    "Go big or go home" was my motto for buying this over the R6, however if you're only looking to upgrade for photography only, you will be just as pleased with the R6. If you have the money, the extra MP might be a nice to have for you.

    I’m a professional photographer and upgraded from the Mark IV. I love the R5 so far! It’s lightweight and works beautifully. The colors don’t seem to off from the Mark IV in post processing, so editing has been a breeze!

    This was an upgrade from my canon 5d mark3. And boy, it didn’t disappoint. The eye detection is on point and makes it so much easier to get the shot. The colors are beautiful and it’s so much smaller and lighter too.

    It is amazing and easy to use. I advise every photographer to own it, and it is even useful for non-photographers due to the ease of settings and image quality.

    Replaced an old 50D body with this one. You will need an adapter to use your old glass but this body can do just about anything. Using it for sports and rarely do I miss the shot anymore, the speed of this machine is amazing.

    Super quality images from a great Canon Mirrorless

    As a professional photographer for over 25 years, the switch to mirrorless was not something I wanted to do. However the canon R5 absolutely was the best quality option at this time to start to use mirrorless instead of DSLR technology. The R5 produces superb quality images, great video quality, and ultra fast focusing. If you are a professional photographer, or someone with alot of extra money and looking for a superb digital camera this is absolutely something you should consider.

    As a professional photographer, I must say that this is the best body I have ever used in my career. Yes, it is expensive. Yes, it is a complex machine. Yes, I’m glad I bought it. Paired with RF glass, the images are stunningly sharp.
