Here are more specifications for the Canon EOS R5
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
Not a fan of being tracked myself, but I find it very useful for those hikes in the mountain and locations hard to pinpoint on a map that I would love to find again someday.

If I hadn't already sold my Mark 4, lack of GPS might have given me pause. I use it in most of my photography, so not having it built-in is a bit of an inconvenience. But realistically, I only need it in very specific circumstances. I would definitely still prefer it built-in, but if the Bluetooth way works okay, it's not a dealbreaker. The R5 so much more than the R5- GPS or no.

It's a requirement in much scientific photography; in biology, archaeology, geography, geology, oceanography (not many landmarks out there), and many other fields, a photo may be useless without location data. Not having it in my R5 will be an annoyance, but not a deal killer for me.
And not everyone is paranoid about having people know where they are. My home address is in the telephone book, in state records freely available on-line, and in the Chinese Ministry of State Security database, thanks to their hacking the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Am I worried? Do I give a rat's knobby kneecaps? Not in the least! As for the forensic aspect, I would recommend that, if you commit a crime while carrying a GPS-enabled camera, including a smartphone, don't take a selfie at the crime scene.

How is it done, please? Does iPhone GPS data get transferred to the camera and written in EXIF, or is it necessary to upload pics via the Canon mobile app to have GPS data linked? Thanks!

I asked what they could throw in to sweeten the deal. The guy asked, whaddya want? I told him and he said yes to all of it for the R5 with 24-105 kit

8K means 16x 1080p , basicly you could crop later, but this is really interesting. Can we get inbody 16x crop zoom out R5
Zoom factors are usually specified over the linear dimensions, so FHD is 4x 'zoomed' compared to 8k.

Just saw this screen in a video. GPS device settings... I wish I could see what its options are.

Recording 8K is too much data, and would be really really hard to work with in post. I would reserve that for truly special cases, of which I don't have one right now. But recording in 1080p and having a functional digital zoom would be really useful all of the time. Even having a digital zoom while recoding in 4K would be awesome. Every prime lense becomes a zoom, and you wouldn't have to deal with the cumbersome 8K files.

The R, RP and M6II have the same menu entry. On the R and RP it's for both the GP-E2 and the bluetooth connections to the phone app, on the M6II it's just about the bluetooth connection to the phone app.

Hi,
Just curious, did you call and ask for these extra items? I am not seeing them on the website as included with purchase.
Is this the benefit of speaking to a human instead of ordering online?

I’m looking for a little clarity about the 4K recording...
I’ve seen multiple places that the 4K is recorded full frame (no crop). I’ve also seen that there is a 4K HQ which uses all the pixels and then downsamples the footage to 4K. And I’ve also seen that there is a crop mode.
Will the footage be that much better using 4K HQ as opposed to just “regular” 4K?
I’m mostly getting this camera to use 4K at 24 and 120fps. I feel like I’ve been overwhelmed with info the last two days, ha!

4K HQ is better than regular ( pixel binning ) 4K ... Regular 4K has no over heating issues. 4K HQ and 4K120FPS have over heating issues.
May be R6 is better. Nobody talks about R6 4K overheating issues. R6 has 4K HQ donwsampled from 5.5K. If there is no overheating issues, then maybe R6 is better option.
