Any photographers who want a versatile camera that can be used for architectural shots, landscapes, weddings, portraits, and nature will want this camera. It has an autofocus feature that works very well in picture mode, however, it works a little less effectively when taking video, so manual focus may be necessary. Even though the autofocus feature is a little bit slower when recording videos, the EOS 5DS R has time-lapse capabilities, which previous models have not had. When using the camera outside, little to no distortion can be seen, regardless of how much contrast is in the image.

Since the Canon EOS 5DS R digital camera is not advertised as being a video camera, the headphone jack has been removed from the body. Also, due to the fact that it shoots in such high resolution, the storage on the device can fill up very quickly. When used properly, the camera will produce zero blurry images even at fast shutter speeds when image stabilization is being used. You can also enlarge images while maintaining crisp and sharp focus with this camera. It also has excellent battery life, so if you have a long day of shooting ahead of you, the EOS 5DS R should last throughout the duration of your shoot.
