Canon EOS R5 Photo Quality

This section will talk about the Photo Quality of the Canon EOS R5.

Sensor

The Canon EOS R5 has a Full-Frame 47 Megapixels Resolution CMOS Sensor. This Resolution Capture high-quality Details and Colors.

The Photo Quality of the Canon EOS R5 is incredible.

First, the Skin Tones are natural to what we see with our Naked Eyes. 

Second, the Colors generally are Impressive, but the Beauty is their Low-Light Performance.

Also, the Dynamic Range is massive compared to what other cameras in this price range offer.

I have taken many Photos with this Camera in Both Daylight and Low Light. Even in Low Light, you get a Great Combination of Shadows and Highlights.

Also, its ability to Capture Fast-Moving Subjects is Excellent. If you are a Wildlife Photographer, R5 is a no-brainer offer.

Overall, The Sensor is Powerful and captures the Best Image Quality.

Processor

Canon EOS R5 uses a DIGIC X Image Processor. Like the Sensor, the Processor of R5 is also very Powerful. 

The Processor helps the Camera work fast while Autofocus, Stabilization, Burst Mode, etc. We will talk about these features below. 

To Compare, the DIGIC X Processor is about six times faster than the DIGIC 8 Processor.

With the DIGIC X Processor, Canon has Improved Algorithms for Noise Reduction and Autofocus Systems. As a result, the Camera has a new feature to Track Eyes and Face. 

Canon R5 can Easily Detect and Track a Bird’s Eye. If you are a Wildlife or Bird Photographer, you know what you came to choose. 

Ultimately, It also delivers Very Fast Reading and Writing Speed. The Canon EOS R5 is the first Camera in its series to have a CFexpress card slot.

AutoFocus

There have been Two Developments in the Canon EOS R5 Autofocus System. 

• First is the AI-Powered Animal Eye, Head, and Back Detection.
• And Second, Face, Eye, and Head Detection for Humans.

Canon EOS R5 also gets an updated All-Pixel Dual-Core CMOS AF Technology. Shooting a Bird’s Eye on Bright and Sunny Days becomes easier.

All Thanks to this Improved Technology.

With the Technology, the Time to Focus on a Subject also has been reduced to only 0.05 Seconds.

And the Autofocus can Work in Both Daylight and Low Light with a Wide Brightness Range.

In Continuous Shooting, the Autofocus System is Always spot-on. Every photo from the Burst Mode is Sharp and Clear.

The AF system also works great during Video Recording. It rarely loses the Subject. To sum it up, You get one of the Best, Fast, and most Accurate Autofocus systems in Canon R5.

Image Stabilization

The Canon EOS R5 comes with Sensor-Shift 5-Axis In-Body Image Stabilization System. It combines Optical and In-Body Stabilization to Deliver the Best Stabilization Possible.

For photos, this Camera is even Better.

It gives you more time to Capture at Slow Shutter Speeds without Worrying about Shaking Hands.

Shooting Speed

Because of Canon EOS R5’s Fast and Improved Processor, You get Large Buffer Sizes and Faster Fps.

It also helps the Camera to have a Completely Silent Shutter while in Burst Mode.

The Canon R5 has a Continuous Shooting Speed of up to 12 FPS for up to 183 Frames with the Mechanical Shutter. And with the Electronic Shutter, the Camera has a Shooting Speed of up to 20 FPS for up to 83 Frames.

All the Photos are Very Sharp and Clear. That also makes it a Decent Camera for Sports and Action Photography. 

Plus, you get an Option of the Silent Shutter. 

You get a Very Fast and Impressive Shooting Speed in EOS R5. 

Exposure

The Exposure Ability of Canon EOS R5 is because of its decent ISO Sensitivity and Metering Ability.

Canon EOS R5 has an ISO Range from 100 to 51200 for Photos. An ISO Range of 100 to 25100 for Videos.

As a result, it can Take Excellent Low-Light Photos and Videos. Canon EOS R5 has decent Noise Reduction Ability.

The Metering Ability of Canon EOS R5 Ranges from -3 to 20V. That also helps you take Low-Light Sunset Photos.

Exposure is also Dependent on the Shutter Speed of a Camera. The Shutter Speed of Canon EOS R5 ranges from 1/8000 to 30 Sec.

Overall, I loved its Ability to Show the Highlights and Shadows Without Losing Color Details.

In the Video also, you get the same metering ability. 

Another part of a camera’s exposure ability is its Exposure Recovery. And let me tell you why it is Incredible.

