Assortment

[searching_eyes]

This assortment was taken using the ancient 5D Mark IV, after the R7 couldn't power up after sitting idle for 9 months and sent to the Canon service center to be charged 1/5 of its original price to change the mother board. Looks like ancient machine still live up to the expectations!

#4 A family of Black-winged Flycatcher-shrike

#5 Common Tailor Bird

#6 Greater Racket-tailed Drongo

Lovely varied set. Your R5 died of loneliness. Soldered mainboard batteries have become standard and give cameras about a 5 year life time.

My R7 was just less than 2 years when I discovered it dead. I was actually stunned coz my 7D, 6D II and 5D IV are still functional and kicking. Perhaps my R7 copy was not tough enough or so called cannot stand loneliness . I suspect it was not engineered to last long.....

The battery that backs up the configuration probably needs periodic charges. Stupid and/or planed obsolescence.

My 50 or so year old Brownie Jr. still works fine :-}
