I share your view, unfortunately. Only this mod will be able to save the grace, that is, if they won't limit the thing again with some other crippling measure to prevent it in the meantime... You CANNOT trust them. Never. End of story : (

I am sincerely in rush to buy one. I fully understand and support this fight against Cannot, but not mine. Really. My craft is my playground. Hope and still waiting for your finds @Andrew Reid, @mechanicalEYE as well from any other R5 user over here. Eagering to know the overheating limits for sure, temperature behaviour on different scenarios. 50 minutes?! ... with such conclusion next to follow: "The camera never got hot to the touch, cooler than my MacBook Pro the whole time." ~ Andrew Reid This is really an impressive piece of hardware I confess I am unable to resist...

$500 upgrade premium is too short for their greed... Sad but true.

The difference is in the filmmakers community Andrew serves : ) EOSHD is not in the same category of ANY YT channel out there :- )

Absolutely! Andrew has just entered in the camera history IMHO... Selling more camera units to them : X Sorry mate ; ) but this time you got the full front page ; )) You won't screw up this time TONEH... No original Velveeta in the hands of your 2nd half will save you this time, count on it! LOL :- D

Their point is the number of people who will simply NOT buy anything else for higher. This camera can be as revolutionary as the perfect hybrid would be if/once these crippling limits will be lifted. Now remains to see how overheating can be a real issue. There are borders, of course. But enough to limit it as they did through firmware?!! C'mon... no fools over here ;- )

I bet it will... ;- )

Truth. Technology, knowledge. Resources. Who pays don't give a damn for their reasons. We have ours our money pays. We pay for an equipment, not for their reasoning if any.

Be welcome! :- )

What a shame, Canon, what a shame... : X

I sincerely think this fits to be denounced but better to do it with the voice of the reason and its strength... ; ) Such opportunism sucks ;- )

Internet is a real mess.

They already did it in the past too.

No worries, I promise to keep it secret. No one will know it from my side. I can't say the same for the others here, I'm sorry (Cannot doesn't, but we will on their behalf, deal? ;- ) https://hackaday.com/2020/04/24/a-cr2032-battery-eliminator/

C'mon, no need to you apology : ) This is a big company, I doubt they would ever do it. They simply don't give a damn. You don't want it, don't buy it. As simple as that in their mind. And they will even address a smile to you in the end. That's the way it works.

This is not a defective product, just a crippled one, let's call it the right terminology.

It does : ) C line cameras cost much more, we've been shooting with one (C500) these days... Aside the fact Panasonic built a tank instead ; ) Once Panasonic customer, their client forever. E :- )

What extent this can work out as mod letting the camera flow as a regular capture device as any other camera, now?

I am impressed with their customer support response. Never had anything similar before... : ) Well, aside a certain Irish company on innovative accessories for filmmakers ; ) every EOSHD can trust on. An example for every manufacturer. I firmly recommend them.

It requires more than a single intervention but a full mod.

What an achievement dudes, this guy is one of us!

Man, I am proud of you, great demo (without mention the empty bottles in pandemic days... LOL : ) the customary suspects aka major manufacturers will be envious about you, count on it! Jokes aside then... (1) can we set the smoothness of the focus speed BTW? (2) Will we have that usual small green AF square/rectangle to set the subject or zone to focus as we wish or random focus is everything we can expect for? (I guess not or those buttons won't be there but I can't wait to test how handy this system can become P4K/PK6 even more attractive than they already are... & with a simple gimbal, overheatingproof! : D) (3) Can we alternate with the native touch to focus and vice versa? E :- )

No more secret perks once they were only reserved for the first 1000 early adopters. Now already solved for the first early adopters, proud as part of them. By the way, they reached over $700,000 in the first 24 hours! Only 19 units left for 18% discounted $649. A foot note as their loyal customer and my personal advice: Great support BTW :- )
