Oops! I wonder if any leaks will come from this. I've always wondered what is behind the total mystery that is Canon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the original report that Forbes used as the source for that article, if Canon don't pay the ransom then the hackers have created a data leak site where they will publish the data. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/canon-hit-by-maze-ransomware-attack-10tb-data-allegedly-stolen/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super8 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 The stolen data is more than a smoking gun email about the R5 overheating. What a bunch of loser hackers that do this. Don't worry they always get caught. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plucas Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Apparently you can extend the external recording life in the 4K HQ mode (30fps) if you remove any cards from within the R5: shooter, zerocool22, Emanuel and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows that the card space of the camera is one of the parts building up heat. It might be a solution for external recording. Since there is no writing to the cards, and the card door is closed in his test, that empty space without cards might help reducing the heat. Don't know... More tests need to be conducted. Canon might come up with a card door extender/cooler, hahaha. And for the prices of cfexpress cards a Ninja V recorder is really an option.

With all the overheating, the handling of the H265 codec tends to get forgotten in discussions. If that's the workflow, then the overheating isn't an issue. I wouldn't want to record more than 20 minutes of footage. Emanuel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And DpReview have already learnt of this video and are talking about using this setup for 8K video... 🤣🤣 That micro HDMI port is the weak link in that setup. shooter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides, Canons own specs have suggested output is limited to 4K at 60p. No mention of 8K output. Unless fireware adds this down the road. Will the micro port handle 8K for RAW Or ProRes recording?

Thats the problem when companies give you a camera for like 2 weeks and expect you to do a full review on all the specs. You need to own a camera to be able to figure out all the kinks.

ade towell Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Interesting development but having had a micro hdmi break on me even when clamped in a cage (fortunately only for monitor not recorder) , I wouldn't want to rely on that for recording all day, especially if you can't record internally for back up. Too many other things to worry about when shooting all day without playing Russian roulette with overheating and those shitty connections Nmccarthy and Nezza 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nezza Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 This guy neglected to mention in the video he shot at 24p, not the higher frame rates. Then he had to add an update that other people were using recorders and getting overheating. Simply not reliable, 4+ grand please!

Direct from the video descriptions, and also posted like 20 seconds in: "The Canon R5 does not seem to overheat, externally, if you don't have any cards in the camera. In this video I show (with as much proof as I can), how I'm able to record up to 4 hours in 4KHQ 30fps, 10-bit CLOG, with IBIS and DPAF all on, with no issues like the blackout or screen off issue myself and Gerald were having." I'm all for bashing the camera, but if you want to do it at least be right. Nezza 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
