Why R5 Mechanical shutter shock so serious? Amost makes it useless.

If Canon has confirmed it was a faulty product when you bought it, then you are legally entitled to have it replaced, refunded etc for up to 6 years after purchase (there are no short time limitations for proven faulty goods) https://www.gov.uk/accepting-returns-and-giving-refunds
So, return it and get your money back.

Done it waiting to receive new one

He already did return it. But I have to be honest and say I have never heard of Canon saying "yes its faulty", but even if they did, and they replace a lot of stuff every year because it is a lot cheaper than testing every unit made, that doesn't address the actual images posted that clearly show ambient drag/subject motion.

I took near 200 photos by 3 lense all EFCS were ok but Mechanical blur, the camera was funny , IS working with 85 and not with 100 and 570-200, also when I was on Manual mode every time I was pressing shutter button half way ISO was increasing automatically

The R5 can easily look less sharp at 100%, because it has more pixels

The R5 pictures can look less sharp than other R5 pictures because of more pixels? I don’t follow.

I think @EricN means at 100% the 45mp R5 is going to be a much greater enlargement than the 22 mp 5DIII, and therefore as with any greater enlargement it’s going to appear softer. My original 12mp 5D was oh-so-sharp ! I really miss it so sometimes I take a trip down memory lane and reduce my 5DS files down to 12mp.

That's what I meant. Thanks Sporgon
