  • A surprising discovery of how I was able to get over 3 hours of continuous 4KHQ (and 8K) recording on the Canon R5. NOTE: AMBIENT ROOM TEMP was BETWEEN 80-85 F for ALL TESTS. All testing were done with 2 hours of cool down time between tests.
    DEAF DIRECTOR Custom Cinema Canon CLog3 LUTS: www.deafdirector.com/product-...
    UPDATE: According to the Atomos Website the Canon R5 WILL BE ABLE TO EXPORT 8k via the HDMI 2 connection on the camera to the ATOMOS NINJA V+. (www.atomos.com/products/ninja...) This means that using this method with the NINJA V+ should work and be effective with the R5 once Canon releases a firmware update (slated for later in 2021)

I learn so much from your videos and demonstrations. As it relates to this video, any thoughts on the new Atomos Ninja V+ and what it offers (esp when Canon release the update) for external 8k recording and whether that will be a work around to this issue? Probably your theory of having the EVF on will still produce overheating issues with external recording? Thoughts?

    • @DeafDirector
      @DeafDirector  Před 3 lety

      Thanks so much! I am very interested in testing this out with a NInja V+. In theory based on my tests, as long as R5 allows the 8K signal out of the HDMI, and you can get your hands on an 8K external recorder (like the Atomos V+) you should be able to record for upwards of 3 hours on it, because with exteranl recording you can set the EVF to shut off after 3 minutes. Now that being said, because 8K is so new I'm not quite sure what type of weird crippling that Canon may have instituted, but I am really excited to find out. Thanks so much for the comment and I hope you have an awesome day!

    Great info.... as I watched this I checked both my R5 and R6 and amazingly I had set my LCD to shut off at 1 min and EVF at 3 min in order to preserve battery life and solely monitored the image via the Ninja V. Little did I know it also inadvertently helped with overheating which explains why I haven't run into the overheating issue.

    I think this is good enough. You're now equal figure as Edison on the R5/R6 line to me. I bought them as they have many attracitve features(great color science for taking portraits for the company I work for, internal 10 bit Clog raw, 4kHQ, 8k, 4k60,4k120 etc.), which is only matched by A1 at 3k more. And panasonic is not catching up with that AF any time sooner. But I ended up found that I can only focus on shooting B-rolls with these by shooting short bursts to get jobs done. The overheating issue bothers me every night to the point I was thinking about buying a Z6II for the long interviews that I frequently do. Now this saves me big bucks from that. Obviously it has its drawbacks but I would be happy to know that all my pain would to be go through those long continuous footage and doing cuts to achieve 8k level quality for deliverying any projects. It is just some longer time sitting in front of a computer scratching hairs waiting for CPU codings compared to an impossible option previously, and I'd be happy to make that choice in a heart beat. And hour long 4k60/4k120 is definitely way way more than enough for B-roll galleries. Suddenly my R5/R6 transformed from a mere “B-roll specilist with a timed bomb strapped onto 'em", to the ultimate video tool which I'm looking at TV broadcast level cameras in my possession. Canon probably hates you for crack open the secret. But you've done pricesless findings to many owners/potential owners of the system. On my part you can only earn a sub as that is the maximum I can repay in gratitude.

      Hey Brian, here’s a wedding I shot with my R5, on a DJI RS2, using internal CFExpress and a combo of 4K60 and regular 4K24. I don’t think clients can tell the difference (added sharpening in post). Yes, HQ looks amazing, but having shot several weddings with the R5, the RS2, and a Ninja V on the rig, that all gets so heavy. I wanted to just go minimal and be able to use the control cord so I could start/stop recording straight from the RS2. czcams.com/video/WkgeEQ-vDGE/video.html

      The less work the camera has to do (CPU, GPU, or whatever), the less heat it will produce.
      As a bonus, it will also use less battery power.

    • @AaronR-C
      @AaronR-C Před 2 lety

      I went to make this comment and saw you'd beat me by two months. I work with artists to source and integrate technology for their projects. These are the kinds of considerations I deal with all the time. One has to consider *all* the tasks that a processor in a given device is being asked to do at any given time. The LCD (2,100,000 dots or 700k pixels), and EVF (5,760,000 dots or 1,920,000 pixels) are different resolutions than the image coming off the sensor *and* the image being recorded to the codec. Resampling *again* is a very processor intensive function, especially if you're running the higher resolution EVF at 120FPS. This is the same reason why recording line skipping 4K isn't as thermally intensive as HQ (resampled) 4K. I completely agree. The power used (and heat generated) by the LCD and EVF hardware themselves is certainly not the overheating culprit. It's the additional CPU load on the Digic X processor required to resample, format and output the image to either viewer.
      I'm the proud new owner of an R5, and hadn't yet delved in to these considerations but was already looking in to the Atomos Ninja V+ to boost my record times. This video has helped me considerably with my decision. Thanks so much Deaf Director, for the great content.

