Is the M5 Canon camera has a dedicated button to turns off the screen?

Or turn off is done only through the menu?

As it now it is finish the battary sooner.

Thanks

I don't have an M5. I do have an m3 and the optional EVF. Given that the battery life is rated as the same with the screen or EVF, I don't think turning it off would save any battery unless the EVF also goes black. This is probably what Power saving mode does. I've that set on my M3 and get way more shots than it is rated for.
