Here's what i think about the Canon EOS R after seven months.
Now ive had this camera for a good 7 months and i will first all state that this camera is a beast! Now i was NOT paid to use this camera like other content creators I went in the store and bought it like a normal person. When i got the Camera it also came with a 24-105 F4 lens and i will say me using that lens is pretty dope! What impressed me about that kit lens was the silent auto focus...it was actually pretty sharp for a kit lens!. Now they have came out with other RF lenes and i have yet to buy one yet because lets be real here...they are expensive as hell. Price ranges 2-3 thousand dollars per lens! the next lens i would buy for this camera is the 35mm 1.8 RF lol its well within my current price range for what i would like to pay for a lens right now. Battery: The Battery on this camera is pretty cool...i think you get a least 3-500 shots out of one battery which is fine. The battery that it uses is the LP-E6n, the same battery as the Canon 5D Mark IV. I tried using my older batteries from my canon 6D (LP-E6) and yes it works however i am unable to charge the battery via usb C nor will I be able to charge the batteries while using the grip BG-E22. Specs: As for the sensor i was and still impressed with it. It uses the same sensor thats in the 5D But the EOS R uses a Digic 8 image processor at 30.3 Mega pixels for the Cmos sensor as well while the 5D uses the digic 6 image processor with a 30.4 mega pixel for their Cmos sensor. The EOS R shoots 720P (23,24,60,120FPS), 1080P (23,24,60FPS), and also 4K as well. the only two issues i have in this department is that 4k is cropped at 1.7 and i can only shoot 120 frames per second only in 720P. i would also add that i can shoot 24 frames per second i would have to have a display attached to be able to shoot exactly 24 frames per seconds. I also finally was able to shoot in c-log as well! some of the videos i was posting on my channel i was messing around with c-log and i will tell you color grading will be your best friend when using c-log. When shooting in c-log you are given a choice for 8 bit or 10 bit as well. Lens: I feel this was one of the selling points for me to get this camera. The EOS R uses a RF mount but as i said earlier their new lens are expensive! So canon knew this and when you purchased a adapter you they gave you one for free. yea....free. The adapter that comes with is a standard mount adapter for your EF lenses. meaning with this camera i am able to use all of the basic lens, the L series lens, and the new RF lens as well. not pretty bad when you think about it. because when and if i want to shoot in 4k for my youtube videos or weddings i can just get a Canon 10-18 STM and have that ultra wide view to make up for the crop. The one thing i do love about the RF lenes is the control ring. i am able to use the control ring to control my ISO, Shutter, or aperture in my configured settings. The only drawback i dont like is that some lenes will not work with the EOS R . i have a older model 70-200 by tamron and i can only shoot manual when using it with the EOS R. Handles: When compared to the sony A7III i think this camera is better design wise..when i had the sony a7III in my hands i legit felt like i was going to drop the camera in the store. it just didn't feel ergonomic to me. with the R it just felt good in my hands and i just felt more confident when holding it. It really feel better when you pair it with the battery grip. thats what i use when i go shoot weddings. Overall: This camera was a sleeper on everybody. I feel like canon could've added more like the missing dual slots the inbody stabilization and no cropping on the 4k hopefully if the rumors is true the next mirror less will have the better features that they messed up on. So who would i say this camera is for? Me personally i would say it will be good for a photographer. I shoot weddings and i have no problem with it and when i get my feet wet i will shoot some sports games with it as well. Like i said in my previous video when i unboxed it. i feel that this is the 5d mk4 little brother thats just missing some things the 5d mk4 has. If you have the money to get a canon 6d mark 2 you should just go ahead and just get the EOS R
