Thank you Matt for take your time to make this video. Your words, your images, inspired me. Thanks aa lot! All my best, Bea

So happy to see opinions changing on the R as people actually use it in real world situations... It is such a joy to use especially in high stress situations...

You have convinced me this camera is for me. I was on the fence with another brand, but your enthusiasm convinced me. Thanks!!!

My question made it in there! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Canon Eos R. I think I would definitely get one if I was in the market for an SLR type camera. Appreciate your honesty as always in how you review cameras 👍🏻

One of the most honest reviews I’ve seen thus far. 🙏🏼

THANK YOU!!! I have watched many videos trying to decide if I should by this camera and your video is the only one that broke down all of the pros and cons in a way that made sense.

Hands down one of the best reviews on YT for this camera. I´m a Fuji shooter myself but I have to say that I´m on the fence of jumping systems and this EOS R is up there near the top of my list. Anyway, is always nice to hear your honest opinion. Take care and stay safe!

Congrats mate. Since they announced the R system I have it on my goal list. Glad your experience was awesome. Think the RF road-map is brilliant and gives me confidence

Hi Matt, What a great review and so good to hear some hands on comments from someone using the eos r both professionally and personally. Also, I love your photos!

Nice review Matt. I’ve been considering this for my next upgrade and this has given me a good insight. Thanks

loved this review. I just bought this camera today :) and as a newbie...I'm nervous about using it but loved how well you explained everything . thanks you!!!

Great long form video. Smooth speaking and transitions. Constant good info mixes with your interpretation. I just ordered one a couple of hours ago to pair with my a7riii. Eos R will be my daily/people/vlog setup and the r3 for landscape/architecture/real estate interiors. Excited to get it in. Following your channel. Thanks!

Thanks for the great review Matt and btw, you're a really good photographer.

This is a great review and makes me happy with my purchase in spite of some earlier reviews that it turns out weren’t really relevant to my shooting.

I really enjoyed your review on the EOS R. I have owned mine since about a month after it came out and I was very hesitant to buy after the reviews that were out on it. I started with Canon all the way back in the 80's. I had a 5D Mark 4 and kept it until I was sure I would like the EOS R. After about 6 weeks, I tried using my 5D4 and I just didn't like it anymore compared to the EOS R. So sold it and absolutely love my EOS R. Thanks, I really enjoy your videos and honest opinions.

Thank you for the honest review! I really enjoyed this and really gave me some clarification. Thank you again!

Good, honest review from a real, working photographer. Thanks Matt! I'm a Fuji XH1 shooter but the Canon EOS R caught my eye since its announcement. If I had the extra money I'd go that route for sure. Happy with my XH1 for what I need it to do, though :) Keep it up!

Man, I’ve held off on thinking about buying this camera for so long in hopes of just waiting out until the next version, but this video has got me thinking this might be my KZread camera moving forward. As always, thanks for being super genuine and honest, man!

Great comprehensive review and consistent with my experience with the camera. A few thoughts: The "screen" that covers the sensor is actually the shutter. I love that function, but critics do point out that it may make the shutter susceptible to damage. On the "touch bar" I've set it for: Swipe - AF mode, Left tap - eye detect on/off, Right tap - histogram on/off. No complaints. I'm not sure why it gives people the grumps. I'm right-handed, but a left-eyed shooter. Even so, my nose on the screen has not been a problem for me. I suppose in part I apparently have a suitably-sized nose. :-) I also wear glasses, so that likely keeps my face a bit further back.

Nice one Matt! I'm happy to hear about your experience with the camera. I picked one up a few months ago after some major hesitation due to heeding the warnings of the popular youtubers. I started to notice they all turned the corner & were using the camera themselves. Haha. I find that my EF lenses work better adapted to this camera than they have on any of my previous bodies. I also highly suggest grabbing an R to M adapter, preferably one with the helicoid. It is pretty special to use Summicrons & other leica lenses on this body! Enjoy dude!

