Canon EOS R5 to Feature IBIS and Shoot 20 FPS, 8K Video

Canon EOS R5

It is no secret that Canon has been pushing its development efforts hard towards its mirrorless system. The company has already pointed out that it will not develop any more EF lenses for its DSLR cameras, unless there is significant demand from its customers. With all the development efforts shifted to the mirrorless RF mount, it was a matter of time until the company announced a high-end mirrorless offering. Today, Canon announced the development of its flagship mirrorless camera, the EOS R5. This camera is going to be absolutely insane in terms of features, with in-body image stabilization (IBIS), continuous shooting speed of 12 FPS (20 FPS electronic shutter), dual card slots, and ability to shoot 8K video.

Nikon Flagship DSLR Camera Comparison (D3, D3s, D3x, D4, D4s, D5 and D6)

Nikon D6 vs D5 vs D4s vs D4

After I posted the article comparing the Nikon D6 to D5, a number of our readers emailed me with a request to make a comparison table with the last four generations of flagship Nikon DSLRs. I thought it was a great idea to put something like this together so that our readers can fully understand all the key differences between these cameras, which will hopefully help them to decide whether it is worth upgrading or not. While at it, I also decided to include the other three full-frame flagship cameras.

Attempting Realistic Tabletop Landscape Photography

Tabletop Landscape Challenge Thumbnail

This is one of the more unusual videos I’ve made so far, but I might just be happier with it than any other I’ve done. My goal was pretty simple: to take a realistic “landscape” photo on my kitchen table.

Nikon D6 vs Canon 1D X Mark III

Now that the Nikon D6 has been officially released, it is time for us to take a look at how it compares to its main rival, the Canon 1D X Mark III. Both cameras are aimed at professional sports and wildlife photographers, and both appeal to their own niche audiences from particular brand. So it is not really a question of which camera is better, as photographers from both sides are not likely to switch brands. The point of this comparison is to simply see which brand is aiming higher with their flagship product. Keeping this in mind, let’s take a closer look at the key specifications of the two cameras and compare them side-by-side.
