Thanks Manny. So far I have looked at several early reviews and to be honest for what I shoot I can't see enough of feature advantages to warrant upgrading from my R5. I see they have merged more of the R5C into the R5 II so if you are migrating to video/hybrid shooting then the new R5 II might be justified. Maybe a year or two down the road I might get a discounted R5 II and keep the R5 as a backup. I have loaned my 5D MkIV to a friends daughter to help her photography career... thinking back, I could have kept the 5D MkIV and not got the R5 and I would still have been happy. I feel we are often sucked into the hype of new gear and often can waste a lot of money.
@@zegzbrutal It's the difference between the new R5 II price here in the UK which is £4,499 and the trade in price of my current R5 of around £1,600... £2,899. Which means I would be paying £2,899 for a camera with slightly better stacked cmos sensor and slightly better IBIS & AF. But, as far as image quality and getting the shot or more keeper images, it is marginal. The R5 is still a great camera and takes amazing images. I was expecting to see more in the R5 II, especially with AI, a better articulated rear screen (like the Sony) and a better menu system, anti-theft security features. the merging of some R5C video features is welcome but only if you are a hybrid shooter as it does not meet the standards and features of a dedicated cinema camera. E.g. does the R5 II meet Netflix standards like the R5C ?
Wow, I am hearing ALOT of talk about a Stacked CMOS sensor, but nobody will tell me how this camera takes better photos. I get it, great at focusing, but I never had a problem focusing my old r5. Improved dynamic range? Crickets. I am mainly landscape, so maybe this upgrade is not for me. If I am wrong, tell me. Thanks!
People don't talk about eye control enough, it's awesome. I'm left-eyed and the R3 eye control works much better in vertical, but still works fine enough in horizontal. But I welcome it in the R52 as well. It's great, not just for sports but many other things.
@@zegzbrutal how is the n-log poor? It's pretty great. You get raw up to 4k 120fps. The r5's image looks like it is super compressed and has a shit ton of aliasing and moire in the 4k formats that are line skipping, which is every frame rate beyond 30fps. The r5c even is a much better video camera today.
@@gourami7 both really. But today, I'd say Nikon has a much better lens selection as the entire Tamron lineup is available too, some sigmas and you can adapt all e-mount ones.
Thank you. I shoot both EOS R5 and Sony A1 and other bodies. Key question I want the answer to is how does it really compare to the Sony A1? 45-50 Mpixels is the sweet spot for me and now that both have a stacked BSI sensor how are do they compare as a stills camera? That is a head to head comparison I want to see. Take care.
interesting thing is, in China, R5II is offcially 27999 CNY(3850 USD) and second hand SONY A1 being 28000 CNY to 32000 CNY(3850-4400USD) while brand new A1 being 34000CNY to 35000CNY(4800 USD). personally I'd take A1 in that case given the overall ecosystem
Nice Update! Looks like a great all around camera. Sooo many great cameras out there now from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Leica, Panasonic, OM, Fuji. The competition is stiff. At a point where just pick one and go out and shoot.
6:02 Can we please talk about how in 2024 we still have these bar indicators for battery life? Why in the world havent we switched to percent readings for these cameras in the thousands of dollars? I know its a small nitpick but its one that gets under my skin the most.... i hate wondering if my battery is at 28% or at 45% when theres 2/4 bars on the screen
@RiposteThis yeah I got that but I suppose I was referring to the industry as a whole. Like this tech has been abandoned in other devices for 10+ years already
I think the biggest thing that doesn't get much mention are the new cinema video codecs, and also the video menu system. Hahah, funny to see you and Fro together at the beginning. That picture at 2:59 is epic btw!
Hi I shot film for four decades and sometimes Motorsport and take it from me the “keeper” rate is a lot better now with the duds costing nothing compared to a lot of $$ 😀 You had to think ahead , pre focus on a point and just go for it . 😀
That’s almost $6k Canadian, making the Z8 a compatible camera at a better price $500 cheaper). I find canon has priced themselves at the top (between Sony, Canon and Nikon) for both body and lens options
I dont shoot sports my r5 OG is STILL awesome... if i need clog2 I USE the v+ it gives you CLOG2 in pr raw 8k 5k60 IF you have this set up choose clog 3 and cinema gamut and the HDMI sends CLOG2 at least according to the atomos v+
My only complaint about the R5 Mark II is that it's a downgrade from the R5C in ONE category. The R5C has proven that 8K oversampled 4K60p is possible and Nikon had 8K oversampled 4K60p for years but the R5 Mark II still limits it to only 30fps (4K-D Fine and 4K-U Fine are limited to 30fps). The R5 Mark II would be capable of 8K oversampled 4K60p as R5C has proven but Canon seemingly doesn't want to give us oversampled 4K60p to leave it as an exclusive feature for their R5C. Their newest R5 Mark II should at least match everything their older R5C was capable of. Canon gave us 8K oversampled 4K60p and then took it from us again. Cutting features from your newest flagship camera to leave them as exclusive features on an older camera even though their new camera would technically be capable of is a bad look! It's not too late to fix this by bringing 8K oversampled 4K60p to the R5 Mark II with a firmware update though. PLEASE CANON!
