Step into the future of imaging by renting the Canon EOS R5 from Unicorn Films. This is a camera that doesn’t just capture moments; it defines them. The EOS R5 is a technical marvel, a full-frame mirrorless body designed for the professional creator who refuses to compromise between high-resolution photography and groundbreaking cinematography. For our clients in Delhi-NCR and across India, renting the R5 means equipping yourself with a tool that can effortlessly deliver on the most demanding creative briefs, from high-fashion editorials to cinematic 8K productions.
A New Realm of Resolution: 45MP & 8K RAW
The foundation of the EOS R5 is its phenomenal 45-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor. This sensor, paired with the powerful DIGIC X processor, produces still images with an astonishing level of detail, rich tonality, and an incredible dynamic range. It’s built for large-scale prints and offers immense cropping flexibility without sacrificing quality. But the true revolution is its video capability. The EOS R5 was the first mirrorless camera capable of recording breathtaking 8K DCI RAW video internally at up to 30fps. This gives filmmakers an unprecedented canvas, offering:
Autofocus That Thinks: Deep Learning AI
The EOS R5 features Canon’s next-generation Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, an autofocus system so intelligent it feels like it’s reading your mind. Covering 100% of the frame with 1,053 AF points, the system uses a deep-learning algorithm to track subjects with astonishing precision. Its ability to detect and track the eyes, faces, and heads of humans is second to none. Furthermore, it introduces sophisticated animal detection AF that can lock onto the eyes, faces, or bodies of dogs, cats, and even birds in flight, making this a top-tier rental for wildlife photographers and videographers.
Unshakable Stability: 5-Axis IBIS
For the first time in a Canon EOS camera, the R5 incorporates a powerful 5-axis sensor-shift In-Body Image Stabilizer (IBIS). This system provides up to 8 stops of shake correction when paired with compatible RF lenses, a game-changer for handheld shooting. It allows you to use slower shutter speeds in low light without a tripod and produces remarkably smooth, stable video footage without the need for a gimbal in many situations. This feature alone makes renting the R5 a smart choice for run-and-gun documentarians and event shooters.
Professional Build and Workflow
The EOS R5 is built to the professional standard you expect from Canon. It features a rugged, weather-sealed body, a brilliant 5.76m-dot electronic viewfinder, and a fully articulating vari-angle touchscreen. For your data, it includes dual card slots: one for the ultra-fast CFexpress Type B card required for 8K RAW, and a second for a standard SD UHS-II card, providing a versatile and reliable workflow for any project you bring to Unicorn Films.

It's a true hybrid powerhouse, excelling at both. It is one of the best photography cameras on the market thanks to its 45MP sensor and incredible AF. Simultaneously, its ability to record 8K RAW and 4K 120p video makes it a top-tier cinema camera.
Canon has released several firmware updates to significantly improve heat management. For most typical shooting scenarios, it performs well. However, for continuous, long-form recording in the highest-quality 8K and 4K modes, it's important to be aware of the camera's recording time limits.
To record 8K RAW video, a high-capacity CFexpress Type B card is mandatory. These cards have the necessary write speeds to handle the enormous amount of data. The SD card slot cannot be used for 8K recording.
It is genuinely remarkable. The camera is incredibly effective at identifying birds, dogs, and cats and locking onto their eyes with a high degree of accuracy, even when they are moving quickly. It's a game-changing feature for professional and enthusiast wildlife photographers.
It allows you to take sharp handheld photos at much slower shutter speeds than would normally be possible, which is a huge advantage in low-light situations. For video, it can smooth out your handheld footage so well that it can often replace the need for a gimbal.
