Would this be a fair back up for an R5? It would mostly be used for time lapse. I can't justify an R6 for time lapse. I have sent my 5DSR to MPB to sell if they agree on my condition assessment.
Who has an RP?
- Thread starter Ben Egbert
- Start date
Don’t have one but going just by the specs it should work fine. The controls are a bit different but nothing that should be deal breaker. It’s smaller and lighter than R6 and does all the 4K stuff that R6 can do.
Thanks Jameel I considered a eom6 but I gave all my eom stuff to my daughter
But does it have exposure smoothing?
That's a great question. Canon does not say much about it. I have looked high and low for it in the R5 manual and menus but can't find a thing. Obviously it does in video mode.
That is right. Nowhere in the manual. However is one generation before the R5/R6 both in sensor tech (probably not too different than 5d4 which is much improved over 5DsR) as well as their processor. I’d would be surprised if it didn’t have exposure smoothing.

According to this article the RP does have this feature. The 5D4 doesn't.
Hmm. It mentions this as part of focus bracketing.
Yeah, it's odd it's a part of Focus Bracketing. That's not Video. And it has it as a On/Off toggle, so if it was included in the Video performance, you would think that there would be an On/Off toggle for it in the video setup as well?
I have seen this and I don't think it works in Time interval mode. I would be really surprised if the RP does not have exposure smoothing in video mode