You say you would consider the R5ll for your main sports camera. So whats your main camera for portrait work ? How does the R5ll eye auto focus work along with the eye control ? I have been with Sony since buying my A7r lll around six years ago. But i only have 3 Sony lenses. The 28/55 and 85 f1.8. Because i wanted to keep things small and light. And my camera is still in like new condition. But i still own my 5Dlll and all my Canon mount glass. I am wondering how good older Canon mount glass works with the R5ll. Including Tamron and Sigma glass. Which only works ok on my Sony. The R5ll has me thinking about Canon again. But i have been staying with Sony because of top quality 3rd party glass. Even though i haven't bought any of it yet for my Sony. And also because Canon and Nikons top glass is all so big and heavy like there 50 and 85 f1.2 lenses and there 28/70 f2 lens. Anyway i am ready to treat myself to a new camera. But i might still wait to see whats next from Sony. If i bought the R5ll i would start out by adapting my old glass that i barely ever use on my Sony. But then i think with 4000 dollars i could buy a few really nice new lenses for my A7r lll. I wish i could see a color comparison between an A7r lll and A7rV. And also the R5ll. Because recently i have been looking at some of my older images ftom my 5Dlll and really like how they look. So im going to try playing around with my 5Dlll again. Even though the focusing system is outdated and low tec. Sorry for the long rambling comment. Ive been holding back investing big in Sony to see what Nikon and Canon was going to do. But they keep making huge and heavy glass with almost no 3rd party options.

@Mike1984-lc9rhuntil you can engineer a camera as great by yourself please stfu it’s a good photo who cares about your perception of what you think dynamic range is supposed to look like it’s a good photo nuff said
Thank Manny for this video. I would like to add one thing, please. It’s SAD that these days camera manufacturers justify their price increase by adding flashy but IMPRACTICAL features like upscaling jpg files to 180 megapixels! Why don’t Sony and Canon add 32 BIT FLOAT internal audio recording to their cameras? That will help the majority of camera users who are solo shooters. Panasonic LUMIX GH7 already has it. All the pros know audio is worth 50% of their videos. If the audio is bad, then the video is useless.
The One? Isn't it the SECOND one? At best, the R5 II is an iterative improvement. Lots of interesting new features...many of which will not be used by the typical shooter. Upscaling and noise reduction are something I think most will always choose to do in post.
It's impossible to justify any of Sony camera bodies' prices. After recent events (Nikon Z6 III, Canon R5 II & R1 announcement) it's more and more apparent that Sony camera bodies from A7 IV, through A7R V all the way to A1 are heavily overpriced.
Uhhh, it's like 4 years old at this point. Technically, you could get it for way less if you know where to get. Otherwise, it's still Sony's flagship so they can justify its price
@@reina5834 Uhh, yeah it’s a 4 year old camera with no reduction in price. Uhh, the other brands lowered the price on all their cameras. And uhh, the features are the same as the $3500-$4200 cameras for other brands.
Manny maybe you can help. I picked up the R5ii and man it’s really nice. I can tell that it is a bit better then my r5 but today I tried to shoot it in hss with my fj400 and it would not go pass 1/250th. My r3 and my r5 have no problem with hss when I switch on the trigger. I shoot with the westscott. I hope you can help.
Brilliant knowledge…you got your presentation nailed… I’ve learned a lot… not just with the cameras but with how u made this 👏👏👏…we have preordered r52 to go with our r3 and 1dx2…I’m wondering if it completely silent shutter or adjustable like r3 in electronic.. although overall I’d love to have 45mp in a r1 body having used 1 series since04 the price tho in uk 🇬🇧 is scandalous 🤬
Next time I'll be excited for a new camera is when we have a next gen Global Shutter. New cameras nowadays have stagnated... Global Shutter is the future.
Go Phils! The R5 was alreday Jesus in a camera, now we have AI assisted viewfinders and subject tracking, this is amazing and i never knew Manny shot sports?? I mean, you're on the real MLB field
Every model may be "the one" and eventually disappoints, until one tries the GFX, because no matter how good the bells and whistles, image quality reigns supreme.
