CANON EOS R5 - FIRMWARE 1.6.0 TESTED NO MORE OVERHEATING OR VIDEO WOBBLES

Canon just released firmware 1.6.0. and it’s awesome. It turns the EOS R5 into the camera I thought I was buying two years ago. When the auto power off temp is set to High you get significantly more recording time in the video modes that caused the camera to overheat and shut down. 8k RAW, 8k Light, 4k 60, 4k HQ, 4k 120 are all usable for longer times now. I’ve been filming a lot in 4k HQ and haven’t been able to get the camera to overheat. The Canon R5 is now like a mini Canon R5 C. Obviously the R5 C is more specialized for video but the R5 is a lot more capable now. Canon also improved the Digital Movie IS when used with wide angle lenses to reduce the wobbly corners. I did a little vlog test and the results look really good. You can shoot stable video with wide angle lenses on the R5 now. Overall really happy with this firmware update but at the same time really annoyed too. These firmware changes didn’t require any hardware upgrades meaning that this firmware could have been implemented two years ago. I feel like I paid for these features when I bought the camera and have lost two years of creative use. For people who are on the fence about buying the EOS R5 these new updates really make the camera a lot more appealing.
