Not cheap ; Dual memory cards will require investment ; Recording limits for video shooting

Canon's best ever stills camera, the EOS R5 is an incredibly powerful tool for almost every kind of photography. While that versatility doesn't quite extend to video, it is still a compelling hybrid option if you're aware of its limitations. The only...

Canon EOS R5 review: An absolute powerhouse

This full-frame mirrorless camera is an absolute powerhouse, delivering top image quality, autofocus and in-body stabilisation performance. There are

Supreme autofocus modes - the tracking for humans/animals is impressive ; 12fps mechanical burst ; Super-detailed 45-megapixel images ; In-body image stabilisation is excellent

Overheats in high-end video modes - will limit in-camera record time ; Easy to move focus point by accidental screen touch ; It's obviously pricey ; CFexpress card adds to cost

This full-frame mirrorless camera is an absolute powerhouse, delivering top image quality, autofocus and in-body stabilisation performance. There are some hiccups with high-end video recording overheating, the body-only asking price is high, and the...

Canon EOS R5 review: It holds nothing back

It may have taken two years to get it right, but the 45MP, 8K-shooting Canon EOS R5 proves that Canon knows how to be a leader in mirrorless cameras.

Excellent, 45MP photos ; Impressive 4K/8K video modes ; Responsive subject-tracking AF ; Good 5-axis image stabilization ; Excellent build quality

Control layout could be improved ; Can overheat in video mode ; Risk of banding at high ISO
