The R7 is supposed to be fully compatible with Ef and Ef-S lenses using the adapter! I wish someone would make a You Tube video on how the R7 performs with many popular EF and EF-S lenses.
If you want to evaluate camera performance, do not use Lightroom (Adobe ACR) to open the raw files. I made that mistake years ago with the Canon 90D. Lightroom did a very poor job compared with using the free Canon DPP4 software to open and convert raw files. DPP4 does a great job. Colors and contrast will be good. Also lens corrections, default noise reduction and diffraction correction will be superior.
You are correct, but DPP is a huge annoying pain in the butt to use, whereas Lightroom is super easy and fast and intuitive. I am not willing to take 8 minutes to do something that could be done in 6 minutes elsewhere, and I think 90% or more of photographers are with me on that. I just wish that Canon would invest more in making the DPP user interface super easy and fast.
@@TomReichner I am not sure what you are doing that takes so long. It takes me less than a minute to make all of the basic adjustments and then convert and save. I let the c&s run in the background while I am working on the settings for the next image file. I save in tiff format and then open in PS for the final post processing adjustments. Also I would not call Lr super easy, fast or intuitive.
Agree, the specs of the R7 compared to its retail price point make it an outstanding value. Of particular use to me is the ability to reassign functions to nearly every button and dial on the camera. That flexibility combined with its autofocus, drive mode and shutter options make it a no-brainer.
Its great seeing all camera brands improving on their products, there are so many options today. Thank you Ted Forbes for all the great content and information you make and share in your wonderful channel!
Really enjoying this camera. Got he R7 and have the 18-150 kit, RF24mm 1.8 macro and the RF 100-400 and i feel like i have all my bases covered for what i shoot.
cool. got my r7 with rf 100-400 ... just trying to decide about rf 24 vs rf 16. Can you please let me know how do you find the24? Are you happy with it?
Rf100-400mm, how about sharp images of birds? I m confused about this and 100-500mm. I m in my 64 years, and worried about weight of lens. Please offer your valuable remark.
I am surprised you referred to the 18-150 kit lens as just "ok". All the images I have seen from this lens on other reviews and web sites have been sharp and stunning.
Got my R7 last week with the 18-150mm kit lens. Started trying out my EF and EF-S lenses, which all have image stabilization, and was spooked by the absence of the menu option for stabilization with them, while that option is there with the kit lens. So I searched the pdf manual for "stabilization" and found that that option is only displayed if the lens doesn't have an IS on/off switch. Yes, the R7 does use their IS together with its own IBIS - they just figured that an onscreen switch was unnecessary.
Wow! This video was super informative! I'm currently looking at making the jump from DSLR to mirrorless and trying to determine if the R7 would be a good fit for me because I think the R6 Mark II is overkill for what I typically shoot as a hobbyist. I think you do a great job of outlining the specs, pros and cons, and design of this camera! Thank you!!!
PS I don't have any L glass to compare it to, but I found that the kit lens was amazingly sharp hand-held at 150mm. I casually shot a page of sheet music thirty feet away and it looked great!
I use my R7 for wildlife photography. I have been very happy with the performance and IQ. I agree I like the thumb wheel. I find it very easy to use. I bought an extra battery but I rarely have to use it. The fewest shots I have gotten off a full charger is just over 1900. I have been impressed with the low light ability. It is much better than my M6 MKII.
@Lathrop Media Less noise. Even though the sensor has the same amount of pixels they must have reworked the sensor or the onboard processing to improve the noise. And, the IBIS does allow you to use a lower shutter speed as well.
i was very tempted to shoot canon again just bc of the sheer versatility of the r7. I just wish there were some wider RF mount glass to go along with that unlimited 4k recording.
@@unknownKnownunknowns not perfect focus though is it, it's just a bit slower, and always a little softer than RF glass. I'm still holding out for the new apsc or wide zooms on the r7
All RF lenses work the same way an EF lens works on an EF-S mount. You can get a wider angle of view from an RF or EF lens by using a speedbooster. There are several videos up here on turning an aps-c camera into a full-frame that way.
What exactly is WRONG with Canon? Why in the world can't they allow their flashes to use the SAME BATTERY AS THEIR CAMERA?????????????????????????????????? WHY?????? Save the Earth and all?!!!
I was with this camera and a Canon RF 24-240 lens on a 2-week trip. I took more than 2500 pictures and some video. Not a single defective picture. The camera never failed.
I've been super interested in how well the Sigma 18-35 works adapted to this R7. No one has done an in depth look at it, other than for video, but I think there are a bunch of people who would think of this as a great camera if it worked really well with that lens.
I got my R7 last week and have been testing with my Tamron 45 1.8, Tamron 100-400, Canon L lenses, and my two Sigma lenses: 17-70 2.8-4 and 8-16 4.5-5.6. The Sigmas both seemed to work as well as they did on my 80D (the 8-16 is an older Sigma design, I believe from about 2010-2011). I haven’t fully tested the eye AF performance on the two Sigmas, but I’m not expecting issues especially with the 17-70 since the two Tamrons had no real issues…surprising given that I could never fine-tune the Tamron 45 well enough on my 80D. I haven’t updated any of the Sigma/Tamron lenses with their docks. Not exactly the 18-35, but I believe that’s a more recent design anyway, and I’m pleasantly surprised the Tamron/Sigmas work as well as they do. I’m using the control ring adapter. Hope that helps.
I am a stills photographer . Have had the R7 since it came out ( pre ordered ) and find that images are very sharp . eye focus is excellent . Have been a freelance photographer since the 1980,s . Just love the R7 . Just wish that Canon would make a stills camera like the R7 with NO VIDEO .
Just because it can do video doesn't mean you have to use it. I don't believe that a camera without video would be substantially less expensive, and the marketplace seems to favor hybrid cameras.
Great summation of this cool little camera, Ted. I'm wanting to get a dedicated wildlife body (guess it's time to upgrade from my 40D). I rented an R7 for a week hoping I'd hate it and save some money by getting a nice used 7D Mark II. Alas, I didn't hate it and am now waiting for B&H to actually get one to send me. It certainly didn't help that the animal tracking helped me get a shot of rushing western grebes I've wanted for years! Keep the great content coming!
My R7 will be here this weekend. I have access to an R6 through work, thus I decided to take the savings and go with the R7. I have mostly been a full-frame shooter so a little worried about going back to APSC, but then again, the Canon 80D is still my favorite camera I have ever owned (prolly a little sentimental since it was my first big(ger) body DSLR, but I preferred it over the R6, 6d II, A7iii, A7C, X-E4, A6400 and A6600).
