The 2025 TIPA World Awards were handed out, and Canon won a few awards in various segments. Yes, the Tipa awards are pretty much for fun, but it’s recognition anyway.

Same here. I wear glasses and the eye control AF is a useless feature on both the R1 and R5 Mk2 for me. The only way it worked reliably for me on the R3 was by using the cumbersome Eye Cup that Canon sold. The EyeCup was a pain because with it installed you could not unfold the rear LCD panel.“Even with those wearing glasses” neither the r5m2 or r1 work correctly with my glasses. It’s ok but not great at all.
I have that eyecup also but cannot reallly use it as I use my cameras in portrait orientation most of the time and the eyecup just doesn't really work well that way.Same here.

I can't get my R5II calibrated so that I can focus on the top 1/3rd of the EVF, and I don't wear (or need) glasses.“Even with those wearing glasses” neither the r5m2 or r1 work correctly with my glasses. It’s ok but not great at all.
So true but not wrong.I really despise the CIPA "awards" for several reasons.
One example:
best ff camera (pro): Sony A1mkii
best ff hybrid cam: R5mkii
best ff camera (exp.) Nikon Z6mkiii
It feels like: "we're gonna create so many categories, so that everybody wins." Kinda gives the "award" the feeling of participation trophy...
Secondly, the companies pay to enter the contest. To me, in reality, this comes across as: "we pay to get (for contractual reasons at least) one award."
So, yeah, I really don't about CIPA awards and I don't they are worth mentioning at all...
Ah, so Canon wasn't able to improve eye control AF much since the era of EOS 3. I have one, and eye AF never worked correctly with my glasses.“Even with those wearing glasses” neither the r5m2 or r1 work correctly with my glasses. It’s ok but not great at all.