@magmaz9465 The Blad rocks, but wait till you try the Horseman! Absolutely agree though; it's just this bullshit that every new camera may be the new best that ages pretty quickly.

People are complaining about zero innovation... you can't remember the differences between say the EOS 20D and EOS 30D or the EOS 40D vs EOS 50D. 😂 That was ZERO innovation!
I'm thinking about buying a system camera soon. Since I don't have any lenses yet, it's easier. In general, I would like Nikon (e.g. Z8) prefer, but too big and too heavy. Z6 III (size would be just right) too expensive (still) for delivered performance. Z7II outdated in terms of Autofocus.. R5 MK2 with better size , better weight than the Z8 , and with one of the best Autofocus. For amateurs like me, who don't earn money with it, both would be greatly exaggerated. But buying again in a short time would be even more expensive. Better to buy once and then be satisfied for a longer period of time.
I was wondering the same thing. The artificial limit is the one thing about my R5 that I can't stand. Manny, did Canon tell the influencers not to talk about this? Still, great video.
I don't understand how he's saying the R5 is known for its great dynamic range. It's not at all - it's known for having relatively poor dynamic range compared to other equivalently priced cameras. Did it maybe have very good dynamic range for stills, but not for video or something like that? I don't know if that's possible, but maybe... Otherwise what he's saying seems very odd for a camera reviewer.
I'm really shocked and surprised at the terrible conversations going on here. Half of it seems like Sony lovers invasion and the rest of it just seems like people who don't have a clue about cameras and think of them as iPhones like every single one needs to be revolutionary. The state of these comments is really really sad and I don't really remember seeing this before in Manny's comment section. Some of you guys are way too unintelligent to be in here and even try to discuss these features it is way over your head.
Funny how this is like $2000 cheaper than the R1, but has everything I'd want in a flagship camera. But also, the R5 mkI can be bought for like $2000 less than this on Ebay, so hmmm....
I may have missed it in your video; but does it come with 2nd curtain sync for non-canon external flash? I have to use Sony on some commercial shoots because my R5 doesn't offer 2nd curtain sync with my profoto's.
As a current R5 owner I’m not shocked about Canon not having any creativity for a mark ii. It’s 2024 and that the best they do? At 4200 bucks at that? Nope, not me Canon 😂
@@thefairyfellersmasterstroke My point is this camera isn’t much of an upgrade from the original R5. You need to buy a separate grip with a fan on it to record 4k 60 unlimited? Come on, micro 4/3 has been doing that for years without the need of a battery grip. For 4k bucks it should do what a camera that cost 1500 can do
Many of the complaints people had about the r5 have been resolved with the II: -Poor DR? Markedly improved to 16 stops (?) -30min limit? Gone -Wobbly Ibis? Apparently improved -Micro HDMI? Now a full size -bad video codecs? Now has cinema codecs and an Sraw in 4k -Only Clog3? Now has clog2 -Useless pixel shift? Now useable in camera Not to mention improved speed and autofocus, better ergonomics and the new multi hotshoe. The only downside is the line skipped 4k 60p which I am surprised they couldn’t fix. I guess if you’re looking for a camera to shoot long periods of 8k raw then you’ll be disappointed but for the average shooter it’s pretty much good for everything.
Love seeing Manny and Jared's bromance whenever it pops up.
Great videos ... I am more than happy holding on to my R5 for another 2-3 years at least.
Thanks Manny. So far I have looked at several early reviews and to be honest for what I shoot I can't see enough of feature advantages to warrant upgrading from my R5. I see they have merged more of the R5C into the R5 II so if you are migrating to video/hybrid shooting then the new R5 II might be justified. Maybe a year or two down the road I might get a discounted R5 II and keep the R5 as a backup. I have loaned my 5D MkIV to a friends daughter to help her photography career... thinking back, I could have kept the 5D MkIV and not got the R5 and I would still have been happy. I feel we are often sucked into the hype of new gear and often can waste a lot of money.

It’s impossible to justify the A1 at $6500 still in 2024.
It's impossible to justify any of Sony camera bodies' prices. After recent events (Nikon Z6 III, Canon R5 II & R1 announcement) it's more and more apparent that Sony camera bodies from A7 IV, through A7R V all the way to A1 are heavily overpriced.
