Canon EOS R5 Support
Completed
I am guessing this is already being worked on, but I did not see a formal feature request for it. So, please add support for Canon EOS R5. Thanks!

Kelvin (love your name, by the way!),
I guess I just don't think it's that much of a big deal. They have, in the passed, taken a few weeks to a month to update, and it's been pretty consistent. And I guess I'm also reacting to the fact that I feel C1 is so superior to Lr, love the tethering, the workflow, the results, and have been quite happy with customer service (although I do wish one could talk to them on the phone as opposed to needing to send a support ticket and wait), so I guess this just feels "normal," for lack of a better phrase.
Maybe I'm a fanboy. I apologize; didn't mean to criticize. I guess them being silent isn't a good thing, either, but I Tweeted them and they responded quite nicely, even without being detailed their response:
"Thanks for letting us know! We'e forwarded your tweet internally, so the teams aware of your interest in this camera support too. Stay updated!"
I feel like that was a pretty positive and service-oriented response. I hope I'm right. LOL

Ok we need to know if this is going to happen! It’s been weeks now. Can we please have some kind of indication if this feature is being worked on or not so we can plan ahead! It’s not like it’s some mysterious special feature, you could at least let the community know if this is planned to be supported. When is the next update likely to arrive? Days weeks, months? Please let us know and engage with us more! I’m not happy about being left in the dark after supporting capture one for so long! Thanks.

It looks time has come!

Doren,
I did some testing myself converting my Nikon Z6 raw files and that is the only reason I know about the DNG convertor. I seem to remember that they made very large files. BTW, right after all of my evaluation and testing I switched to C1. I never used adobe anything. There are a few things I would love to have in C1, but I can live without them for now. The initial editing in C1 flows quickly for me and I love the way you can use the brush to add subtle masking on a layer with the flow control. I almost never need a well defined mask now.
-
I agree. I used Lightroom for over five years, but C1, for me, blows it away. Plus I tether a lot. I don’t even think I’m really missing anything in C1 that I’d like them to add. What would you like to see?
Yeah, I might go the route of DNG conversion for now, just for funsies. Plus, Canon’s DPP is terrible. LOL

Note: It had taken 2 weeks for Capture One and Adobe Lightroom to update the raw files when the EOS R and the RP was released. I am sure they will have it we just have to be patient. I've done a photoshoot with the EOS R5 and I had used Adobe .dng converter to edit in capture one and it had done a great job so far.

I got an early version of the 1DX3 and it was the same story. It took about 3 weeks from the time I got it till the COP update. So I would assume its not too far away. I'm hoping it's soon as I would really like to get an idea of how good the still images are off my R5 by comparing like for like with my other cameras (ie COP ecosystem not the Canon software).

Capture One's position won't have suddenly changed just because of all the shouting...

Kelvin, et al.
Be aware that is is a long standing policy of Phase One not to comment on future developments nor make promises on time scales.
Right or wrong in your opinion and the opinion of others that is their choice to date.
Maybe you could ask Canon to ensure that all non-affiliated Photo editing software developers (especially those also offering full control tethering) have access to new production models of bodies and lenses well in advance of public release so that they can make the changes to their programs and files and have them available on a schedule that suits early adopters.
I note also that Canon are reported as claiming very high demand and therefore a shortage of product to satisfy the demand. In some situations that may make things more difficult for anyone trying to obtain production samples for testing and development. Unless the manufacturer can be "helpful" in that situation.

"This is the only dev board in the world where forwarding a request means "complete". You should not be marking them complete unless they are actually complete. I understand these things take a little time, but I just checked for updates and this request is not complete."
Tim,
I think you completely miss the point of a "Feature Request" forum and the way such facilities need to be manages to be meaningful.
Be that as it may the "Request", in terms of what the forum style offers, is just that. A Request. It's not a promise for action. (although in this case I think the world of photography would be amazed if Capture One was never to support a new primary flagship Canon model ... but hey, who knows. ...)
SO this thread, ,and may like it are more than a little redundant and fill Lily's day advising people that the request has been noted and forwarded to development. Along with all of the others.
So the task, such as it is - a request for something - is indeed Complete and will be considered by the development team.
Maybe if the forum allows different words to be associated with posts if could be left as "Forwarded" for public consumption.
It would make no difference to the process being followed. Indeed this type of request probably make not difference to the process and time scale of delivering what is required. With something obscure it might speed things along. With a mainstream product - I doubt it could make any difference. Unless there is a problem getting the equipment for testing. In which case better to shout at Canon?
On a positive note it's nice to know that in these troubling times there seem to be a lot of people out there with money to blow on new, relatively high end photographic hardware.
I'm sure C1 will be encouraged by that when V21 arrives.
Canon too, maybe?
Perhaps they will engage with C1 and create an option for a Capture One for Canon sub-version? If enough people ask them.