Riley Smith Ohh, that would be fun to try out! I’ll see if I can try one out soon. And I agree, I’m seeing more and more people trying it out now. It had a bit of a rocky start. Haha.

Fantastic video. Great to see and hear real world shooting and not just complaining about specs. I don't shoot video ever and I don't care about 2 card slots so this camera might be a great fit for me as I already have Canon glass. Feels like a perfect upgrade from my trusty Canon 80D.

This is a totally great review. First review I have seen Matt do. Matt is a real wedding photographer pro. and he gives a realistic assessment of the good and bad of the EOS R with RF24-105mmf4 and the RF50f1.2 lenses in his usages. He loves the camera and lenses despite no dual flash cards and IBIS. He left the Fuji which he loved but simply loves the EOS R more and has no intention of going back. He was surprised by how useful the flipout screen was and how long the battery life was in comparison to his prior Fujis. Not you typical review and I am going to have to tune some of the the video Matt has done.

The biggest thing keeping me glued to my Fuji kit is my left eye dominance. I've always used the X-Pro, X-E and X100 lines because of the off center viewfinder. When I tried the X-T2 I felt like my hands were smushed because of how close the viewfinder was to the right side of the camera, and that's inherent to any SLR style body. The guy who actually shot my engagement is a friend of mine, and he let me play around with the EOS-R raw files and I can attest, the image quality is fantastic. I'm a strong believer that any modern kit is fantastic image quality-wise and ergonomics should determine the camera you shoot with but at the same time I'm a realist. I know that physics is physics, and an APS-C sensor is never going to match the image quality of full-frame. For what I do though, I feel like Fuji is still the right balance of image quality vs size vs price. I agree with you on the grip on Fuji Cameras, and I wouldn't even consider using any of my camera without a thumb grip on it. That was a game changer. I love my Fuji gear, but not in a tribal way. It just happens to be the right combination of assets for my needs, even if I'm aware of all of its shortcomings. I've already accepted the inevitability that someday I'm going to auction off a few of my organs to by a digital Leica M though.

Nice review Matt. I have been a long time Canon film and DSLR user but like you I also turned to Fuji for mirrorless and shot with the Xpro-2 and lots of really good Fuji glass. However, I always missed the Canon colour rendition and I purchased my EosR a few weeks after seeing it at Photokina last year. I have loved using it and it is now my goto camera for just about everything and I have new reluctantly sold all my Fuji gear. My only non Canon digital camera now is my Olympus Pen-F which I use for street photography. Keep up the good work and if you're ever in Scotland look me up.

For example, I spoke to this moron days ago,who told me that Sony didnt meet expectations with the A9/9ii upgrade.Like I told him,unless Sony themselves made documented promises,anyone's expectations are purely personal.I told him that just because a new version of a camera comes out,that doesnt mean they needed to make a new sensor.I told him that if he personally doesnt need what the A9/A9ii contributes,it has nothing to do with him anyway. Of course,as I already figured he never even owned the original A9 to even have a reference point,and he was unable to back up his statements about 'expectations' with any evidence.See,only a small percentage of shooters even make a living shooting on a professional level,as in NBA/NFL,Apple,Cosmo,or even celebrity events. The rest of us just buy what we enjoy and can make a bit of money with.I dont care what anyone's connections are,as long as they are not outright lying about gear,which is easy to check.Like you said,for example with the Z6/7,you have these people who bought it,and then babble about workarounds,because as you said,they refuse to admit they didnt get what they thought the camera was about.They defend the 1 card slot,the poor AF,and they even defend the 2 recalls,never wanting to admit they paid for a $3000 miss.

Especially portrait orientation.

Great video Matt! I have it myself I didn't like it the first days but then got used to it and now I really like it.

Interesting to hear your views on the Fuji. Sorry for complaining but is it possible not have that flashing frames at the transitions, just hard mentally to have it flashing.

