    Quick update! I've been doing more testing and if the camera is in single point autofocus (or manual focus) instead of face/animal AF it DOES NOT OVERHEAT at all with this mod. Still have to do more tests to verify but it's great news!

      I've been curious since originally watching this video as to the long term effects of this mod on the stability of the camera. Specifically I was wondering about the large ribbon cable coming from the sensor, and if the heat from the heatsink passing so closely to it has had any physical affect on the ribbon cable, or in any other negative/unforeseen impact.
      Overall this was such a cool fix, and seemed like something Canon themselves should have addressed. I'm curious why they didn't.
      Thank you for what you do.

      So the part he fabricated out of copper by hand would actually be a rather expensive part in a 'at scale' manufacturing environment (relevant to the punched aluminum part) sinc it would require CNC or a large press die and the part is made from copper. His point about heat pipes is totally legitimate and 100% a good practical manufacturing solution. The reality, as many have pointed out, is that Canon is making engineer decisions about the product based on buisness decisions regarding higher end lines. This is ultimately costing them since it's resulting in them creating an inferior product that ultimately is loosing out to less confined manufacturers. This likely speaks to why they didn't pursue a better cooling solution since it would have resulted in a higher MSRP, or the bill if materials (BOM) cost eating into margins and thus seem like a poor buisness choice, rather than a smart product choice.
      I've looked over a lot of camera, and various other sensor teardowns and one thing I've noticed about Canon is they tend to gimp there product in software on purpose to cause stratification. That or they skip out on a relatively inexpensive component and loose a feature because it means they can make a higher end version that has sed feature. This worked just fine when Canon was the only game in town, but the reality is they're not that competitive of a product and I don't think they're worth the price. There still good imaging devices, and once you cross a particular price point they're totally legit, however that price point is moving further and further away from the consumer/prosumer budgets.
      I haven't bought any L mount glass amd still have Canon mount EF lenses but I'm unlikely to buy a Canon camera body any time soon, unless they rework there buisness strategies.

      Don't understand why they didn't make the rear shell metal and use it as a massive passive heatsink, clearly your awesome (!) prototype proof of concept is along the same line. Seems like it's marketing/product line separation artificially crippling the retail design for the good of the retail channels... The engineering team must be so frustrated with this design deficiency.

      There's 2 issues with that statement. You don't know the different thermal designs the Cannon engineers considered before settling on the final design. As Matt said in the video, it's about priorities. Engineers have to consider feedback from the bean counters and often scale back design to meet cost constraints. Also, he probably didn't do it alone. Matt isn't the first person to upgrade the cooling of their high end camera. He most likely checked out what others have done and use that as a foundation for his own project.

    So... a 10 cent piece of copper and some proper thermal paste fixes 98% of the overheating issue?!?! Can't believe Canon screwed that up. Adding this type of active cooling to a battery grip would be so easy for them to do, and like you said, sell it for $400. You should patent that piece of copper and sell it as a kit for all R5 users. I'd buy one.

      It would not surprise me to see this in an R5 II. As ridiculous as it is that Canon didn't fix this in advance, it could be pure marketing to leave some room for improvement. Because apart from the overheating problem (which really isn't that big of a deal for the vast majority of users) it doesn't seem to be much to improve here from a practical point of view. Just my two cents.

    FAQ Time! Leave any questions here and I'll update this comment with the answers :) hope you guys enjoy the vid!
    Q: Is there any room for improvement here?
    A: Absolutely! My solution is very ‘homemade’ and the copper plate could be milled to match the back of the camera and interfaced to it with thermal compound. It may be possible to get it recording in an unlimited way with just a few tweaks, not requiring an external fan.
    Q: Will you provide these in kit form? Or a service?
    A: Possibly, depending on demand.
    Q: Will the fan ruin the audio quality?
    A: It’s pretty quiet so not necessarily. If you’re filming with this in 8k you’re likely going to be using external microphones anyway (the internal one is only mono, remarkably)
    Q: How did you finance this project?
    A: The funds for my projects usually comes from the sponsors I have (Simplisafe in this case) and the kind folk who are supporting me on Patreon.
    Q: How did you get the floating camera shots?
    A: I just put it on top of a tall drinking glass and masked it out using the last frame (I was moving the glass around with my hand)
    Q: Can you spend a month without technology?
    A: Hell yeah… I love camping so would happily go for a month if I had the time.
    Q: How did you keep track of the screws?
    A: I just had a bit of paper with some double sided tape to put the screw heads on to with a little written note of where each one was from.
    Q: Why did you start making videos?
    A: I just wanted a place to log my homemade projects, honestly.
    Q: Sweater make please
    A: Lakeland!

      lots of tech companies do this, it's by no means just Canon. It's basically industry standard practice to artificially cripple your consumer products so your enterprise customers have to pay the higher ticket you set, often with a hugely higher margin.
      My favorite example being Intel's hyperthreading, unlocked CPUs, and ECC memory support, all of which cost nothing to implement, they are features by default and disabled based on which tier they are binned into based upon other factors (such as functional number of cores, and amount of voltage it takes to hit a given clock speed). Core count reductions in down step chips may actually cost money, since it does at least take some tooling and time to remove badly behaving cores rather than just leaving them there but turning them off, but we cant have i3s that can be potentially unlocked into i7s like the old AMD phenom days now can we, especially if the clock speed was also left unlocked? I finally recycled it, but I had a phenom ii x2 that had 1 more functional core that could be unlocked on a motherboard with the option.

    Coupled with the fact that it should be fairly well sealed from dust etc (its not officially IP rated I assume but I guess dust in camera = dead), they wouldn't want to risk having any openings.
