The camera getting hot while shooting stills is awful.
Can you specify what you mean by a "warm" day - I regularly use my R5 in temperatures of 30ºC and I'll typically shoot 500 shots in the space of 3 hours. My grip never gets hot or uncomfortably warm. The back of the camera gets warm, but never uncomfortable, and I've never had any issues shooting stills all day (mostly in short 10 fps bursts).That said, I'm troubled by the heat of my R5 for still shooting. On a warm day in a mostly shady back yard, I shot 192 still images in 16 minutes, following a 55 minute break after shooting a couple dozen images. That's 12 shots per minute.
It gets hot at the grip area. Uncomfortable enough that rotating to vertical to hold the battery grip is a relief. Enough to make one understand the concept of low-temperature burns. I shot some images with my phone using my Leupold LTO, which does not show absolute temps.
