Shot with EOS R5 and RF 800 lens.

The EOS R does not have that. It’s just a matter of adjusting it while looking to the viewfinder until you think it is sharp.

I now have 4 RF lenses and several EF and EF-S lenses. Since I bought the RF 24-240mm lens it is my go-to lens whenever I go to places where I am not sure beforehand if there will be something ...

Finally received my EOS R5 this week after three months of waiting. Today I finally had the time to go out and take some "real" pictures with it.

No need, I just mentioned it so people don’t get confused. ;)

It’s firmware 1.8.0, not 1.1.8. Typo in the title of the thread.

You might be right. In a lot of countries only channels 1-11 are allowed. So maybe that’s why Canon excluded 13.

That version is listed on the support site but not if you select Windows 7 as your OS. Good to know it still works although it is not officially supported.

For the EOS R5 you need Eos Utility 3.12.30 or higher. And that version only works for Windows 8.1 and Windows 10. In other words, the EOS R5 is not compatible with Windows 7.

For the R the setting is in the Bluetooth section for a Smartphone connection. There is an option “Stay connected while off”. This option toggles the behaviour for me. Think it should be the same ...

Yesterday, a R5 body was for sale on the KE website, with a delivery time of 2-4 days. After 5 minutes the status was sold out. So either someone got lucky or it was a mistake. :)

When I received my EOS R, one week after its release, the CMOS sensor died within an hour after setting it up. And I had to wait 4 weeks before receiving a replacement. These things happen sometimes.

You can also use the same app to control the camera remotely. I find that very convenient.

You can view the images on the camera using the Canon Connect app on your phone. It will create a direct WiFi link between camera and phone. At least that is how it works on the EOS R. I suppose it ...

That only helps with a defect pixel on the sensor. This will not help if the EVF screen itself has a stuck pixel.

Does any of the WiFi network names that are visible contain special characters? That might cause the issue.

Another Youtube video about this? Not even gonna watch it.

Exactly the same statement is made in the manual for the EOS R. If a camera gets too hot it can affect image quality and it warns you about it. So nothing new.

Really enjoy taking pictures of this little owl that visits us every evening.