I’ve been loving my R7 for a while now. Already had an idea what to expect thanks to shooting on the 90D and printing those photos. This hasn’t disappointed at all.
@@AlwaGordon If video is your thing, when comparing the two cameras, get the R7. As flexible and nice as the 90D’s vid options are (especially when recording externally), the R7 blows it out of the water.
As always a very engaging presentation! I agree that, at the price point, the R7 is great value for money. That said, I wish that they had called it the R70 or some such for two reasons: Canon in my area have told me it is really a replacement for the 90D, which was not a replacement for the 7DII. Giving it a different name would leave me to live in hope of a 7DII replacement as a R7. I say this as a wildlife photographer who wants to be able to have a pro-level body that offers a high-end sensor which takes advantage of the crop effect for telephoto work. There are a bunch of things missing to make this a true inheritor of the tile: Inferior weather sealing - pros can't just pack up and go home if the weather turns to custard. BSI/Stacked sensor - this is significant as it creates a choke point in terms of the data path. It would make the camera much more able to handle high-speed e-shutter without choking and reduce sensor creep. A bigger buffer to allow one to shoot for more than about 1.2 sec at 30FPS in RAW. Using CF-Express type 1 cards that offer high speed performance, yet are backwardly compatible to SD cards A battery grip - for greater capacity, the portrait controls and to balance heavier tele lenses I am on the fence as regards the new location of the control wheel, but if one is using this as a second unit, it could be a bit disconcerting. So, again, this is a great camera at its price point and for its intended market, but I would have paid for a true 7DII replacement - I shall live in hope...
I think you've successfully itemised every reason I didn't buy this camera and I agree it's not a 7 series camera. I've sold my Canon gear and changed to an OM-1 as Canon has turned its back on those that want a high spec crop replacement for the 7DII
Hi, thanks. Your reviews are so good, especially in the way you cut through to the main points. I bought a Fuji XT5 the day it appeared in Ireland, and while I like the camera, I find the tracking autofocus is giving me a lot of blurry pictures, like when I tried to photograph rowing on the Liffey a few days ago! I tend to go for APSC cameras rather than full frame. I like compactness and I like the additional reach they give me. Looking for something that feels good in the hand and has state-of-the-art autofocus, is there any sense in me trading in for the R7? I know it means getting new lenses, but I will continue to use the Fuji system for some of my photography (I have an XT30, which has better autofocus than than XT5).
Hi, thank you for sharing valuable information. I am a teacher, and tend to film while I am writing on the whiteboard. Do you think R7 can be a good choice? Or may be you suggest the other one?
I main an 80D for weddings and all my maternity shoots., Adding in the extra card slot, better video specs, this is just an amazing upgrade for me. My only issue is higher megapixel. How does the higher megapixel work with ISO ranges around 2000?
I'm starting the think the APS-C department at Sony has gone to sleep. I'm seriously thinking of jumping back to Canon as at least they still seem to take photography seriously, as opposed to just vlogging.
What about graininess? When I take pictures with my 2000d at ISO 1600, my pictures are very grainy. Is that better with the R7? This is the only thing that has yet to convince me to buy this camera.
I really enjoyed this review, Ted is a good presenter and gave a fair and balanced review. I'm retired now from commercial photography after 40 years but still take a lot of pictures and have been a Canon digital owner since the 10D. I moved from the Canon 5Ds to the R when it debuted and for portraits, landscapes and general travel love it. I have been waiting for a mirrorless upgrade for my 7 year old 7D MkII and am planning to buy the R7 when they are back in stock. I'm disappointed not to have a battery grip as I like that with my big hands but also for long telephotos, just feels better but change is good sometimes. You have to weigh the pros and cons. Had to smile when Ted mentioned all the small sized Canon primes he has as I own them as well and really love them.
I went in the opposite direction. And bought me a couple of new old cameras. These are the Nikon D700 and the Fujifilm X100s. Old cameras aren't bad either. I just love the image quality of theese two..
Great Review. How does this compare to the Canon 90D my current camera? Would you say it's better or about equel? I've been wanting Canon to make a camera mirrorless camera with simular price point and features of the 90D. I'd have to say the R7 seems to be that camera.
a few questions. context: I now have the 750d or T6i for 6 years now. looking for an upgrade. mainly do event photography but haven't gone professional (as in earn money from it yet. I also have the kit 18-135, efs wide 10-18, ef 50 1.8. I'm looking for an upgrade but not planning to sell any of my gear as I can covert and use and also use a backup cam. Should I get the r7? I really like how fast it is and just how similar it feels ergonomically to my 750d. I'm really leaning towards the r7 coz of the price and AF. other stuff that I would really use is auto level and stabilisation, clog, dual card slots. Should I get it with the kit 18-150 with the r7? Or should I use that money instead and get body only? I can convert my 18-135 using an adapter, but I'm not sure if this will limit my AF and AF speed. Should I buy a speed booster? just yeah should I?
Shooting horse racing with the r3 i find that panning at a fast speed gets difficult when the electronic shutter has that "preview" look to it. does the r7 have a stutter when panning?
thanks for the video! how easy would you say the R7 is to figure out how to use as a noob who's buying the camera for work as a youtuber? i was considering the R50 because i know a lot of youtubers go with it as a first camera, but i don't like how flat i often find the images to be (which i assume is attributable to the image quality, but please correct me if i'm wrong!). it also seemed like the R50's autofocus wasn't as great as i'd ideally like for vlogging, etc. i'm pretty set on the R7 i think at this point, but was curious about the learning curve.
This camera seems great. As someone who is tempted by the cheap RF mount cameras like the EOS R and RP, but is disappointed by their lack of IBIS and solid video features I might just have to go for the R7. It isn't full frame which is unfortune - I'd love to use lenses like the 50mm f1.2 RF, and there isn't a APS-C equivalent at the moment. Otherwise this camera is close to perfect, I'd love to have one.
@@medhanshtripathi1488 sure you can, with a mount adapter, but it results in heavyer, bulkier and outdated glass on a modern body. I tried and it is quite uncomfortable
Just positives and no negatives. Not a trustworthy review. All cameras have some sort of flaw (negatives). This looked more like a sales pitch from Canon IMHO.
@@Halfhoff thanks dear, they should because using the full frame lenses might make sense only for the one who's already invested in the full frame not for who is just getting in the system 😉
Hi Ted, I've been thinking about this camera vs full frame, I think full frame is what I should aim for for various reasons, but I'm still a bit confused about the difference between APS-C and full frame. Is it mainly that the image is cropped in APS-C and that full frame can take better photos in low light conditions?
