Probably because of the false advertising. No matter how hard you try you will never shoot more than 50fps with it.
Also the in camera information lies. It says 50 shots at 195 fps in .26 seconds....

If a person doesn't mind the weight, go with the EF 600mm F/4 II and an extender....
:) That cute comes with allot of work. I made the mistake of taking two of these babies home and they are twice the work.
The bird on a perch was the first thing I thought of. One of the photos I...
Way ahead of you, I was already on it.
50 shots taken at a single click at 195 fps. When I selected the 195 it said 1/2 second worth of photos. Shooting L + RAW writing to two cards I had about 4...
@DavidEccleston for the problems I was having before I sent it in across the board there were inconsistences. For what I was describing when I got the R5 back from service I was using the RF 70x200...
For Grandparents the R5 is a great camera. With extended family I have 17 of those subjects and 1 great one so I am somewhat experienced in that area.
That one is really face or head focus. I did a little reading about how it works a few weeks ago. When it can not find an eye it hunts for a face.
I did go out and try the R5 last night now that...
I have to say that if I were just taking people photos that the R5 has been amazing.
You mention birds, it would has been great at portrait distance like many that you excel at. How did it hold...
I sent the body in, got a message from Canon to call. Their initial check out showed nothing. They asked for some pics so I sent a few pics which showed how it looses focus when tracking and blows...
15 fps vs 12 fps mechanical.
Looking at the specs I see nothing of interest. $1799 for the 7D II at release, it would be $2,221 adjusted for inflation. Canon priced it at $1499, the R7 isn't at...
What many people miss when they are speculating about a new 1 series is that it is limited by the processor speed and there are just certain things Canon wants the camera to do. Some of those things...
According to the specs the R3 AF at EV -7.5. Both the 1Dx III and the R5 say AF at EV -6. If we believe in the spec fairy the R3 should do better in low light, sometimes the spec fairy doesn't...
I did some test shots tonight on one of the lab pups. The test ended about 15 minutes after sunset and started just as the sun was setting. It seems the answer is yes the R3 is better and...
I think the longer it takes to get an R1, the more likely it isn't several thousand more than the R3. If we see one soon it may have significant separation.
I had the 35mm II shooting at near wide...
I had trouble with the R5 focusing on tight areas with spot AF with good light. What I checked I would give the R3 a slight edge over the R5. I started to check it last night at dusk on the lab pups,...
My R3 showed up last Wednesday and I have been comparing the two. Last night I was comparing the spot AF to see if there is a difference between the two. The R5's box seems to be just a very tiny bit...
Doing a little cave man style testing I think those numbers may be right. Regardless that is still slow.
I wasn't implying that shutter speed would have an effect on the rolling shutter distortion, what I was saying is that just like we can use shutter speed to give the appearance of a frozen in time...
With the R3 coming on Wednesday I have been giving thought to the 30 fps and the effects of the Rolling Shutter.
My thought is that just like IS is described by the number of stops, the...
That is the reason I went ahead and ordered the R3. I do hope the R3 doesn't have this problem.
One thing I noticed about the big point, it seems that it actually focuses toward the bottom of the...
A regional camera store that has a shop in my state has had the R3 on its website several time over the last few months. Last one a few weeks ago, another appeared today. They seem to be trickling...
I avoid shooting weddings, for the most part I find them depressing.
However here are my thoughts:
The minimum requirements to be a professional wedding photographer are as follows:
1. Own or...
What is possible, without a doubt and has been done before, is a high resolution sensor in a 1 body with the build quality and superior AF system to go along with it.
They have shown with the R1...
Nope, it is not just you. It is many of us.
I thought Digital Cameras would have gotten to the point that one body can do it all. The 1Ds IV never came and will we ever see a high MP sensor in a 1...
My opinion as of right now is one of indifference, it really hasn't set the world on fire.
Even worse my opinion of the body keeps falling.
I see may positives with the R5, and it is an...
