Hello everyone,
I’m a new editorial wedding photographer. And i like the style very much and have shoot 2 weddings with two canon R8 with 28-70 f2 and 85 f1.2.
I just upgrade to R5 for more resolution and double cards slot. I felt that i didn’t used the 85 at all so i sold it. Now i need another lens that fit into the style together with the 28-70 f2. I have the 35mm 1.8 and 50 1.8. I need a light lens so i can do off flash handheld camera in right hand and flash in the left cause i don’t have an assistens. I think like i need fast lens also for natural light but i feel like my rf 28-70 f2 is enough if i put it on the r8 cause it handle low light situation better if i pump my iso.

I want to use just RF lenses I’m standing between and i kan choose just one for the moment.

Rf 15-35 2.8
Rf 14-35 f4
Rf 24 f1.4
Rf 50 1.2

Do you have any suggestions or advice?

Hi everyone,

I really need help here. I bought a new r5. I can't get sharp pictures from that camera no matter what settings I've tried. I've read almost all posts on google and other forums. I still don't understand what's wrong. The same lens with my r8 is razor sharp. I'm a wedding photographer and I thought about upgrading for more resolution and being safer with dual memory cards. I'm not happy with the result no matter what I shoot. I've updated the software on the camera to the latest according to Canon, but not the lens because I couldn't find an update for it. I've tried high shutter speeds but the same results and changed the shutter mechanism and it's the same result, IBIS on and off lens aberration, I tested it all. I see other wedding photographers using the same camera with the same lens and they swear by it. What am I missing here? The pictures are also blurry when I use flash which I don't think is logical. I'm thinking of returning the camera to the seller and changing to something else like r6iii if I don't find a solution for this.
