Now this is weird. I just verified I have the time and date set on my R5. When I look at the card (an SD type II) on my computer, the times of the files are all over the map, anyuwhere from August 31 to January 1 of next year. (The EXIF data seems to be correct.)
For example, one image shows, in my file manager's properties dialog: modified 2020-11-07 15:04:32, (this is consistent with the actual time displayed in the file manager listing), accesed 1979-12-30 17:00:00, but the EXIF says 2020:08:07 22:04:23 (which makes good sense, I was trying to photograph the milky way for the first time and making rookie mistakes).
Worse, I by default work in L+RAW. That file I just mentioned is a JPG. The corresponding Raw file shows 2020-09-04 14:03:28 (modified) and 1979-12-30 17:00:00 accessed; it only agrees with the JPG on the accessed time. There's no relationship at all btween the two files' modified times. (And my OS is too dumb to look in a CR3 for EXIF info.)
These should be getting set by the camera as it writes the files, yet something totally wonky is going on here. Given that part of my workflow is to look at the file listing in the OS to put it in a date bin, this is going to be very aggravating to me.
[edit: just verified that the first pics I took the day I got the camera have the correct dates on them in the Operating System "directory/folder" listings.]
