Just a bit of testing the new (for me) Canon EOS R mirrorless full frame camera's video on Orion, Sirius & Orion's Nebula. It does seem to have better low light than the newer Canon 90D crop sensor camera which I had to send back. Using slow shutter in-camera of 1/8 and a high ISO of 20,000, a bit of the foreground trees could be seen along with many stars. There wasn't as much graininess as the 90D had at 1/8 slow shutter and ISO 12,800.
