We spend 5 DAYS testing the Canon R5, pushing it to the max in real world photography and filmmaking tests. SPOILER: it is the BEST and WORST camera we have EVER used.
Against all warnings, we purchased the Canon EOS R5. BUT we have 14 days to return it, so we’re going to put it through 5 DAYS of intense testing to find out whether it’s any good for a photographer/videographer - and this is important because we are BOTH.
We are long time Canon users. Canon fan boys you might call us. We have all heard the specs and problems of the R5, but how does it actually work in the real world. We take it on 5 days worth of jobs, and client shoots, photo and video to find out how it performs, or doesn’t.
We take you along for the ride to find out whether or not we should keep or return this camera.