    Hi Bryan! I was wondering did you set your R5 to the 8K recording mode and record 4K on the Ninja? I was wondering if preventing the camera to process the downsampling internally from 8K to 4KHQ might allow less stress and heat on the processing unit and longer duration for external recordings. So the R5 set to 8K and the Ninja recording on 4K 🤔

    Just simple question.
    In my current setup, in studio
    I used to connect eos R to external monitor, and record it internally while the evf and lcd off (only use external monitor to monitor positioning)
    So in this R5 cases, is it possible to do it the same? (Record internally, external monitor)?
    While minimizing the overheating issue?
    Because im in the middle of considering to upgrade to this eos R5.

      @@DeafDirector there is a way to record internally while only using an external monitor, I did it on the past two weddings. From my experience this is the best way to shoot (except for the benefits of recording in ProRes) because you don’t have to switch to recording internally whenever shooting 4K120, keeping the settings faster to switch.

    Thanks for sharing. Really useful information. I dont usually shoot video with R5, but I do shoot long duration time lapse (onm average 2 hours and longest was 12 hours straight) with my R5. I noticed the overheat alarms regularly when I shoot more than 2 hours time lapse when I got the camera earlier on. Though the alarm is present, it does not hinder my time lapse shooting operation but it is distracting. Recently I noticed that I do not have the same overheat alarm anymore and previously I cant think of why. Today after I see your video and I remember that recently I have switched on the power saving mode which turns off the lcd and the EVF after a few minutes as I am using a longer shooting interval so keeping all function on to me is a waste of power. So now I know why the over heat alarms has gone during my time lapse shooting. Quite a useful information also if I need to shoot 4KHQ or 8K later. Thanks again.

    For a day long shoot in 8K or 4KHQ, would you recommend leaving the camera on as much as possible or turning it off in between takes? I mean at some point you say that if you turn the LCD back on it will suddenly overheat. What about say you’re having the camera on and shooting for 2 hours, then you need to change setup and turn the LCD back on to adjust settings and shoot again, what will happen?

      I discovered why my R5 overheat lamp was blinking after shooting "stills" at a wedding. Another youtuber had the same issue and contacted Canon. Canon advised, if any of the three custom video functions are tied to 8K, 4K120, 4K60, or 4KHQ, you will see the video overheat warning in the viewfinder while shooting a lot of stills. I had three of the four video settings tied on my R5. Apparently the red video start button is in "standby" mode when a custom video function is set. Canon said to clear the overheat video functions from the custom settings and the blinking overheat video lamp will not occur when shooting stills.
      I tested this by setting my R5 to 8K video and ran it until the overheat warning started . I switched from video to stills mode and the overheat warning was blinking in the viewfinder. I then cleared my three custom video functions and the overheat warning lamp went off. Hybrid and Stills R5 shooters should try this if they are seeing the overheat warning lamp.

    I want to shoot air shows in 4k HQ (or 8k if possible) recording internally. This would require 2 or 3, 5 minute clips every 30 minutes. The camera could be switched off when not recording. Will the R5 hold up during an 8 hour shoot with a total of 2 hours recorded?

    How can I control the V atoms from the camera?
    Is that if I don't have a CF EXPRESS I can't record with the camera button.
    Oh can I record without having to record in the atoms and in the cf express?

    Been extra curious about switching from my Sony a7III setup to the r5. The a7Iv has crippled video capabilities compared to the A7sIII and the A7sIII has crippled stills capabilities. None of these cameras are bad (actually they are all brilliant), but they come with compromises for hybrid shooters that value stills equally as video.
    The R5 sounds like the perfect camera on paper, but alas also has some serious issues. With that said, 45mp for stills and 4k 120p for video is so damn enticing.
    Thank you so much for doing these tests and information, you're a legend mate!

    interesting. On the macbook or imac, the element that produces most heat is the graphic card, especially when it has to feed several screens. It would be interesting to have only the LCD screen on and just the EVF off, and measure the recoding time.

  • @24framestime

    Bryan! I just got another idea ! Do you have the possibility with the R5 to change the LCD and EVF resolutions, to lower their resolution displays? If so I think that would be interesting to run a test with those on but displaying lower resolutions. I don’t know their actual resolution but it may actually be the displaying of 8K or 4K on them than may run the graphics unit of the processor hot, which would explain why when you turn them off it eventually gives you longer recording time. Would also be interesting if you have an option to dim these screens maybe?

    • @robertm3951
      @robertm3951 Před 3 lety

      Lowering the resolution does not sound very practical. Using an external monitor or external EVF would still give you a good look at what your are capturing.

