I like that it's lighter than the Z8! As long as the DR is competitive with the Z8 at base ISO, then I'll be satisfied.
The R5 has about a 1-stop advantage over the Z8 at base ISO; hopefully going to the stacked sensor won't decrease the DR like it did on the Nikon cameras.
No it’s not. The R5 DR numbers aren’t real. They result from in camera application of NR to the shadows. This prevents anyone from measuring the actual DR of Canon cameras.
That's the story with Sony too, like with the A7S III that has a lot of NR baked in. This is what made me scratch my head when the headlines came out about the Z6 III dynamic range in video when they were shooting NRAW + NLOG, people complained about the noise, except Nikon doesn't bake in even half the NR that Canon/Sony do. When applying NR, the Z6 III dynamic range was 14.1 total DR stops according to Imatest which puts it right there with the A7IV performance.
