It makes sense to put the active cooling components in a separate grip. Then, if you don't plan to do anything too demanding with your camera (which in my case would be 100% of the time), you won't need to carry all that clutter around.

The more I think about it, the less I feel that Canon will announce both the R1 and R5 II at the same event. Each camera deserves its own announcement. They might be on the same day, though. I hope they announce an updated battery to go with the R5 II. My main complaint about the R5 is middling battery life when I do a lot of burst shooting.

I think it depends on how much of an upgrade each camera is over the R3 and R5/R5C. If the reality just isn't that big a deal, doing a two-fer might be the best approach. If either of them will actually blow our socks off, they really should separate them.

I’m sure it will be great when it’s dusty or raining. Pull in moisture and dust into the system. Sounds great… The battery grip / R5 in general does need a higher voltage battery to fully utilize the big white primes though. So that would be a welcome change if that was included.

It seems that most specs in the R5 II are related to videographers. Classic still photographers are no longer appreciated anymore in 2024 by most camera producers, I don't have any overheating issues (sometimes some hot pixels with a series of very long exposures) and don't need any active cooling in my camera. I have the idea that the R5 II will not be my next camera.

I'm getting that feeling, too. It'll be more complex. Likely bigger and heavier. And with nothing meaningful to offer stills shooters. (The first curtain mechanical shutter on the R5 is so good, I've never felt the need to go electronic.) The original R5 is an amazing camera for stills shooters.

Count me in on your reply. Many channels including this one highlight video capabilities more than image resolution, dynamic range, etc. I really enjoy the R5 but if Canon or Nikon indeed come out with a more photo-centric 60+ mpx full frame camera that's where I'll head, skipping the R5 mk2. When some challenge this and say just go medium format, my answer is the glass and the lack of it.

Heat's been an issue for all cameras for a long time. And with ever increasing MPs, and stacked, global sensors and AF demands; all these stress the CPUs and datapaths and the required power to process all the informations spells h-e-a-t. Some manufactures do things to minimize the heat profile which can reduce feature sets. The R5 when it first came out ran head-on into these issues, an embarrassment for Canon's lead product. These all got worked out eventually with the R5. Plus, the user can do things especially when in the studio to minimize the heat profile of a camera. But the heat issue is here to stay given the current hardware constraints.

Never, ever, had a problem with overheating in the Canon R5. And that includes shooting all day long in equatorial climates, desert climates, and 90+ degree / 90+% humidity conditions. Add this venting system, the on-board ND filter, other video-centric features . . . the R5ii would be more appropriately named the R5Cii. And the camera body almost HAS to be bigger and heavier than that of the R5.

Has anyone taken notice of how thick an R5C is? It's a full inch thicker than an R5. (Pull it up on B&H and look at the specs and photos from the various angles.) With all the new video features, it seems to me that the R5ii may have the same added thickness that the R5C already has. If that's the case, stills shooters, do you want it? And further . . . being an upgrade ALSO on the R5C, can it cost less than an R5C?

We already knew this. Didn't a canon source say that the R5 Mark II was going to be a cross between the R5 and R5C. Naturally we assumed active cooling would be part of the package. As a hybrid shooter I don't mind this but how many Photography ONLY shooters are going to be annoyed that they will be paying a higher cost for tech on a camera they will never use and have to deal with the increased weight from tech they will never need. Hopefully Canon comes out with an R52 that is photo only with basic video features.

Thanx for the update, Simon. Smart move by Canon wrt the cooling-solution. Even simple ‘externally’ vented heat-pipes without active cooling would be a massive improvement, as basic convective cooling does wonders for removing heat from electronics, vs enclosed non-vented solutions. Adding an active fan-solution in an add-on grip (with a bigger battery?) will basically give limitless recording capability, at least where thermals are concerned.

That said, I still hope for a 60+ MP stacked BSI photo centric camera with ok video, a canon/nikon size body that does not feel like a small toy (sorry Sony) and a full range of zoom lenses (sorry Fuji gfx).

So, in order to get the extra cooling you’re going to need to add the extra bulk, weight, and expense of a specialized grip that most people wouldn’t want to add. Mmm...not seeing a whole lot of innovation there. Other manufacturers probably - no, almost certainly - thought of adding some extra piece of some kind to provide more cooling but ditched it knowing very few would want to add the extra weight, bulk, and expense to get more recording time. It’s seems its appeal would be limited to a very small number of professionals.

I love the R5, however there are more and more times I find it just too big to carry on an adventure. My work asked me to record a high activity work event. The only reasonable camera I could take was the M100 and a 22mm prime. The 24 to 50 lens size is ideal, but performance is unacceptable. I could see myself with a R50 and Sigma Zoom. I think the XT50 will be my next camera purchase. My point is, the larger the R5, the more it stays at home. Changing lenses, on an R8, while hanging from a tree is not an option, that is the kind of work outing my company has. The fps race does not interest me.

I think that all of these cooling and video related items are fantastic improvements to the R5 for video shooters. My questions are more about the improvements for stills photographers who also do some occasional video clips. I have yet to see something that truly wows me relative to the current R5. I was hoping for something like frame extraction from video clips or something like that from raw video. In the absence of something more in the stills area it would seem that I could buy two R5 bodies with care packs for about the same price as the R5 II with the cooling battery grip and care pack. For stills shooting this is becoming more of a choice between multiple Canon R5 units, a single R5 II, or a Sony Alpha I. Do you have any thoughts about this announcement for stills photographers who only do occasional video?
