Canon EOS R: The Canon EOS R 1 month later.. Big Mistake?
RYN Photography has been using the EOS R for a month as his main camera and here are his thoughts on the EOS R and if he felt it was a big mistake getting the EOS R. It's an older video that I missed at the time, but still relevant if you are considering an EOS R as I know there's still quite a few people (like me) wondering if the EOS R is the right camera for them.
- Liked the EVF after getting used of it. Especially for video recording.
- The eye detection for the EVF a bit fussy when attached to a gimbal
- Battery life has been good
- No issues using EF lenses with it
- Favorite feature / button is the m.fn button
- Hasn't found the touchbar too useful
- Flip screen has been fantastic
- Ergonomics in general, felt better than the 5D Mark IV after a while
- Left camera out in the rain, EVF fogged up but otherwise was fine
- Has had occasional lockups (three times) in burst mode
Verdict: If you have an EOS R and want to trade it for an 5D Mark IV, talk to him. He likes the R more than his 5D Mark IV.