Basically yeah. So a 50mm on APS-C will have the equivalent field of view as a 80mm on a full frame, as 50*1.6=80. But it's the same for the aperture. APS-C adds a stop of light to the f number, so a f2 on APS-C is equivalent to a f2.8 on full frame. By this logic, APS-C cameras are simply not able to capture as much light as full frame, so yes, they will be worse in low light situations.
Lenses is the biggest problem for Canon here yet again and no, adapting EF glass is not the same. Why release great camera bodies without the glass. I do not get it...
I shoot and R5 and R7 with a mixture of EF and RF glass and notice very little in terms of difference. The EF glass focus motors are a little bit slower but it’s only occasionally noticeable.
Mine will go back to the store after 10 days. Was shooting on holidays and it just shutdown by itself a few times (not filming). It took a few on/off cycles before it came back to life. Also in AV, the focus spot always revert to the bottom left at each power cycle so it becomes quite annoying if I forget to recenter it each time. Too bad that where I was the only BIFs were seagulls, there are some municipal parks for other bird watching but the nearby landlords give you a hard time if you walk too close to their lot.
Yep LuMi Naire I’ve experienced the random shutdowns a couple times as well. Took removal of the battery and reinsertion to correct. Still keeping mine but hopefully this will be fixed in firmware.
Thanks for a compact but fare review. I'm looking for a more down to earth tracking focus comparison to Sony and yours comes as a surprise considering all puff pieces I see around. Although it's only a few words w/o any evidence it feels somehow more informative anyway.
R7 puts the most video high specs into an apsc camera so far. Price wise (in the ball park) as competitors for photo and video hybrids in full frame are Nikon Z5 with IBIS, and Canon RP or the R (but cropped 4K), plus the Sony's you mentioned. The R7 has a lot of speed advantages over those mentioned, high fps in photo, great tracking, and very good video specs from downsampling.
Nice look at the camera now that it's out. I can't manage to do a transition to RF from EF-M right now but the R7 is a very good sign for future options. Especially with video in my case.
I hope there will be. I was very apprehensive when I ordered the R7 but now that it has been in my hand, I’m not concerned about the lack of BG. My hand fits in the grip better than it does in the R5 (with the 5 my pinky finger would end up under the camera so I got a BG for it). That issue isn’t happening for me with the 7
It gives you 30fps rolling shutter effect photos for 2 seconds before the bufer gets ful. Mechanical shutter sucks, they must have dug it out of the past and slap it on R7 and it gives you all of 3 seconds of shooting like AK-47 sending vibration blur all over the image. The result of mixing old tech with new tech = rubbish. You want jack of all trades master of none camera - R7 is your baby. Why people are buying it is beyond me. Canon exploited the dread of mirrorless 7D to suck people's cash and make record profit of reselling old tech. Now they will likely fix all that in R7 Mark II, but im not waiting another 5 years for it.
What do you think about speed-boosters for canon r7. I hear the canon has some purple fringing but the 2 viltrox s.boosters seem good? There aren’t any reviews for photo and none comparing the canon to the 2 viltrox. Now canon has good crop bodies but limited crop lenses. So it seems like a possible work around but I’d like to be sure before recommending to friends looking to get into photography. Reviews please? 🙏
RP owner since about a year (super happy RP owner!) R6 since yesterday: Yes, a VERY GOOD allrounder camera... but for my needs i didnt saw enough improvements compared to the DOWNSIDES: -20 MP... since i sold my APS-C DSLR i missed already a lot of pixel density for astrophotography. WIth just my RP it was already bad for deep sky, but the R6 will perform even worse, just slighly but worse - price/performance ratio seems not right, reviews say how good and awesome and that its worth it... but 1) Fuji AND Sony can deliver more for less money and 3rd party lenses aviable, 2) the price is not right! I paid 2nd hand not that much, but the MSRP is MUCH TOO HIGH. - line skipped video, overheating, common, cannon.... you cannot do this And soon R7 owner to replace the R6. I will also keep the RP: RP and R7 sounds for my needs much more practical and universal than the R6 for a similar price point. The RPs iso performance and good overall package is all i need for most of the time and the R7 is the dedicated wildlife/sports body. In the right conditions and my usecases... each camera will outperform the R6 i guess and i always have a backup body if any camera ever die or another problem occurs. Its anyways very hard to get rid of the RP, the R6 is much heavier and less "convenient" for my taste, just for 120 fps video and animal eye detect its not worth the extra size and anything else i dont really appreciate/need that much. If the R7 perform better than expected in high ISO and i could probably learn to live with permanent APS-C crop again, i can still sell the RP. I dont have it yet, but i am pretty sure i will love it much more than the R6. The R6 is sadly a good example of a very good allrounder, but also the example of the "Allrounder"... good in anything, but for most more dedicated/spezialized things you miss a few interesting features here and there. RP will be my travel/portable/allrounder Camera, R7 for video, wildlife and astrophotography on the telescope.
Something I was hoping to see/hear was Ted's thoughts about the physical makeup of the kit lenses and the RF-S lenses in general and their plastic mounting flanges. That worries the daylights out of me in terms of durability.
Hi Ted, thank you for this review. It does help for me to decide but not enough ...yet. I'm looking for a used camera and am torn between the Sony A7 III, Canon R6 en R7. I mainly use it for various situations, mostly during daytime. I own a A7r II but it's AF is well could be better. How about the dynamic range and recovering shadows and highlights? Any advise is welcome. Greetz Ab
Is the image quality same, or maybe a bit better of 90D? I would buy 90D for some Years, but i heared from many Users focus issues with this camera over the Optical viewfinder, so i buyed not! Now i looked interessting to the new R7, when the Focus is now better as on 90D, then i would choosen this Camera! Nice review from you!
It seems unlikely that Canon will make a lot of APS-C glass for these mirrorless new bodies, and full frame RF glass is astronomically priced. With no third party options, these seem like dead ends. I'm looking at changing systems, for the glass.
Do Canon make any Mirrorless or DSLR with just a tilt screen?.... it's why I've never ever picked one up because to me, flip screens are a cardinal sin in photography, just my opinion.
A little more than a month in and I'm really loving the step up to the R7 from my SL2. The kit lens is too versatile as a walk around lens. I wish I could leave it at home, but for hiking it just does too much with acceptable IQ and is really lightweight. I want to love the RF 50 more, but my Tamron SP 45 still produces such good results I'll deal with the weight of it when I must. Being able to adapt all of my EF-S lenses is helpful, but I still want the 85...and 35...and now the 24.
