- Is the R5 II worth it over the original R5?
- Yes for action and video shooters. The stacked sensor, faster readout and improved autofocus are real gains, while stills image quality is close to the R5.
- How does it compare with the Nikon Z8?
- The R5 II has the edge in video features and stabilisation. The Z8 offers a deeper buffer and a wider native lens range at lower cost.
- How is battery life?
- Modest for a camera this capable. Heavy burst and 8K use drains the battery quickly, so carry at least one spare.
- Does it overheat when recording 8K?
- It can after long continuous 8K takes. Shorter clips and the heat-management settings avoid most warnings.
- What lenses fit it?
- It uses the Canon RF mount and also accepts RF-S lenses, though those crop the full-frame sensor.
- What is in the box?
- Body, battery, charger, strap and body cap. A lens and memory card are not included unless a kit is specified.
