    Avenger 2.0 got a reaction from User in Removing internal battery resets EOS R5 overheat timer   
    They did that before. On the C100/C300/etc the backup battery is welded in place on the most inaccessible location you could imagine (requires complete disassembly) .  Took me like half a day to change that one.

    Also Tilta.....think battery eliminators.....not coolers.

    Maybe electronic design was outsourced to China and software to India 🤣

    What a mess Canon made. If they wanted to protect their cinema line, they should have just put a 5-min time limit on the 8k and 4khq modes instead of an overheat timer. That way it was at least usable as a b-cam. Now you have an unreliable piece of expensive junk you cannot trust at all.

    If you want good AF and full frame, you really only have Canon, Nikon and Sony.

    So @Andrew Reid did it soft or hard boil the eggs that were in the box underneath?

    I'd like to hear from Tilta as well as Canon.
    If my fridge doesn't cool the camera externally what does their fan do differently?
    Canon said officially: "Use an external fan to dissipate heat"
    Well I used an external fridge to dissipate heat and it made no fucking difference.

    You're better off pointing the fan at yourself to cool down from being pissed at the R5.

    To make sure the R5 can only be used as a crash cam on set. The R5 has pretty good specs for a crash cam. Use only once to record 15-min RAW video in compact form factor. No cooldown recovery needed as it will crash anyway.

    If they keep crippling their new camera's with overheating timers, the RF mount might even die before the EF does 😬

    Indeed, they kind of killed their 5D & R5 series for a lot of professionals. I know a lot of wedding photographers that will not buy it because it overheats and is not reliable enough. A lot of them do photo and video and are going/staying with Sony or Panasonic. They will certainly not buy the Cxxx series or RF lenses now.

    If they would just have limited the 8k and 4k hq recording to a fixed max time like say even 2 minutes instead of an overheating timer, it would have been usable as a b-cam.

    I am not certain that the temperature reported in EXIF is the temperature of processor.  It could be sensor temp.  The sensor temp would be good to know for noise in long duration shots.  The sensor would cool much more quickly as the processor is much deeper in the camera. Just my wild guess.

    Too late, damage is already done. How did they even manage to fuck this up? Was this a rush job? Nobody thought about adding a decent heatsink? Or even test the thing?

    Are we sure this was a ransom attack, and not just simply Canon's servers overheating and shutting down?

    Maybe they did notice the bug or the overheating too late (after production began) but decided to release it anyway.
    They were fairly quick to post those max record times before overheating. Maybe they thought they just could get away with it.
    Going to buy myself a used EOS R. Low price, no overheating and perfect B-cam for my C100.