Superb review Matt! Much more meaningful than the talking heads on YT trashing the EOS-R when it was first announced. I’m curious if you’ve scanned film with this yet, and how that compares to the process you had in place with the Fuji? Also have you tried adapting any M lenses to it yet? I love my Fujifilm cameras! However adapting my film lenses to them always introduces a crop factor, I like the idea of having a full frame sensor so that the FOV remains consistent and I can use a film and digital body with the same lenses. At the moment I’m trying an M240 but I’m not blown away by it, also it’s only useful for adapting rangefinder lenses, my SLR lenses I’m still using the Fuji. Keen to hear your thoughts on it... and apologies for the long message. Haha!

love my eos r! Great vid

8:22 - You mean the shutter? :D I love my EOS R as well. It's perfect for my style of shooting.

I picked up an EOS R with the battery grip & basic EF lens adapter awhile back & use my EF lenses rather than immediately investing in RF glass. I've also adapted my Leica lenses, FD lenses & even T & M42 mount lenses for the EOS R. I still have the XT-2 I bought from you and shoot with it on a regular basis, but being a long term Canon shooter I tend to gravitate back to the Canon. The EOS R was an upgrade for my 5D Mk III (I still have it) which is why I hesitate to upgrade my lenses to the RF line. Everything I've shot with the EOS R has really impressed me! My only complaint about the EOS R is that stupid touch bar on back. I'd much rather have a joystick than the bar. In fact, I've disabled all functions on the touch bar. Glad to hear you like the EOS R since you've never really used Canon before. I switched from Nikon to Canon way back in the 1980's and I've been happy with them ever since even though I really enjoyed shooting with Nikon as well. Cameras are ultimately just tools we use to accomplish our photographic vision. We shouldn't get too hung up on what's newest or has the best specs. Just get out and shoot 100-200 images a week and you'll master whatever you've got. Great video!

Dude, definitely get the grip! When I got it, it took the already great shooting experience and made it significantly better. Both for photo and video. Also, two batteries in the grip last FOREVER lol

Nice review Matt! Another great thing about Canon (for me at least) is that if you're used to shooting 6x4.5 film and/or don't like 3:2 in portrait orientation, you can shoot in 4:3 aspect ratio in camera without needing to crop afterward. I love this feature - combined with a 50mm f/1.2 it looks so much like 645 120!

I just picked up the EOS R with the 24 to 105 f4 kit lens....I love it so far.

Great review. The RP is on sale for $999 right now with the EF adapter and extension grip included which is a steal. A local brick and mortar store was doing a no sales tax weekend, so everything was $999 out the door. I couldn't pass that up and bought one.

Jacob Rohr I like the ergonomics much better, colors are much better IMO, access to RF lenses. Them you have the current price. At $999, the RP is an absolute steal IMO. That’s $300 less than the 5 year old Sony a7ii and only $100 more than the APS-C Sony a6400. The a7iii is the better camera on paper just purely looking at specs, but the user experience goes beyond specs on paper.

I love fuji I also started with the very original X100 then moved to the Xt1 then left Fuji for Sony. We use the A7Rii and the Canon Eos R for film production and the EOS R produces beautiful cinematic quality footage. Great review .)

I really love the touch bar now. I set it to change between two af modes. Right now I have face+eye tracking swiping over to single point af and right tap mapped to change the singe point af size. This works great with Backlit portraits where eye af wont find the face or eye. Swipe instantly over to single point and get the shot without fumbling around. Also mapped the lock button to only lock the touch pad.

Speaking as a Canon 5D MIV user, I can't wait for the next-gen EOS R. Right now the EOS R is little bit better than cross-grade from the 5D, but not enough to make that jump (yet). Great review Matt!

I'm also very interested in the next one, Canon might get some of my money if they do it right. I currently shoot with a 7D MkII, if the EOS-R Mk II has 10fps with good AF then I'll happily change, if they don't then they are risking more Canon shooters switching to Sony. I like Canon and have be using them since I bought my 10D in 2003, I'd prefer to stick with them if they can deliver.

Really like the way you think of this camera and the way you put out this video! Would you be able to make a video on the best bang for the buck, most advance, overall beat film cameras for a pro photographer that never used film? I would really appreciate it if you could! Thanks!

