The Morning After: We test Canon’s new EOS R5 II

If you’re after a high-resolution mirrorless camera, most folks in the know will point you to the Sony’s A1.

Engadget’s Steve Dent knows a thing or two about high-end cameras, and he’s spent the last few weeks using the $4,300 shooter. It isn’t perfect, but he was impressed by the faster shooting and better autofocus, especially given the A1 is a lot more expensive.
