Hello, I have rented an EOS R5 with the RF 800 F/11 lens, and I'm trying to get as close to 20 fps as I can. The best I can do is around 16 fps. Based on my research, here are my current settings. If you can think of anything else I can try, please let me know. Thanks so much! (p.s. first time shooting Canon).

Canon RF 800 F/11 lens

  • Manual focus (physical lens switch)
  • Stabilizer off (physical lens switch)

Canon EOS R5 body

  • High Speed Continuous+ shooting mode
  • Manual shooting mode: 1/2000, F/11, 6400 ISO
  • Electronic shutter
  • Airplane mode on
  • Anti-flicker shooting Disabled
  • Recording RAW to CFexpress card (Sony tough card), and L jpegs to SD card (ProGrade Digital UHS-II) . I tried with SD card removed and it didn't help.

Hi explummer,

The conditions for shooting at the maximum burst during high-speed continuous shooting can be found here - pan down for Electronic Shutter.  This was last updated in July, 2020, so there’s no mention of the RF 800 f/11.

I’m not sure where this takes you, but there you go...
