EOS R with Dragonframe Stop-motion upgrade

Davideo — Tue, 12 May 2020 01:23:21 GMT

I got an email today for the offer to update my R with stop-motion capabilities with Dragonframe. I want to verify if I have this upgrade done by Canon, will the HDMI output of the camera be completely unusable? Or is it still usable if I'm in video mode? I would not want to lose the ability to connect via HDMI for video use.

here's the link:

I always test links in a web search engine. I got the same result. It might be legitimate, though.

I would expect that the firmware update to re-purpose the camera for dedicated use.

Davideo,

There is a new firmware available now which incorporates a stop motion animation firmware update to the camera.
