I have owned this camera for 1 yr. Absolutely love it. Only drawbacks are electronic shutter only and no weather seals. Works fantastic with RF lenses.All eye and object tracking works with EF.

I just got an offer accepted on Greentoe for $979. Remember there's no tax, free shipping, and they ship from authorized dealers.

Torn between this and the Lumix S5 also on sale. Both full frame cameras with really good photo and video capabilities. Battery life seems to be way better on lumix and the deals even come with an extra battery and tons of extras. Really torn between the 2

do you already have a camera? tbh, i'd recommend this to beginners. canon is just overall a lot more user friendly. and the EF-RF adapter allows you way more lens choice - lumix is still a BIT more limited. battery life is a concern on the canon, but 3rd party batteries are cheap and very reliable (try wasabi power)... this is coming from a lumix s5 owner (but I've also been swapping camera brands for 10 years so I'm used to this)

Amazon offers the same price with 5% credit back when using the Amazon Prime Card.
B&H also has the same price but provides a tax exemption (~9%) and an additional 5% discount when using the Payboo Card. I placed an order with B&H, and my final payment was $1,044.xx.

visit a camera shop as the ergonomics are different, the jpeg files will be different, raws you flavor to touch, the S5 is WP I believe, check the menu's of both, both huge bang for the buck. A camera shop visit will tell you everything and take your sd card to view the test shots and it should help you greatly.

EDIT: after reviewing spec's on both, the Canon would be my choice. Bonus is Canon tech help is awesome. I shot Canon for quite a few years and still use their Pro printer and the tech help knows their stuff. Other mfg's could learn from Canon support.

I ended up getting this camera over the other ones that have had deals this month on SD. Best balance of photo and video quality and features based on the reviews I saw. I got it at walmart's site though due to it being slightly cheaper and coming with a bunch of extras, and having a return date of Jan 31st in case anything is wrong or change my mind. Canon doesn't allow returns once it has been opened which is lame, except for defects. Very excited to give it as a gift this Christmas and see my wife's surprise.

Just FYI, If you shoot any indoor sports, electronic shutter is a non-starter. You will get some strange strobing effects across your photos from the lights they use. I only shoot mechanical shutter for club volleyball to avoid it.

I got an offer approved for $979 for the R8 and $1575 for the R6 Mark II. With no tax and being sold by authorized dealers, these are amazing deals IMO.
