Congrats on the new camera, I'm sure you will love it.

One note, I seem to remember a thread a while back about some cards causing the R5 to wake up more slowly, sometimes causing it to take 20 seconds or more to reawaken. I don't think it was linked to the read/write speed necessarily, but something to do with just some brands/types causing some issues. Maybe someone more familiar with the issue can remember?

Cheers Mike

thanks i will search about and see if i can find more info on that (although its not a big problem for me waiting for 20 second, i do slow slow stuff most of the time )

Hi barnyz,

Just to clarify, my R5 starts up just as quickly with my 170MB/s UHS-I cards as it does with my 300MB/s UHS-II cards - both being SanDisk Extreme PRO. (ie. It’s not an issue for me).

I should also add my R5 has never suffered from lock-ups under any f/w version I’ve used.

Hi, thanks, it's good to know. It's going to take me some time to adjust to a totally new camera system so the less problems the better
