For video&nbsp;<SPAN>I use a power bank and can pretty much use the camera for many hours shooting 4K.&nbsp; If you will shoot 8K for extended periods, consider a Vmount.&nbsp; Make sure you use the cable strain relief bracket.</SPAN></P> Mon, 26 Aug 2024 07:55:11 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camera-Accessories/Unable-to-get-batteries-for-R5-Mark-2-what-do-I-do/m-p/495983#M3219 shadowsports 2024-08-26T07:55:11Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camera-Accessories/Unable-to-get-batteries-for-R5-Mark-2-what-do-I-do/m-p/495985#M3220 <P>Thank you so much for this.</P><P>Do you know if the pre shooting can be powered using the NH battery.</P> Mon, 26 Aug 2024 08:06:49 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camera-Accessories/Unable-to-get-batteries-for-R5-Mark-2-what-do-I-do/m-p/495985#M3220 jennycg-876 2024-08-26T08:06:49Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camera-Accessories/Unable-to-get-batteries-for-R5-Mark-2-what-do-I-do/m-p/495986#M3221 <P>Thank you so much.</P> Mon, 26 Aug 2024 08:07:30 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camera-Accessories/Unable-to-get-batteries-for-R5-Mark-2-what-do-I-do/m-p/495986#M3221 jennycg-876 2024-08-26T08:07:30Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camera-Accessories/Unable-to-get-batteries-for-R5-Mark-2-what-do-I-do/m-p/495997#M3222 <P>According to the PDF manual from the Canon website, page 22 says that pre-continuous shooting is not available with LP-E6N or LP-E6NH batteries.&nbsp;</P> Mon, 26 Aug 2024 11:10:34 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Camera-Accessories/Unable-to-get-batteries-for-R5-Mark-2-what-do-I-do/m-p/495997#M3222 p4pictures 2024-08-26T11:10:34Z
