5 things you should know before buying the Canon R8

* Sometimes It will say that the battery is not a Canon one or something like that but you can just open the battery door and swap the place of the two batteries and it should work just fine.

I appreciate your no nonsense approach to review which is something of a rarity in today’s market

I just bought the R8 and this is the exact video I was looking for, a straightforward review/solution video for all of the small issues the R8 has thank you +1

[jaimelimotte]

first video I have watched that mentions the extended grip and battery from the RP working for the R8! thanks!!

I have been loving my R8 since i bought it. First thing i did was grab up a 64w 30000mah USB-C PD power bank which gives me virtually unlimited record time as it can basically recharge the camera live 29 times over (you need at least 30w PD for it to work when the camera is on though). I already have a gimbal which compensates for lack of IBIS and generally looks better than IBIS. And this camera with vintage lenses are a match made in heaven. I bought a vintage L series FD mount zoom for 110$ on ebay, and a tack sharp takumar prime that gives a cyberpunky aesthetic. I also have the Helios 44M-4, though mine has a flaring problem that is not great. But pairing this sensor with cheap vintage glass is 100% the way to go and will squeeze even more savings out of an affordable body.

As an even cheaper alternative to the Tamron 15-30 f2.8 is the Tokina 17-35mm f4. You lose a stop of light but its less than half the price of THAT and less than 1/4 the price of the 15-35 and the R8 is already pretty good with low light so for under 400$ you won't find a better zoom. (at least without going vintage and losing autofocus)

Thank You🙏🏽 I’m just starting my stock photography journey. I think this is a good starter, for what I am trying to achieve….Your video really helped me out 😍

I had to watch a few previous canon R reviews that were leading me to believe canon blocked others making lenses so I was shocked to find there are other lenses available. Now I can confidently get the Canon. Thanks my man.

[MaxwellBoulton]

[stanleygabrel]

Finally, someone mentioned about digital look from this camera. That's exactly what I was seeing watching samples of pictures and videos.

[garrickbradley]

Thank you for dropping serious knowledge. Ha! After only listening for 1 minute, I subscribed! I love following smart people. Thank you!

@0:43 Not many people mention the digital look and how too sharp is not necessarily better. I have noticed this too when comparing older sensors. Often, if anything, people mention how lenses are sharper or a sensor being sharper is better. I used to have an older cheap Canon HR10 that recorded to mini disc dvds. The look from that was filmic, without even trying. As newer ones came out, they only got more digital.

the decision to buy a camera seems really complicated. I always learn from your videos though. I am really considering the R8. I want usable video in 4k and be able to take product and family photos... R8 + which lens do you recommend
