Coffe got a reaction from Vavid Cincent in Canon EOS R5 / R6 overheating timers, workarounds, and Magic Lantern
Well, well - actually I did test it with my R5. Firmware 1.1.0 - and guess what: it works like at charm.
Let the camera overheat in the 120fps mode. Camera gets really warm. I guess I had something like 20 minutes in total (had to erase the clips from my card again and again). Anyway, after the camera overheated I opened the battery door, blocked the little latch to make the camera think it was closed. Went into the menue, forwarded the date by one full day. Confirmed. Took the battery out, waited some 15 seconds. Put the battery back in, closed the battery door. And here it was: Camera still warm after a short pause of 2 minutes (the time it took to go through the procedure) and what do I see in the display: Full recording time, no overheating sign. LOL. Canon, You've got a loophole there. Does the camera even bother to measure zhe temperature at all?!
Say thank you to yourboylloyd on Magic Lantern Forum.

Suggestion to Canon: try a business model such as Tesla runs it: Sell product at a base price. If the buyer wants higher reach, he has to unlock it by paying for it.
So for another 500 squid you get 10 minutes more recording time.
Or 10 USD /Euro /Pounds for instant recovery.
