On a side note : the latest G5X mkII from Canon finally accept power over usb (shooting while charging).
I hope it's a sign of evolution for future EOS bodies!

Dumb question, how do you know if it's charging while shooting?

Mine (plugged into MacBook) lights up with the charge light when plugged in (and camera is off), but the light doesn't stay on when I turn on the camera...

I suppose I can wait till I have a nearly or totally dead battery (it's full right now) and try?
