Canon EOS R5 Mark II firmware v1.0.1 released

#21
The Mac ones are there. As mentioned, you just have to change the dropdown to OS15. But....mine showed two OS15s listed. One showed the update, the other didn't. If you can't see it, try a different dropdown choice. Note: I was only checking for the R5 and R50, can't speak to the others.

Sorry, but usa.canon.com doesn\'t have these firmware updates listed (certainly not for the R7 at of the time of this post). So if THE BEST CANON WEBSITE IN THE WORLD doesn\'t have it, it doesn\'t exist.

I usually wait for Canon USA to get it.
With the timezone delay, firmware tends to get recalled before it gets posted there if there are major issues with that firmware.

I guess I should have expected they wouldn't add support for the new batteries to my original R, but it would have been nice to not have to carry two types of batteries around when I use it as a backup or secondary along with my R5 Mk II.

What limitations did you notice when using the LP-E6P in the EOS R?

I haven't tried. My understanding was older cameras would require a firmware update to support the LP-E6P. Is that not the case?

Your statement sounded to me like you personally tried the LP-E6P in R and found that something didn't quite work. So I was interested in having someone tell me first hand what the specific limitations are. There may be no restrictions at all. I don't have an LP-E6P, so I can't check for myself.

The restrictions in other bodies were the inability to charge them in-body and the inability to register them in the body.

I thought that directly charging the LP-E6P battery on older mirrorless models (like the R) shouldn't be a problem from the information I've come across.

"...The LP-E6P supports in-camera USB charging via the USB Power Adapter PD-E2 and PD-E1 (sold separately) on cameras that are compatible with direct charging."

UPDATE:

It seems I just came across complete and accurate information:

"For EOS R / EOS Ra / Battery Grip BG-E22, operation is equivalent to Battery Pack LP-E6 and charging via USB-C terminal is not supported."

That's what, among other things, this round of firmware updates addresses, from the R7 firmware update release notes:
1. Enables functions to be used without limitation in conjunction with the new Battery Pack LP-E6P. This makes it possible to shoot at the same continuous shooting speed as when using LP-E6NH. In-camera charging of LP-E6P is also supported.

For the R5II, this has always worked, but other R bodies need a firmware update to make the LP-E6P have the same features as an LP-E6NH.

The R can't do direct USB-C charging with the in-body port. But you can charge it with the BG-E22 battery grip's USB-C port. No firmware updates for the grip either, sadly. If the new batteries will work for shooting, but I just can't charge them, that'd be better than nothing, I suppose.

I'm on a road trip (how else are you supposed to play with your new shiny R5 Mk II?), but I guess I'll have to check with the R when I get back.

You are giving incorrect information...
The battery (LP-E6N/H) in the R can be charged directly via the USB-C PD charger without any problems. No battery grip is required.
