Hi Gerjanbo,

I'm sorry to hear you are seeing Err70 on your EOS R5. That error is shown when the camera is unable to write files to or read files from the memory cards. For that error we would recommend loading different memory cards in the camera, take some test images, and check to see if the same thing happens.

If this is only happening with one specific memory card that would indicate it is the cause. In that case we would recommend contacting the maker of the memory card to trouble shoot it. If the error happens with every memory card you load in the camera at that point we would recommend sending the camera in for repair.

The Canon U.S.A., Inc. online repair portal allows you to set up service in a few simple steps. The repair portal gives you the ability to set up service for multiple pieces of equipment at once, and to receive a repair estimate in the majority of cases, depending on your model and issue.

Greetings,

The latest firmware for the R5 is v1.8.1

Please ensure this is the firmware you downloaded and installed.  

Canon Support for EOS R5 | Canon U.S.A., Inc.

Once verified, please format your media in camera.

Now reset the camera's main and custom settings and retest.

If the error persists, try another card as Hazel_T recommends.  Your card should be full size, not micro or adapted if SD.

Same issue here. It's not a card issue.. I've been using the same cards since I've had the R5 with no issues and now I get Error 70 all the time after updating to 1.8.1. I've changed out to other cards and the same thing is happening. FYI does not happen with the R6.
