The Canon EOS R5 is a landmark camera from Canon. It's the first full frame mirrorless camera to shoot 8K raw video along with 4K at an impressive 120 frames per second. What we're really impressed with is how well this camera produces color. This is why in our latest video, we show you how to get the best color and image quality out of the Canon EOS R5.
Canon cameras are well known for producing some of the most loved color. This is why so many photographers and videographers continue to shoot with Canon. Fortunately, it seems Canon has continued to develop its color algorithms, because the Canon EOS R5 produces some of the best-looking color we have seen from a full frame camera.
The problem is that if you import images from the Canon EOS R5 into Lightroom, the available color profiles in the software will not do the best job. At this stage, there are currently no Canon-specific color profiles available in Lightroom, and the software will default to using its own Adobe profiles.
These profiles leave images looking strange and somewhat ugly, and although you can use a ColorChecker Passport to create profiles, the results are still not great. A good alternative is to use Capture One due to the fact that it contains Canon-specific color profiles. There is also the opportunity to create custom ICC profiles with the ColorChecker Digital SG, although these do cost money.
The best option when it comes to results is Canons' own proprietary software, Digital Photo Professional 4. This software is available completely free if you own a Canon camera, and with it, you can unlock the full potential of the Canon EOS R5 camera.
Check out the video linked above to see the difference and also how to use Canon's software to get the best out of the EOS R5.