Awesome, welcome to the EOS R life. In my opinion it's easily the best photography camera on the market. There is just something special about how that RF mount catches light from the lens. Images have bit of a lifelike 3D feel to them. It's hard to explain but once you notice it you can't un-notice it. I'll give you a few tips on shooting with the EOS R. In my experience Canon and Lexar don't always play nice. If a card is going to fail in a Canon camera it's most likely going to be a Lexar. Not sure why that is but I stick to sandisk and never had an issue. Also for your vlogging check out Canon's EFS 10-18mm. It's designed for APC-C sensors but with the adapter that comes with the EOS R you can use it on your camera. Because it's designed for a crop sensor it works perfectly with the EOS R's 4k crop video. Plus it has in lens image stabilization and a plastic build so it can be used handheld and you'll never get a tired arm holding it up. I'll be making a review of it on my channel soon. Hope that helps. Cheers.

I just got this camera and lens combination used.. omg what a lens! I agree with you. Regarding one one SD card, just have the camera upload the image to your phone so you can have a back up.

Amazing review, thank you.

Great review. Definitely looking at one of these for next year. Curious, do you shoot film at weddings too? Why or why not?

Matt, great review as usual. couple things: 1) how did you find the metering? seems to overexpose IMO 2) you know you can link your phone to your EOSR and backup full size JPEG as you shoot. Its also great for people to immediately access your event pics and see them real time

I've never had any issues with exposure or metering with the EOS R. It's pretty reliable. Obviously paying more attention when shooting tricky lighting situations is needed and with mirrorless you have the benefit of having a live preview. :)

Just came across your channel, pretty good contents man. I still shoot with my good old Canon 60D 😁 & thinking about upgrading & my mind is going back & forth between EOA R & 5D Mk IV. I love the old DSLR more to be honest but the Mirror-less is the future. What do u think bro? Keep up the good work buddy, & u got urself a subscriber 👍🏻. Love & respects from Saudi Arabia

Great breakdown on your experience with the EOS R man! Was curious on what lens you had on in this video? Thanks!

Syed Uzair thank you!

Loved the video!

In case someone did not catch it earlier the EOS RA astronomy camera has the IR filter removed, all cameras not for astronomy have one on top of the sensor (when you are cleaning the sensor your realy cleaning the filter not the sensor).

Really enjoyed coming across your channel. I have only shot Canon right from my film shooting days. I’ve not used mirror less camera and always used viewfinder. This was a second body I’ve been thinking a lot about the camera. I have mostly L series glass which took yrs to build up. Canon. Glass has always been a winner with me and finally got my bucket list canon 1Dxmk2 which I love and the mirrorless one as a second. I’ve not been over impressed with some of the reviews with people jumping at the tiny toy Sony which is not for me. Canon has always worked through some tough shoots and things like quicksilver surfing motor car racing bike shows and such. But survived and original 5D is still going lol. So I’ve sub to your channel. Yes the one card is a thing yet I’ll prob take on 32 gig sd cards or wireless ssd is great idea. I find canon IS lenses work well.

Grumpy Digger thanks so much! Glad you’re enjoying the channel. I’m definitely impressed by the IS on these lenses, especially that 100mm macro. That blew me away.

I was the same way. Tried switching to Sony but there was something about the feel and look of the images that didn't sit right with me. Picked up the EOS R and loved it so much I sold everything else.

I just purchased the EOS R + RF 24-105 L for $2200 NEW. Just couldn't pass up the deal. Every time I picked up the camera in Best Buy I never wanted to put it down. It has been the only camera that made me consider replacing my Olympus E-M1 MKII setup (12-40 and 40-150 PRO). I picked up the Sony A7 III with the 24-105 F4 G and used it for nearly a month. Never felt inspired when using it and didn't feel it offered me anything better over my Oly for my use case (ISO performance was definitely better). I have a good feeling about the R though. Can't wait.
