I shoot primarily A7R4 for stills and A7Siii for video. Nothing on the market right now makes me feel like it would be an upgrade if I switched. Sure, the A1 is a pretty good approximation of those two cameras rolled into one body, but what's the point unless I want to shoot 8K (which I don't).

    @matthewsequoyah2665 3 года назад +1

    Exellent comparison video ! ! What a tough choice. I'm in that position where I need to choose which platform to jump onto.
    The Sony pluses are; The Sony lens, even the GM lens, are cheaper than the Canon R lens so that by the time you add up an equipment list the price point between the Sony system vs Canon becomes a lot narrower. Also Sony makes a 200-600 G lens that makes a lot of sense when you want to move up from the 70-200. Also Sony's 400 flash sync is a fantastic feature too as well as the longer non-limited video recording time. 50 mega pixels vs Canon's 45, and I believe you can switch between shooting full-frame and APS-C which can make your lens more versatile. Having the SAME card slots makes perfect sense.
    On Canon R5 side: The Canon body is cheaper. Also It seems the Canon R glass is 2nd to none and is better than Sony's GM glass. Their 85mm f/1.2 and 28-70mm f/2.0 look killer. The rotating rear screen could be a nice thing to have on occasion.
    What to do, what to do ? ?

The grips for each camera are about the same. If your assuming adding the higher priced Canon grip with ethernet you still would then add the grip to the Sony as well would you not to keep the battery life the same?

    Nikon portrait shooter here for over a decade, using a D800 professionally for the last 7 years or so. I really wanted to stick with Nikon, but just couldn't wait on them any longer to catch up with the competition. I considered the A1, but the thing that pushed me to choose the R5 instead (camera arrives today!) was the glass. I also bought the 85 1.2, and even though that's some seriously expensive glass it was the same cost as if I had just purchased the A1 without a lens. Given how close they match up, it's hard to justify switching to the A1. I'm also considering the 28-70 f2, which if I buy it will make it about the same cost as buying the A1 and one high end lens. Even if I don't end up buying it, it's really cool that Canon is innovating with something like this lens.

      Nikon shooter since the D200, I now use a D810 (studio, fashion, portraiture, nude). I am sad that Nikon is not anymore in the running for the AF capabilities. I have some Nikon hardware and lenses and I am still waiting for a new up to date Nikon mirrorless body. I love the Nikon cameras, color science, lenses and the look and feel. Sony has made great efforts to become the head of mirrorless world. But I think I would never go to Sony. Sony 's hardware is changing too fast, becomes obsolete very often. It must be much more difficult to sell old Sony cameras that Nikon ones. Switching to Canon is neither an option.I hope Nikon will release soon a good mirrorless body (as good as Sony for the AF reactivity) at a decent price. Until that, I still use my D810 with very good lenses.

      @@filetdelumiere5037 I'm with you. I still think Nikon's files look the best out of the competition (and with a 7 year old camera!). Plus the camera designs feel the most intuitive. For example, just where they place the aperture/shutter dials. For some reason Canon makes one of their dials vertical (why?!), and the Sony dials (at least on the A1) felt like they required a good amount of grip to move. I also prefer the Nikon menu system, but I just couldn't wait any longer for them to get the autofocusing corrected.

    Thanks again for such an informative video!
    I'm exactly one of those Nikon shooters for decades and considering switching over to mirrorless... the Z7II is useless and the Z9 probably too expensive, so I'm looking into switching the system. But my tendency goes to the R5 which is just overall for my work the more balanced camera especially with those RF lenses. BTW thanks for the real world/life video of you using the R5 shooting the cartoon artist, which exactly showed what I needed to know... I will still patiently wait till the Z9 comes out and then make my move...

I'll never say I compromised. I'm adding wildlife photography to my hobby. And in this area, the R6 is incredible, the 90D is just ok. So save up, you will not be disappointed with the R6. It's not a compromise camera like the 90D.

If you want the r5 to do everything the Sony can that’s beyond image quality, when it comes to cloud sync and all that you can’t without making the two cameras much closer in price. In reality if you don’t need 8k specifically or the networking features you wouldn’t be buying the a1. You’d be buying the a7riv or a7riii. And both of those are much closer in price to the r5.
