Customer Ratings & Reviews

Thank you Canon for this camera I believe it’s the best from what I used in my life. Quick performance, easy navigate and great quality picture.

This camera is a serious upgrade from my previous one. Photos are sharp and the camera is so easy to use. I absolutely love this

Great camera! Easy to use, amazing photos. Highly recommend!

Purchased this camera while it was in sale for about 3,000. It's a great upgrade if you want to make the jump from Dslr to mirrorless. Purchased the body only as I wanted to figure out which RF lens would be right for me. You can buy an adaptor so your old EF lenses work on this camera too.

Hands down the best camera I've owned. I replaced my 5D Mark IV with this and couldn't be happier. Very light, easy to carry, and the photos are beautiful.

The Focusing tech makes this camera a marvel. In a low light setting at a Wedding Reception, it just nailed image after image. Do not fear the Image File sizes, I still use a 2015 Dell i7 PC and yes it is a little slower, but nothing so bad that it affects editing. I have been with Canon since 1982, dipped into Sony when Canon was a little slow with this type of focusing, but I'M BACK because of this camera. Dynamic Range is better on the Eos 5D MKIV HOWEVER these files are so darn clean. And the in-body Image Stabilization will save many an image.

I recently upgraded from 5D mark II to R5. It was amazing!! Nice body IS, auto focus and excellent image quality and ISO.

After missing out on the early shipments of the R5 this fall, it popped back up on BestBuy in December and I was able to snag one. Although I have had this camera for a month, between the holidays and the bad weather I haven’t had too many chances to shoot with this. But my initial experience shows a number of enhancements over my old Canon set up. I shot some nighttime cityscapes from a cold windy rooftop in Brooklyn in January. Although I was still largely unfamiliar with the redesigned control layout on the R5, it took little time to work through the touchscreen options to change the exposure settings while the camera was mounted eye level on a tripod. Tap the aperture box on the large LCD, then roll the shutter dial to the desired F stop. Tap the ISO, white balance, etc, and roll the dial for the same quick adjustments. My hands were freezing and I can’t imagine trying to fiddle with the various top mounted exposure settings in the dark on my old 6d. The new controls, so far, seem intuitive and certainly more visible. The 45 mp image size is just mind boggling. Take a well exposed shot, open it on your computer and the amount of detail crammed in there is hard to fathom. You can zoom/crop to just a portion of the original image and it continues to be crisp and very useable. If your last camera was a 20 mp sensor, the increase in resolution is startling. The cons - My only negative so far is this - One of the early selling points of mirrorless camera technology was that with the elimination of the mechanical mirror prism on the top of the body, the camera body was going to be smaller, lighter, less burdensome to carry on a landscape shoot, and easier to handle. That may be true, but any reduction in size and weight of the body seems MORE than offset by Canon’s RF L Series lenses. While the 70-200 may be a bit smaller than its old EF counterpart, the 15-35 and the 24-70 L Series zooms are big honking lenses that seem noticeably longer and heavier than the EF zooms. With a reduction in body size and an increase in size and weight of these lenses, the R5 feels perpetually front heavy. I’m sure I will get used to that as the months go on, but I may consider adding the optional battery grip to the R5 body. Yes that will add still more weight, but it may balance the camera better. With eye tracking focus, wicked fast burst mode, this is a great leap forward in technology for Canon.

Awesome top of the line writing this almost 2 years later while Im fixing to pick up the Mark II. This thing has performed flawlessly and has the best resolution I have ever seen.

Awesome AF, great ergo, and with the new firmware updates there has been no overheating issues with video.

upgraded from canon E0S R and the change is VERY noticeable. I was hoping the price would justify the quality and it very much does. It took my work to the next level.

This is the BEST full frame camera in the market now. You can't find any one else which provides almost everything you need as a professional photographer. The video quality has significantly improved compared to EOS R. No one can beat its 8K video, NO ONE! Sorry Sony, you are behind this time. Once Clog2/Clog3 can be added into the near future and the over heating problem can be further reduced by future firmware, this is the one you can use 5-10 years with no regret, I can guaranty you desipte its relatively high price right now.

This camera is makes taking good photos feel like cheating. Its absolutely amazing.

Flawless image quality, love the facial tracking. Purchased an adapter ring for EF lenses and it’s been a solid combo.

I'd give it 4.5 stars. The app to connect my iphone to the camera is... a game changer! However, the only downside is that whenever we are a bit too far from the camera (think ~6-10 feet), it gets... SUPER laggy and doesn't always register the click to take the picture. Therefore, I gave it a 1/2 star deduction from getting a full five stars. Pictures are obviously amazing, as you'd expect from this price point so I will not go into greater details about the quality of the photos.

Canon r5 great camera with a lot of options to make both a good quality pictures with video.

Upgraded from the 5D IV and I love this camera. Focus is great. Resolution and dynamic range is awesome.

Amaing camera. A huge game changer coming from my oldie but still a goodie 7D. This camera is incredibly sharp (at 45 megapixels), and the frame rate is incredible. One amazing investment. I highly recommend it.

Been skeptical on switching but no regrets. I owned 6D mark II beforehand(I still have it as my secondary/spare) Never tried any mirrorless camera before but when I tried it the first time, I am very impressed. I invested so much on my EF lenses and I never had any problem using thise on my R5. DSLR is not dead, but the R series is the future of canon cameras.

By far, the best camera I've owned. I used to shoot with the DSLR 5D Mark III and , yes, it was a good camera. But this one just overpowers it. Photos (using the 24-70mm 2.8) are tack sharp. I would highly recommend took a little while for me to get used to everything, as with any new camera, but it is worth it.
