Hi all,
I'm seriously considering getting a used 5DS or 5DS-R. My primary use for it will be landscape photography. But I may occasionally use it for architecture, wildlife, macro or people pics too.
I know the only difference is that the 5DS-R has the anti-alias filter cancellation, which allows it to render a little more fine detail. Sounds ideal for landscape. But I know that AA cancellation can lead to moiré in images under certain situations. It's most commonly seen in fabrics, in repeating lines in architecture, in bird feathers, etc. For that reason the 5DS with an AA filter might be a better alternative, possibly even at the cost of a little fine detail. Used 5DS also are selling for a little less than used 5DS-R.
I was hoping to get some feedback from folks who have used one camera or the other....
If you had the 5DS-R, did you have problems with moiré? If not, what were you shooting? If so, what was the situation and were you able to correct the problem in post-processing?
If you had the 5DS, did you ever feel a lack of fine detail due to its anti-alias filter? How did the images sharpen up in post-processing?
I realize it's unlikely that anyone would have used them both, though if someone has I'd really like to hear your thoughts. I think I've read or viewed all the reviews that discussed them both.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. No need to tell me I should be looking at a mirrorless camera instead of a DSLR, Paul.
I'm willing to take the risk that my life's purpose won't be fulfilled and I will never attain sainthood!
