It would be great to have the R3, however I am still learning everything on the R5.

You’re not serious ?

Cameras such as the R5 are designed to appeal to a very broad spectrum. Learn only what applies to your own use ... or your head will explode :-0

But this is an R3 not an R1 which I'm assuming is on the drawing board now and will be even more money.

Canon messed up by not giving it 2 fast card slots. What are they thinking?

Maybe they know something you don’t know ? Why ask the herd ? Ask Canon. They don’t bite !!! I always called my product manager at Canon to wish him Happy Pearl Harbor Day and we would have a nice chat.

Just received an email that says the new R3 has been released.


The Canon R3 is Gorgeous. But I have held the Canon 1Dx and Nikon 6D and the Hasselblad H5D. Yes they are all wonderful. However, if I purchase any one of these beauties I shall be sleeping outside with the dog.

My wife said she would enjoy the silence and I responded it’s just like camping.

Personally, I am quite happy with my 5D Mark IV and my 1v-HS.

This is just for bragging rights. I tend to scan the frame with my eyes looking for other compositions and changing action. So this eye-focus wont work for this pro. Most pros would NEVER use this eye-focus (Canon had this feature once before and it was crap).

No working pro would ever rely upon this eye focus feature to lock focus for any critical news or sports shot. Amateurs will have fun with this feature.

I know fellow pros who shoot Canon and they laugh at this and would just turn off this eye-focus feature if they bought the R3.

Canon knows they have to have a few trick features to hype his camera to keep current Canon users from going to Sony or other brands.

This R3 is going to be a very good release for Canon, bringing EOS 1D users to mirrorless. But, no it is NOT a ground-breaking release for photography with many of its features having been introduced by Sony years ago. lol

And the upcoming Nikon Z9 will also surpass this R3 in many ways.

If you love and use Canon be happy. If you like other brands, relax, this camera is not worth switching out of your current system to a Canon R3. Just the facts.

Cheers

Z9?
Nikon's best effort vs a second tier Canon camera.

Ha Ha!

Bentley is a Labrador/Dalmatian mix. But his spots are on his belly.

The R3 is worth drooling over. It is beautiful but I am happy with my 5D Mark IV.
