 What is up guys and welcome back to the John and Q channel thanks so much for watching and today's video We're talking all about this camera right here the Canon the Canon EOS R me brief you really quick This is not an in-depth review just yet that will come later This is just me owning this camera for one whole month and kind of my overall review so far And how I've been dealing with it and telling you guys what I like about it What I don't like about it and so let's just let's just get right into it So here it is the Canon EOS R. It is super light look at this Look how tiny and small and compact this thing is like can fit in my pocket and it's just mmm And I'm all about compact. I'm all about like on the go like get it out of the bag I'm like get pictures get video and all I bought this camera used and it was less than two thousand dollars So to get a pro camera a pro Canon DSLR for under two grand is just owning it for about a month It's really it's been great for me as a photographer and a videographer I've used this camera for two things and that's professional shoots and Overall vlogging now like not doing it with this video obviously right now I'm shooting on the Canon 60 mark to but everything else that I do is on this thing the Canon EOS R Because I transitioned from the Canon 60 mark to to the EOS R There was a little bit of a learning curve not the menu system because they're both Canon But the layout and the buttons of everything so they can get to camera settings to video settings There's a little a little bit of a quirk here in there But you kind of get used to it for example the Canon 60 mark to I could switch from video to photo Just like that. There's a little knob here that I could just switch right but with the Canon EOS R You kind of have to do this so right now. I'm in photo mode if I wanted to get to video mode I can't just switch a button because there's no button for it, but I would have to let me say this Customize in my EOS R to fit my specifications from switching to video and photo and space versa So my customized bar if you will or buttons is the star and then info when I press star and info Hold on so when I press star and info and then the shutter button it switches over to video mode Now if I wanted to go back to photo mode, I would do star info shutter button And I've driven back to the photo mode. That's a little bit of a hassle, but it's okay It's not that much different from shooting like this and then okay. Hold on. I have to go to video mode Taking my right hand or left hand and then going and switching those and then going back to my settings from my photo or video Shoot so it's really not that much of a difference But I did notice it where it kind of was like oh kind of a bummer I wish that photo and video switch were there so take it for what it is But that to me it kind of bothered me going off of the controls and the buttons and the customization This camera is full of customization Wow can customize this camera to what you need as I've already done and all these buttons and now I'm obviously still learning You can get different things you can customize your camera to what you want But like something to know it is the record button is no longer again on the back of the camera It's up here and it's it's not annoying But it kind of isn't knowing and if you're someone like me who's always on the go and needs to switch from photos to video with Like just like that I want to be able to rely on the camera as I did with the Canon 16 Mart 2 and press the record button with my thumb Now I have to like Think about it, and it's actually my finger. It's you might think it's not a big deal But again when you're out shooting You're already your thumbs already back here, you know as you're already shooting your thumb is back here And you can't really press record you have to think about it, and it's actually up here And it's not next to the shutter where your finger is, but it's like behind the shutter So you have to actually think about it as you're shooting video mode I go to star info shutter button switches over to video then I send my index this my index Then I send this finger back here, and I press record. It's kind of like look I kind of have a take a weird It kind of seems like I'm doing this video and I'm ripping on the USR I'm not but these are things that are coming to mind that I kind of dislike about the R and something that's different Then my 6D Mart 2 and that's this right here the mic input is now down here on the Canon 60 Mart 2 It used to be up here, but this is for something else So if you come down here, you want to put in a mic input or microphone You just take this little rubber off And you you stick it in there, so it's kind of like Why would you do that and I you're like why would you mention that well because of this? Let let me show you you got your microphone or whatever eighth inch you have you plug it into the mic input And you bring out your camera screen, and you want to tilt it towards you. Oh, no What am I gonna do? And I literally thought oh, no I just spent like two thousand dollars on a camera that I can't swipe the screen because my stupid Eighth inches in the way my stupid microphone cord is in the way What am I gonna do so again? I have to think about it, but in order for me to flip it out I have to like I have to bring it towards me flip it and then bring it out But still it's enough to really irritate me like okay. I really want to see what that looks like, but I can't Can't get us out to bring it back tilt it towards me, and then I'm good to go This is small things can and like I just I don't know why you did that and obviously when you get the EOS R It's a new mount. It's a whole new system for different lenses So your normal EF lenses don't really fit natively on the camera So you have to also purchase this adapter, which I picked up for I think a couple hundred bucks It came with the camera. I'm pretty good deal this adapter allows me to use different glass Like this and I can still put it on there autofocus works just as well as it would be natively on the camera And it's super fast focusing like all that stuff is still good to go Versus like having a Sony and putting an adapter like this kind of hunts for that focus doesn't really know what to do with itself But when I put native lenses with native camera and camera body and system Can't complain one other point and one other thing that I do appreciate about the EOS R is this When you turn it on it does this And when you turn it off it does this I love that Yeah So this little screen door or cover over the sensor really acts like a safety feature and for me It's like I have less OCD about covering and I still cover my sensor obviously But it's just like oh this little cover is covering it So I don't have to really think about it as hard or as much So my overall experience and like the first month I've had this camera is good. It's not bad I will say it's a little bit better from the Canon 16 R2 as far as image quality and like the first video that posted I saw an instant like whoa It actually looks really good compared to my Canon 16 R2 and people have like texted me and saying hey Your videos look a lot better after the USR. My wife was like, oh, I see the difference Now I don't know if it's because it's a new camera and you can like quote-unquote see the difference kind of thing No, no, don't do that the overall. Yeah, but both photo and video quality I'm impressed and I love the camera other than that the few you know buttons and scrolly things and you know being able to customize your own Settings, I'm still getting the hang of this camera, but it's by no means more difficult to deal with it's actually easier Especially because it's so light paired with the L lens just like this I mean it's super light super compact. I can get the job done professionally and Really really well. I'm gonna pull a jerrypole and Smells like a camera. So I like it One thing I do appreciate about the EOS R it takes the classic batteries now I did I was trying to get into the EOS RP But then I realized that those batteries are like this small and last like 30 minutes These things will go out for five six sometimes seven hours on a full video and photo day So it's plus you can use your Canon 16 R2 or an E. You can take your other camera bodies that take the LP EN6 battery and use that for your EOS R So for that thank you Canon you did that one of the things I don't use on this camera is the one 4k not yet And to I don't use the 120 FPS only because it shoots in 720p I don't use 720p. This is the day and age of 1080 and 4k. I already use 720 It would have to be the right setting and have to be all in manual focus with the right lighting I'd have to control the situation. I can't just go out and shoot like really cool pieces of slow motion in 720 At 120 frames a second if it's not gonna be that level of quality I'm used to or my audience is used to so one thing You should know nope. Nope. Nope. Nope, buddy. No, please no So if you're looking into the EOS R for the height of specs hi, buddy Maybe this camera is good for you, but you might want to rethink the 120 frames per second. What's up, bud? Ethan is gonna say hello overall. Yeah, that is my one month review Kind of a short review kind of what you should expect with the EOS R and in another three weeks After I've done some more project with it and kind of traveled I'll do a full review on what I do think about this and how I like it How it's worked for me as a photographer videographer and all this other stuff So thanks so much for watching. I'll catch next time on the Johnny Q channel. Peace
