Title: I think this is the first camera that will actually pay for itself
Review: Wow! I had a 5d mark iv, which I loved. During the first day of owning the R5 mirrorless I thought everything was strange. By the end of the week the camera was familiar and I was navigating it easily. It has now been one month and for fun I went back to the 5d mark iv today to see if it was really that different. It was crazy, the 5d mark iv feels like an antique now.Having access to the full sensor for autofocus points and animal af is way better than the old way of focusing. When animal af doesn't work the normal modes outperform too. The screen is brighter, the button layout is very intuitive (except video record on top, but you can always reassign buttons). The articulating screen is a much bigger advantage than I thought it'd be for landscapes, animals, and flowers. Silent electronic shutter is my new favorite mode; no more scaring animals or feeling annoying in quiet places such as arboretums. Self video recording is so much easier with people eye af, r5 stayed locked on eye the whole time.Some of the negatives I have are it took awhile to get used to the electronic viewfinder. The viewfinder seems to lag a bit and can be hard to view in lowlight. The main lcd display only turns off when you look through the viewfinder or if the articulating screen is turned around. Itd be nice if there was just an on/off button for it. Battery life isn't as good, but I can still walk around for 4hrs occasionally using the camera and be fine (5d mark iv batteries work).I have 1 rf lens and a 1 ef-rf adapter for all my ef lenses. The ef lenses perform amazingly and it is nice to have some IBIS for the non is lenses.This camera is so close to being perfect, and is clearly the best available right now. You can really tell that the cameras coming in the future are going to be phenomenal. If I was just starting out in photography I can not think of a better camera to own. For professionals the full sensor autofocus, extra customizations, and electronic viewfinder will be big bonuses over other bodies; allowing you to be more precise and effective.

Title: Probably the only camera you'll need for the next 2 decades..
Review: I've been a photography for more than a decade. In the last two years I've been doing more and more video work as well. I started my photography journey with Canon. Since, I've used Panasonic and Sony. Many bodies and lenses later, I've come full circle back to Canon, and I'm so glad I did. The ergonomics are wonderful, the touch screen is perfect, menus are intuitive, and they video/photo capabilities are amazing. You will not need another camera body for at least the next 20 years. The overheating is something that I have not personally experienced. Overall, fantastic experience. There's nothing the mark 2 version offers that I feel I'm missing out on. Highly recommend!

Title: Expensive but awesome
Review: The elephant in the room is the cost and video issues. I don't do video so I don't care about that aspect and Canon has fixed some of the issues with the latest firmware releases. As for the cost, there is no getting around it. For those able/willing to accept it, you will be getting a great camera. I was an old DSLR snob for the longest time but I haven't touched my DSLRs since I got this. I primarily shoot wildlife (birds) and landscape images. The shots I get with the R5 are incredible. I opted for the R5 over the R6 knowing that I would occasionally need to crop in for some bird images. I am able to maintain quality when cropping.The eye detection is truly amazing. I am continually surprised at how well the camera detects the birds from great distances through brush and busy backgrounds. That being said, there are times where I will revert to spot focusing since the camera will sometimes miss eye focus. The autofocus is also great for locking onto birds in flight. As a long time hobbyist, I could never hope to focus quick enough. The R5 eye detection allows me to capture images I would normally not get.I also use the camera to take pictures of my son's soccer games. I can track player movement, focus on specific players in a group, capture fast moving sequences. At 12 fps in mechanical mode, I am able to stop action with ease. I did use electronic shutter and it is smooth like butter. You are essentially taking a very fast stop action video. The problem is that you don't realize how many pictures you are capturing when you hold down the shutter button. You can fill a card pretty quickly in electronic mode. I only shoot to the SD card slot and have never filled the buffer during a game.Again, this is an expensive camera but it is worth the price tag for my uses. Great image quality. Incredible eye detection autofocus. Good image quality at high ISO (not a lot of noise). Ability to use my old EF lenses with an adapter with no loss in image quality or autofocus speeds. I have used the R5 with RF lenses and they do add another level of quality and decrease weight. I am just not ready to sell all my old EF lenses to invest in a pure RF system.

Review: camera arrived in perfect condition and is taking very detailed images and excellent video. I am using this R camera with the canon RF-EF adapter and my EF 16-35mm F2.8 III L lens. I looked on youtube for help with the setup as this camera has so many menus to customize it.