A7RV is almost 2 years old@@JosefFoti
Uhhh, it's like 4 years old at this point. Technically, you could get it for way less if you know where to get. Otherwise, it's still Sony's flagship so they can justify its price
@@reina5834 Uhh, yeah it’s a 4 year old camera with no reduction in price. Uhh, the other brands lowered the price on all their cameras. And uhh, the features are the same as the $3500-$4200 cameras for other brands.
If we are not factoring in the lenses and only speaking of the camera bodies, it really is impossible to justify with this release
Can't wait to watch POV videos of people using this camera! (I won't be able to afford it)
Manny maybe you can help. I picked up the R5ii and man it’s really nice. I can tell that it is a bit better then my r5 but today I tried to shoot it in hss with my fj400 and it would not go pass 1/250th. My r3 and my r5 have no problem with hss when I switch on the trigger. I shoot with the westscott. I hope you can help.
Brilliant knowledge…you got your presentation nailed… I’ve learned a lot… not just with the cameras but with how u made this 👏👏👏…we have preordered r52 to go with our r3 and 1dx2…I’m wondering if it completely silent shutter or adjustable like r3 in electronic.. although overall I’d love to have 45mp in a r1 body having used 1 series since04 the price tho in uk 🇬🇧 is scandalous 🤬
I think the r5 is gonna be good enough for me
Did they fix the ibis wobble on wide lenses?
What possible do you need it for? Action cam? 😂
Next time I'll be excited for a new camera is when we have a next gen Global Shutter. New cameras nowadays have stagnated... Global Shutter is the future.
Thanks for the look Manny. Does the electronic shutter have a digital sound now? Like the r6ii?
Yes
Go Phils!
The R5 was alreday Jesus in a camera, now we have AI assisted viewfinders and subject tracking, this is amazing
and i never knew Manny shot sports?? I mean, you're on the real MLB field
better than the r3 for less money it seems? nice! I wont be getting one, personally, but hopefully the r6iii gets a stacked sensor next!
As a R3 owner I will buy this r5 to be my B cam. The R3 is just too good in the hand 😮. The R5mk2 will be my portrait camera
R3 would be better for a pro sports shooter
Can the R5II shoot bracketed exposures with the electronic shutter?
Buy a nikon Z8
Why??
A camera with a pretty average af
@@ghalibsworld because its a better camera in every aspect
might be a great time to buy a Canon 1D or Nikon D6 :)
looks like R5ii is the meta tank . not sure R1 will sell that much
does r5 price drop? finally cam buy r5
Every model may be "the one" and eventually disappoints, until one tries the GFX, because no matter how good the bells and whistles, image quality reigns supreme.
Until you try the hasselblad x2d🤣🤣 They the gfx falls short in image quality…. There is no perfect camera, will never be….
@magmaz9465 The Blad rocks, but wait till you try the Horseman! Absolutely agree though; it's just this bullshit that every new camera may be the new best that ages pretty quickly.
Dynamic range?
For what I can tell, it’s good and that’s something that’s very important to me
@Mike1984-lc9rhcanon I think claims 16 stops? Thats class leading DR performance.
@@MannyOrtiz My only complaint about the R5 Mark II is that it's a downgrade from the R5C in ONE category. The R5C has proven that 8K oversampled 4K60p is possible and Nikon had 8K oversampled 4K60p for years but the R5 Mark II still limits it to only 30fps (4K-D Fine and 4K-U Fine are limited to 30fps). The R5 Mark II would be capable of 8K oversampled 4K60p as R5C has proven but Canon seemingly doesn't want to give us oversampled 4K60p to leave it as an exclusive feature for their R5C.
Their newest R5 Mark II should at least match everything their older R5C was capable of. Canon gave us 8K oversampled 4K60p and then took it from us again. Cutting features from your newest flagship camera to leave them as exclusive features on an older camera even though their new camera would technically be capable of is a bad look!!
It's not too late to fix this by bringing 8K oversampled 4K60p to the R5 Mark II with a firmware update though.
People are complaining about zero innovation... you can't remember the differences between say the EOS 20D and EOS 30D or the EOS 40D vs EOS 50D. 😂 That was ZERO innovation!
I'm thinking about buying a system camera soon. Since I don't have any lenses yet, it's easier. In general, I would like Nikon (e.g. Z8) prefer, but too big and too heavy. Z6 III (size would be just right) too expensive (still) for delivered performance. Z7II outdated in terms of Autofocus.. R5 MK2 with better size , better weight than the Z8 , and with one of the best Autofocus. For amateurs like me, who don't earn money with it, both would be greatly exaggerated. But buying again in a short time would be even more expensive. Better to buy once and then be satisfied for a longer period of time.
