I Switched to Canon RF Lenses and the R5C because...
I made a big life decision and finally purchased a Canon R5C… in November of 2025. I am also switching to Canon RF lenses.

Book a 1:1 Documentary Consultation for your Short film: https://stan.store/monellifilms/p/doc... *Space and Time Slots are Limited* This video will be all about why I bought the R5C over the newer Canon C50 cinema camera and Canon R6 Mark III hybrid camera. I will also explain why I finally decided to go with Canon RF lenses. The R5C has an 8k sensor and this camera can shoot 8k60p internal raw in video mode (especially with the new Canon LP-E6P batteries) but doesn’t have open gate, which every videographer, cinematographer, and filmmaker appears to all of a sudden need. What do you think? Did I make the right choice? Do you use RF lenses?
