Canon eos r5 mark ii vs canon eos r5 c?

The Canon EOS R5 Mark II and the Canon EOS R5 C share the same 45-megapixel full frame sensor and the RF mount, so every lens on one fits the other. The difference is the body. The Mark II, announced in 2024, has stabilisation built in. The R5 C, from 2022, is the same sensor in a fan-cooled video body with no in-body stabilisation, so you'll want stabilised lenses for slow shutter speeds.

For stills and handheld shooting, I'd pick the Mark II. If you shoot mostly video and want the fan for long recordings, the R5 C is the one to look at. Either way, these make a sensible everyday kit:

• Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM for a versatile standard zoom
• Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM as a cheap, light portrait lens
• Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM for reach and telephoto portraits
