Nice. Hope something similar is planned for the R5C.

Great, now can we please have CLOG2 in the R5 and R5C?

Canon now follows Nikon's Z9 3.0 update of over 20 features. No need of continuing to bamboozle consumers with copy and paste firmware code masquerading as new hardware.

Not sure if that will ever be a reality because as far as I understand, the R5 and R5C do not have the dynamic range required for CLOG2.

Nice. Hope something similar is planned for the R5C.

Weren't most of these features already present in the R5 C?

So so amazing! If AF is improved near milc then the only thing left for this beast is to be able to make some coffee!!

So, does the eye tracking AF work at 24p? All the info I see is that it works at 60p. Or am I misreading it and it means that it works at every frame rate up to 60p?

I would like to know as well.

A few. But remembering settings. 4CH audio monitoring and focus breathing compensation would be nice.

Yes it does, I confirmed with canon on YouTube. The way they state it, seems like it’s only in slow & fast mode. It works in 24 all the way up to 120fps!! Can’t wait for next week!
