Portable Battery Power - Canon R w/ Grip
I use an Anker PowerCore Fusion 10,000 with a thick USBC to USBC to charge a Canon R with a grip. The Anker has pass through power so it will charge when its plugged into a wall outlet, if the power cuts or its unplugged it uses its 10,000 battery. Usually I pull the R battery tray in and out slightly and switch power on/off and it starts charging via the grip. It charges quickly.
There is another newer Anker that's similar, it's a 60w with 2x USBC, white, similar shape, which incidentally will handle a Surface Pro 7 supposedly, but I havent tried it yet, I'd like to though. Either way, the PowerCore Fusion 10,000 works. It's more pleasing than the bulky external power cord, or using the small square battery chargers, thus requiring the batteries to be removed from the grip. (Of course, I have to pull the grip batterys out anyway to prevent exceptional phantom drain when not in use.)
It may not have that much purpose in the field, but it could. I don't know if it will "power the camera", perhaps. It only seems to work with exceptionally thick USBC to USBC cables and I opt for very short ones I had already. For me it is better than the bulky charger with the cords and is not much larger than the small wall chargers but has a lot more utility. Hope that makes life easier. That's a TSE-45 on the Canon R with the adapter if anyone was curious. Great walkaround lense

Hey,
Minutes ago Canon USA released more information and photographs: https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/...e/product-showcases/cameras-and-lenses/eos-r3
"Canon’s upcoming EOS R3 will feature a solid yet lightweight magnesium allow body and carry forward the integrated vertical grip similar to the 1D series cameras, emphasizing both horizontal and vertical handling for challenging shooting situations. Weather-resistance and durability will equal Canon’s top-of-the-line EOS-1D X Mark III camera. Power will be delivered by the same Canon LP-E19 battery pack that powers the EOS-1D X Mark III. And, the EOS R3 will have three primary input dials, giving familiar operation to current Canon EOS users."
"Able to autofocus in light as low as EV -7 or more2, along with up to 8 stops3 of Coordinated IS control when used with RF lenses featuring Optical Image Stabilization, the EOS R3 will deliver amazing performance even in remarkably dark areas."
"With the EOS R3, you will be able to shoot in high-quality 4K with Canon Log3 and oversampled 4K, and RAW movie internal recording. AF tracking for people, animals and motorsports will be possible while recording video as well."
"To assist with your professional or personal photo and video endeavors, the EOS R3 will have Wired LAN and 5GHz Wi-Fi4 (11ac equivalent) built-in so you have the flexibility of wired or wireless connections and the necessary support for high-speed image transfer."
"The EOS R3 will feature a multi controller to help you easily select the AF point, quickly change Menu settings, and more. And, the R3 will also be equipped with a smart controller—similar to that on the EOS-1D X Mark III —that lets you quickly shift AF point locations, or a starting point for Servo AF tracking. A Vari-angle LCD will make it easy to compose shots at virtually any angle, and will be touchscreen to enable you to access menus, change settings and more on the fly. And a new accessory shoe will provide options for data communication and power, supporting new accessories."

Strange purple artifacts on video with R5+ 24-70 RF

Hi everyone! I am 99% stills shooter, but was asked to film some video footage in a night club using my R5+ RF 24-70. I was shooting 4K IPB 25 frames per second, 1/50 shutter, used CLOG BT 709 ( now I know that there was absolutely no use to use CLOG in a nightclub, but with my severely limited video knowledge I thought that it was a good idea). In the club there were some purple lights... The result is awful... I have some clipped purple spillages on faces that kill the texture, some white fringing around them etc and absolutely NO idea why it happed so. Does anyone have an idea what ruined the footage?
I guess the example pics (print screens) and the video itself will be much more illustrative than any words
The unedited out of the camera peace of the video is attached via the link

Lens Error 60 (RF 85mm F2)

Hi All,
Just recently used my RF 85mm F2 for the third time (on my R5) and all went well on the shoot. Very impressed with the sharpness, AF accuracy and lack of aberrations.
However, when reviewing images on the back of the camera after the shoot, the lens started moving the AF motor by itself (lens cap on, continuous autofocus disabled). It then stopped moving and the camera displayed ‘Lens Error 60 - turn the camera off and on again’. This is the first time it has displayed the error and after restarting the camera it hasn’t done it again.
I wonder what could have caused the error? Has anyone else come across this behaviour with this lens?
At this stage it does seem like a one-off glitch (hopefully). Perhaps I bumped the shutter with a half press while the camera was lens down in my lap? (Unlikely).
Just curious...
Thanks guys and gals
