If you can deal with the presentation style, Jarod Polin has released a comparison review of these cameras to get those of us who are stuck with a decision as to where to go.  If you are looking for a reasonably detailed overview, you might find it worth a view.

Hello again, TREVOR

Thanks for the detailed information. I think the R5 Mark II may have the same seal as the Original R5. I wonder what it really looks like. I hope Lens Rentals and kolarivision can disassemble the camera and see the details.

Thank you.

cheers, BORA

I expect they will - in time.  The R5 is considered to have exceptional sealing - which was rather the challenge with regards heat retention!  In the R5II, by having this space that is sealed in terms of material ingress: either from moisture or dust, but is a thermally highly conductive heat sink with a stand-off out layer for operation, they will hopefully get the best of both worlds.

Hahaha, I like the part where you said "if you can deal with his presentation style". I watch his videos and I checked this one yesterday. These are 3 good cameras and picking one of them is more like an economical decision than anything else, at least in my case. I love everything thing on the R3 but the size of it! From the R5 series I do not like the resolution, it just does not work for me that many MP. It will slow down my post editing process a lot and on top of that will make create a problem with storage of those high resolution pictures.