    • @janoudman2695
      @janoudman2695 Před 3 lety

      You can make the screen with 'VF display format' make a little bit smaller so yes, you can make the display to use less pixels for the video, but I am sure this will not impact the power used by the screen. The framerate of the screens you can set to 'power saving', but only in photo mode. The 'screen brightness' should make some difference in the power the screens use. It is probably a negligible saving.

  • @RonHenry
    @RonHenry Před 3 lety +3

    This video shows that it really has nothing to do with heat and more to do with Canon intentionally crippling the camera. Turning off the EVF and screen is likely a combination they didn't account for in their cripple logic. Don't be surprised if this gets "fixed" in a future firmware update. Great work.

    • @DraganMedakovicPhotography
      @DraganMedakovicPhotography Před 3 lety +3

      actually processing and sending video to both evf and screen takes cpu power, you need to resize video feed in realtime to TWO different resolutions, so, yes, it makes sense that it heats up way less when you skip those steps.

  • @albertfetch3503
    @albertfetch3503 Před 2 lety

    Interesting that you posted this. I went with the R6 and have since read they’ve had a lot of trouble overheating. I was planning to pair it with a Ninja V anyways. I’m hoping the overheating with the R6 is same as what you stumbled upon. Except supposedly once the Atomos is connected to the R6 you automatically loose camera EVF/ display. If it is the display that’s the issue, maybe I’ll be able to record IPB internally as long as an external display is connected? Supposedly Portkeys supports autofocus and the files aren’t so massive for times when RAW isn’t needed.

    Hey Bryan great! Thank you so much for running these new sets of tests! They’re turned out exactly how I expected and told you I supposed they would ! Do you think this would usable in a context where you switch back to 4K24 and quickly switch your LCD back on to check and set your AF and then go back to 8K and turn the LCD off again?

    • @DeafDirector
      @DeafDirector  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks! Your questions certainly got my mind racing on the last video. I think you could probably quickly check the LCD, but it would be potentially risky. Once you run it for a long time, if you cut the LCD back on you have about 3 minutes of it being on before it overheats.

  • @robcowart
    @robcowart Před 2 lety

    I like the methodical approach to testing. I am wondering if the true source of the overheating is the extra compute needed for the OSD. The video signal is needed whether going to the external monitor or the camera display. However the signal to the Ninja V is clean, while the camera display had the OSD enabled.

  • @JaredRibic
    @JaredRibic Před 3 lety +4

    As you mentioned at 16:52 photographers having overheat issues (I'm one of them). But in my case it has nothing to do with the LCD because I prefer to use the EVF.
    Both of my EOS R5 bodies showed the *temperature warning icon* while shooting only stills, no video.
    After doing a bit of research I learned that the EVF uses more power than the LCD. That's not a typo, I didn't believe it myself until I looked up the specs. I also wonder if it could be because I have my LCD set up for maximum performance (higher refresh rate), which likely uses more power and possibly creates more heat.
    I've had the temperature warning come on in as little as 30 minutes while shooting photos indoors. This has happened on both bodies and the only way around it is to turn off the camera when not actively shooting (which is Canon's recommendation also). This solves the *temperature warning* issue but if you're connected wirelessly to your phone you'll need to reconnect every time. Really makes me wish Canon included NFC on the EOS R5 like they had on the 5D Mk4, but that's another story and I plan to make a CZcams video about that soon (my journey from the 5D Mk4 to the EOS R, to the EOS R5, and hopefully in the next month or so the EOS R3).

    • @DeafDirector
      @DeafDirector  Před 3 lety +3

      Hey Jared, I got a great tip from another subscriber about some info he got from a Canon tech. It appears that the overheat warning on the R5 during photo mode is tied to whatever video setting you have for your quick record button on the R5. Basically it is warning you if you switch to video mode you will overheat, but there is no danger in photo mode.
      Try switching your default video mode to something like standard 4K 24fps or 1080p and see if that fixes the problem. I think I'll be diving deeper in to this to see if that actually makes a difference. Let me know if that works for you. I'd love to hear what you have to say about it. Good luck out there and have fun shooting.

Did you ever do a test with internal recording on the camera to see how long you could shoot standard 4k with the EVF and LCD turned off while viewing, but not recording through an external monitor? Asking because I already have an external monitor, and would love to be able to record to the SD card slot while doing long form interviews.

  • @MDgunship
    @MDgunship Před 3 lety

    Just for grins, the screen and the EVF do not appear to get hot to the touch. I believe the actual culprit is the amount of processor load. When the EVF and the back screen are on, the internal processors are driven harder to write data to each of these displays and to either the card or external recorder. JMHO
