5 things I love and 5 things I hate after a year with the Canon EOS R5

After a year with the Canon EOS R5, here's 5 things I love and 5 things I hate

The Canon EOS R5 was launched in July 2020 (even though many people couldn't actually get their camera until months later, due to you-know-what). I bought an R5 of my own on day one, and have been using the system for well over a year thanks to testing pre-production models from Canon.

After using the Canon EOS R5 for both personal and professional shoots over the past year, I've come to absolutely love the camera… though there are some things about it that drive me ever so slightly up the wall.