The Camera can Recover a perfectly pitched black video into a Good Bright Video. There will be some Grains at 4 & 5 to stop underexposure, but the Video will become Usable.

And While shooting an overexposed video, the Exposure Recovery up to 5 Stops will have little to no loss of details.

The EOS R5 handles both Underexposed and Overexposed Video and photos amazingly.

Canon EOS R5 Video Quality

This section will talk about the Video Quality of the Canon EOS R5.

4K Video

You can record DCI and Ultra HD 8K Videos at up to 30 FPS. It can also record DCI and Ultra HD 4K Videos at up to 120 FPS.

So, first, let us look at its 8K Video Format. Is it even usable?

You can record 8K in Raw 12-bit, 10-bit, and 8-bit.

While extensively recording 8K Videos, you might face overheating in the Camera. And it stops you from registering more than 10 minutes of 8K video.

You will need 1 TB storage to store 51 Minutes of Recording. That’s Huge. 

But If you are a Professional Cinematographer, you can use this Camera without a second thought.

Now let’s Talk about this Camera’s 4K Video Recording Ability.

Canon EOS R5 can Record 4K at up to 120 FPS. The Stabilization System helps you shoot Smoother and Clear 4K Slow-Motion Videos. There are Several Color Depths also Available to you.

The 4K Recording is made in 10 and 8-bit only. Also, some users have reported heating issues while extensive video recording at higher FPS. 

Even after extensive usage, the Processor handles the requests very well and provides a better experience. 

Overall, Video Quality is Awesome, and you will surely love the Camera’s performance. 

Full HD Video

Canon EOS R5 can only Record Full HD Video in 1080p at up to 60 FPS. It would have been a Perfect Camera if it provided 120 FPS in both 4K and Full HD.

Apart from that, this Camera records Full HD with all the Clarity and Stabilization. I did not have any Overheating Issues while Recording Videos in 1080p.

There is not much to say more about the Full HD feature of the Canon R5.

Vlogging

I think Canon EOS R5 is an Overkill for Vlogging. I recommend this Camera as an Upgrade option for Vloggers Rather than their First Camera.

Keeping that in mind, let me tell you about the features that support vlogging.

The first is its Ergonomics. Canon R5 has a Weather-Sealed Body made of Magnesium Alloy. It is Lighter and Smaller compared to many other Canon Mirrorless Cameras.

As a result, you can Carry this Camera easily with one hand for a Long Time.

EOS R5 offers you a Fully Articulating Touch Screen. It helps you see your Composition Live as you are Recording.

Also, there is a Dedicated Video Recording Button. So, the Camera will Start Recording as soon as you press it, even if you are in Photo Mode.

And that is what I loved as well.

Because of Such Easy Controls, the Camera is Easy to Control and Handle.

As I have discussed earlier, Canon EOS R5 can record 4K in 120fps and 8K in 30fps.

I tried recording clips in Low Light. And the Autofocus was superb.

Subject Tracking in the Video for this Camera is Excellent. Whether you want to record a 4K or 8K, the Camera can easily Focus on the Subject.

But, there is a problem with its Autofocus Range.

Apart from that, the In-Built Stabilization of Canon EOS R5 also helps keep your Video as Smooth as possible.

Audio Quality

The Canon EOS R5 comes with an In-Built Mic. It can Record Sound in AAC and LPCM formats. What’s the difference?

Well, AAC is more Compressed in Size but comes in a Lossy format. That means the AAC Format Loses its Frequency and Details after Some Time.

And LPCM is a Lossless Format but is Large-Sized. Apart from these Two Formats, the Canon R5 provides three Recording Levels.

• Auto: Auto adjusts the Levels Automatically.
• Wind Filter: The Wind Filter Reduces the Wind Sound. But you will also Lose Low-Bass Sound. 
• Attenuator: The Attenuator Reduces Distortion caused by Loud Noises.

The Canon EOS R5 also provides a Microphone Jack. You can take this Camera in Heavy Winds without any problem.

The audio quality is loud and clear.

I still recommend that you use an External Mic.

Canon EOS R5 Features

This section will talk about the features of the Canon EOS R5.

Weight & Portability

Canon EOS R5 weighs only 738 Grams with its Battery and Memory Card Installed. At that Weight, it Becomes Easy to Carry the camera Single-Handedly.

The R5 is a Compact Camera with dimensions of 5.43 x 3.84 x 3.46 inches. It is an Excellent Daily use and a Travel Camera.

It never felt like I took Some Extra Weight when I took it with me on a Road Trip.

