EOS R5 – Firmware Version 1.3.0 Download
- Added Canon Log 3 to Canon Log settings, a log gamma curve that possesses largely the same characteristics with Canon Log 1 but with a wider dynamic range. It is also found in our professional line of cameras, the Cinema EOS Series, allowing easier post-production camera matching work between the EOS R5 with Cinema EOS cameras.
- Added Low Bitrate recording option, allowing users to shoot smaller file size footage with lower image details. This is very useful for longer recordings that do not require the best possible image quality or when storage space is a concern.
- Added 120p Full HD video recording, allowing users to have the flexibility to select the desired resolution for slow-motion content thus allowing more convenience during post-processing.

- LCD Backlight OFF option
- FTP Transfer Status Display

It will remain the hybrid with the crappiest DR.
Guess CR3 isn't reliable at all.
What a let down.
Does this mean that I can now shoot high speed + with my 100-400 ii without losing the subject?
I will try it tonight :) :)
maybe in another life :-D
Anyway, Clog 3 sounds interesting. And FHD120fps is certainly welcomed, if it doesnt overheat. (4k120 is by far the most unreliable mode for me and overheats after 4-5 minutes...). A higher framerate in FHD would have been awesome though. Processing power should be available..
But nice to see, that Canon actualy adds new features in a camera.
Yeah, just another rumor.
Will possibly hear more info in another 6 months.
By that time R5c will be announced and the Sony A7IV will be out. Dammit. I really wanted to go Canon, like this weekend. So disappointed I bought into the CR3 rating.
First off that is simply another rumor from a single youtuber. Nothing written in stone.
Second, this was CR3 which is basically fact.
"I can count the number of times this source has been wrong on one finger". Well, seems like this time it was a big
middle finger.
Third, later date could mean 2 months from now, 4 months from now, 6 months from now, or not at all. Not gonna hold my breath with the A7IV on the horizon, and who knows what else.
I do feel really bad for those who have an R6 or 1DX-3 and truly bought the rumor of it coming in this FW update.
Cheers
