WARNING. Steer clear of this seller. I paid £2,755 for a Canon EOS R5 camera - BIG MISTAKE Not until the camera failed 6 months after purchase and taking it to the Canon repair center did I discover- 1. The camera had never been assigned a serial number or the serial number had been removed. 2. This invalidated the default one year "Canon Warranty" 3. The repair cost me a few pence under £500 to replace a failing PCB (motherboard) 4. Missing serial number threw doubt over the claim that the camera was "NEW" and its authenticity. (had it been stolen?) 5. Retrieving a serial number from the metadata of the photos, Canon advised me that the camera "was never intended for sale in the UK or Europe" 6. Seller showed no sympathy - just simply stating that their (unpublicized) warranty of 3 months had expired. 7. I telephoned Camix and asked to speak to customer services, but I was told "he" was away and would not return for three days. 8. This case has been referred to the Canon European investigation unit who are keen to know where this camera originated from.

This is a grey import and does not offer ANY warranty as far as I can tell. BEWARE!

Wow! I had a 5d mark iv, which I loved. During the first day of owning the R5 mirrorless I thought everything was strange. By the end of the week the camera was familiar and I was navigating it easily. It has now been one month and for fun I went back to the 5d mark iv today to see if it was really that different. It was crazy, the 5d mark iv feels like an antique now. Having access to the full sensor for autofocus points and animal af is way better than the old way of focusing. When animal af doesn't work the normal modes outperform too. The screen is brighter, the button layout is very intuitive (except video record on top, but you can always reassign buttons). The articulating screen is a much bigger advantage than I thought it'd be for landscapes, animals, and flowers. Silent electronic shutter is my new favorite mode; no more scaring animals or feeling annoying in quiet places such as arboretums. Self video recording is so much easier with people eye af, r5 stayed locked on eye the whole time. Some of the negatives I have are it took awhile to get used to the electronic viewfinder. The viewfinder seems to lag a bit and can be hard to view in lowlight. The main lcd display only turns off when you look through the viewfinder or if the articulating screen is turned around. Itd be nice if there was just an on/off button for it. Battery life isn't as good, but I can still walk around for 4hrs occasionally using the camera and be fine (5d mark iv batteries work). I have 1 rf lens and a 1 ef-rf adapter for all my ef lenses. The ef lenses perform amazingly and it is nice to have some IBIS for the non is lenses. This camera is so close to being perfect, and is clearly the best available right now. You can really tell that the cameras coming in the future are going to be phenomenal. If I was just starting out in photography I can not think of a better camera to own. For professionals the full sensor autofocus, extra customizations, and electronic viewfinder will be big bonuses over other bodies; allowing you to be more precise and effective.

An amazing camera! Love it!

I have used the R5 to shoot two weddings as well as multiple other hobby projects. It is a massive improvement over the Canon 7D2 that I was using for 4 years prior to this. The autofocus, even in low light is amazing, and the EVF allows me to see the changes to the photo on the fly as I adjust ISO, aperture, and shutter speed. It's almost like i'm editing in camera and it lets me be sure I got the photo I intended without needing to take time to review them on the back screen. My main reasons for upgrading were to upgrade to full frame, have a camera that would have better noise control for my astrophotography, as well as an increase in resolution for larger prints. While the R5 is an amazing camera, it is also on the high end of price ($3,900 at the time of writing this). The camera also uses one CFexpress type B, and one SD card in dual slots to record your pictures/video to. While the SD cards are more affordable for a 128GB card, the CFexpress cards were $250 at the time I bought them. In comparison, the Canon R6 is a 20MP full frame camera, is $2500 at the time of writing this, and uses two SD cards. It might be the better option for anyone who is on a tight budget, and doesn't need or want the 8K video and higher resolution of the R5. A friend of mine has the R6 and the focus and eye tracking works just as well as the R5. I did rent a Canon 28-70mm f/2.0 (R lens) to shoot a wedding and it was amazing for the low light, that being said, I have yet to buy any R lenses as I have been using my EF glass with the Canon control ring adapter and they have been working excellent with this camera. The sample images I have included have all used my old lenses and were adapted to the R5: 1. The table shot was taken at one of the two weddings i've shot, using my Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 and it has enough detail to clearly see the pattern in the fabric flowers in the jar. 2. The wavy lights shot was me messing around with the bulb settings and my remote shutter release while making some desktop backgrounds/photoshoot backgrounds (I use an old 50 inch, 1080 resolution tv on a stand, at a slight tilt to avoid glare while positioning a model in front). 3. The night sky shot was me steeping outside my house to test the noise levels that the camera creates with "high" ISO and long exposures. It was taken at ISO 3200 for 14 seconds at 24mm. I also tested the camera at 6400 and found the noise to be very acceptable, especially when I compare it to my Canon 7D2. I will put it through even more of a test during the next milky way season when I travel to Acadia and other dark sky areas. I would highly recommend this camera based on my usage. I have taken at least 10,000 photos with it since it was delivered in September. Now that i've moved to full frame and enjoy the performance of the R5 (compared to my 7D2) I don't see myself upgrading for at least the next 8 years or more.

Hands down the best camera I've ever used, and arguably the best camera body on the market.
