Thank you for this extensive review and the interesting insights it gives!

One note:

I recently bought an iPad (my first private Apple device). The wifi connection sucks indeed, drives me absolutely crazy.

However, it seems to be an issue with iOS and the way it handles wifi connections and app access rights etc. Tried it once with my iPhone SE2022 from work, same issues. On Android, however, I've been using the wifi connections to Canon cameras for many many years without issues. Super stable. Maybe it makes sense to look for an Android tablet for your customer presentations.

I would like to second that experience. I have a fairly old Android tablet (Galaxy Tab S2) and it connects to R5 without any issues consistently. Admittedly I don't need to do this often but any time I tried everything worked as expected.