I've started thinking about replacing the same camera you did and so far the R7 is on top of my list. I did originally assume I'd move up to full-frame but when taking price and camera development into consideration, I'm more tempted by a newer model than an older one at a bigger discount. I guess most people upgrading from the SL2 to this will be more than happy either way, but still.. How are you finding it now that you've used it a bit longer?
@@markshirley01 not really the f/stop is a mathematical formula of the focal length divided by the entrance pupil diameter eg my EF400mm f/2.8 has an entrance pupil of 143mm i.e. 400/2.8 = 143 Doesn't matter whether it's mounted on my aps-c 7Dii or a full frame camera. Of course although the f/stop and exposure is the same the resulting images will be different as will the field of view. Also the sensor size doesn't affect the focal length either just the fov because a crop sensor is effectively cropping the image by gathering a much smaller area of the image circle. In the same way the crop sensor is cropping in camera so the amount of light gathered is much less eg a 1.6x crop sensor has only 40% of the area of a 35mm full frame so it's only gathering 40% of the light but that doesn't change the f stop ratio in any way. Cheers Noel
Really nice, concise review. I especially enjoyed comparing it to the other cameras in the same price range. I was wondering if you have any plans for your presets to come to Capture 1? Thanks for the insights!
It seems like the professional apsc canon camera for video is going to stick with the C70 unless they finally come out with the forever rumored, probably never gonna happen C50. But one can dream. Please something less than $3000! Lol
Good One Sir..I love it..one of my fav camera in canon..I am planning to buy one sir..I think I will buy soon..I searching job..I am planing to move to some new place sir
What are the memory cards that you use for the R7? I just got mine about a month ago and I have been shopping around for the best UHSII cards to use for it .
Excellent review! Just a suggestion on your "bundled offerings", you should provide some price incentive to your followers. As is the price of buying your presets packages individually x 2 is exactly the same cost of buying 1 bundled package, there is no incentive to buy the bundle upfront. Maybe individual preset package = $29.95 and Bundle = $49.95?
I made the mistake of preordering with a loser local dealer on the 25th May I spoke with them today they have their very 1st one coming in next week but it's for the guy before me it seems I'm only second but I feel its only because they're getting 25% commission on stuff that guy is selling through them. THey were saying I'm first till a few weeks ago. I decided not waiting any longer I'm either going for the XH2s or OM-1. It's a bit more but as you say Canon don't seem to treat APSC as pro like they used to in the days of 7DMKII. Although the R7 is way above a 7DMKII.
Nearly a year and I've been building my RF lens collection. Now that I have the 16mm f/2, the 24mm f/1.8, the 50mm f/1.8, and the 85mm f/2, I sprang for the 70-200 f/4 L and that one is amazing, if significantly larger and heavier than the others. (Haven't used the kit lens in a long time!) Covered the apartment complex's NoTalent Show entirely with the 24mm and discovered that I could "zoom" in my editing program by cropping and got shots with the angle of view of a 135mm lens on a full-frame camera that looked very nice. Amazing how good a 4 Megapixel crop from a RAW file can look!
Thanks Ted for a very detailed review, I really enjoyed hearing your balanced opinion on this camera. Do you know if there is a battery grip option for the R7? Thanks
Unfortunately, Canon will not make battery grips for the R10 or R7, they said. So one can only hope that third-party manufacturers do this in the future. Hope this was helpful.
Thanks for that. I guess it will depend what contacts there are for an external grip to use. Just the battery contacts would I guess allow you to increase the battery capacity, but may be not a vertical shutter button or other controls.
Hi Ted, would be interested in your take on Canon limiting 3rd party lenses on the new R mount system - as an ametuer photograpther I need to really justify every lens I purchase and when considering what is available in Nikon and Sony, I think Canon may have dropped the ball - love to hear your take.
Just ordered my R7 last night and I haven't the slightest clue about Photography😅 here goes nothing.
The R7 is supposed to be fully compatible with Ef and Ef-S lenses using the adapter! I wish someone would make a You Tube video on how the R7 performs with many popular EF and EF-S lenses.
As a bird photographer, I did not buy the R7 for budgetary reasons. I bought it for the extra reach that you get with an APS-C sensor!
Same for me as well. I chose this camera over the R6II for that very reason.
Really!!! Why@@lanep4322
If you want to evaluate camera performance, do not use Lightroom (Adobe ACR) to open the raw files. I made that mistake years ago with the Canon 90D. Lightroom did a very poor job compared with using the free Canon DPP4 software to open and convert raw files. DPP4 does a great job. Colors and contrast will be good. Also lens corrections, default noise reduction and diffraction correction will be superior.
Thanks!

You are correct, but DPP is a huge annoying pain in the butt to use, whereas Lightroom is super easy and fast and intuitive. I am not willing to take 8 minutes to do something that could be done in 6 minutes elsewhere, and I think 90% or more of photographers are with me on that. I just wish that Canon would invest more in making the DPP user interface super easy and fast.

@@TomReichner I am not sure what you are doing that takes so long. It takes me less than a minute to make all of the basic adjustments and then convert and save. I let the c&s run in the background while I am working on the settings for the next image file. I save in tiff format and then open in PS for the final post processing adjustments. Also I would not call Lr super easy, fast or intuitive.
Agree, the specs of the R7 compared to its retail price point make it an outstanding value. Of particular use to me is the ability to reassign functions to nearly every button and dial on the camera. That flexibility combined with its autofocus, drive mode and shutter options make it a no-brainer.
Its great seeing all camera brands improving on their products, there are so many options today. Thank you Ted Forbes for all the great content and information you make and share in your wonderful channel!
Really enjoying this camera. Got he R7 and have the 18-150 kit, RF24mm 1.8 macro and the RF 100-400 and i feel like i have all my bases covered for what i shoot.
cool. got my r7 with rf 100-400 ... just trying to decide about rf 24 vs rf 16. Can you please let me know how do you find the24? Are you happy with it?
Rf100-400mm, how about sharp images of birds? I m confused about this and 100-500mm.
I m in my 64 years, and worried about weight of lens.
Please offer your valuable remark.
I am surprised you referred to the 18-150 kit lens as just "ok". All the images I have seen from this lens on other reviews and web sites have been sharp and stunning.
Got my R7 last week with the 18-150mm kit lens. Started trying out my EF and EF-S lenses, which all have image stabilization, and was spooked by the absence of the menu option for stabilization with them, while that option is there with the kit lens.
