Typical EOS R5 Issues Reported
- Thermal limits in 8K / 4K HQ during long takes; recovery times vary by firmware and ambient temp.
- IBIS “wobble” at wide focal lengths in handheld video.

R-Series Error Codes — Quick Hints
Code |
Meaning |
First Aid |
Err 20 |
Mechanical fault |
Power cycle; inspect shutter/IBIS; service if repeats. |
Err 30 |
Shutter issue |
Check actuation count; likely needs replacement. |
Err 40 |
Power/electrical |
Inspect battery/contacts; board diagnosis may be required. |
Err 60 |
Lens drive |
Clean contacts; test with another RF lens; check mount. |
Err 70 |
Processing error |
Reset settings; try new card; service main board if persists. |
Err 80/99 |
Image/general fault |
Stop use; run diagnostics; isolate sensor/IBIS/firmware issue. |
Pro Tips for EOS R5
- Keep firmware current; later updates improve thermal behavior in some modes.
- Use certified CFexpress Type B and fast SD UHS-II; avoid mixed slow cards in dual-record.
- For wide-angle handheld video, reduce IBIS strength or use a gimbal to avoid wobble artifacts.
- Rig responsibly: use a right-angle micro-HDMI plus cage clamp to protect the port.
- During long 8K/4K HQ takes, schedule cool-downs; avoid leaving the body idling in direct sun.
FAQ – Canon EOS R5 Repair
1. Can you address overheating in 8K / 4K HQ?
Yes. We service the thermal path, refresh pads/paste, check fan control (if installed in mods), and validate sustained capture.
2. “Card cannot be accessed” or slow buffer clear.
We repair CFexpress/SD slots, replace bent pins, and test with pro-grade media to rule out card issues.
3. IBIS wobble ruins my wide-angle footage.
We recalibrate the stabilizer and advise optimal settings; for ultra-wide, combine minimal IBIS with a gimbal.
4. ERR 70 and random lockups.
We extract logs, reflash, and service main board power/IO paths if errors persist.
5. External monitor drops signal via micro-HDMI.
Likely worn jack or stressed cable. We replace the port and add a clampable, right-angle solution to prevent repeats.
6. Turnaround and warranty?
Standard 3–5 business days. Express 2–3 hours when parts allow. Warranty 1–3 months by job type.
