- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
Ugh, nothing of any real interest for the R6. I wish there was at least one thing that would inspire me to actually do the update.

Anyone has this error "Frame substitution recursion attempt aborting after multiple attempts on file" while importing Canon R5 8K Raw Light to Premiere Pro?

Upgraded the firmware on the R5 and the firmware on both lenses as well without any issues. I have not tried them out, but definitely will. Frankly, I am more of a stills person so the full time MF and being able to save settings were the most useful for me.

On USA.Canon cannot find firmware upgrade to 100-500. Each time I try get there I wind up with the Canon store trying to sell me another one. While it is a wonderful lens, even at the great price I got, one is enough. Anyone find a path to upgrade the 100-500 firmware?

Zebras are a video feature. I've often wondered why we don't see it available for still images but this is something I have yet to see myself. Blinkies would be the stills equivalent I guess though, unlike zebras, the threshold(s) are not adjustable.

Welcome update for both R5 and R6 and also the 1DXIII, the sign that Canon is listening, still there are missing some important and relatively easy updates that should not exist anymore, especially because some competitor cameras don't have any.
- NO more artificial 30 min. video record limit, this is ridiculous; A video should stop recording only when there is no space in the memory cards, or the battery is empty, or the infamous overheating is reached, that's it, 30 minute limit is unnecessary and limiting in many situations, no excuses here.
- Sometimes, especially with EF lenses, enabling only IBIS or just Optical IS could be better than the combined IS + IBIS, just add a menu option that let the user decide what kind of image stabilization is required, Optical, mechanical or electronic in any combination, it's not a point and shoot camera, users should be able to fine tune the camera behavior at the most fine level.
- Add audio to 120FPS recordings and let the user chose at which frame rate the video should be played, don't impose 30fps, it should also be played at native 120fps or 24fps, 60fps etc ...
- Simultaneous video recording on both cards for any video mode and in any combination, except for the obvious speed limits of the SD card, where lower bit rate simultaneous recording should be anyway always being possible, not just during 8K RAW video.
- as a bonus, continue to improve over remaining overheating issues

I agree, but it wouldn’t be onerous to overlay lfn alongside dcf. Heck even a simple text file would suffice... Maintain standards but offer user friendlInes or better still overhaul something which is a little outdated.

oh unexpected bonus.. wondered what that was and it addresses something I was puzzled as heck to achieve when I first got R5.. .I had to custom program a button to use only eye display... now I can get that button back.
there are definitely times I want to turn the back lcd off for pics, esp in quiet, dark venues, that and the power savings possibly. neat you can use it as an option to cycle by changing pressing the info button.

Are there any xmp files with the same name as well? Try to rename/move these xmp files.

what is full time electronic mf?Full time electronic MF is a great addition! Devil is in the details, and I hope it feels like a mechanical usm.
I will try it tonight

It means moving the focus ring will always change focus, seems obvious but with focus by wire it isn’t. Traditionally the manual focus ring is deactivated while the camera is trying to achieve AF and on some cameras needs a custom setting to activate MF even after focus has been achieved, like if the camera focused on the wrong part of the subject.

anyone else have trouble updating the lens firmware for rf70-200. Seems like the actual file name might be wrong... it implies its for a 24-110. r5 firmware update worked fine but the camera does not recognize the lens firmware update file on either card.
