Tiltaing Camera Cage for Canon R5
The next camera system to be supported by our Tiltaing collection of camera accessories is the new Canon R5. Featuring a new mirrorless CMOS image sensor and 8K RAW / 4K 120P capabilities…

If the camera has a direct heat path to that rear plane under the LCD then they may have something. If the camera is just convective cooling (internally) to the rear plate, then maybe not so much. I did not see any record time improvement test results.
People in the field have already reported getting recording times far exceeding Canon's official "limit" warnings by doing nothing other than recording to an external recorder.
yeah but you cant record in HQ 60, 4k120, or 8k
You know, the only things setting this camera apart from its competition
There is no HQ60 mode.yeah but you cant record in HQ 60, 4k120, or 8k

this.. and also, on the ice pack solution.. we know what happens when you take out a camera on a hot day out of the camera bag that was packed at a room temperature... so.. camera temp : 23-25 Celsius, 35-50 outside.. count to 1,2,3,4,5.. your lens is all fogged up due to moisture condensation.. damn. wipe it off start shooting. it fogs up again.. rinse and repeat. so.. if you keep the camera body with ice pack below the ambient temperature your lens will be fogging up again and again...If the camera has a direct heat path to that rear plane under the LCD then they may have something.

In other words, folks are complaining because Canon's new camera can do things "only for a little while" that no one else's cameras can do for a single instant? Is that about right?
No, I don't agree with this. If this is using a peltier cooler, which there's every indication it is, they can run at a difference of around 150 def F between their hot side and cold side. So if this fan and heatsink keeps the hot side around ambient temp, that means the cold side against the camera could be well below freezing. Like you said it won't run that cold for fear of condensation, but it should have plenty of cooling capacity to soak a lot of heat off of the back of the camera. Regardless of exactly how the camera transmits heat off the sensor, having something that cold pressed against the back of the camera will probably go a very long way towards mitigating overheating.this.. and also, on the ice pack solution.. we know what happens when you take out a camera on a hot day out of the camera bag that was packed at a room temperature... so.. camera temp : 23-25 Celsius, 35-50 outside.. count to 1,2,3,4,5.. your lens is all fogged up due to moisture condensation.. damn. wipe it off start shooting. it fogs up again.. rinse and repeat. so.. if you keep the camera body with ice pack below the ambient temperature your lens will be fogging up again and again...
back of the camera (shell) is made from plastic. not the best heat conductor one would think... on another hand, i trust it would be pretty uncomfortable hand holding this contraption when you are running and gunning and there is a need for a quick video taken.. I still believe that a cooling EF to RF adaptor is a better solution.No, I don't agree with this.

No, it's not plastic. It's magnesium like most of the rest of the body. Here is a photo from the teardown Lens Rentals did on the EOS R showing that the back of that camera was magnesium, and a photo of the exposed R5 body.back of the camera (shell) is made from plastic. not the best heat conductor one would think... on another hand, i trust it would be pretty uncomfortable hand holding this contraption when you are running and gunning and there is a need for a quick video taken..

Also, I don't understand how some sort of cooling EF to RF adapter would work or even make sense. So it's just blowing air onto the sensor, along with a ton of dust? Even if you put a filter on the fan, then it's going to become clogged over time. And then you're restricted to only using old EF lenses if you want good cooling on the body?

Huh, well, you learn something new every day. I dunno, still seems like a pretty weird and questionable solution to me. And again not to mention that it would lock you into using nothing but EF glass if you wanted the added cooling.have a read
Canon Patent Application: Canon EF to RF "sensor cooling" adapter
This is a novel patent. One of the problems with a sealed camera is providing enough cooling for video. In this patent application, Canon looks at cooling the sensor from the other side from the lens mount. I am intrigued by this because it has applications for more than just video - for...www.canonnews.com

Yeah you know when you buy a car and it's advertised to be able to carry a certain load but then you find out it can do it only for 20 minutes at a time?
But if it's sunny out you can only run it for 10 minutes before you have to pull over for an hour to let it cool down.
If the purpose of the car is for a stunt in a film, 30-40 seconds is more than enough to get the shot. Several times.
