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

I have been running onto this lockup issue recently. I noticed today that I shot through my LP-E6NH battery with no issues, and then I switched to a LP-E6 from my old 7D.  It locked up about 1 out of every 50 photos.  I will try and replicate this, and I hope this is my issue.

I am using an R5 with 100-500 with 1.4 TC and back button focus.  I am running the latest firmware.  Things seem to have gotten worse with my camera around the time they added the ability to track vehicles.

I am not a professional, but if I was shooting weddings I would be looking for another brand that is more reliable.