So I searched the pdf manual for "stabilization" and found that that option is only displayed if the lens doesn't have an IS on/off switch. Yes, the R7 does use their IS together with its own IBIS - they just figured that an onscreen switch was unnecessary.
Great video... Thanks... And there's an option to pick up an adapter with/without a speedbooster that will get it very close to a full-frame sensor...
Wow! This video was super informative! I'm currently looking at making the jump from DSLR to mirrorless and trying to determine if the R7 would be a good fit for me because I think the R6 Mark II is overkill for what I typically shoot as a hobbyist. I think you do a great job of outlining the specs, pros and cons, and design of this camera! Thank you!!!
PS I don't have any L glass to compare it to, but I found that the kit lens was amazingly sharp hand-held at 150mm. I casually shot a page of sheet music thirty feet away and it looked great!
I use my R7 for wildlife photography. I have been very happy with the performance and IQ. I agree I like the thumb wheel. I find it very easy to use. I bought an extra battery but I rarely have to use it. The fewest shots I have gotten off a full charger is just over 1900.
I have been impressed with the low light ability. It is much better than my M6 MKII.
What lens are you using it with for wildlife.
@@annacoates3012 I use the Sigma 150-600C as my primary lens.
@Lathrop Media Less noise. Even though the sensor has the same amount of pixels they must have reworked the sensor or the onboard processing to improve the noise. And, the IBIS does allow you to use a lower shutter speed as well.
Where do you even go to capture wildlife, deep in the woods? or like idk
i was very tempted to shoot canon again just bc of the sheer versatility of the r7. I just wish there were some wider RF mount glass to go along with that unlimited 4k recording.
All of the EF lenses fit and focus perfectly with the adapter
@@unknownKnownunknowns not perfect focus though is it, it's just a bit slower, and always a little softer than RF glass. I'm still holding out for the new apsc or wide zooms on the r7
@@tankerbruja understandable. Hope for all of us shooters, we get the lenses at good prices
All RF lenses work the same way an EF lens works on an EF-S mount. You can get a wider angle of view from an RF or EF lens by using a speedbooster. There are several videos up here on turning an aps-c camera into a full-frame that way.
@@tankerbruja how do you know that it’s softer and slower?
What exactly is WRONG with Canon? Why in the world can't they allow their flashes to use the SAME BATTERY AS THEIR CAMERA?????????????????????????????????? WHY?????? Save the Earth and all?!!!
I was with this camera and a Canon RF 24-240 lens on a 2-week trip. I took more than 2500 pictures and some video. Not a single defective picture. The camera never failed.
CANON R7 VS FUJI XT5 / XH2 ?
I've been super interested in how well the Sigma 18-35 works adapted to this R7. No one has done an in depth look at it, other than for video, but I think there are a bunch of people who would think of this as a great camera if it worked really well with that lens.
Far reach films did a review with that combo
I got my R7 last week and have been testing with my Tamron 45 1.8, Tamron 100-400, Canon L lenses, and my two Sigma lenses: 17-70 2.8-4 and 8-16 4.5-5.6. The Sigmas both seemed to work as well as they did on my 80D (the 8-16 is an older Sigma design, I believe from about 2010-2011). I haven’t fully tested the eye AF performance on the two Sigmas, but I’m not expecting issues especially with the 17-70 since the two Tamrons had no real issues…surprising given that I could never fine-tune the Tamron 45 well enough on my 80D. I haven’t updated any of the Sigma/Tamron lenses with their docks. Not exactly the 18-35, but I believe that’s a more recent design anyway, and I’m pleasantly surprised the Tamron/Sigmas work as well as they do. I’m using the control ring adapter. Hope that helps.
I am a stills photographer . Have had the R7 since it came out ( pre ordered ) and find that images are very sharp . eye focus is excellent . Have been a freelance photographer since the 1980,s . Just love the R7 . Just wish that Canon would make a stills camera like the R7 with NO VIDEO .
Just imagine, a camera with just manual and aperture priority. NOTHING else.
Just because it can do video doesn't mean you have to use it. I don't believe that a camera without video would be substantially less expensive, and the marketplace seems to favor hybrid cameras.
Great summation of this cool little camera, Ted. I'm wanting to get a dedicated wildlife body (guess it's time to upgrade from my 40D). I rented an R7 for a week hoping I'd hate it and save some money by getting a nice used 7D Mark II. Alas, I didn't hate it and am now waiting for B&H to actually get one to send me. It certainly didn't help that the animal tracking helped me get a shot of rushing western grebes I've wanted for years!
Keep the great content coming!
My R7 will be here this weekend. I have access to an R6 through work, thus I decided to take the savings and go with the R7. I have mostly been a full-frame shooter so a little worried about going back to APSC, but then again, the Canon 80D is still my favorite camera I have ever owned (prolly a little sentimental since it was my first big(ger) body DSLR, but I preferred it over the R6, 6d II, A7iii, A7C, X-E4, A6400 and A6600).
I’ve been loving my R7 for a while now. Already had an idea what to expect thanks to shooting on the 90D and printing those photos.
This hasn’t disappointed at all.
Do you see a big difference in video quality?
@@AlwaGordon If video is your thing, when comparing the two cameras, get the R7.
As flexible and nice as the 90D’s vid options are (especially when recording externally), the R7 blows it out of the water.
@@LE672AJ I already purchased the r7 just waiting on delivery now. I’m upgrading from the 70D so I imagine it will be a huge difference
Did you keep your 90D?
As always a very engaging presentation!
I agree that, at the price point, the R7 is great value for money. That said, I wish that they had called it the R70 or some such for two reasons: Canon in my area have told me it is really a replacement for the 90D, which was not a replacement for the 7DII. Giving it a different name would leave me to live in hope of a 7DII replacement as a R7. I say this as a wildlife photographer who wants to be able to have a pro-level body that offers a high-end sensor which takes advantage of the crop effect for telephoto work. There are a bunch of things missing to make this a true inheritor of the tile:
Inferior weather sealing - pros can't just pack up and go home if the weather turns to custard.
BSI/Stacked sensor - this is significant as it creates a choke point in terms of the data path. It would make the camera much more able to handle high-speed e-shutter without choking and reduce sensor creep.
A bigger buffer to allow one to shoot for more than about 1.2 sec at 30FPS in RAW.
Using CF-Express type 1 cards that offer high speed performance, yet are backwardly compatible to SD cards
A battery grip - for greater capacity, the portrait controls and to balance heavier tele lenses
I am on the fence as regards the new location of the control wheel, but if one is using this as a second unit, it could be a bit disconcerting.
