In this case dual card slots are a worthwhile peace of mind.įrom a cinema or filmmaking standpoint, this isn’t a deal-breaker for me.
There simply isn’t enough time to transfer data, format cards or use a laptop.

I understand there are many people who would sleep better at night knowing they have a second card slot as a backup, especially for weddings and full day corporate events. Even now on high-end cinema work, the Alexa or Red Monstro still use just one card slot. Is a single card slot a problem? For many years people used cameras with only one card slot. For recommendations on cards, check out the important video accessories for the Canon EOS R. It supports both UHS-1 and UHS-II class cards, though you might want to get UHS-II cards. And Canon menus have always been one of the better ones. So on the whole, I think the camera is fine ergonomically. For video shooting though, it’s not a big deal.įinally, there are enough customizable buttons to get everything important at your fingertips. Canon has removed the joystick, which irked a lot of photographers.
Let’s face it, it’s not especially useful. I fall in the latter category, so it won’t affect my work. However, if you’re only shooting video, this isn’t a big deal. And the same in reverse to switch back! Every other camera in this class has a quick way to switch. You have to hit the Mode button, then Info, then select Video. There is no dedicated switch to switch between photo/video mode.

If you’re using RF lenses, you can change ISO using the control ring (see below). The problem here is, unlike photography, for video the shutter and aperture (for cinema work for run-and-gun work people change aperture all the time) is usually fixed, and the ISO is the variable that gets changed the most.
Both Sony and Panasonic have a third dial that can be used to control ISO directly, and the Nikon Z6 has a dedicated ISO button. Unfortunately there is no direct ISO control, which is a shame. There is a dedicated record button and two mode dials for shutter and aperture. Whenever you need to get down low, or if you need to monitor video while the camera is up against a wall (which happens in small rooms all the time!) this is a godsend.Ĭanon has also not tried to make the camera as small as possible, so it’s way better to hold than say, an a7III, for long periods. The cool feature of this camera that the Nikon Z6 or Sony a7III lacks is a full articulating flip LCD screen. The exceptions are the RF 35mm f1.8 Macro & 24-240mm. Currently 6 RF lenses are weather sealed. The Canon EOS R ( Amazon | B&H) is dust and moisture sealed (weather resistant) with a magnesium alloy body. More information in the article on lenses for the EOS R. Finally, there’s a version of the adapter that allows you to use drop-in filters so you don’t have to buy filters of multiple sizes. The EF-EOS R adapter is also compatible with some 3rd party lenses from Sigma and Tamron. However, if you have existing EF lenses, you can adapt them via the EF-EOS R adapter. The EOS R has a new mount, called the Canon RF mount.
This is larger than Micro Four Thirds but smaller than APS-C or Super 35mm. The Canon EOS R ( Amazon | B&H) is a full frame camera with a 36.0 x 24.0mm sensor, but not in 4K video mode.
