R5 Awesome, Instructions to get going not so awesome

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've only had the R5 two weeks so don't expect to know everything about it... and I own Canon products so expected the upgrade operating to be somewhat seamless on basic operation. The lack of a starter manual was disappointing. So, I called Canon for help, and here comes their strength, the tech answered all my questions and got me going. In my opinion, the US based very competent techs is what sets Canon apart. This phone service is why I choose another Canon.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Exceptional Camera

I bought this camera after trading up from the canon 7D MkII. Wow what an upgrade. The 24-105L lens has been great. Not as good in low light as others but I knew what I was getting when I bought it. That is not a negative. Just get body only if wanting a lower f stop lens. But this kit has been great

A little disappointed in the amount of noise at slightly higher ISO. Aside from that satisfied.

Old photographer review of the R5 Mark II
on December 18, 2025
Posted by: oldjames
from Texas
I have been using the 5D Mark IV for a long time and wanted to add the R5 Mark II to do wildlife. Some of the things that I like the R5 are: 1. The Auto Exposure Bracketing will take the three photos, in drive mode, with out having to use a timer; 2. The Focus Bracketing. What I do not like is that if I have the Viewfinder only, the back screen will not come on when you press the menu button or the Playback button.IT only can be see in the viewfinder. That is coming from the 5D use that I am use to. But that is a personal issue and not the camera. all the photos are from the camera without editing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Not worth the hype

Autofocus does not work atleast half of the times, even though it is set to focus eyes. This happens even when subject is well lit, eyes are clearly visible and settings are correct and battery has full charge. I never use eye controlled focus. It is a real let down.
Noise increases rapidly as you go higher ISO levels. Clearly evident even if minor corrections are made in photoshop as bad dots and pattern on the face.
Canon DPP software makes it blurry (not sure if it is due to bad focusing or
