I think there is 4K120p R5 footage available in one of the many R5 threads. Good luck finding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trek of Joy Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 The R6 performance looks really good, HD 120fps looks nice, 4k60p and IBIS look fantastic. The R5 that shot the Dpreview video looks really good too. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great, overheating has not so much impact in Canada, let's wait for the review in Miami. Anyway, probably with some indie ice pack solution will be posible to get better time recordings in hot weather. 1 hour ago, Trek of Joy said: The R6 performance looks really good, HD 120fps looks nice, 4k60p and IBIS look fantastic.

I'd be interested to shoot in 4k 60p 10 bit for an hour or so and see what happens. That said the XT3 definitely performs pretty well. I had overheating issues a lot with my A6300. I had issues with the XT30, but I assume its due to the smaller body. What are the issue that you've had with the XT-30 (it have a 10 min time limit in 4k, not)? Have one in my radar, good to have some hands on info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After it hit the record limit I'd immediately press record again. Probably 30 minutes into in it started overheating and shutting off. This was inside, not a particularly hot venue either. I switched to 1080p and it was fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yurolov Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Not sure if we are allowed to post this here: But judging by this it is an unmitigated disaster of a camera...although that is not the impression you get from dpreview where there was no overheating at 24p. But summer in japan can get hot. Originally, I thought this would be a good camera, but if it is this bad, then I don't know how you could justify purchasing it. hijodeibn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nezza Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Woah - the review above compared to the dpreview review it's like they talking about a different camera! Pretty damning. Unfortunately the guy above didn't go into any detail of how long / which frame rate which is crucial. The camera could be performing exactly as Canon have said! Need more detailed reviews.

mechanicalEYE Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I don't follow C5D's reviews very often but on this review he shot for two days or so and did not provide any specific details on modes, and settings. Clearly he was very let down by the R6 but whats the point in this feedback if couldn't clarify his recording times, and how/when the problems occurred. His write up on the issue below, I guess he was like Fu-K it, it overheats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveV4D Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 This is worrying. I had hoped the R6 would perform better than the R5 for coping with overheating. I would be reluctant to use this camera even for short periods if its as bad as this review suggests. If this account is accurate and true for the final production camera, it makes a lie of anyone who feels they can get away with using either the R5 or R6 even for short filming segments as opposed to long recordings like Weddings. No doubt many have the R5 and R6 on preorder. It'll be interesting to read more accounts to best judge how serious the overheating problem is.

crevice Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 That C5D article is one of the worst professional “reviews” I have ever read. It reads like a blog by a college student. He goes into zero detail about what actual mode he was using (hq?, etc), how long he was shooting or if he even reached out to canon to see if it was normal. Not to mention the writing skills are just plain bad. mechanicalEYE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He states that he used a pre-production camera so maybe something was up with his unit ? DPreview guy said they used a full production unit for their review. I cant call it...

This camera is useless, there is no way you can work with a tool like that, the only hope now is an external recorded, I know will be a bulky solution but at least you will not lose important moments during the shooting. Really bad canon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Django Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Damn.. that is a scary bad review. I sincerely hope R5 does a better job than that but in any case I will be awaiting more in-depth reviews of the overheating before even considering purchasing it. Very alarmed by this even though the details are sketchy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trankilstef Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 Guys he said he shot in 4k24p. Funny enough the R6 should not overheat in 4k30p and below according to Canon. That's very very scary ! i can't imagine the R5 with the extreme 8k and 4k120p modes. I will wait for the A7sIII to come out before deciding if I keep my S1H or if I make the jump back to Sony, but honestly Canon is now out of my list.
