Why did Canon make the EOS R3??
Canon R3 Here: bit.ly/3CeIaQv
In this video I talk a bit more in depth about my experience using the new Canon EOS R3 mirrorless camera. After a couple of hours of use it felt very reminiscent of holding my old 1DX MKII. I have to say, having that familiar pro body feel was nice but what was nicer was the battery life with this camera using the larger LP-E19 batteries. I dive into the amazing new auto focus features like Vehicle Detection and touch on my experience using the new Eye Control feature. Finally, I discuss who should buy this camera and what type of photographer would get the most use out of it. And yes, I talk about how we crashed it while mounted to a drone - somebody needs to test how tough these things are :).

Man, what a video! You never dissapoint, Peter. Next-level production quality, every single time. This video also illustrates how insane drone technology is at this point. To see that thing fly around like that with a big and heavy camera on it is just mind-blowing to me. And the R3, well, that camera is incredible. I'm in the Sony camp myself (A7R3), but I love what Canon has been doing with mirrorless lately. Their last few cameras have been just so impressive. And the colors, man. Canon just gets that perfectly right.

Nope - the technology is allowing photogs to concentrate on the all-important composition without having to worry about focussing - to my mind, that's an advantage. One could argue that I could get decent results from my Z6 & manual focus 500mm f8 reflex combo but I'd bet I'd get 2% hit rate instead of >90%. I'd also need to do a lot of PP'ing sharpening & contrast tweaks but that'a a different story.

Nah. I've shot subjects like this with 100% manual 40 year old film cameras. While not impossible, it was far from ideal. I couldn't be as creative as I wanted with composition, exposure, shutter speed, color, etc because I was constantly fighting just to get the shot at all. This is overkill for most things, but specifically for sports, vehicles, and wildlife you don't get many 2nd chances. Imagine your tracking a moose for a week in fatally cold conditions, then ask yourself again if you want features like this. Especially considering you don't have to expose your hands to adjust focus.

It looks like another great camera from Canon! Definitely a great choice for sports/wildlife photography. That being said, I'm 100% sure now this was going to be R1 before Sony released A1. The concept of the camera is identical to 1dx series (low megapixels, high speed, lightning fast focus, great video, vertical grip). I'm now waiting to see what will they do about R1. It's a wonderful time for photographers, camera manufacturers are competing like never before!
Doesn’t the R3 already matches the video capabilities of the R5 minus 8K? This doesn’t overheat makes it more practical?
I wanna reach next level photography, sometimes wedding photography make me bored 'cause everything happen in same sequence everytimes. And peter is one of my inspiration to do it. Btw the drone carrying profesional cam make my heart skip a beat

Since it is often difficult to get close to wildlife, having the 45MP of the R5 has allowed me to crop and get better close up pictures of wildlife. I use an EF converter & Sigma 150-600mm C lens on my R5. The 30 fps of the R3 might be better for birds in flight, but with 20 fps the R5 doesn't leave me feeling too deprived.

@@jimgsewell bro thank you! My only hesitation on the R5 is the overheating issues since I live in SW Florida. You’re spot on with it being hard to get close and crystal clear shots of a bird in flight, tarpon or dolphin shooting out of the water, Gator whipping and thrashing around. I use my 12 Pro Max lol so those close shots are either impossible or stupid dangerous.

@@will-beck With an R5 you won't have any problems capturing birds in flight. 😉👍 I have the R6, which has the same AF system as the R5 and it just keeps snapping on to birds in flight EVERY SINGLE TIME. I've been shooting beach volley games and just saw birds fly over, so I turned the camera up. SNAP! Bird in focus. I was shooting a rugby match and somebody flew a drone above the field. Turned the camera up. SNAP! Drone in focus. A month ago I shot hundreds of photos at an air show, and every single shot snapped the AF onto the planes. (My previous air show was 3 or 4 years ago. I then shot with the Canon 7D Mk II and it was a bit hit & miss with that one.) Two days ago I was trying to shoot a dragonfly in flight - against a very mixed background of grass and rocks. I managed to get several shots where you just saw the AF snapping on to the dragonfly and staying with it. I know that NOTHING I have owned before would have been able to capture a single frame of that dragonfly, and now I got many sharp pictures! 😃👍 The overheating should not be a problem if you're shooting 45 MPix stills.

Im actually looking forward to getting the R3 for my portrait work. Especially when working with inexperienced models/clients, having 30fps would be great to capture the beautiful expression we sometimes still miss at 10fps. While higher MP R5’s are appealing gaining an entire stop of light with the r3 can be really valuable in real world situations.