Although I took three Extra Batteries and Charger with Me, the Overall Weight was not to Complain about.

Canon EOS R5 will never hinder your portability.

Build Quality

The Canon EOS R5 is Built with Magnesium Alloy, Polycarbonate, and Plastic Fiber. Although the Camera is Premium, in some areas, it felt Plasticky. Especially the Port Covers.

Even though the Camera feels plasticky, the overall experience and hold are still worth the price. 

I have brought this Camera with me through various temperatures. And it Performed very well in all situations.

Ergonomics & Comfort

As I told you earlier, the Canon EOS R5 has some of the best ergonomic and Comfort experiences in the price range.

First, it has a Deep Grip like its Fellow Cameras. And due to its Lightweight, it Becomes easy to handle this Camera Confidently.

Second, Most Controls Shifted Towards the Right of the Camera. And we can say that this Camera is right-handed pretty much.

The third is an addition of a Dedicated Video Record Button. So, while Taking Photos, you can immediately Switch and Record Videos with a click of a button.

Fourth, the Dial Replaced the Previous D-Pad.

And Finally, the Touch Bar has been replaced with the joystick.

Many people were feeling Uncomfortable with the Touch Bar. The Secondary Display in Canon EOS R5 is also Smaller than its Fellow Cameras. 

You will need time to get acquainted with the changes.

Overall, it is Easy to Operate for Beginners for Daily Tasks. But if you want to get more out of this Camera, you should stick with its manual.

Menu System

The Menu System of Canon EOS R5 is a Bit more Complicated than what we Generally Expect from Canon. And part of that goes to new features available in the Camera.

Even old Canon users had Difficulty Finding Some Menu Items Because they got Relocated.

For example, many people face problems finding the Joystick Settings. And for newcomers, you will have to keep the manual initially.

But, once you get familiar with the Menu System, the Workflow Becomes Faster. And the level of Customization that Canon Provides is Helpful.

The Control Ring is one of the Many Examples.

Overall, I think the Menu System is a Bit Hard to Learn. But, you will love it once you Cross the Learning Curve.

Viewfinder

The Canon EOS R5 uses an Electronic Viewfinder. And there are some mixed opinions about it on the internet.

But, I think the Real Reason for those Mixed Opinions can be their Past Experience. They expect their Viewfinder to have No Lag.

And those who had already used an EVF think that it is Decent. I can only tell what I feel about it.

There are some weaknesses to Canon EOS R5’s EVF. But, they get Overshadowed by their Strengths.

And first, let me tell you about its Weaknesses.

Sometimes you might Experience Flickering in your EVF. And other times, you might Feel its Lag to be Annoying.

But both are Overshadowed by the Strength of having more information on EVF. You can see exactly what your shot will look like before taking the photo.

Screen & Display

Canon EOS R5 has a Fully Articulating 3.2-inch Touchscreen Display. So, it becomes a lot Easier to Navigate Through the Menu System.

You can also Touch or Swipe to Shift Focus. The Display is Sharp and Clear in Bright Daylight also.

By 2024, these Types of Screens have Become more Common and Expected in High-End Cameras.

The Build Quality of this screen is Awesome. And the R5 also has a Secondary Screen. That helps you to Change Quick Settings Without Looking into the Main Screen.

Apart from Being a Status Display, the Secondary Screen Shows you the Battery Status.

Even after being Black and White, it does its job. 

Overall, Canon EOS R5’s Display is Sharp and Clear. And it is easy to see in Bright Daylight.

Battery Life

The Canon EOS R5 uses an LP-E6NH Rechargeable Battery. And it can only Shoot about 490 Shots without EVF and 320 Shots with EVF.

But, if you Shoot in Burst Mode, you can get about 1000 Shots from this Battery.

So, it depends on How you use the Camera.

But Generally, Mirrorless Cameras Drain a lot of Battery Compared to DSLR Cameras. And there are ways to Save your Battery.

You can save your Battery by Setting the Viewfinder and LCD to Power Off Automatically after some time.

I always keep extra batteries with me, just in case.

Overall, the Battery Life of the Canon EOS R5 is Decent in comparison to what features it offers.

Connectivity

Canon EOS R5 offers you wi-fi and Bluetooth connectivity.

Also, I tried Some Basic Raw Processing inside the Camera and shared it on my phone via wi-fi. I could click and share excellent photos without any delay and worries.

It is disappointing to See no Built-In GPS System for this Price Range.

And the Canon Connect App gives you the ability to remote live view shooting. You Record a Video or Take a Photo Remotely.