So, again, this is a great camera at its price point and for its intended market, but I would have paid for a true 7DII replacement - I shall live in hope...
I think you've successfully itemised every reason I didn't buy this camera and I agree it's not a 7 series camera. I've sold my Canon gear and changed to an OM-1 as Canon has turned its back on those that want a high spec crop replacement for the 7DII
Great and very positive review, oh I love gloating over my new camera!
A EOS R6 with 30MP would be great and not 20MP...
Hi, thanks. Your reviews are so good, especially in the way you cut through to the main points. I bought a Fuji XT5 the day it appeared in Ireland, and while I like the camera, I find the tracking autofocus is giving me a lot of blurry pictures, like when I tried to photograph rowing on the Liffey a few days ago! I tend to go for APSC cameras rather than full frame. I like compactness and I like the additional reach they give me. Looking for something that feels good in the hand and has state-of-the-art autofocus, is there any sense in me trading in for the R7? I know it means getting new lenses, but I will continue to use the Fuji system for some of my photography (I have an XT30, which has better autofocus than than XT5).
Hi, thank you for sharing valuable information.
I am a teacher, and tend to film while I am writing on the whiteboard. Do you think R7 can be a good choice? Or may be you suggest the other one?
I main an 80D for weddings and all my maternity shoots., Adding in the extra card slot, better video specs, this is just an amazing upgrade for me. My only issue is higher megapixel. How does the higher megapixel work with ISO ranges around 2000?
Own the full frame R6. Would it be worth it to grab an R7 for wildlife for the extra reach?
Great review !
I'm starting the think the APS-C department at Sony has gone to sleep. I'm seriously thinking of jumping back to Canon as at least they still seem to take photography seriously, as opposed to just vlogging.
Canon should really open up lens specs to third party producers.
What about graininess? When I take pictures with my 2000d at ISO 1600, my pictures are very grainy. Is that better with the R7? This is the only thing that has yet to convince me to buy this camera.
Which Len's is good for r7 wedding Photography and street photography thank you
I really enjoyed this review, Ted is a good presenter and gave a fair and balanced review. I'm retired now from commercial photography after 40 years but still take a lot of pictures and have been a Canon digital owner since the 10D. I moved from the Canon 5Ds to the R when it debuted and for portraits, landscapes and general travel love it. I have been waiting for a mirrorless upgrade for my 7 year old 7D MkII and am planning to buy the R7 when they are back in stock. I'm disappointed not to have a battery grip as I like that with my big hands but also for long telephotos, just feels better but change is good sometimes. You have to weigh the pros and cons. Had to smile when Ted mentioned all the small sized Canon primes he has as I own them as well and really love them.
I went in the opposite direction. And bought me a couple of new old cameras. These are the Nikon D700 and the Fujifilm X100s. Old cameras aren't bad either. I just love the image quality of theese two..
Great Review. How does this compare to the Canon 90D my current camera? Would you say it's better or about equel? I've been wanting Canon to make a camera mirrorless camera with simular price point and features of the 90D. I'd have to say the R7 seems to be that camera.
Hopefully the Canon RP Mark 2 will have the same battery as the R7 and also have two card slots and unlimited recording time limit
Nice one! I’m loving my R7 😊 I need to get my hands on the 14-35!
a few questions.
context: I now have the 750d or T6i for 6 years now. looking for an upgrade. mainly do event photography but haven't gone professional (as in earn money from it yet. I also have the kit 18-135, efs wide 10-18, ef 50 1.8. I'm looking for an upgrade but not planning to sell any of my gear as I can covert and use and also use a backup cam.
Should I get the r7? I really like how fast it is and just how similar it feels ergonomically to my 750d. I'm really leaning towards the r7 coz of the price and AF. other stuff that I would really use is auto level and stabilisation, clog, dual card slots.
Should I get it with the kit 18-150 with the r7? Or should I use that money instead and get body only? I can convert my 18-135 using an adapter, but I'm not sure if this will limit my AF and AF speed.
Should I buy a speed booster? just yeah should I?
Shooting horse racing with the r3 i find that panning at a fast speed gets difficult when the electronic shutter has that "preview" look to it. does the r7 have a stutter when panning?
thanks for the video!
how easy would you say the R7 is to figure out how to use as a noob who's buying the camera for work as a youtuber?
i was considering the R50 because i know a lot of youtubers go with it as a first camera, but i don't like how flat i often find the images to be (which i assume is attributable to the image quality, but please correct me if i'm wrong!).
it also seemed like the R50's autofocus wasn't as great as i'd ideally like for vlogging, etc.
i'm pretty set on the R7 i think at this point, but was curious about the learning curve.
This camera seems great. As someone who is tempted by the cheap RF mount cameras like the EOS R and RP, but is disappointed by their lack of IBIS and solid video features I might just have to go for the R7. It isn't full frame which is unfortune - I'd love to use lenses like the 50mm f1.2 RF, and there isn't a APS-C equivalent at the moment. Otherwise this camera is close to perfect, I'd love to have one.
The camera actually is very good! Lenses sure are a problem but the image quality is impressive and the price is fine for this body
I think you can use rf lenses on the r7
@@medhanshtripathi1488 sure you can, with a mount adapter, but it results in heavyer, bulkier and outdated glass on a modern body. I tried and it is quite uncomfortable
@@CesareFerrari667 thats a good point. Its unfortunate that canon is lagging behind in terms of lenses when they're releasing so many bodies
@@medhanshtripathi1488 I am sure lenses will come
Just positives and no negatives. Not a trustworthy review. All cameras have some sort of flaw (negatives). This looked more like a sales pitch from Canon IMHO.
The title makes clear he is concentrating on the features he loves in this video.
R7 is what R6 should have been...other than the sensor size
I really like the R7 but I will not think about it unless there will be an APS-C RF lenses 😉
There are five rumored to be coming besides the two kit lenses
@@Halfhoff thanks dear, they should because using the full frame lenses might make sense only for the one who's already invested in the full frame not for who is just getting in the system 😉
Great video, thanks. Can you use ef-s lens with an adaptor with R7?
Yes.
Hi Ted, I've been thinking about this camera vs full frame, I think full frame is what I should aim for for various reasons, but I'm still a bit confused about the difference between APS-C and full frame. Is it mainly that the image is cropped in APS-C and that full frame can take better photos in low light conditions?