Is canon R5 is still worthy to buy in 2024..? Please reply
yes it is
Has the 30 minute time limit for video been removed?
I was wondering the same thing. The artificial limit is the one thing about my R5 that I can't stand. Manny, did Canon tell the influencers not to talk about this?
Still, great video.
It’s been removed, only thing you need to watch out for is overheating in some modes if yours shooting long takes
Now Canon, please transfer the R5 sensor to R6 Mark III and I am set for life.
Is this a stacked sensor? That is a very big deal and justifies the price point.
Will be there any new dummy batteries (a battery with USB or DC cable) for new Canon EOS R5 MK2? 🤔
it wasn't very clear but sounds like they removed the video recording limit?
Yep. It's gone.
It’s limited by heat, battery, and storage capacity now, no firmware limit.
the best feature of the EOS R5 ii is the price drop for the EOS R5.
sensor readout speed in this camera slower than Nikon z8 actually 1/3 speed
I don't understand how he's saying the R5 is known for its great dynamic range. It's not at all - it's known for having relatively poor dynamic range compared to other equivalently priced cameras. Did it maybe have very good dynamic range for stills, but not for video or something like that? I don't know if that's possible, but maybe... Otherwise what he's saying seems very odd for a camera reviewer.
I'm really shocked and surprised at the terrible conversations going on here. Half of it seems like Sony lovers invasion and the rest of it just seems like people who don't have a clue about cameras and think of them as iPhones like every single one needs to be revolutionary. The state of these comments is really really sad and I don't really remember seeing this before in Manny's comment section.
Some of you guys are way too unintelligent to be in here and even try to discuss these features it is way over your head.
Funny how this is like $2000 cheaper than the R1, but has everything I'd want in a flagship camera.
But also, the R5 mkI can be bought for like $2000 less than this on Ebay, so hmmm....
Does the flicker free function work when using the electronic shutter of the R5M2?
Do you think the Canon R5 mark I is still a great value even now the mark II is out? For wedding photography mostly.
The R5 is still absolutely incredible
Absolutely
Seeing as you can get a Canon refurb for $2600 it's almost a no brainer
I recently photographed a wedding ceremony with the Canon R5 and, the photos are absolutely beautiful!!!! Yes, it’s still a beast of a camera.😊
@@gregoryreneau1052 oh my god didn’t know these prices were around: time to look for it!
I may have missed it in your video; but does it come with 2nd curtain sync for non-canon external flash? I have to use Sony on some commercial shoots because my R5 doesn't offer 2nd curtain sync with my profoto's.
Who buys Canon now with crazy prices and no third party lenses , sony is the way forward.
I think I'll wait another 5 years for the r5 III.
Can’t wait for Sony’s answer to this 😌
That handsome gentleman's beard though
It reminds me of Samsung Moon's 🌕 Photo 45MP>190MP
What flash is compatible?
when is petapixel releasing their video?
Already did
Are you a Sony or Canon user?
As a current R5 owner I’m not shocked about Canon not having any creativity for a mark ii. It’s 2024 and that the best they do? At 4200 bucks at that? Nope, not me Canon 😂
Could you tell us what R5 II should have been to be creative? Just curious
@@thefairyfellersmasterstroke My point is this camera isn’t much of an upgrade from the original R5. You need to buy a separate grip with a fan on it to record 4k 60 unlimited? Come on, micro 4/3 has been doing that for years without the need of a battery grip. For 4k bucks it should do what a camera that cost 1500 can do
@@mmpllc77eye tracking auto focusing system which the R5 doesn’t have. Please pay attention to the features and not what you think is expensive.
@@Davitor1 oh yea, eye tracking auto focus is a game changer. How did those ancient photographers survive without it?
Many of the complaints people had about the r5 have been resolved with the II:
-Poor DR? Markedly improved to 16 stops (?)
-30min limit? Gone
-Wobbly Ibis? Apparently improved
-Micro HDMI? Now a full size
-bad video codecs? Now has cinema codecs and an Sraw in 4k
-Only Clog3? Now has clog2
-Useless pixel shift? Now useable in camera
Not to mention improved speed and autofocus, better ergonomics and the new multi hotshoe. The only downside is the line skipped 4k 60p which I am surprised they couldn’t fix. I guess if you’re looking for a camera to shoot long periods of 8k raw then you’ll be disappointed but for the average shooter it’s pretty much good for everything.
Just want to know how was the dynamic range 🤣
once you get into eye control, you won't go back to normal AF system again
Again, why is this almost 1000euros over the z8 ?
Awesome specs..but wow I cant even afford the first model lol, but Nice video..
