    Wish I could get less blurr with my 2 Canon cameras and I'm not sure how to program them both really or maybe some good general all round settings to try. on both mind you that could be tricky I guess with lighting and weather conditions..

    Great review - I'm a birding photographer - but it just left me wanting more. For example - can I use the Priority Subject meant for people - for birds?

    Im no expert but i've noticed one thing while everyone abuses the system at their own advantage. While people were complaining all over the place that you can't get BIRDS IN FLIGHT photos with the GFX 100 II + 500mm new lens, only if they're stationary here comes Canon to publish a successfull advertising vid about bird photography where absolutely no bird was flying 😂 and all the "experts" are happy go figure. But how do you know how good the AF is, where the GFX failed so miserably if the birds here are stationary? I'm not a fan of any brand, i have canon, sony, and the AF may be a lot faster on canon vs GFX but...isn't this world some sht? Btw, i don't mean to disrespect, great video for what it is you did a good job. I was just calling for some justice in the fanboys world. 🎉🎉

Your communication was very easy and clear to understand and I really appreciated how you just got straight to the point as videos like this can usually be very boring. Also thank you for incorporating visuals into your videos as these are extremely helpful. Thank you :)

    So, theres a live histogram in a camera, but should we take a picture when the live histogram assumes a good shape? Which shape it should be? Moving to the right for future lightroom editing? What if we adjust the camera settings to achieve a good histogram without future editing on lightroom? How the histogram should be look like? Thx

It came with a 55-300 zoom and i purchased a 500-1000 mm You answered all my questions on how to set up the manual shot in just this one video, can't wait to watch your other videos thank you so much sharing your knowledge and expertise. Your detailed and hands on demonstrations for me, were perfect!!. I understood how to operate it in seconds😊😊🙏 🙏 Sincerely Chris.

    I find it odd that Canon saw fit to challenge the R1 with this camera while they hamstrung the R6 ii so it didn't steal sales from the R3. I can see many people choosing this R5 ii over a R1 so why did they protect the R3....

    5 second pre-record? I thought it was .5 (half) a second. Also, do you know if it now has over-bright blinkies? No one has mentioned it and I can't believe the V1 didn't have the option.

    Where's the built in ND filter? Oh, just screw it on your lens. No overheating problems either, just buy the optional extended grip. I'm really excited about 40fps, just what most of us need. It's really going to make a difference!🙂My pictures and video are going to look so much BETTER after I dump the R5 and upgrade, yeah!

    A question about the pre-capture feature. I understand that it captures half-second of frames at the current burst rate when you push the shutter half-way, and when you push the shutter all the way it commits those to memory and then continues to capture sequential frames as long as you keep the shitter depressed. My questions: 1) If you do not press the shutter all the way but instead let it back up, are those frames lost or are they permanently stored?, and 2) Is there a limit (other than buffer capacity) on how long you can continue to capture images once you fully depress the shutter? I am planning on trading my OM1 for a new R5II and want to understand the differences. Thank you.

    But no live histogram on zoomed photo review... no same direction delete... so crippled on expected basics. Let alone proper FEL, but that's just us - event photographers.

    got no idea why canon can continuously continue to be such a loser with their gear, they put out body after body but they are doing squat in the way of affordable lenses, what is the use of having a body with no lenses to look through, the 100-500 is laughable same as the F/11's, you are ridiculous canon

    Hi Paul, you're one of the first to explore the R5 II wildlife capability, thanks a lot for that! What I am absolutely keen on to see is if the hybrid camera (i.e. video) has enhanced for wildlife. Is the eye controlled AF also available in video mode or switched off like in the R3? Is the AF case setup disappeared like in photo mode or what's up on this hybrid side of the camera? Which slow motion speeds will be available in HQ downsampled 4K from 8K? The 5 seconds pre-capture and CLOG2 are IMHO the only feature that are really a highlight from the feature list, but overheating seems to be a real issue when using slow motion. 15 to 25 minutes in 120P is nothing when having a wildlife session in standby waiting for the one-and-only action to happen. So there remains plenty of room to explore the R5 II, what do you think? KR Ralf
