OF is a joke not sure why people watch him and repost his video.

Hope the hurricane will not hit bad. Ordering through BH is an option and the total cost is about the same as here but when I resell, not sure why people, want to see that it was brought in Switzerland even if is a 4 year old body with no warranty. Auto WB is not a major issue for me as I mostly shoot RAW, but I did notice that between "takes" especially on the ice arena is inconsistent something that the R5c is not. I will use the preset when using 10bit formats just to be on the safe side.

It seems that your first one had some hw issue on top of the bugs. I tested IBIS with the old FW at 14mm (IS lens) and 16mm (no IS lens) handheld fast panning, slow panning, tilting and twisting and I could not see the same wobble issue that the R5 had. If is still there very much improved. Since updating to the new FW I have shot 2 more hockey matches and 1 additional show jumping competition, and I did not encounter any issue. I will be selling my R5c for a second R5 II as soon as I find one in stock that here in Switzerland seems impossible to find. I can confirm that the AF, battery life and the image quality vs R5c the R5 II is definitely better. Just now I was editing a video that I shot with both R5 II and R5c both in RAW and the image of R5 II is just better and can take more beating in post. One thing that is not super is the auto WB, the R5c is more consistent. Frame grab 8k 50, ISO 4000, no noise reduction, shot through a Plexiglas...

3. Could explain why it does not happen to me a lot, because I either use the EVF but then the LCD is off an mostly turned in or I use the LCD but I don't use the EVF. Thinking about I know why it happened only in 200fps because there I was continuously switching between EVF and LCD.... I hope it fixes it. For the battery drain die you had the setting with Standby: Low Res to On? This makes a big difference while not filming how much battery you drain. R5c does not have this feature, and it burns battery at the same rate if your record or not.

Number game interpretations. For RAW with no processing you should compare to the max DR possible so it would be 14.9 vs 13.4. The proof that in 4k Log R5II 13.6 stops of usable DR vs 12, indeed disappointing 😉 And view that you are disappointed can you point hybrid cameras with more than 13.6 stops? I believe only A1 has 0.2 more... But again, I don't care about the numbers too much as I just open the files from both camera that I own and is definitely visible the better DR.

The wide lens (sensor) is the same quality as the standard one so a good improvement but other than that not much this time.

Canon claims 16 stops for both so not sure why you are expecting significant improvements from the r1 vs r5 II. In my experience shooting R5c and R5 II (I own both) side by side the R5 II has better DR. The numbers also confirm this. On the IBIS issue I agree with you. Same for the overheating. Btw I owned 1D III, 1Dx, 1Dx II and 1Dx III and I'm so happy that R3 and R1 does not look any better than the R5 II so I can skip those huge body that are a pita on gimbal and heavy. I use big lenses like the 100-300 2.8 on the R5 II and compared to my sports steup of years ago 1Dx III + 200-400 is much lighter and compact for a better picture quality.

Last week I shot two ice hockey matches and a horse endurance race. Shot mostly 8k 25 and 50 RAW and some 10bit 2k 200fps. I did not have any issue with black/green screen, but I never had it in RAW. As I film the hockey matches in the same arena so same lighting and similar situations, I can confirm that AF is better than R5 and R5c and the image quality too, it is less noisy, and I find it easier to expose. The AWB I feel the R5c is better but as I mostly shot RAW it does not really matter. I'm exposing the highlight to just barely pass the last top row of the WFM and it seems to be working well in most of my scenarios. Now Canon please add a button to show and hide WFM!! Battery life in 8k 25 is about the same as the R5 and much better than the R5c. At 8k 50 I shoot around 30 min of footage with the camera on, continuously AF and IS (no standby) for around 1.5h with 1 battery and still had juice left. In 8k 50 it will eventually overheat, for the endurance race (under the sun at 25c) I did longer takes like 5-10 min each and the overheating warning was at 2 out 10. Is the only occurrence so far that the warning came out but most of my takes are below 5 min. I got scared because a couple of times the brightness of the EVF did change while shooting, the recorded video was normal with no brightness change, then I realized that I did disable auto brightness of the LCD but not for the EVF.... rookie mistake. I did a quick test at 14mm and the IBIS wobbling is much improved over the R5, where it was not usable imo... I need to do some more tests as I did only by standing still and panning (fast and slow) but no walking/running yet. I'm starting to consider replacing my beloved R5c with a second R5 II, for my usage the only two things that I would really miss from the R5c on the R5 II are: peaking during AF (less needed as the R5 II AF is better) and no overheating. The biggest improvement over the R5c is AF, battery life, DR (noise, highlights and easy to expose), 2k 240fps, c1-c3, IBIS (although I'm sure there will be occurrences that I wish it did have full locked system)

I have a hard time seeing why for hybrid usage somebody would choose a R1 instead of a R5 II

AF not reliable, they changed the AF chip twice, one was a recall, but nothing really improved. I also had the mirror box replaced because it was getting stuck in hot temperatures... it was 1 week old, sent in twice as these stupid support people ignored my note to warm the camera to 30 degrees. At the end I traveled there at put it on a radiation and show the issue. CPS gave me a 1Dn loan until it was fixed. In 20 years of Canon is the only issue that required me to send it in but I was really frustrated. On the R5 II, I don't believe the green screen issue is HW it sounds typical of buffer bugs (Resolve had similar issues in the past). Getting a replacement now it will most probably have the same HW. It is really widespread the issue so either is FW or is a recall.

I do not really agree the worst offender was the 1D III, 3 trips to Canon to get it fix....and really never got fixed. Not sure that at that time it was better.... and it was the top of the line camera.

From Canon rumors so it is a rumors 😉 Update: Canon has started to install firmware v.1.0.1 on serviced Canon EOS R5 Mark II camera bodies. This update looks like it addresses an issue with the screen going green when shooting video.

HW issue? It seems a typical buffer corruption issue... purely SW... but let see.... The picture that you posted is what happens to me, so far only in 200fps but I do shoot mostly in RAW. AF never stopped in my case, and I shoot 3 TB of video so far, all using AF. Was it with the adapter or RF? If it is with the adapter, then it seems to have an issue with it as first the aperture and now the AF both that needs camera+adapter+lens communication.

Correction it seems the same and many have this issue: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4773815 I will try the above settings to see if it happens again.

In my case when I press the record button the video feed goes black but all the info items on the screen are still visible. Is like filming with the lens cap on, so it seems different than your case. I had to pull the battery but I was in an hurry. I’m submitting the case to CPS
