    Stock Notice: Canon LP-E6NH batteries at Adorama

    Hi Alan, the two I bought from them were fine, perhaps I was lucky and got new stock, it appears the only cheap route away from canons prices are non OEM, but usually there are problems with the camera recognising them. Only success I've had is LP-E6N from EXpro which has a 2500mAH capacity and...

    Cheapest genuine Canon batteries I've found in the UK from Bristol Cameras at £93 inc Vat. Canon are ripping customers off in the Uk even at these prices, the price hike from the LP-E6N is outrageous

    How frequently does your R5 freeze/lock up?

    I believe its something to do with customisation set ups, but also the firmware version itself, I never had any problems within Ver 1.4, the odd lockup with 1.5 but more with 1.5.1. I wish I could reset back to 1.4 but EOS utility won't let it happen, it did from 1.5 to go back to 1.4 but not...

    How frequently does your R5 freeze/lock up?

    New lockup problem with Ver 1.5.1, Today took the R5 out with 1.5.1 update installed after having a minor problem of lockup with ver 1.5 previously. The camera was in custom mode using BBF and servo/single shot on other configurable buttons and had a problem with it locking up upon pressing AF...

    Canon EF 600mm f/4 III with Canon extender 1,4 III?

    I have the EF 600 iii and the 1.4 iii and the IQ is just great. I now use it on the R5 and quality wise is seems even better than when used on the 5dMK4, whether this is down to my ability to fine tune the AFMA I don't know. I also have the 2Xiii but found this quite soft on the 5D MK4 and...

    Flashing R5 back to 1.1.1 - advice and help please.

    Not sure if the answer is the connection between the grip and the body, I experienced the same fault with a 600mm F4 iii on the R5, and the 24-70 RF whenever I switched to portrait mode. Ensure that the grip is fully tightened against the body, This cured it for me.

    Canon Rumors becomes fully compliant

    I laboriously went through and deleted all options only to find that it made no difference it just re-appeared every time making the site unusable. I did find that if I use my VPN it got rid of the problem, but that VPN uses a European address so I don't know if it is an EU problem.

    Untangling Canon's asinine use of proprietary connectors in the AC-E6N AC power adapter

    Actually looking at the aboves data sheet the socket would be pcb mounted but third pin is a normally closed contact that opens when the plug is inserted. I have attached the data sheet if anyone wants more info on the socket and plug. Well done KLJ for all the work sorting this