Basically yeah. So a 50mm on APS-C will have the equivalent field of view as a 80mm on a full frame, as 50*1.6=80. But it's the same for the aperture. APS-C adds a stop of light to the f number, so a f2 on APS-C is equivalent to a f2.8 on full frame. By this logic, APS-C cameras are simply not able to capture as much light as full frame, so yes, they will be worse in low light situations.
Lenses is the biggest problem for Canon here yet again and no, adapting EF glass is not the same. Why release great camera bodies without the glass. I do not get it...
I shoot and R5 and R7 with a mixture of EF and RF glass and notice very little in terms of difference. The EF glass focus motors are a little bit slower but it’s only occasionally noticeable.
Mine will go back to the store after 10 days. Was shooting on holidays and it just shutdown by itself a few times (not filming). It took a few on/off cycles before it came back to life.
Also in AV, the focus spot always revert to the bottom left at each power cycle so it becomes quite annoying if I forget to recenter it each time.
Too bad that where I was the only BIFs were seagulls, there are some municipal parks for other bird watching but the nearby landlords give you a hard time if you walk too close to their lot.
Yep LuMi Naire I’ve experienced the random shutdowns a couple times as well. Took removal of the battery and reinsertion to correct. Still keeping mine but hopefully this will be fixed in firmware.
If Canon just made a batterygrip for the R7.
What are your thoughts on speed boosters and adapting to ef lenses on the R7 to simulate a near-to full-frame use on the aps-c camera?
Awesome Kodakcrome presets, love them with my M. Thx
Thanks for a compact but fare review. I'm looking for a more down to earth tracking focus comparison to Sony and yours comes as a surprise considering all puff pieces I see around. Although it's only a few words w/o any evidence it feels somehow more informative anyway.
I got the same camera, lens, and Apple Watch band.
the kit lens performs better than the 24-105L... seems like better than okay to me
R7 puts the most video high specs into an apsc camera so far. Price wise (in the ball park) as competitors for photo and video hybrids in full frame are Nikon Z5 with IBIS, and Canon RP or the R (but cropped 4K), plus the Sony's you mentioned. The R7 has a lot of speed advantages over those mentioned, high fps in photo, great tracking, and very good video specs from downsampling.
Working with R7 right now and I must say the camera is impressive! Maybe not the best out there, but fur such a price is a sure winner!
No battery grip so it's pointless for sports and wildlife. Shame
Great video, overall R7 looks really good. I see the R7 as the perfect R5 back up camera, what do you think?
I think R7 is perfect back up for R5
Nice look at the camera now that it's out. I can't manage to do a transition to RF from EF-M right now but the R7 is a very good sign for future options. Especially with video in my case.
Use speed booster
@@xjooels yeah, I had used the Viltrox one occasionally
For video, IPB-only compression is a non-starter.
I've been told that there will NOT have any battery grip for this camera. Can you please confirm? If yes, it's a major drop off for me...
I hope there will be. I was very apprehensive when I ordered the R7 but now that it has been in my hand, I’m not concerned about the lack of BG. My hand fits in the grip better than it does in the R5 (with the 5 my pinky finger would end up under the camera so I got a BG for it). That issue isn’t happening for me with the 7
It gives you 30fps rolling shutter effect photos for 2 seconds before the bufer gets ful. Mechanical shutter sucks, they must have dug it out of the past and slap it on R7 and it gives you all of 3 seconds of shooting like AK-47 sending vibration blur all over the image. The result of mixing old tech with new tech = rubbish. You want jack of all trades master of none camera - R7 is your baby. Why people are buying it is beyond me. Canon exploited the dread of mirrorless 7D to suck people's cash and make record profit of reselling old tech. Now they will likely fix all that in R7 Mark II, but im not waiting another 5 years for it.
I find Canon auto focus slightly better than sony.
What do you think about speed-boosters for canon r7. I hear the canon has some purple fringing but the 2 viltrox s.boosters seem good? There aren’t any reviews for photo and none comparing the canon to the 2 viltrox. Now canon has good crop bodies but limited crop lenses. So it seems like a possible work around but I’d like to be sure before recommending to friends looking to get into photography. Reviews please? 🙏
RP owner since about a year (super happy RP owner!)
R6 since yesterday:
Yes, a VERY GOOD allrounder camera... but for my needs i didnt saw enough improvements compared to the DOWNSIDES:
-20 MP... since i sold my APS-C DSLR i missed already a lot of pixel density for astrophotography. WIth just my RP it was already bad for deep sky, but the R6 will perform even worse, just slighly but worse
- price/performance ratio seems not right, reviews say how good and awesome and that its worth it... but 1) Fuji AND Sony can deliver more for less money and 3rd party lenses aviable, 2) the price is not right! I paid 2nd hand not that much, but the MSRP is MUCH TOO HIGH.
- line skipped video, overheating, common, cannon.... you cannot do this
And soon R7 owner to replace the R6. I will also keep the RP: RP and R7 sounds for my needs much more practical and universal than the R6 for a similar price point. The RPs iso performance and good overall package is all i need for most of the time and the R7 is the dedicated wildlife/sports body. In the right conditions and my usecases... each camera will outperform the R6 i guess and i always have a backup body if any camera ever die or another problem occurs.
Its anyways very hard to get rid of the RP, the R6 is much heavier and less "convenient" for my taste, just for 120 fps video and animal eye detect its not worth the extra size and anything else i dont really appreciate/need that much. If the R7 perform better than expected in high ISO and i could probably learn to live with permanent APS-C crop again, i can still sell the RP.
I dont have it yet, but i am pretty sure i will love it much more than the R6. The R6 is sadly a good example of a very good allrounder, but also the example of the "Allrounder"... good in anything, but for most more dedicated/spezialized things you miss a few interesting features here and there.
RP will be my travel/portable/allrounder Camera, R7 for video, wildlife and astrophotography on the telescope.
Something I was hoping to see/hear was Ted's thoughts about the physical makeup of the kit lenses and the RF-S lenses in general and their plastic mounting flanges. That worries the daylights out of me in terms of durability.
Hi Ted, thank you for this review. It does help for me to decide but not enough ...yet. I'm looking for a used camera and am torn between the Sony A7 III, Canon R6 en R7. I mainly use it for various situations, mostly during daytime. I own a A7r II but it's AF is well could be better. How about the dynamic range and recovering shadows and highlights? Any advise is welcome. Greetz Ab
I just got mine today. Very excited to start using it. My old Canon is probably 15-20 years old. Compact Flash, tiny screen, 8mp.
which lens is better for video with R7
Is the image quality same, or maybe a bit better of 90D? I would buy 90D for some Years, but i heared from many Users focus issues with this camera over the Optical viewfinder, so i buyed not! Now i looked interessting to the new R7, when the Focus is now better as on 90D, then i would choosen this Camera!
