In the lights of the lockup / freeze events that some people experience with their Canon EOS R5 cameras, I would like to call on any members who own and shoot on a regular basis with their R5s for some feedback.

Please share if you experienced any freeze or lockups with the camera that required you to power-cycle in order to get it back running.

Any additional information as the firmware version and recording media type would be highly appreciated.

If your issue was resolved please also share your experience and how the issue was fixed.
Best,

And yourself?

My R5’s been OK so far (rolled the shot counter twice).

Mainly shooting action (birds, sports), using H+ and/or electronic shutter.

100-500L +/- 1.4x TC, and 24-105L mostly.

OEM batts, Sony Tough CFe.
