Re: How frequently your Canon EOS R5 has locked up?

I take my R5 with an RF 100-500 and 1.4x and 2x RF adapters out with me quite often birding.

I also did an air-show recently, where I tried the high frame rate with electronic shutter. Boy what a lot of pictures of the same thing you can take using that! 😂

‘Touch Wood’ as they say not had a problem with a lock up.

I have a Sony Tough 250 GB CFEXPRESS card and a Kensington Canvas React Plus V90 250GB SD card.

I used these two makes and models of cards as when I first got my R6 and then the R5, these two makes came out on top for speed.

I have 2 x 128GB Kensington Canvas React Plus SD V90 cards in my R6 and so far all has been good.

Reading through some of the peoples experiences it would appear ‘writing to card’ is a common theme?

With the expense of quality CFEXPRESS cards they are not something you want to buy too many of!

The Kensington Canvas React Plus V90’s are not too bad a price. I think they are probably cheaper that the first high speed large capacity CF cards I got for my 7D!

I wondered why the ball kept getting bigger, then it hit me.
