EOS R - Flawed EVF
6

Hi,

Continuing my experimentation with the EOS R I stumbled upon what seems to be a fault in the EVF of the EOS R series.

The EOS R EVF seems to have a kind of second screen inside that reflects in reverse whatever it is displaying.

The issue is that when you shoot with a bright source in the frame the effect becomes more obvious as it will reflect on any dark area.

I took some pictures to illustrate the phenomenon.

It's the first time I am seeing this kind of reflections in the EVF of a camera both in shooting mode as well as when reviewing the images.

I have 2 Canon EOS R with me at the moment, from different sources and both exhibit the same phenomenon. The brightness of my EVF is set at maximum but I can also see the reflections when set at medium.

Did anyone observe this as well? Its's distracting and I was expecting better of a camera at this price point.

Thanks!
