Gallery: Canon EOS R5 at SFU

Gallery (35 images): Canon EOS R5 at SFU

I haven't posted in a while since I have been rather preoccupied of late. However, I recently had an opportunity to shot with a brand new, not yet released, Canon EOS R5 mirrorless camera and thought I would share some sample images. This flagship model has very impressive image quality and was very enjoyable to use, offering an excellent UI and a truly fantastic electronic viewfinder. The responsiveness was impressive and detail, dynamic range and low light capability was excellent as well, despite the high-resolution 45MP sensor.

The linked gallery has 35 images, many of which were intentionally of quite high dynamic range scenes, with significant underexposure allowing for good highlight detail, then a lot of shadow recovery in post. No special modes on the camera were used, no HDR, and Highlight Tone Priority was also switched off. They were converted to DNG files with Adobe's latest DNG converter beta and then processed in Lightroom Classic v9.3 since at this time, Lightroom cannot yet read the CR3 files from the new camera directly. The high-res links in the gallery will give you JPEGs that are 4000 pixels wide, large enough to see a decent amount of detail from this superb new camera. Enjoy!