Nice review from you!
This would've been a pro camera 5yrs ago. Now we're just getting features in excess. Does it have a battery grip?
It seems unlikely that Canon will make a lot of APS-C glass for these mirrorless new bodies, and full frame RF glass is astronomically priced. With no third party options, these seem like dead ends. I'm looking at changing systems, for the glass.
Do Canon make any Mirrorless or DSLR with just a tilt screen?.... it's why I've never ever picked one up because to me, flip screens are a cardinal sin in photography, just my opinion.
A little more than a month in and I'm really loving the step up to the R7 from my SL2. The kit lens is too versatile as a walk around lens. I wish I could leave it at home, but for hiking it just does too much with acceptable IQ and is really lightweight. I want to love the RF 50 more, but my Tamron SP 45 still produces such good results I'll deal with the weight of it when I must. Being able to adapt all of my EF-S lenses is helpful, but I still want the 85...and 35...and now the 24.
I've started thinking about replacing the same camera you did and so far the R7 is on top of my list. I did originally assume I'd move up to full-frame but when taking price and camera development into consideration, I'm more tempted by a newer model than an older one at a bigger discount. I guess most people upgrading from the SL2 to this will be more than happy either way, but still.. How are you finding it now that you've used it a bit longer?
The 16mm is actually f2.8 does that mean the Fstop is actually F4.5 or because its a fullframe lens it remains at F2.8
It's still f/2.8 whatever sensor you put behind it and the exposure will be the same although a bigger sensor will generally be better in low light
@@noelchignell1048 do you still multiply the fstop tho, you do on a crop lens
@@markshirley01 not really the f/stop is a mathematical formula of the focal length divided by the entrance pupil diameter
eg my EF400mm f/2.8 has an entrance pupil of 143mm i.e. 400/2.8 = 143
Doesn't matter whether it's mounted on my aps-c 7Dii or a full frame camera.
Of course although the f/stop and exposure is the same the resulting images will be different as will the field of view.
Also the sensor size doesn't affect the focal length either just the fov because a crop sensor is effectively cropping the image by gathering a much smaller area of the image circle.
In the same way the crop sensor is cropping in camera so the amount of light gathered is much less
eg a 1.6x crop sensor has only 40% of the area of a 35mm full frame so it's only gathering 40% of the light but that doesn't change the f stop ratio in any way.
Cheers
Noel
Really nice, concise review. I especially enjoyed comparing it to the other cameras in the same price range. I was wondering if you have any plans for your presets to come to Capture 1? Thanks for the insights!
Hi. May I know if I can use your film simulation presets in Adobe Camera RAW. Thanks.
Those presets you sell, can you use it with capture one? Because i dont use adobe stuff....
I am still stuck between the lumix S5 and the R7😂
It seems like the professional apsc canon camera for video is going to stick with the C70 unless they finally come out with the forever rumored, probably never gonna happen C50. But one can dream. Please something less than $3000! Lol
Where are the lenses? No more 3rd party and canon has a lens desert for rfs
Wow, those new Canon lenses look cheap. Its all plastic it seems.
Kit lens quality.
Good One Sir..I love it..one of my fav camera in canon..I am planning to buy one sir..I think I will buy soon..I searching job..I am planing to move to some new place sir
What are the memory cards that you use for the R7? I just got mine about a month ago and I have been shopping around for the best UHSII cards to use for it .
Excellent review! Just a suggestion on your "bundled offerings", you should provide some price incentive to your followers. As is the price of buying your presets packages individually x 2 is exactly the same cost of buying 1 bundled package, there is no incentive to buy the bundle upfront. Maybe individual preset package = $29.95 and Bundle = $49.95?
I made the mistake of preordering with a loser local dealer on the 25th May I spoke with them today they have their very 1st one coming in next week but it's for the guy before me it seems I'm only second but I feel its only because they're getting 25% commission on stuff that guy is selling through them. THey were saying I'm first till a few weeks ago. I decided not waiting any longer I'm either going for the XH2s or OM-1. It's a bit more but as you say Canon don't seem to treat APSC as pro like they used to in the days of 7DMKII. Although the R7 is way above a 7DMKII.
Take your time. Choose your brand wisely. Consider the lenses you need, the feel, the ergonomics.
canon first mirrorless is eos M anyway not EOS R
Nearly a year and I've been building my RF lens collection. Now that I have the 16mm f/2, the 24mm f/1.8, the 50mm f/1.8, and the 85mm f/2, I sprang for the 70-200 f/4 L and that one is amazing, if significantly larger and heavier than the others. (Haven't used the kit lens in a long time!) Covered the apartment complex's NoTalent Show entirely with the 24mm and discovered that I could "zoom" in my editing program by cropping and got shots with the angle of view of a 135mm lens on a full-frame camera that looked very nice. Amazing how good a 4 Megapixel crop from a RAW file can look!
How refreshing a R7 review that did not reveal "a fatal flaw" LOL
Canon needs to release some 2.8 lenses for the r7.
Hopefully sigma will come and save the day like they did with the ef-m mount when canon created yet another apsc lens dessert.
Thanks Ted for a very detailed review, I really enjoyed hearing your balanced opinion on this camera. Do you know if there is a battery grip option for the R7? Thanks
Unfortunately, Canon will not make battery grips for the R10 or R7, they said. So one can only hope that third-party manufacturers do this in the future. Hope this was helpful.
Thanks for that. I guess it will depend what contacts there are for an external grip to use. Just the battery contacts would I guess allow you to increase the battery capacity, but may be not a vertical shutter button or other controls.
Between R / R7 wich one better ?? I am a weddibg photographer
C70 is the video focused professional APSC camera that you asked for :))
Pictures look sharp with nice colour . Earlier M6 mark ii had sharpness and focus problem.
Hi Ted, would be interested in your take on Canon limiting 3rd party lenses on the new R mount system - as an ametuer photograpther I need to really justify every lens I purchase and when considering what is available in Nikon and Sony, I think Canon may have dropped the ball - love to hear your take.
Professional APS-C? Go Fujifilm X-H2S!!!
I’ll stay with film cameras. But I just love watching you discuss cameras haha
Thank you so much Ted for the informative review video! I always learn a lot from your videos! God bless you and good luck!
Hi Ted.
Technically it is possible to open new type of raw file if you convert them to Tif file.
