The latest news on cameras, from EOSHD

Client journalism, you see it at the White House. Bunch of tossers, bunch of boot lickers, the same people who appeased the ruling party in 1930s Germany.

It’s been a long wait for the new R5 – four years to be exact. In this time the competition hasn’t stood still. Nikon have since acquired RED and upped their game significantly in RAW video on the Z6 III, Z8 and Z9. The Canon EOS R5 Mark II improves on the old camera, but is it enough to stop Canon being thought of as a second best option?
