It doesn't work with flash, because it uses e-shutter. But I use an LCD panel, which gives plenty of light, and can be adjusted for intensity and white balance.

Stroboscopic lights hasn't anything to do with the shutter.

Ordinary flash units do, if that's what you are referring to. And there you can have it working with electronic shutters too. It just depends on which camera model you get. My Canon mirrorless does indeed work with flash and electronic shutter in combination.

This canon manual page says flash is not possible with the r7, see the caution section

also there is no setting to set an interval between shots, to eg let the flash recover

you could perhaps tape over some of the flash pins…

That’s a shame really, other brand cameras do have that feature, and perhaps some other canon bodies too

Yes, the Canon EOS R3 can use flash with the electronic shutter.
