DPreview reviews the Canon EOS R5
Two of my favorite reviewers took the EOS R5 out and gave it a good review, shot in 286F around the surface temperature of Venus, according to Chris.
(I don't think it was really that hot)
Some notes;
- Best full frame IBIS system that Chris has seen to date.
- IBIS + IS does actually work with EF lenses, around 6 stops of IBIS.
- I think Chris wanted the beer more than low light samples
- Feels like the full resolution is showing up in the EVF
- Autofocus excellent
- Animal AF doesn't work with bear rugs
- Sensor quality excellent - comparable to its peers
- AA filter doesn't seem to have a sharp impact
- fastest scan rate of any of the high-resolution sensor cameras
- 8K is insanely sharp
- 4K 120 is excellent
- 4K HQ - Jordon loves
- 1080P, 4K lineskipped does not overheat
- Fighting the overheating with video
- No video backups
- Still have 29:59 record limit
- No C-Log 2 or 3
- DPAF 2 Autofocus is excellent for video
- IBIS is excellent for video
- Rolling shutter is acceptable
- Jordan feels the video is more a novelty on the R5
Summary;
Photographic wise they loved it, video wise, the overheating is limiting. If you need a true hybrid camera, this right now is probably not it.
